Yup, you read it right. I, as Chris from Green Bay, sang a song. I have been working GFX the last few weeks and have been able to listen to Keith Murphy in Dead Moines on his radio show. KXNO is where he works from 2-4cst every day. So I stream it in daily so I can hear all the bile he is spewing daily.
Last week the topics were Valentines day, the viqueens, and Beer among other things. So you know me, I cannot just sit back and observe. I need to get involved. So on one day I sent an email about how the queen fans feel as if they should have won the Super Bowl because they had the Saints on the ropes. Great stuff.
On another day they were discussing Valentines day and how the Neck car 500 was on as well as the NBA all star game and how to ask your ladies if you can watch it. So I sent them an email calling out their man hood.
The best episode of the day was on Friday when as I was driving to work listening to 80's on 8 on Sirius. Journey's song Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' came on and I started singing along, fantastically I might add, and changing the lyrics. So as soon as I got in and turned the computer on I re-wrote all the lyrics. Then when the show started I called and sang the song. Epic.
Have a listen and enjoy it. My career is blowing up.
How did this happen? Two postings in three days? Even bigger, two Entourage members in three days. Amazing.
As you can see by the incredible photo-shopped picture above, Marty Frey is the next member of the posse. I know that I have not given the nomination of Weiser too much room to breathe, but now is not the time to breathe. Weiser and Marty in three days is two pretty good selections if you ask me. It is kinda like the all you can eat buffet at a Chinese resteraunt. You know that fifths is a bad idea, but man, it is that Kung Pao is sooo good.
I first met Marty when I moved to the promised land, Green Bay Wisconsin. Marty was the front man for promotions for WGBA and their news start up. Marty was the man who used to be the calming force of Chris from Green Bay. On days where THE MAN was pushing me down, or some stupid reporter did something stupid. Marty was there. He would join me in the NBC26 commissary (a silver Ford Escort), and we would talk it out. By the end of my sammich and Funyuns, all was good.
Marty was also a founder of the poker club in GB. I still think fondly on those nights when we would be in the Garage drinking beer, smoking cigars, listening to our theme song Asshole on the juke, and playing cards. Hell, Marty is the dude who uttered the immortal words, "I ain't no queer or nuthin', but I would fuck that Dee Snider in the ass." Classic. At that point beer, food, spit, and laughter shot out of mouths and noses. Epic. I believe that photo on the left is shortly after that moment.
Marty almost killed me once. True story. Shooting a commercial in Wisconsin. He had a nice brush pile going on his sisters place and we were going to burn it for 'dramatic effect'. So as it goes when brilliant minds get together, we decided to fuel it up with a nice five gallon pail of unleaded. Guess who the brilliant guy was that lit the fire? Yup, when it went up the fire ran along the ground about 2 or 3 feet behind me. As Marty said, he ain't never seen me move that fast. Here are the commercials...
Hell, look at the 'Things we discuss" list on the right. Look how many times Marty is mentioned. 56 freaking times. Just below the Stanley Cup and just above the viqueens suck. Marty is a TT legend. He was also along on the epic trip to Lambeau field and the NFC Championship in 2007. Epic weekend of drinking and football.
I guess I could go on and on about the dude, who is the only dude I know who has been to a party at the Playboy Mansion, but I will just turn it over to him and let him drop some knowledge on us...
As I stood in the wings of The Jay Leno Show last night - the final show, by the way - I thought that it was a perfect analogy of what I will bring to the "Peterson Posse". The Stars come and go - they shine for a while and then fade just as quickly... But I was there at the beginning - there for the highs and lows - and still there at the end to mop up the mess and start again somewhere else.
The balancing force that is needed in a posse of such dimensions and personal diversity. I'm there to tell the rest of the idiots the "real way" that the world works and the first one to say "screw it - let's get the hell out of here and grab a beer somewhere"... But also the guy who is the quiet and subversive practical joker - OK, maybe not the quiet part - but definitely devious.
So - in the immortal words of Groucho Marx - "I never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me as a member" - I humbly accept my inclusion into the Peterson Posse, while reserving the right to bitch about how stupid everyone else is and take off on a tangent anytime I damn well please.
There - hows that? Don't like it. I don't care.

So we now have four members of our crew named. Who will be next? Blashill? Venckus? Doroshenko? Your guess is as good as mine. Stay tuned and maybe I will name them before the year 2020. Yeah, that's gonna happen.
Okay, that is all I got for today. I will drop something else soon. I am also working on that series on the former Green Bay Gamblers and what they are up to. Now, GET BACK TO WORK!!
Hello, and welcome to TundraTalk as we continue on our 2 to 6 year selection process of picking my entourage. I know, most of you have been a bit angry about how long it has been taking. Some of you have moved on completely and don't care any more. Sorry about that, but you know, life catches up to you and a guy that is running a multi dollar multi media conglomerate like TundraTalk runs short of time. Or Maybe I am just a bit lazy. Who knows. Get over it. I am back to doing it. Trust me, the guys who are involved are paying attention.
I guess as you can see by the picture up there that Chad Weiser is the latest selection into my Entourage. Chad came up strong in his interview overcoming a few obstacles. CLICK HERE if you want to run it again. The first being that he sat in a car and watched me fight two guys once. Yeah, it happened. Oh, and the huge hurdle of marrying one of my old girlfriends. He did well and excelled to make the cut.
I first met Chad when I moved to North Dakota back in the early eighties. Yes it is true he was in the original posse that was formed in a 1982 Ford Escort GLX. That car was dubbed the Escorche and was the site of many a crazy scheme and RUN DMC sing-a-long. We spent a lot of time running around the state of ND blowing shit up and having a ton of fun doing it. Other members of this posse were Shannon Just and Bryan Powell.
In fact, those guys were the basis of my company WhiteHot Productions. Back in 1983 we stole my old man's camera and took over the Hazen Golf course and shot the first of many award winning shows. Celebrity Golf Tournament started me toward WhiteHot Productions and to a career where I actually get paid to run a camera. Nice. Chad now lives in Seattle, is married to Angie Reiker (said former girlfriend), has two kids and is working as a Lawn Care Specialist. I guess he mows lawns and stuff. Naw, he is a landscape architect. Chad has something to say..
I, Chad Weiser, newest member of Chris Peterson's Entourage, would like to thank God, my family, Chris of course, the people of Canada, the Packers, and cold North Dakota winters which provided long extents of boredom for Chris and I to start the origins of his first crew/entourage.
Being an old timer in Chris's circle of candidates, I appreciate Chris's memory of my great skills in having his back for all potential slobber-knocking fights and entertaining him during those long winters (not like that, get your mind out of the gutter), while forgetting that I married his old girlfriend. Well a lot of time has passed, and we are all better for it.
Now that Chris is a big shot, I am sincerely humbled by his selection of me for his Entourage. I expect to be a confidant and counselor, but most importantly my goal will be to properly serve and protect while bringing him a beer or brat whenever he desires.
To the TT Nation, carry on and be strong. Go Brett Farve.
Chadwick Von Weiser
Nice job Chad, well except for that Brent Favre blast at the end. Screw Brent Favre.
Speaking of Brent Favre. I got some good feedback on my last posting. First thing I got, within minutes, was from Gene Principe, of the Sportsnet Principe's.
I never should have believed in Favre...what the hell? Too many players on the field? Who is the coach Ken Miller? Then the pick. What a shithead Favre is...if he doesn't know better by now it's too late...I should be watching the Super Bowl hoping to wash away the ghosts of Fran Tarkenton and the Vikings 4 Super Bowl trips without victories..instead Drew 'Birthmark' Brees represents the NFC..I've had enough.. Gene
I believe that was sent via his crackberry because I had to correct a ton of grammar and spelling. One thing I do love about it is the venom involved. Ha, ha ha. Live by the Favre, die by the Favre. Not sure why he had to blast Drew Brees, but hey, he was angry, and I love it.
Marty then followed up my post by sending me a ton of pictures that really make me happy. Have a look...and have a great week...
