Thursday, Aug 6 - Hell in a Handbasket

Danbury Mayor Roberto Alves joined us for another edition of "Ask the Mayor," where he discussed the proposed city charter revision, shared updates on the ongoing effort to improve Danbury's roads, and talked about what's ahead for the city. New Milford native and stand-up comedian Joe DeVito also checked in before his upcoming headlining performance at Candlewood Valley Country Club. We talked about his career, his return to Connecticut, and what fans can expect from the show. In odd news, a man and his family set a new world record by clearing a game of Hungry Hungry Hippos in less than four seconds using all four players. It's one of those records you never knew existed until someone broke it. A rider on the Goliath roller coaster at Six Flags Over Georgia had a wild experience when he was hit in the face by a shoe that flew off another passenger. Amazingly, he caught the shoe in midair and was able to return it to its owner after the ride. Even better, the entire moment was captured on camera. Charlie Sheen is getting into podcasting with a new weekly show called "Mostly Sheenius," where he'll sit down with celebrity guests for conversations and interviews. There's no official premiere date yet, and his guest lineup is still under wraps. We also talked about a new documentary revisiting one of television's strangest ideas. Back in 2006, O.J. Simpson attempted a comeback with a hidden-camera prank series called "Juiced." The documentary explores why the project was so controversial and suggests there may have been an ulterior motive behind the show's creation.
