Podcast: Jordan, Jesse GO!: Episode 5 Pro Wrestling and Top Fives
In this week's Jordan Jesse GO!...We resume discussion of Del Monte Fashion Peas, Jordan's brilliant innovation in the world of whatever Del Monte Fashion Peas are.
The above cartoon is by Kyle Hatch, and I think my favorite part is the perfect New Yorker font on the tagline. We also chat with TSOYA listeners Nathan and Zach, both sophisticates from New York City, both fans of professional wrestling. They explain to us why professional wrestling is something a grown adult can and perhaps even should watch.
Also: we share some top five lists for 2006. What are yours?

Thinking out loud re: Del Monte Fashion Peas ... if one were to market them, I think it would be similar to what Wheaties cereal used to do , when they put different famous sports figures on their cereal boxes. So Del Monte could put different fashion people on the can labels. And then you'd have TV commercials that harken back to the Bruce Jenner/MaryLou Retton wheaties ads ... These commercials would be slices of the glamorous life. For example, you could have Naomi Campbell beating her assistant over the head with a cell phone, and then sitting down to a nice bowl of Del Monte Fashion Peas. Or maybe Isaac Mizrahi bitching at people and having a nervous breakdown as he's about to premier his new line at a major Paris fashion show ... but after all the drama, Isaac likes to relax with Del Monte Fashion Peas!!
Etcetera.
Just so I (and other people, I guess) have some idea, when's usually the deadline for calling in, so that it's in time for use in the next episode?
Jon -- Saturday, pretty much. We tape Sundays.
