We catch up on Trump's rather lackluster 2009 Celebrity Apprentice. Tom Green goes home but we learn things about his testicles we'd didn't need to hear.
Also, a review of the very odd copycat of every cooking show on TV, NBC's "Chopping Block".

Chopped - it seems to lack something. I think the two-person team efforts hurt - but I do like the restaurant critic-based judging.
Thank you for your input.
With missing modesty, I think I make a great point in the Blog post about this concept of “celebrities” doing these tasks and how it’s flies in the face of the original, rather noble, premise of “The Apprentice”.
As for “Chopping Block”, I tell you, the food critic’s take on the food is, as you say, the best thing about this show.
But White has GOT to lighten up, goodness. And for sure I don’t get the couple thing at all.
Anyway, White is about 10x the lunatic Gordon ever was and has 10x the temper. We've just never really seen this and he's really mellowed since he's gotten out of the kitchen. He was also very mild during the UK Hell's Kitchen 2 series.
Marco is good on CHOPPING BLOCK— but the show itself kind of sucks. It’s like in between Top Chef and Hell’s Kitchen. I like both shows but it’s like a watered down version of both.
Big Media is the Enemy. Return the contempt they have for you, their audience, by turning them off.
Stop supporting our enemy. Turn off their propaganda.
Shun Big Media.

Uhm. So what do I do when I want to chill? Break out the short-wave and listen to unlicensed broadcasters talking about how Dick Cheney is still running the country?
Annie Duke is, for some reason, really HOT
I liked “Top Chef” on Bravo. I love to hear the chefs describe their food and the ingredients they used.
Top Chef is a top notch show, greatly under-rated.
Top Chef is the absolute best! I love the fact that all the contestants seem to actually be able to cook.
Celbrity Apprentice has boilded down to who can make the most calls to other celebrities and who can get the most donations from their friends.
Find another way to amuse yourself that does not involve hooking up a liberal propaganda IV to your idle brain.
We're in a war for our property and our way of life. You want to "chill".
