Shock Collar Question of the Day (1/15/25)

Published Jan 15, 2025, 2:32 PM

It's another edition of STAGE NAME or REAL NAME!

Remember when I told you guys the other day that I was proud of myself for getting ahead on the calendar and telling you about a new promotion before it expired.

What happened, Jess, Well, I screwed up again.

Oh Jeck, did we miss something that was free or awesome?

It's broken Jeffery in the morning. Because last Friday, Oh, Jeff, I should have brought this up was National Quitter's Day.

You did a whole parody song. I thought that you knew that you did your whole parody song. Your song of the week was about quitting and cheating.

On your not quitting and sticking to it, but taking the easy route to achieve your goals.

Okay, I really honestly thought that's why you did this song.

Yeah, the second Friday in January is when people are most likely to throw in the towel on their New Year's resolutions, so I probably should have mentioned that. But here's three times when it might actually make more sense to give up on your goals. Okay, even though I messed up before, we're going to fix it now.

Shows try to be motivational.

Yeah, don't we know we are?

This is we're giving you permission to give up, because the number one time where it makes the most sense to quit is when you're motivated by the wrong reasons that don't align with your actual core values. Like when Brooke told us she wanted to donate to charity more this year. It sounds good for radio, but we all know that's not who Brooke really.

Is her core people are starting to believe you, Jeff. It's causing problems in my life.

I'm just telling you, Brooke, it's okay to quit on that goal if it doesn't speak to your true soul. Number two time to quit is when your goal no longer resonates with you. Like years ago, for me, marrying a Disney Channel star sounded really good. Yeah, But now that I'm older, that goal.

Not as important. Creepy yeah, yeah, a little bit of legal. You think you're shot with Jojo.

Watching, you know what, She's not interested.

I'm going to give up on that goal, okay.

And finally, number three, best time it makes sense to give up on your goals if reaching it is just completely unrealistic and would totally drain you.

Yeah, so now you.

Don't bring up the Disney star marriage thing, I'm.

Going to bring up when Brooke declared it her year of Hot in twenty twenty. Yeah, but the next day you wore a nineteen eighties orange Paula Poundstone blazer into work. And don't tell me that the shoulder pads are fashionable.

Listen, just because the only thing you wear is free promotional gear from different radio stations you're on.

It's our radio station.

It doesn't matter, it does. Yeah, you don't get a judge on fashion.

Well, I'm just saying, now is a good time to ask yourself.

Should I give up? There we go? You go take that energy right the shock collar question of the day.

I'm not even sure if I want to finish this sentence, So Jake Gon'll do it.

Yesterday we learned about how some celebrities use fake stage names that fit their brand better. Take me, for example, A lot of listeners probably think Digital Jake was my given birth name. Yeah, yeah, but it's not. I was actually born Gunner Tyrannosaurus Hardcastle, the third nous. You know, I don't want my coworkers to feel intimidated by me.

Yeah, for the radio action hero, I go.

By Digital Jake just for safety.

It's easier to say.

And today, once again, We're gonna find out which Hollywood stars are using made up monikers in a special Celebrity Names Real or fake edition of alenty of twenty. Now I'll give you a famous celebri you just tell me is that their real name or a stage one. We'll start with the woman whose name is real unlike her eyelashes. That's Alexis. Alexis having a number one through twenty. Please ten, We're ten Alexis. Your celebrity is Natalie Portman? Is that her real name or a stage name?

I could even be a stage name. It does sound such a good name, But you would make up Natalie, like what if she was like Natalia? Tell you what that is? A nickname? Like Natalie from Natalia. That's just a nickname.

You have to just go off of, like your gut feeling.

A lot of time.

Okay, my gut is that's her real name, Jake, Alexis, is Natalie Portman's her real name? That is it's a stage name her? She was born Natalie Herschlog Natalie. Yeah, oh god, so where over one? Let's go over you haveing a number.

Let's go seven seven Brooke.

Your celebrity is Jamie Fox Is that a real name or a stage name?

This is so hard for me because he's a relative of yours, a Fox family.

Which the stage name. Here's the thing.

Fox is actually a really common last name, but I have never seen it with two x's.

That's what makes me think it's a stage name.

Oh and I know the whole story. Brooks said, Jamie Fox is a stage name. That is it is a stage name. He was born Eric Marlin Bishop really quickly.

He never used to get stage time in La being a guy, so he changed his name to sound almost like a girl.

So during when they would do open mics, they go, who's this Jamie Fox? They pick him out thinking he was a girl, and he'd.

Show up and he got because there's no other women.

They're very rare, very rare in comedy. Very fun fact. We're a jose Now after that fun fact, how about a number twelve for twelve hose. Your celebrity is Meryl Streep. Is that a real name or a stage name?

That's a hard one.

Streep is like iconic now.

Though, I know, but is it only? Is it iconic? Only be because she's a household name, you know what I mean?

Like Maine Street famous, but I don't know if I know any other streams. A lot of the times you change your name for sex appeal, and Meryl Streep is a very like I get turned on just saying.

Merrill.

I think it's such an unsexy name that I would say it's real Meryl Streep.

Meryll.

Jeff said, go with guns, but my brain says different. What do I do.

I'm gonna go with my stupid guns, and I'm gonna go and say it's fake.

Jose said, Meryl Streep's a stage name, it is, that's her real name. I shouldn't listen to Jeff, Jeffrey, it's over to you. Howbould number please number one, number one. We're talking celebs, real or fake names, and your celebrity, Jeff is Whoopy Goldberg. Is that a real name or a stage name?

Oh?

Oldberg? I mean Whoopy gold But both of those sound like they would be stage names. Goldberg Goldberg doesn't sound so much like a stage name. Is like the agent of the person who is on the stage. So I'm gonna say because of that, because Goldberg is not very stagey, I'm gonna say that that's her real name.

Jeff says, Whoopy Goldberg's her real name, it is, that's a stage name. Her name is Karen Elaine Johnson. Karen Whoopy looks better on the ego, and that means Brooke, you have one today's edition uplenty of twenty.

So Brooke gets to choose who gets shocked while singing My Humps by Black Eyed ps Who that's gonna be, Brooke.

I think you chose me last time, so I'm gonna do the favorite.

And that was actually j who chose you.

But that's okay.

I know all men are alike, that's right.

I can't even tell you guys a party. What's your name?

What you're gonna do with all that junk, all that junk inside, Joe Trunk, I'm gonna get get gig, get you junk. That is your shot collar question of the day. We got your phones out, coming up in just a few minutes.
