California Boy Channels His Inner Mario Kart

ANNOUNCER - Time now for WDHA's Weird News with Michael Fuzzy Lee.

FUZZY - Today in Weird News, a minor traffic stop turns educational.

California Highway Patrol in Orville says they spotted a car that stopped oddly in the middle of an intersection.

When they instructed the driver to move, the car took off and led police on a brief chase. It finally ended in a dirt parking lot right next to an elementary school.

As troopers approached the car, they noticed that the driver was a nine-year-old boy who told them, quote, "'I'm sorry, I'm trying to get to school," end quote.

In on the phone with me now is California Boy, so kid, I have to ask, where did you learn how to drive?

CALIFORNIA BOY - Now that is one hard-hitting journalistic question.

Where do you think I learned how to drive? I play Mario Kart. I got the entire collection. I have the original Mario Kart from Super Nintendo all the way to Mario Kart Live for Nintendo Switch.

If my parents weren't such d****bags and invested in proper gaming, steering wheel, and pedals, I never would have gotten stuck at the intersection, so this is all their fault.

FUZZY - Yes, I guess it is partly their fault, among other things, but I'm surprised you wanted to go to school. A kid your age, why didn't you attempt to go to a theme park or something?

CALI BOY - A theme park? Why would I waste my time there? You walk through the door just to be groped by losers dressed as cartoon characters. If Mickey Mouse touched me, I'd kick him in the pinecones to make him scream like Minnie Mouse.

The reason I went to school was because it's sex-ed all this week. They were showing pictures of the female anatomy. I finally get to see Hooters!

If Cinderella were to show me her hooters at a theme park, then don't go.

FUZZY - Well I'm very proud of you kid. It's rare that you see someone with such a love for school and education like you do. I hope getting pulled over by the officer didn't ruin your hunger for knowledge.

CALI BOY - Well at first it was a drag getting pulled over, but he did escort me to class. I look like a badass in front of my friends. I should be in inspiration for all students.

The lengths I had to go through to see naked pictures of the female anatomy! All for educational purposes.

They should build a statue of me!

FUZZY - If it means anything to you kid, I'm very inspired by your story. Thank you for joining me today.

CALI BOY - Thanks d*****bag and good job asking those hard-hitting journalistic questions. Hopefully, I can inspire others out there too.

FUZZY - And I hope so too.

And that's DHA's Weird News.

I’ve talked about some interesting music you need to listen to before.  But it’s time for 5 More Rock Mashups you need to hear.  This comes fresh off the official release of a brand-new one.

Alanis Morissette and Joan Jett just released an official mash-up to hype up their summer tour. "Hate Myself for Loving You Oughta Know" was produced by DJ Cummerbund and it combines Jett's "I Hate Myself for Loving You" with Morissette's "You Oughta Know," plus for good measure, a tad bit of "I Love Rock 'n Roll." It’s pretty cool and had me thinking, there are so many great ones out there, that we should take a look at more.

I’ve always been intrigued by mashups.  I’m not exactly sure why, but maybe because it’s taking multiple awesome songs and putting them together for something really fun.  Or maybe it’s because I don’t know how it’s done LOL.  I know music, I play drums…..but I can’t figure out how you can tell what songs would mix together well.

It’s almost like these folks that make these know exactly what they’re doing and they hear a song before they get started and think to themselves, “Oh, that might fit together with X, Y, or Z.”

Again, I really don’t know how it’s done, but when it comes together well….it makes you chuckle and possibly even rock out.  I’m usually amazed by it and love hearing new ones.  So I figured I’d show you some cool ones that you may not have seen or heard before.

These have me thinking, maybe I’ll try to make one someday soon.  But I need to ask somebody how the hell this works hahaha.  Until I get my own worked out, here are 5 more rock mashups you need to hear!

This is the one that just came out that promotes the tour. It sounds really well done. Professional level, and it works really well! https://youtu.be/0P3shkZvO3o?si=aPjUrkKSKS-uPCZF

Like Mastadon's heaviness, but want some funky dance vocals layered over it?  Oh well you're in luck, because that's what you get here.  JT never sounded so good! https://youtu.be/wrkYwLbPg8M?si=NhXDIlwuEHAvE5pU

Can this be real?  Am I having a fever dream?  No, it's real.  And it creeps me out how well it works.  Slipknot over the hypnotic 90's anthem from the British pop group!

It's a summertime pop jam from Katy Perry with vocals from M. Shadows!  Worlds collide with pop and metal meeting.  It works and it's trippy! https://youtu.be/zgO7i40-Ce8?si=3t6OuwwZm9_JfKQb

This one is very odd.  Almost too strange.  But kind of cool how they got Jonathan Davis' vocals to fit over the music.  Worth a listen if not anything else. https://youtu.be/KzA0rJ_hVXc?si=GGYzw4N9Ydx6c_h3
