The Paul and Young Ron Morning Show were visiting with LITTLE STEVEN of the E-Street Band on the radio today..Trying to figure out why they were not in Miami on the next Tour.  Little Steven mentioned they were not sure what to do after the devastating loss of Clarence Clemons and his amazing Sax playing.  Paul Castronovo mentioned that ALTO REED from the Bob Seger Band was amazing and could help if they went in that direction.  That is when Alto called in to the show.  Paul and Young Ron introduced them and they talked about their love of Clarence, rock and roll...and the thought of having Alto play on some of the shows.   Here the legends talk HERE

As the Northwest finds itself in the grip of the worst snowstorm in years, WOLF-Bitstud Seattle FITZ used the six to eight inches of white stuff as an excuse to see how little clothing his "producer" <a term which has nothing to do with this bit!> stuntguy RANDY THE BISCUIT would agree to wear while making a snowangel. You can still see shorts though!!

ATLANTA The cold weather didn’t stop Atlanta Santa Speedo Run participants this weekend as they bared it all and raised $125,000 for Bert’s Big Adventure. An annual fundraiser that came to Atlanta in 2009 after success in Boston, the Atlanta Santa Speedo Run is comprised of a 1.5 mile fun run and social event that raises funds for those less fortunate through the support of local charitable service organizations. BERTS BIG ADVENTURE was selected as the beneficiary this year, and the team behind the Atlanta-based non-profit organization didn’t simply cheer from the sidelines – they too stripped down to their skivvies and joined 250 Speedo-clad runners. Even BERT WEISS, the organization’s namesake and host of The Bert Show, got in on the fun to help raise money and awareness for Bert’s Big Adventure’s annual trip and the children it benefits, and his wife Stacey and the entire staff raced through the streets on roller skates.

"This was probably one of the most exciting fundraisers that we have ever been involved in. The runners went above and beyond helping raise a huge amount of money for a small organization like Bert's Big Adventure and we are so appreciative of the gift," says Bert Weiss, host of The Bert Show. Tell Bert how great he looked in a Speedo send him a tweet @BertShowBert.
