1.37?!



Gas/Oil prices are crazy, and everybody's mad about it. Ah, what can you do? Any suggestions? Boycotts? Walking?

More top 4 signs the airline you're flying on is going under. You should really watch for these.

Chantal Chamandy comes by to say hi and present Aaron, Tasso, & Suzanne with a platinum disc!

A busy show today! Are you smarter than Lenny, Popo is here, we're giving away DVD's, jeans, you name it!

We gave away some cool new jeans called "Not your daughter's jeans" you can find them at tummytuckjeans.ca

Lenny the Goalie




OK, now it's getting serious



So they're down but not out. Tasso watched quite a bit of the game, and even had some post-game analysis (!)

Lenny the intern is on the phone, he's training for this goalie thing we're doing at the Bell Centre. He'll be great in nets I'm sure. Seriously.

Today in history we have the invention of the zipper! Where would we be without it?

Miley Cyrus is in the nude, I mean news again. Aaron plays her song that of course apologizes for it.

Top 4 signs the airline you're flying with is about to fold.

You know, Tasso is a bit of a coffee-connaisseur, but Aaron made him try the stuff he made anyway, to disastrous results.

Hey Winnie is gonna be working here soon she says. Aaron didn't know, but Tasso did. I hope she never bumps into John, Aaron's new assistant - she can't stand him.

Off to the Bell Centre in a few minutes to see who can score on Lenny. You know what I mean.

Tonight's the night!



OK, so they didn't do it Saturday night, but tonight in Philly, lookout! Game 3

Tasso had his daughter's boyfriend over, and he nearly worked him to death!

By the way - Montreal's pollen count is 65! That's moderate.

Top 4 time - this one's about polygamists. "I'm free!" (old joke)

Time for everybody's favorite: are you smarter than Lenny the intern! Dan isn't so much smarter, caller two, Angela, is just as smart! (that's good)

Now it's the email joke of the day. It's from Tammy (not our Tammy)
If you got home and everything was perfect - where would you be? Someone else's house.

Producer Ed Flintstone suggested Aaron play the new Madonna single (4 minutes to save the world) which Aaron said was "slammin'"(!)

Aaron tells us a story about losing his car momentarily. And his bag. He chased the guy!

We close off with the Top 4 - Go Habs Go! See ya later.

1 down



What a game last night, did you watch?

Apparently the price of oil is gonna be so high in the next few years we're not gonna be able to drive at all. We're gonna need jet-packs powered by Tassocino soon.

The loto 6/49 is 17 million this weekend. Aaron says he'd give us each half a million each if he wins! That's about half a million more than Tasso would give us.

Happy Eastern Orthodox Easter by the way...

Karla's on the phone! She's getting a little tired of Renato's Habs fever.

An email joke today from Jean:
A grocery store manager notices a woman fondling herself in the store and tells her to stop - the woman tells him; "I'm not fondling myself, I'm trying to remember my shopping list; "a head of lettuce, rump roast, some chicken breasts and a bottle of fantastik"

The Pope called to tell us not to use the Habs prayer Aaron read yesterday. He suggested a new one:

After the season
When playoffs begin
A shut-out's a blessing
To lose is a sin
Religiously practice
Or wind up in heck
And pray that the puck
Goes deep in the net...
Go Habs Go!

Thursday, April 24, 2008



Aaron tells us about a "ticket" he got on his car, but it just turned out to be a flier promoting Bill 101.

Did you hear about the riot after the Billy Joel show? A bunch of baby-boomers demanded a group discount on their Lattes at the Starbucks on Sherbrooke street. Just kidding.

Aaron reads us an email he's a little embarrassed about - it wasn't THAT bad.

Aaron is addicted to blue Gatorade and he needs to go to rehab to kick it. Let's all wish him luck!

The Mayor is back on the phone explaining what he was doing in Haiti. Turns out he was buying Gopher wood. He's now bought a bunch of rafts to transport citizens to dry land.

Time for "are you smarter than Lenny the intern?" let's see how he does: OK, 1 for 2!

Email joke time, from Phillip

A woman asks her husband if he'd like some breakfast, he says "no thanks, this Viagra is really killing my appetite" then she offers him lunch, same thing. Finally she says; "how about dinner?" He says; "no thanks, the Viagra is really killing my appetite" so she says "well will you let me up, I'm starving"

John called to fill Aaron in on a few things. OK, a lot of things.

Hey Renato's on the phone! What a great guy, he'd be willing to go to the Habs game alone if we could only get him one ticket.

Uh oh, this Winnie vs. John thing is heating up I think. She really hates him!

Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Is that right Mr. Tasso?!



Aaron kicks things off by accusing Tasso of collecting recipes from the Gazette that he'd previously turned his nose up at.

"Not-Rod Stewart" called in to explain why he's STILL touring after all these years.

Aaron had a hard time with a driver yesterday who was looking for an address. Suzanne thinks he's "full of rage".

We go over the prizes for our enormous $125,000 giveaway, and Suzanne goes nuts over the list. Producer Ed Flintstone recorded her reactions and plays them back over some sexy music, changed the whole context of it really.

Speaking of cars - time for the top 4 concerning waiting at the license bureau.

There's an interesting study on women and pregnancy and what to eat while you conceive. Turns out cereal can ensure that you have a boy!

Email joke time, today from Maria:
It was the last day on the job for George the mailman, everybody on his route gave him gifts until the last woman came to the door, took him inside and made love to him and gave him breakfast. When he asked her why, she told him; "I told my husband it was your last day, and he said "screw him and give him a dollar"

Popo has the English word of the day; "Luminary" she doesn't quite get it though.

Can you believe we had the one and only Billy Joel on the phone? What a great guy to call at that time in the morning. He was in a great mood as well, he even sang a medley for us.

Once again time for "Are you smarter than Lenny the Intern" Paz is our winner! He's pretty smart that Lenny guy!

See you tomorrow!

Tuesday, April 22, 2008

They did it!



The Habs do it 5 - 0!

Too bad about the riots, but we're all pretty happy about the big win last night! Tasso owes Aaron 10$ but he's letting it ride on the next series. Suzanne will hold the money "in escrow" until then.

"Totally rioting"

Top 4 things overheard at last night's game. PLUS we have a "Bruins just bit the dust" song. Habs fever!

Aaron's "Aunt" Marlene is back on the phone, somebody else called her. We think. Barry White. Isn't he dead or something?

A guy gets home late from a poker game and find his wife at the door with a rolling pin. He tells her; "bad news honey, I lost you in the game"
"How did you manage that?" says the wife?
"It wasn't easy, I had to fold with a royal flush"
(Thanks Cynthia)

Time for are you smarter than Lenny the intern. Our first caller was!

Janet is here from Team in Training. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's of Canada's Team In Training® is the world's largest endurance sports training program. The program provides training to run or walk marathons and half marathons or participate in triathlons and century (100-mile) bike rides. Since 1988, more than 360,000 volunteer participants have helped raise more than $850 million.

Check them out here! teamintraining.ca

Lenny the intern is on the line with a few people who are lined up for the NEXT Habs series. They're already excited.

The Mayor is still working on his ark, but it's not going so great. He's had a few setbacks, but he should be set. By August.

Top 4 once again and we're outta here. See ya!

Monday, April 21, 2008

Go Habs Go?


Tasso's got 10$ on the Bruins, and Aaron has 10$ on Montreal. Cross your fingers!

The Habs’ Prayer
Our Father Who Art In Rink,
Hockey Be Thy Name
Thy Will Be Done, The Cup Be Won
On Ice, As Well As In The Stands
Give Us This Day, Our Hockey Sticks
And Forgive Us Our Penalties
As We Forgive Those Who Cross-Check Against Us Lead Us Not Into Elimination But Deliver Us To Victory In The Name Of The Fans And Thy Holy Sport Amen

GO HABS GO!

Aaron had a nice Seder (or two)for Passover this weekend.

Everybody had a Passover story, especially Suzanne (peanut butter?)

Top 4 time! Potential names for a Microsoft, Yahoo, Google merger. GooYah!

Big hello to Peter listening in Hong Kong, where it's 12 hours ahead.

Fabio called Aaron's phone looking for Suzanne (!)you can get your own message from him, just go to fabiofone.com.

Finally a "SR" email joke, those ones are the best:
Three guys are sitting in a bar. The first one says; "when it comes to making love, my wife's like a gourmet; she makes everything perfect"
The second guy says; "my wife's like an Italian restaurant - she gives more and more and more"
The third guy says; "my wife does it cafeteria style"
"How's that?" the other two ask.
"You have to help yourself"
(Thanks Kryska)

Old friend Kim from gym calls for Aaron. Remember her? She's a little wound up!

We play a round of "Are you smarter than Lenny the intern?" and nobody is smarter than him today, Lenny was three for three!

Aaron's "aunt" Marlene called to let us know that Fabio called her AS WELL. Terrible.

Winnie calls to close things off, and to cause a bit of trouble as usual.

Go Habs Go! See ya later...

Friday, April 18, 2008

We're still on the bandwagon



We're all a little in shock after last night's game, but we still believe they're gonna do it.

Aaron STILL can't find a picnic table. He found one, but it had too many pieces to put together, so he didn't buy it.

Lenny the intern is on his way back to Boston today after the show. He had a big phony report from the "border" last game.

Top 4 time, some Pope jokes! (is Aaron in trouble?)

It's time for some "Are you smarter than Lenny the intern" let's see!

We let out a BIG surprise for our Mariah Carey winner - she's going to see her in NYC!!!

Speaking of the Habs bandwagon, we even had a song ready for the big win last night "The Bruins just bit the dust" it's OK, we'll play it after the next one.

Time for some Barry Metal-O! Copacabana today.

The Ladies Man calls in for tickets too, and also Winnie - not for Barry, just to upset Aaron...

Thursday, April 17, 2008

Here comes the sun



It's gonna be a great day!

Big surprise announcement today, a pair of Canadiens tickets for tonights game!

Where would you buy a picnic table? Aaron's looking for one, and he's having a hard time.

We start our secret seats giveaway for the tickets - gotta guess the section, the row, and the seat.

More top 4 fake gang books signs (do you follow?)

We play a new country song, that's also kind of a rock song, by Kid Rock. Not bad!

The Mayor is on the phone, telling us about his latest plan to save the city. He's building an arc to save all Montrealers from flooding. What a guy.

We play today's Donna Summer song "On the Radio", plus we play an interview clip.

Still guessing our Habs tickets 2 out of 3 still.

More Barry Metal-O - this time it's "I write the songs"

Finally got a Habs winner! Go Habs Go!

Wednesday, April 16, 2008

1-0!


The Habs make an awesome 1-0 comeback and everybody is thrilled!

We play a little commercial about Bill Cosby's rap album that's coming out! (OK, not really)

Lenny is back from Boston. He had a pretty wild trip. But he only got to listen to the game on the radio. In Boston.

Top 4 time - another fake book, another great list.

Winnie has a new client, Suzanne! She had an opening.

Are you smarter than Lenny? Dale, our first contestant is just as smart it turns out.

Email joke (good one!) and then a little bit of Donna Summer (Last Dance) plus another interview clip, she sounded different today.

It's so nice out this week, Tasso's threatening to wear shorts to work!

Time for some more Barry Metal-O! Can you guess the song?

Top 4 time, and we're outta here!

Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Dude, where's my car?



We've lost our status as the car-stealing capital of the country. We're no longer #1. The PM was in Winnipeg yesterday to lay down some tough new rules.

Top 4 protester complaints! Those guys are out of their minds.

Aaron watched the Bachelor last night "by accident" sure, sure.

We play a new game called "Are you smarter than Lenny the intern?" It's fun so far, got our first winner!

Time for our Donna Summer song of the day. Today we have a clip of an interview with her. Kinda. Suzanne knew a lot of the lyrics as well!

Email joke time, with a new theme!

We're giving away Barry Manilow tickets, but in a weird way, with some "Barry Metal-O" songs!

We close off with another Habs fight song!

Go Habs Go! See ya at the game!

Monday, April 14, 2008

Spring???


We're all excited that the weather is getting better and it's almost Bbq time!

Aaron got into a little trouble with a crazy driver over the weekend. She kinda yelled at him.

Aaron had the "Perfect sports day" watching – golf, hockey games. Tasso chilled out in his PJ's and Suzanne was at the ladies weekend.

Did you hear about the study that says good looking people are happy? Um, are you surprised?

Barry Manilow is coming to town soon, and we've got tickets. All this week we'll be mangling, I mean playing some Barry songs for you to recognize.

Aaron's new assistant John calls to give him the latest, the guy is super-efficient!

Not too long after that, Winnie calls to not talk to Aaron.

Suzanne had a great weekend with all the Q92 ladies and tells us a little more about it.

We had our two first qualifiers for the big $125,000 give away - lots more to come, so sign up at q92fm.com for Q-Rewards!

Friday, April 11, 2008

It's Friday



Big win for the Habs last night, and everybody watched, and I mean everybody (Tasso too!)

A listener sent us this prayer to say before every game


The Habs’ Prayer

Our Father Who Art In Rink,
Hockey Be Thy Name
Thy Will Be Done, The Cup Be Won
On Ice, As Well As In The Stands
Give Us This Day, Our Hockey Sticks
And Forgive Us Our Penalties
As We Forgive Those Who Cross-Check Against Us Lead Us Not Into Elimination But Deliver Us To Victory In The Name Of The Fans And Thy Holy Sport Amen

Aaron played us a recording of someone ordering pizza in the future, you can listen here: http://aclu.org/pizza/images/screen.swf

We were also visited by the mayor this morning, he's taking some heat for telling the firefighters at station 5 to take down their Canadiens artwork on the firehouse doors. He just doesn't get it.

Now that Winnie's no longer employed by Aaron, she's not talking to him. She told Tasso that he should tell his new assistant "John" to tell him that.

Thursday, April 10, 2008

Go Habs Go!




Tasso's not here yet, he's getting some physio on his new Bionic knee.

Did you watch Idol Gives Back? We all saw a bit of it, but it went on for 2 1/2 hours!

Hey Tasso's here! Feeling a little better.

Aaron has a new assistant, can you imagine? Seems like he really got sick of Winnie's supposed attitude. John sounds pretty efficient, maybe a little too much so?

Did you hear about the Montreal Cooks cookbook? It's got recipes from some of the best places in the city. All the proceeds go to the Women's Oncology unit and the MUHC.

Now Winnie's on the phone, she's not too happy about this John thing.

Another Habs Song Heard On Aaron and Tasso

Here's another viral video that Aaron, Tasso and Suzanne played...enjoy the "25 feels like 93 Habs Tribute"!

Go Habs! They Made Us Believers

Click here to replay the audio for "They Made Us Believers" from the Aaron Tasso & Suzanne morning show (as performed by Willy Nilly) (note: audio file is large and may take a minute to fully load)

They Made Us Believers

We thought Stanley Cups were just a memory
Meant for other teams but not for us
Never make the playoffs
Kinda like the Leafs
We haven't won a cup since '93

But now we're in first place, they made us believers!
We can almost taste, a Stanley Cup win
We're #1, they made us believers
We got the fever, go Habs go!

No one thought the Habs would make it to the top
Thought that we'd be playing golf in May
No one had the spirit
Thought we'd get outplayed
Now we're busy planning our parade!

Cuz now we're in first place, they made us believers!
We can almost taste, a Stanley Cup win
We're number 1, they made us believers
We got the fever, go Habs go!

Enjoy!! And Go Habs! Leave your comments supporting the Habs below!

So you think you can watch this junk?


We're talking reality TV, how much can you stand? The gang doesn't like a lot of the shows, and Aaron points out that right now FOX is the #1 network with 9 of them!

"Herbolody"

Aaron reads us a listener email from someone who wants to help him, but there may be a typo in her letter. Is it "Herbolody" or "Herbology"? We never really get to the subject of the letter.

Time for the Mariah Carey challenge, how many do you think you could name? There are 18 #1 songs and Selena GOT THEM ALL!

Alphonso Gagliano calls Aaron to ask him about his sick days last week, it seems he had to submit some paperwork.

Aaron played us a song from a Montreal artist named Annakin Slayd. He's behind the Habs all the way, the song's called "25 feels like '93"

Tasso has a new dog named "Candy" and she has no vocal chords. Mrs. Patsikakis rescued her with the help of Animatch.

Winnie used Aaron's car to run a few errands and it broke down. She left it in the Cote de Liesse circle, she'll call the tow-truck. Eventually.

We close off with the Willy Nilly hockey song, "They made us believers" to close. See ya!

Tuesday, April 8, 2008

Half empty/Half full?



We start the day talking about Canadian Scotch, one of Tasso's area of expertise by the way.

All of a sudden we're talking mud baths and heated streets (how does that happen exactly?)

Pascal from France called us to let us know that there IS in fact a smoking ban in effect over there.

Time for a listener email, it's been a while!

Aaron got in trouble with his mom for going to work even though he's sick. Tough love!

More of that top 4 list we did yesterday, you know, the one about the woman who stayed in the bathroom for two years. Long story.

Renato calls to tell us a story about his dentist, who he calls "dentist". The guy's a scam artist!

Winnie wants to play the Mariah Carey challenge thingy we're doing tomorrow, so Aaron gives her a chance. She got a couple, but that's it.

Monday, April 7, 2008

Tasso is back, and that's hot


So Tasso got his knee done, he's still not feeling the benefits of surgery yet, but we're sure he will soon. Usually Bionics work right away...

Aaron's still feeling kinda crummy, but he's getting better, slowly.

M-A-M-A

Aaron plays us a song about the guy who's having a baby (!) or is he a girl? I dunno.

We get to hear Lenny's interview with Paris Hilton. He told us how sweet she was to him, so much so that he wants her to dump her boyfriend, move to Montreal, and marry him. Well, he'd like to go out with her anyway.

A new song for Tasso's Bionic knee, he jumped over the CN Tower!

Sunday, April 6, 2008

Lenny goes to Paris!



Tune in for the details Monday morning with Aaron, Tasso, and Suzanne! Sonia Benezra will give you her take on the Live Drive show!

Friday, April 4, 2008

Feeling better!


No Tasso today, but we didn't really expect him. Aaron's feeling a bit better. For now.

Aaron would have liked his daughters to have trained to be professional golfers; it's a pretty good gig.
We're calling Tasso later, he's probably feeling a bit better by now.

Did you hear about pizza.com? A guy registered the name for 20 bucks and just sold it for over 2 million.

Paris Hilton is coming to town on Saturday, we're sending Lenny (who else?) to go and interview her. Lenny came on air to give us a few sample questions of what he plans to ask her. Luckily he's got some time to write more questions.

Country music Thursday has been moved to Friday, hopefully next week it'll get moved to Saturday.

Winnie called to get Aaron to give Tasso a message for her about Max. She doesn't want to bother him while he's home, so she'll let Aaron do it.

Have a great weekend!

Thursday, April 3, 2008

Is anybody OK?


Aaron is back and better than ever. OK, not better than ever, actually maybe 50% better. The important thing is he's back. Tasso isn't here though, he had his knee operation yesterday on his "meniscus", hopefully he'll be here soon with a new bionic knee!

We're back into our TV theme contest, with two more pretty easy ones today, and a loud theme.

Did you know that Mariah Carey is now the #2 selling artist of all time? She beat Elvis with #1 songs, and she's only 2 hits behind the Beatles!

Popo calls in with today's English word of the day. I don't know what kind of dictionary she has, but it seems to have some pretty cool words in it.

Good what's this question. Do you have any???

Winnie calls cuz she's really worried. About Tasso.

Wednesday, April 2, 2008

Day three: STILL sick



Aaron's still out, but he called today to yell at Tasso for telling all of their mutual friends to tell him to stay home. He'll be back tomorrow we're all pretty sure, but you'll have to tune in to find out!

Tuesday, April 1, 2008

Day two: still sick



Aaron's STILL out! We're holding it together though. We're still giving away our Alicia Keys tickets, TV Trivia, you name it. Tasso's like a substitute teacher, so every now and then we throw a spit-ball at him.
