The B.S. Report: Guest Hosts Jacoby and Wildes

With Bill in London covering the Olympics, the B.S. Report will be guest-hosted by various Grantlanders in his absence. We start this experiment with Kevin Wildes and his half-baked ideas. For those unfamiliar with Mr. Wildes, he’s been a recurring guest on the B.S. Report for years, pitching his sometimes brilliant, sometimes less than brilliant ideas to Bill. This week, Grantland editor David Jacoby joined Kevin to pitch a few ideas of his own, and since everything he and Kevin do turns into a competition, they had mutual friend David Chamberlin award gold, silver, and bronze medals to the best of the bunch. Some were better than others, but all led to some learning and some laughs. The following are some of the topics discussed:

  • Sports Venues Built for the TV Audience
  • More Mount Rushmores
  • The Kindness Network
  • Separate Bathrooms in Each Movie Theater
  • Personal Media Trainers
  • Crunch and Mush Café
  • Airlines for Kids
  • Sweatshirt Bathrobes

Intrigued? Disappointed? Confused? If you are feeling a combination of all three, that is probably the right read. Take a leap of faith and give it a listen — you probably won’t regret it.
