Andrew Dice Clay joins the I-95 Morning Show ahead of his big show at the Tarrytown Music Hall on Saturday, May 2nd. Dice talks about love, infidelity, his friendship with Rick Rubin, and what those early years in show business were really like.

In local news, Connecticut is at the forefront of new burial alternatives—so who’s signing up for water cremation? Not Ethan, Lou & Dave, but it did spark a hilarious (and slightly unhinged) conversation about death and religion.

During Trash Talk, the guys broke down a wild story out of New Fairfield, where a couple is facing animal cruelty charges after authorities say they found 89 cats on their property. An etiquette expert says the Irish goodbye might actually be a good thing, and in Florida, police tracked down a fleeing suspect on paddleboards after he tried to escape by jumping into a river.

Roberto Alves joins the show to talk about the Party Depot lawsuit, private roads in Danbury, and what it’s like being a mayor in today’s political climate.

Ahead of his big show at the Tarrytown Music Hall on Saturday, May 2nd, Andrew Dice Clay is back on the I-95 Morning Show. Dice caught up with Lou & Dave to talk about love, infidelity, working with Steve Guttenberg, his friendship with Rick Rubin, and what those early, lean years in show business were really like.

Ethan says a new hot oil pizza spot is coming to Connecticut. Lou dug up a clip from a reality show where a woman repeatedly tries—and fails—to say the word “ethnicity.” A deaf woman was reportedly removed from a Frontier flight for not following instructions.

The guys also break down a bizarre story involving a so-called “felonious pickle attack,” where a woman allegedly went after her significant other. Meanwhile, a guy in Wisconsin was arrested after police say he exposed himself to multiple people at a laundromat.

Then things get a little conspiracy-heavy: was Pokémon Go actually some kind of government-level data operation designed to map the world?

It’s also National Sloppy Joe Day, because of course it is. Chaos broke out during Spring Break, although police say early reports may not have been entirely accurate. And back here in Connecticut, there’s a new bill being discussed that could bring more speed cameras to the state.

The boys kick off the St. Patrick’s Day show with some stand-up from Irish comedian and friend of the show, Lenny Clarke. Later on, we hear bits from Greg Fitzsimmons, Megan Gailey, and Jim Gaffigan. Dave starts grilling Lou about his Irish roots, and the explanation does not disappoint—it’s actually pretty funny.

At one point, the crew dives into a story about Connecticut possibly increasing THC limits in drinks and flower to keep people from heading over the border to Massachusetts. Things get weird when a bear crashes a live TV report about—you guessed it—bear attacks.

Dave earns his first-ever Sandy Clam Alert after going off on Ethan and Lou over A.I., and it gets heated. The guys keep the St. Patrick’s Day vibe going with more stand-up from Irish comedians sprinkled throughout the show.

Then there’s the story of a guy heading to jail who somehow made things worse for himself when a scanner picked up a foreign object… inside his body. Turns out, it was a full thermos. No word on what was in it, but let’s all agree—that’s not how you want to enter prison.

And to wrap it up, Dave casually mentions his mom let him start driving at 11 years old, which immediately opens the floodgates. Listeners start chiming in with their own stories about being way too young behind the wheel.

The boys kick things off talking about a brand-new “dirty soda” spot opening up in Connecticut, but, true to form, they can’t get through the conversation without talking over each other—until Lou finally steps in to straighten things out.

Ethan then dives into a painfully detailed recount of his weekend getaway, which he insists was exciting—but the crew quickly realizes it might be the most boring vacation story ever told.

Of course, no episode would be complete without breaking down the winners and losers from the Oscars, with plenty of back-and-forth debate about who deserved the spotlight and who got snubbed.

Meanwhile, Mr. Mark, aka “The Cracker Barrel Man,” makes a triumphant return with his signature reminder that you can, yes, technically claim strangers at Cracker Barrel.

In celebrity news, DJ Tanner herself—Candace Cameron Bure from Full House—shares a shocking story from years ago when she accidentally ended up at an underground Hollywood sex party. The tale has the crew reacting in equal parts disbelief and laughter.

On the national security front, one U.S. government official claims that Russians are targeting elite American operatives with what’s being called “The Havana Syndrome,” raising serious questions about espionage and safety.

The episode also dips into some bizarre internet rabbit holes, including a wild Titanic conspiracy that one guy online swears will make you question everything you thought you knew about the infamous ship.

And, rounding things out with a little science-meets-lazy-logic, Yale University released the results of a new study on alcohol—one that Lou and Dave joke they could have easily done themselves for about $40.

It’s a whirlwind episode, covering everything from soda shops to submarines, Hollywood mishaps to government conspiracies, all in the signature chaotic style the crew does best.

Lou admits on the show that he’s developed a bit of a crush on WNBA star Sophie Cunningham. The guys spend some time breaking down her game, her personality, and why Lou suddenly seems very interested in following women’s basketball a little more closely this season.

Closer to home, there were two significant drug busts in Danbury as authorities continue cracking down on vape and smoke shops suspected of selling illegal THC products. Local and state agencies have been stepping up enforcement lately, and the latest raids show that the state of Connecticut is clearly taking the issue seriously. The conversation turns into a broader discussion about how these shops operate and why regulators have been putting them under the microscope.

In entertainment news, the The Pussycat Dolls are heading to Connecticut for a performance at Mohegan Sun. The group was huge in the 2000s, and the guys talk about the nostalgia factor of seeing acts like that return to the stage years later.

Then things take a weird turn when the crew discusses a scientific study suggesting that “old person smell” is actually a real thing. Researchers say the scent is caused by natural chemical changes in the body as people age, which leads to a surprisingly deep conversation about the strange things science decides to study.

And finally, the guys wrap up the segment with a headline from the New York Post that had them laughing. The paper recently published the results of a study claiming to reveal which states in the U.S. have men with the biggest… let’s just say “measurements.” Naturally, the crew spends a few minutes wondering how exactly someone even conducts a study like that and whether anyone involved is really being honest.

Lou mentions on the show that he’ll be performing stand-up comedy at Chuck’s Steakhouse this April. If you’ve never been, Chuck’s has a long reputation in the area for great food and a fun atmosphere, so it should be a pretty interesting setting for a comedy night. Lou promises the jokes will be fresh, the stories will probably be questionable, and there’s a decent chance someone in the room will end up being part of the act whether they planned on it or not.

The guys also talk about a brand-new wellness trend that sounds like it was invented as a joke but apparently isn’t: snake yoga. Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like. People are doing yoga poses while actual snakes slither around the room — and sometimes right on top of them. For people who already find regular yoga stressful enough, adding reptiles into the mix feels like an unnecessary escalation.

That conversation somehow sends the boys down memory lane, reminiscing about the old days of “cougar hunting” at Teddy’s in Danbury. Not the animal — the social scene kind. Let’s just say Teddy’s had a reputation back in the day, and the stories from those nights are still good for a laugh years later.

In celebrity news, pop star Katy Perry recently lost a legal battle to someone named Katie Perry. Yes, the spelling is slightly different, but it was enough to create a real court fight over the name. It’s one of those situations where you almost feel bad for the person who had the name first but suddenly had to compete with a global superstar for it.

And finally, Jeff Probst decided to show off a hidden talent on the latest episode of Survivor — he rapped. If you’re wondering how that went, imagine exactly what you think it sounded like. The moment quickly made the rounds online because it was every bit as awkward and cringeworthy as fans would expect from the longtime host stepping into the rap game for a few seconds.

The boys kicked things off by reminiscing about their favorite episodes of The Twilight Zone, which quickly turned into a fun trip down memory lane. Everyone had their own pick, from the creepy classics to the episodes with the big twist endings that still stick with you years later. It didn’t take long before the conversation turned into a debate about which episodes were the most iconic and which ones still hold up today.

From there, the conversation shifted to college basketball. Storrs, Connecticut was recently ranked as the seventh-best city in the country for college basketball fans, according to a new study, but the real headline might be who came in at number one. The study put Los Angeles at the top of the list, and Lou has some serious issues with that conclusion. Sure, UCLA has a legendary history, but calling LA a better college basketball city than Storrs is a tough sell when UConn fans practically live and breathe the sport year-round.

Meanwhile, Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont is floating an idea that a lot of drivers would probably welcome right now. The governor says he’d like to suspend the state’s gas tax for a month in an effort to give residents a little relief at the pump. With gas prices always seeming to bounce around, even a short break from the tax could help people save a few dollars.

In more local news, Martha Stewart is expanding her culinary empire into Connecticut. Her new restaurant is getting ready to open at Foxwoods Resort Casino, adding another high-profile dining option to the property.

Then there’s one of those stories that sounds completely made up but somehow isn’t. A woman claims she was injured by Donny Osmond’s balls during one of his shows. Yes, you read that correctly. The details are exactly as strange as they sound.

The guys also spent some time debating tipping culture, which is one of those topics that always sparks strong opinions. They talked about when tipping is appropriate, when it might be getting out of hand, and what it would actually take for them to leave a tip under the now-standard 20 percent.

Lou also went on a bit of a rant about life coaches and self-proclaimed gurus, questioning why so many people seem eager to take advice from someone who may not actually have their life together either.

And finally, in one of the more random facts of the day, the crew learned that cow gallbladders are surprisingly valuable, which was news to pretty much everyone in the room.

On TV Talk Tuesday, the boys ran through a handful of the latest shows they’ve been watching and had some thoughts. The conversation covered The Madison on Paramount+, Paradise on Hulu, Rooster on HBO, and Vladimir on Netflix. As usual, there were mixed reviews, a few strong opinions, and probably at least one show that somebody else on the panel hasn’t started yet but now feels pressured to watch.

In local entertainment news, Ice Cube has been announced as one of the headlining acts for this year’s Big E. The massive New England fair always pulls in some big names for its concert lineup, and Cube joining the schedule should definitely get a lot of attention from fans planning a trip to West Springfield later this year.

Meanwhile, a man from Trumbull, Connecticut is facing some serious accusations after authorities say he managed to scam Amazon out of about $3 million. Details about the alleged scheme are still unfolding, but if the accusations hold up, it’s one of those stories that makes you wonder how someone even pulls something like that off in the first place.

Air travel also provided one of those “only on a plane” moments recently. A woman was reportedly kicked off an American Airlines flight headed to Fort Lauderdale after causing a scene with the flight attendants. According to reports, the issue started when the crew asked her to stop playing videos on her phone without headphones. Instead of simply putting on a pair of earbuds or turning the volume down, the situation escalated into shouting, and she was eventually removed from the flight.

And finally, in one of the stranger stories floating around, a food stand reported that it somehow lost about 600 units of onion dip in a single day. Whether it was a massive run of hungry customers or something a little more mysterious, that’s a lot of dip to disappear in such a short amount of time.

People from neighboring states are starting to figure out that Connecticut’s bottle deposit program can actually be worth the trip. With the state now offering 10 cents per can or bottle, some folks are crossing state lines to cash in. Redemption centers across the Nutmeg State have been seeing an increase in people returning empties, and for anyone who’s been collecting cans for a while, those dimes can add up pretty quickly.

Speaking of Connecticut, the state is also getting some positive national attention. According to a new study from WalletHub, Connecticut ranks among the best states in the country for women to thrive. The study looked at things like income levels, healthcare access, and workplace opportunities to determine where women have the best chance to succeed.

Meanwhile, lawmakers in Connecticut are trying to tackle another issue that’s been a growing concern for parents and teachers: cell phone use in schools. Officials are exploring ways to limit or regulate phone use during the school day in an effort to cut down on distractions and help students stay focused in the classroom.

Not everything making headlines lately is serious, though. A video that’s been circulating online shows an Italian man being forced to eat at Olive Garden, and the internet can’t seem to get enough of it. The clip has gone viral, with people joking about the culture clash between authentic Italian cuisine and the American chain restaurant version.

And finally, down in Georgia, a sheriff from the Atlanta area made headlines for all the wrong reasons. He was arrested for driving under the influence, and according to reports, he told officers he had been drinking Four Loko since 6 a.m. Needless to say, that explanation didn’t help his case.
