The Half Show #23 is going down but Me-saj and Jason's bathtub drain isn't. A more appropriate title for this show should be "The Bathtub Sag", starring the Plumber, the Janitor, the Super, and Me-saj and Jason. Radio Raheem of "Do the Right Thing" narrates the story while spotlight artist Reddyo provides the soundtrack.

Girl 600 of the Girl 600 Show and Jaxon of Jaxon Podcast TV cut the hit new single "Is it, or Ain't it" blowing up MySpace. In the Entertainment News another Celebrity Oops, Mike Tyson becomes a Escort and OJ is trying to decide if he did it with his now defunct book deal "If I did it".

If life hands you a lemon, make lemonade. But be sure to add a little maple syrup and cayenne pepper and drink for 7 days. Me-saj and Jason endeavor to complete the Lemon Cleanser Diet once again. Listen to Jason's audioblog of the whole experience.

In the Entertainment News, Me-saj recalls the greatest R&B artists of the 1990's such as Xscape, SWV, and Mariah Carey. Can the artists of today compare? While you think about that, we got a comedy spot from a rising comedian The Romantic Funny Man a.k.a Shawn Cornelius of HA! Comedy club in NYC. In the MySpace moment we listen to sounds of Young Cleazy while we check out the lovely lades at VBlazin.

Oh and did we forget to mention our good friend Loot and his upcoming performance at R&R in NYC on September 27. Listen for more details.

Just like Paris Hilton, this show is so hot that it will make you touch the sun. But, you better put on your Blublockers . Jason was on the scene at the Prince concert in Bryant Park. We have the second half of the interview with spotlight artist JT & The Dirty Truth. Jason's Healthy Half is talking about KFC chicken getting sued . In the Entertainment News we hear snippets of the Paris Hilton song Turn It Up, Jay-Z boycotts a famous champagne distributor, and I Love the 90's recap of our favorite shows from People Magazine

Back in full effect and banging our chests harder than an extra in Tarzan. The move out of the jungle is final and we talk about a few things that we will not miss about the old apartment. In birthday news, a trip to see the Broadway production of the Color Purple was Jason's gift to Me-saj for her birthday. Everybody already knows that Gemini's are a little wacky and when Me-saj points out a few weird things about the play they almost get kicked out of the theatre.

The Apple Store opening was a big event in NYC and Jason was on the scene with Half Show coverage. On the Healthy Half, Jason introduces us to the Caveman Medicine workout. You decide for yourselves if it is ridiculous or not. Entertainment News is jumping off with the America's worst R&B diss record by RL from the group Next. Master P has something to say with his new production of America's Next Top Hip-Hop Star. Finally the blind item will keep you guessing.

Back from our short hiatus, we hope that you all have enjoyed the
Purpose shows. It's been really busy here at The Half Show. Between moving and listening to Podcasts, we have lost track of time. As a bonus we have included a sample of our favorite shows. And Wendy from Gabber Jaw checks in on the Hotline before we take off for our interview with Keelah of Keelah's Soap. Her sweetly scented products are definitely
aromatherapy. However, Me-saj and Jason may need more than therapy after cleaning out the junk from the apartment and dodging moth ball sized hail.

Fortunately it's not the end of the world for you. Entertainment News
highlights the most recent celebrity oops. From the slaughter of hip-hop
(NaS) to Britney Spears boggling baby. My Space friends JT & The Dirty
Truth and Lizz Robbins are spotlighted. As well as Spice Promotions
model Contessa Atkins.

Celebrity Oops! Find out what the deal is in the next addition of the Half Show.

The Healthy Half is back! But before that we are celebrating the connection of Me-saj's DSL. It's spring and the Bird Flu is in the air--especially, on the NYC subways. However, we are healthy enough to watch America's Next Top Model with our favorite model Jade. The unanimous decision is that the new Fox reality show Unanimous is hands down loser.

We're talking about the Tribeca Film Festival in the Entertainment News. Me-saj believes that upcoming movies such as Poseidon, The Proposition, Crossover, Miami Vice, and Da Vinci Code could be 2006 blockbusters with a little name change.

The second half of the interview with Purpose is on. Our MySpace friends CocoJones and That Girl Que are worth talking about. And we can't forget about that classy lady Ms. Kyla Latrice and the Kentucky Derby.

ROFLcast checks in with highlights of the best of The Half Show. Although Me-saj's Verizon DSL connection is weak, she and Jason still manage to make this show interesting. A little trip to Home Depot and OfficeMax may have done the trick. Or not! The Alien News (f/k/a The Entertainment News) exposes Mike Tyson, Kevin Spacey, Hulk Hogan, and Usher. I think Michael Jackson and TomKitten may have to get in on this.

The first half of spotlight interview with Purpose is something that you don't want to miss.

Mandisa?

In the second half of the interview with DJ Psylence, he talks about the money end of the business. But don't tune out the music in the background. Finally, the Word of the Day is back.

Check out the new Links Page with all of the past spotlight artists and our favorite podcasts. Jason has tried to vote for some of our favorites on Podcast Alley but apparently they do not want his vote?

The movie The Color Purple has always been a favorite of Me-saj but is she willing to starve to watch it for the millionth time? The bad food at the Chinese Buffet surely taught her a lesson after that mistake.

Jason's Healthy Half is back. But could Jason be a Healthy Half fraud? Me-saj will get to the bottom this as well as the Entertainment News and celebrities who have been convicted of tax evasion.
