The Five by Five

I will not spoil the True Story Tuesday episode by putting too much of a description here.  But, this one we all can relate to. Internet Dating.  You have to hear this one.

Free Comic Book Day is an annual event held each year on the 1st Saturday in May. This year it falls on May 4th.  FCBD is an event where the makers and distributors produce comics for the fanboys and girls FREE!  The Five By Five will make our way to  two of our local comic book stores this year.  My nephew will be my guest co-host.  It will be his first time going and I want to see how he feels about all the fanfare.

I often get irritated by people who do not know how to use the sidewalks.  And this week's True Story is just that, it's funny and serious.  Because, I think people need to show a little common courtesy and respect.  It's unfortunate that we live in a society that rarely does. 

I finally get to release my inner comic book geek.  I just saw the new trailer for Man of Steel and it looks amazing.  The revamp of Superman is coming to theaters June 16, 2013.  I thought it would be nice to talk about all the various incarnations of Superman on the big and little screens. A fan of comics from an early age, I think I have seen just about all the Superman themed movies, television shows and cartoons. I also own a complete set of the comic book run of The Death of Superman. Giveaway Giveaway Giveaway.. The Five by Five will be giving away ONE digital iTunes copy of Look up in the sky!

This week's True Story Tuesday is about funny pronunciations .  I do not claim to be an english professor.  But, I do find some humor in how some people incorrectly pronounce simple words.  It makes it all that much funnier when It  comes from someone you don't particularly care for.  Here are some of my encounters with a few people and words they obviously shouldn't try to pronounce. LOL!  Call into the show and tell me about your encounter with someone saying a simple word completely wrong.   We are still accepting your True Stories here on our blog. Look for the submission link on the website.    

We are finally back with our Monday Entertainmen show.  But, this week instead of a TV Show recap we are going to talk about a few things that have been coming up in  the Entertainment world recently.  Special guest co-host, Darling Nikki,  will be joining us today. We will have a few things to say about Mad Men's Jon Hamm and his feelings about his manhood being the topic on so many blogs. *rolls eyes* Then we will take a few moments to speak on Brad Paisley and LL Cool J's new controversial song, Accidental Racist *side eye*.  So, don't wear your sunglasses honey because there will be plenty of shade for your right here on the 5 by 5..  Check out our blog here  for our latest post and full written version of the show.   

I made a post on Facebook yesterday (facebook.com/davidatl) about an occurence I had while out grocery shopping.  A friend of mine replied to me that I have the funniest stories.  I looked back through some old post and she was right.  Another friend said I was the Pied Piper for crazy people.  He may have a point.  So, the birth of True Story Tuesday came about.  This particular "True Story" came in the form of A lady who showed out at the grocery store yesterday.  And she just couldn't help herself when she addressed me by saying I was "All Chocolatey!"  It was a true spectical. Wait until you hear the whole story.  Hopefully we will have a weekly or bi-weekly edition of True Story Tuesday.  Or you can read the blog @ www.recycledgayblog.blogspot.com. Twitter @Reblog_gay Give us your show ideas by calling in or email or tweet me.  Maybe you have a True Story you would like to call in and tell everyone about. 

It' really isn't my 23rd broadcast, actually it's the 2nd. I am an avid watcher of TV.  Each Monday I will recap and chat about what's going on with my fave television shows. This week I will chime in on why they took off one of my favorite shows Don't Trust The B in apt 23.  I will also be chatting about Touch, The Following, Vampire Diaries, The Walking Dead, Deception, Supernatural, Being Human, Arrow and Cult.  And also a few others like The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Let me know some of the shows you like.  And there will be no talk about Scandal. I can't pick up another show.... argh!!!

Talking real briefly about the new controversial track Bow Down/ I Been On by Beyonce.  It definitely has everyone talking.  What do you think about the new song?
