The Ultimate Muff

It is a muff that is beyond compare; few people have successfully announced this muff: yes, the Ultimate Muff.

And Dr. Jake has pulled it off.

This Thursday, the Jake 'n Dave Show is transformed into the Dave Show... with a special guest. That's right, the Dave is gettin' muffed but he's not flying solo! Who's it going to be? Well... we shall see!

Otherwise, I am getting rather tired of this weather. What the heck is going on? Seriously, one day it's up in the 70s, the next day it's snowing like Idaho. Confusion is definitely the word.

In other news, I think I have recovered after last show's depressing talk of break-ups. Jake, on the other hand, I'm not too certain. He took a hard hit after that night.

Anyway, my fellow friends, best of luck with everything and get your dating up in here!

See ya Thursday.

Two months and counting...

Oh my gads — get yer weddin' bells up in here.

That's right, kids, the Dave's got EXACTLY two months until the "Jake 'n Dave Show" finally proves that its advice is actually worth something. Yesiree, on May 23, he and his will finally tie the knot (they had to borrow approximately $3 trillion from the Chinese government to pay for all the expenses, $1 trillion of which went to those engagement photos).

Even though I muff him, I'm proud that he's done well for himself.

Salutes to Dave the Rock on this premonitionary day! (Even if he does beat me by nine strokes in golf).

Spring In Ephraim, and Marsing On the Show!

With all this amazing weather, one cannot help but believe that spring has indeed reached Snow College.  Hopefully, I haven't spoken too soon.  But with all of this new weather comes new possibilities in the dating realm.  New dates.  New reasons to ask someone on a date.  Now the only thing holding one back is the how of it all.  Well, the Jake 'n Dave Show has the answer this Thursday: Professor Nick Marsing.

Professor Marsing is part of the psychology faculty here at Snow, and a few weeks ago spoke at Snow College's weekly Convocations on... you guessed it... HOW to get a date (or avoid one.)  It was indeed interesting, and Jake and I couldn't help but ask him to come on the show and share more wisdom.  As usual, Jake and I will be taking phone calls for Professor Marsing and ask your questions about dating on air.  We will definitely see what goes on in our minds during the whole "Love Game" on this week's show.  Definitely DON'T miss it!

Wow... this is odd... I haven't muffed Jake yet on this week's edition.  Uh... maybe all this spring weather has turned me into a nicer individual?  Ha... naw... Jake is still old Jake and still doesn't have a car and is still technically Amish, despite his recent upgrade to a cell phone. 

Thank you.  See you all this Thursday 8-10 PM on the KAGE!

SPRING BREAK!

Well it sure doesn't feel like spring here in Wyoming, but heck there's not school so why the devil not feel like spring? Eh eh! That's right, the Jake 'n Dave Show will be cancelled this Thursday, but don't worry we'll be back next week.

The show this last week was interesting. I actually learned a lot from it, although I suppose I don't really need to know the stuff I learned seeming how the entire show was about first dates. But man oh man, we had some GEMS. Check 'em out:

1. NO MOVIES on the dang first date (Yes... Jake caught me wanting to do that the other night on his first date... whoops.)

2. WHEN ASKING for that first date, don't get too nervous, practice, and "get in the zone" as I like to call it. This means visualizing success in the date-asking and not losing your cool.

3. AGAIN WHEN ASKING don't make it feel like a marriage proposal. A few of our female listeners expressed that they don't want to feel like this intense, romantic thing is about to happen for them; they just want to have fun.

4. ON THE DATE make sure to be a good listener and to not talk too much.

5. CRACK THOSE JOKES on the dang first date too... apparently, both genders agree that a funny first date is more relaxed and enjoyable.

This was just a taste of the gems dropped during the show. Thanks to all our listeners who called in with tons of advice and questions.

Well I hope everybody has a great Spring Break. We'll see ya next week, Thursday from 8-10 on the KAGE!

"Into the West" -- Jake's Defense for LOTR

Hello, Tolkien fans. Yesiree, I have to admit that "I'm quite ready for another adventure" in going on this new blind date. I'm sure I'll have to hold back on the whole "Lord of the Rings" thing (I've put people to sleep with my discourses), but I gotta admit, at least I don't have to hide it until the third or fourth date.

But one correction. The proper greeting for Elvish is "Mae govannen," not "Davecan'tpronounceElvishworthadang," as he so supposed.

And in defense of nerds everywhere, who is worse? A LOTR fan that dressed up for the 2003 premeire of "The Return of the King," or a Raiders fan with spikes on his shoulderpads and his face painted black and white?

Namarie.

Get your blind girl!

Well I'm not sure how many of you heard the show last week, but I admitted to hooking up my good old pal Jake on a blind date. You see, I met this girl the other day who, when I saw her, immediately the image of young Jacob "Big J" Thomas came into my mind. I was completely convinced that this woman MUST go on a date with the young Jake Thomas, and so I had a good conversation with her and convinced her that she needed to go on a blind date with my co-host, Jacob Thomas. She agreed and tuned into the show last Thursday.

Now this is where it gets funny. On air, I muffed Jake about his addiction to Lord of the Rings novels and his linguistic ability with the so-called language "Elvish." (Yes, Jake can speak it fluently.) Almost as soon as I got done making fun of Jake on air, and he shriveled into the corner muttering "That blind date chick isn't going to want to go on a date with me after that!", the phone rang and who was it but none other than Miss Anonymous herself, the girl I asked to go on a blind date with Dr. Jake. After talking a little bit, she asked me to say "Windinger" or something to Jake, which apparently means hello in Elvish. Yes, it is true, the girl I am hooking up with Jake also speaks Elvish! Can anyone say match? Oh my GADS!

And you know, that is what I love about this show; it truly does wonders. A lot of radio shows play heavy-metal rock or call you to repentance for listening to bad music, but we at the Jake 'n Dave Show simply talk about the magic that is in exsistance here at Snow College, that fiesty little fellow called Love.

Don't miss out this Thursday as we have but yet another classic Jake 'n Dave Show. As always, 8-10 PM on the KAGE. And remember, this is the place where every night... is True Badger Night!
