example of what not to do to animals. Good old Microsoft and trying to control piracy. WGA servers crashed causing many to have illegal copies of Windows. Remember the little Asian chick that recorded 20 seconds on Transformers? Well she pleaded guilty. At least she wasn't texting and got hit by a train like the next r-tard. And Skype our very own show recording device crashed out completely as a result of "windows updates." We blame Microsoft a lot but not this time buddy. Coat hanger + teenage girl = giant billboard horror reference. From the vault of Thing They Just Shouldn't Do, we give you Jurassic Park 4. Star Wars finally goes to space as Luke's Lightsaber hitches a ride on the space shuttle. Snakes on a Plane…FOR REALS! Meanwhile, don't get your boat stolen and look for it with a plane, cause it might have snakes, too. The nation continues it's sex story life with two new ones, a 19 yr old girl and 14 yr old boy, and a man found innocent thanks to sex sleep walking. Mom of the year goes to the lady that ran over her old 5 year old and to add, she was driving the mini-van of the year. Remember, fat people shouldn't get near their computers cause they sweat and they die. This week's WTF is Wrong with Japanese People rocks the question that could put us out of business for like 20 seconds….can Japan replace the internet? Can a couple name their child " @ "? And can we find adequate hiding places from the people who buy the Hello Kitty costume for their cats? Oh well…..at least we aren't in South Africa…
It's that time again…no Billy, not for your daily enema, it's time for The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show. We may not hurt as bad, but we promise by the time your done, your ass will bleed just as much. In the epic pop culture world, Mike and Chris both discuss their views on the new Transformers and Harry Potter movies. Amongst the rambling and possibly good/bad Ron Weasley impressions, Mike tossed out the contest. Send us an email and the best two for good and bad will receive an official pen. Next, in the news, Will It Blend strikes again and this time its at the core of Apple…..get it? Core? Apple? Anyways, it seems yes, an iPhone will indeed blend. More HP news with the release of the tragic next chapter, Harry Potter and The Melting Animal Flesh Pink Dancing Elephant God My Body is Cold No WAIT I'm Really Hot, also known as ecstasy. Thieves and counterfeit money, but stealing from little children is, well, hilarious as this story shows with Lemonade scent. FYI to the sexual predators out there, cut off your feet so you are smaller and then you won't go to jail because of the precedent set by this judge. ROCK PAPER SCISSORS…..WORST IDEA EVER ON ESPN? You watch and decide. Left it to starving dying African children to use their laptops to search for porn. More Nintendo Wii news concerning it's record breaking existence as it brings another start title, Mario Kart, to it's resume. And Sony still sucks. Transformers are indeed more than meets the eye, but don't record them at all, not even for 20 seconds cause you will go to jail, unless you are a cute Asian chick. Watch for the sequels already in progress. Welcome back to Kevin Spacey for the next Superman movie. Finally, we have WTF is Wrong With Japanese People and here for This Week in Hiro. Masi Oka was nominated for an Emmy! Good for him! We all hope he wins. Lastly, for this next story, go watch the Matrix and then read it…..robots….we keep telling you….but you don't listen…..
Welcome one and all to The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show on this special occasion. We have reached yet another July 4th and you know what that means….Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Competition. Never in the event's history has this contest been so anticipated. In a stunning competition at Coney Island, the title of the Mustard Belt was brought home to the USA after a 6 year reign of the champ Takeru Kobayashi. News stories reported Kobayashi had his wisdom teeth taken out as well as suffered from jaw injury, but the champ showed no sign of that as he took on the number 2 ranked eater in the world, Joey Chestnut. Last month at a qualifier, Chestnut set a new world record shattering the previous held by Kobayashi. He was able to eat 59 1/2 HDBs - Hot Dogs and Buns - in 12 minutes. It was that of gladiators. The two stood side by side for the ultimate hot dog showdown. Chestnut took an early lead, but the gap was soon closed by Kobayashi. Neck and neck down the stretch until the final moments when Chestnut was able to muster the courage to down the remaining dogs. The champ? Well, he had an unfortunate "Reversal of Fortune" and lost a dog or two which only sealed the victory for Chestnut. The final total was 66 HDBs in 12 minutes! Not to be scoffed at was Kobayashi's personal best record of 63. What does this mean for the world of competitive eating? It means a new force to be reckoned with has finally taken the helm. Kobayashi will be back as any great champion does when they fall. Ultimately it's not about the record, but winning the competition. In an effort to try and see his own potential, Mike put on his own mini contest. The challenge was to eat 8 in 10 minutes. It wasn't that simple as you will see for yourselves. But this will not stop Mike and his ultimate goal of actually joining the competition next year. In other penguin news, if you aren't hungry for HDBs, the perhaps McDs. Watch this Iron Chef clip and decide for yourself if it was an accident or subliminal ad. Remember the last you thing you want in your town is illegal sex in bathrooms. Next time you get your mail, make sure all your Netflix and Blockbuster movies are there and if not than notify the post office like this guy did. And you thought penguins were scary, beware of those killer vampire peacocks. In a world where everything is for sale, such is the cost of schooling. Well this British chick found a way to get both of what she needed, money and lose her virginity for a price…..Hackers R Us, people are really running out of business names we guess. In the gaming world, predators can exist just as in the um….digital world? An Australian woman nearly got herself a very epic drop…a 17 year old boy. Brain game pulled for it's offensive spastic word….sorry to retards everywhere. In news that really doesn't surprise anyone, Wii still outselling the PS3 6-1 in Japan. Finally in this week's WTF is Wrong With Japanese People, more game shows as always. This time we see what would happen would happen if people tried to play Tetris. Watch Mike's video and let us know what you think! Grats to Joey Chestnut on his win and we look forward to the next series of competitions.
Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest 2007 Part 1 Part 2
Look but don't touch The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show. Sometimes, a little swearing is really what makes this country go around, and of course buy a frothy ice cold case of Bud Light. On a serious and sad note, we pay our respects to Mr Wizard and his family. He was a very large influential part of many children's lives growing up and we would like to thank him for everything. Now if we've told you once, well then we would have only told you once, but stop pissing off Sudan before they take off the world's supply of gum arabic….one of the main ingredients in soft drinks like Coca-Cola. Notice less penis enlarging emails? That's because the "Spam King" was arrested for his business. Google is officially buying out Feedburner for $100 million! Google's next purchase you ask? The sun. And just when you thought science and crazys couldn't get worse, it was discovered that the Pentagon was researching a bomb device that would turn enemy soldiers gay. Ya know, we could have saved a lot of time with that as we already have something that will cause that affect; it's called Tom Cruise. Like TMNT, the Thundercats movie will be CGI and not live action…for shame. Also, the talks of a new He-Man movie are out there. No word on whether Dolph Lungren will reprise his role. Ever wondered the origin of the now over $800 million dollar Spidey Black Suit idea? Would you believe a wacko sold it for $220 25 years ago? Read up and find out. More more more Kobayashi all the time in this week's WTF is Wrong With Japanese People. We find our champion beaten and fallen, but not out of the fight. Mad props to Joey Chestnut and his new world record for hot dogs. Joes is ranked 2nd in the world of competitive eating and has trailed Kobayashi for years. Despite his new record, he is not the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating champion. That competition will still be on July 4th as always. How will Kobayashi answer the call of this challenge? If it was anime, it might look something like the SNL TV Fun House video we have, Dragonball Z style! Yet another robot story from Japan. This time, it will dance on it's own to iPod music. They will regret it someday, and on that day, we will say we told you so. If you are afraid, be pro-active like the guy that created a hot water heater out of beer bottles. Way to go!
The gods shined down and behold, The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show was there. This week we get into a very heated debated regarding the very nature of what we do here. The censorship of the radio and TV needs to stop. Both Chris and Mike have some interesting views on the subject, with some very controversial things said. We hope you enjoy. In regular news, the new Transformers trailier is here and the final countdown begins to the movie. Mean while, Spiderman 3 continutes to rake it in and already that are in process of the fourth one. Porn.com makes it's 9 million dollar jump into the news. If only we could stop putting our children into the microwave. In Canada, a giant pillow fight is held, eh. Remember V-Tech? Well some teachers though it would be a good idea to fake it to teach kids a lesson….dumbasses. If only McD's would stop haunting us….teenage + plus * happy meal = news. Fat? Play Wii and lose weight. And lastly, Geas of War Golf? Sure makes sense right? This Week in Hiro brings us sad news with the final Heroes episode of season 1. Fear not, the Heroes Origins mini series should hold us over until we get to see more feudal Hiro. WTF is Wrong With Japanese People went backwards this week, but the stories are not….wow that made no sense. Have you seen Ninja Warrior - Sasuke on G4 yet? Watch it! Feel the power of the ninja! Shout out to Makoto Nagano as our picked best competitor. The next two stories kinda play together i.e. Japanese breastfeeding and Japanese women getting more curves thanks to ice cream and other such western cuisine. Japanese children like to severe their parents heads, too. Weird video of another game show with a Japanese Bruce Willis. Finally, a story we told you about a while ago with an update. The baby drop slots in Japan had it's first delivery; a three year old boy that his father didn't want. Sorry microwave dad, at least this guy did it legally.
The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show was recorded before a live studio audience. What’s the point of caring when all it brings is sorrow and pain….conformist…..or says Peter Parker in Spiderman 3. Welcome to The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show and our official Transcontinental Penguin Super Review of the new box office record breaking movie. Both Mike and Chris agree that the movie disappointed in ways we didn’t think were possible. With that said, it wasn’t a bad movie, but our opinions stand that there was too much flamingness to parts of the story and much stupidity to the emoness of the Pete. Listen to this week’s episode for our complete and review. Of course, SPOILER ALERTS CONTAINED WITHIN, just for anyone that hasn’t seen it yet. In other news, the Cocaine Energy drink, a story we covered long ago, was finally defeated by the FDA and asked to be pulled from store shelves. When the Cyborg Barker 3000 finally deactivates, the Food Box Gobler 2k8 wants to take his place hosting The Price is Right. We beg humanity to not ruin a classic show in such a way. The classic line of "What would you do if you knew you were going to die?" was answered by a British man, but then the more unlikely statement of "Oh, guess we were wrong about that" was expressed by doctors. Right, get started helping the Eco Wackos by killing every 5 of 6 people you see. Just make sure that any fire arm you get is a qualifying purchase on your World of Warcraft VISA card, that way you can cash in the points toward game play. Hopefully, you all have better luck loading the Maro: Game Over Video for your viewing pleasures. If not, just grab your Nintendo DS and play some naughty video games. But remember, like Sony says, killing goats is baaaaad. Actually, they think it’s good, I just wanted to use the reference. Finally, WTF is Wrong With Japanese People shows that stupid shit happens to them on a daily basis, such as going to a simple movie and getting sick from it. So, when in Japan next, not captured for torture purposes of course, make sure to head to a local theater to watch "Babel" and laugh at all the sub people getting sick.
After a lengthy captivity and torture, Mike finally returned from his exile in the Land of the Rising Sun…..and lowering school girl panties….Here this and more in the 40th installment of the Transcontinental Penguin Super Show. With so much material, we dove right into some more of our staple, Mr. Kobayashi and friends. The I.F.O.C.E. or International Federation of Competitive Eating is the professional front of the eating world. Check out some clips and bio’s of the superstars. In a related story, I think the chili eating guy from Mexico should earn a ranking. Folks, when you need your PC fixed, please just call us because we promise to not video tape your daughter in the shower like Geek Squad. Of course, if they had this next girl, they wouldn’t have gotten caught because she posted naked pics of herself…at 15! Leave it to the government and Microsoft to get a kid arrested for 12 days thanks to the day light savings update. Yet again, parent of the year award goes to Rian Whittman and his 100,000 volt stun gun to his 18 month old! You’d be surprised at how many boob stories we have this week as if we were frat guys or something. This Week in Hiro, Heroes only has 3 new episodes to save the world. In the mean time, check out Nathan’s campaign web site. Finally we have had dumb Japs in the past, but nothing like this in our WTF is Wrong With Japanese People. Innocent women tricked into buying poodles that were actually disguised sheep. Nice. We here at The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show offer our deepest condolences to the families of the victims from the Virginia Tech tragedy.
So there I was, In Japan, with Bob from Montana. We were holding the Concert to raise money to have Mike released from the Japanese prison. Except Flava Flave, wouldn't go onstage, unless he had 1,000 pairs of brown Japanese schoolgirl panties, previously worn.. So of course the local Panty shack was closed.. So Bob and I made our way into the store. Well that was the easy part, you see. Instead of a guard dog, they had a freaking puma. Well we killed the puma with a Pokemon we had, but the Shop keeper and his otaku son, well that was a totally different story all together. We had to beat them to death with their own pants..
Mike left us a series of voicemails he managed to make from his cell phone, that the Japanese missed in the pat down. Listen to see what happened next.
It may have been two months since your last Penguin Super Show fix, but never fear. Mike has been captured by the Japanese and Chris tries to make due with out his cohort. The show may be short, and kinda dry, but stay tuned for more!
Guest host Autumn, fills in for Mike after his abduction by the Japanese. Help us get Mike back from Japan, email savemike@penguinsupershow.com
Chris reads from a California Police blotter, involving lots of blood, a turkey and a cardboard cutout of a cat.
We review a time line of events since the last show and Chris' experience finding a birthday card for someone in prison.

Of course, maybe they could get a PS3 now that the price came down in Japan a bit….cough…cough….In case you are wondering, 2.4 million units of TBC were sold in a 24 hour period. Have a great listen and catch ya’ll next trip
On this action packed adventure with The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show you should really remember to wear a jacket…..Kind of a shorter show for you this week so let's go. Road rage can be a good thing sometimes, but only when you are attacking the right person. This week's shout out goes to the drunken teenager ramming what he thought to be his girlfriend's car because she didn't give him a goodbye kiss. FYI - it was a random stranger. Update on the horrible parents that let the dog eat their babies toes. It was actually the ferret! They might actually get the child back, too. God the system sucks. Like Mario? And penguins? And dancing to Outkast? Watch this wacky video. In other much cooler videos, check out the new Transformers movie teaser. Only 6 months to go! Also, another epic returns to the silver screen soon as Indiana Jones 4 is finalized and shooting begins this year. CES and MacWorld are here and that means tech gadgets a gogo. Most noteable is the new iPhone from Apple. It is a cell phone iPod hybrid which runs Mac apps, games, movies, all that jazz, but wait…..Cisco already pattened the name. D'oh! Way to be an ass Steve Jobs. This week, Mike brings to you the first Transcontinental Nintendo Wii Review. To some it all up, it was freaking awesome. Creator of Scooby Doo dies, but more importantly, he was from Japan!!!! WTF is Wrong With Japanese People we say goodbye to Iwao Takamoto and thanks for the doo! Feeling down? How about the world's largest Japanese hoedown? YEEHAWWWW, DOMO! This week in Hiro, Masi Oka sits down and talks all about the second half of the Hereos season.

On this note, have a fun filled time and don't forget about the contest!!! Email us whether you believe Mike's impression was that of Jimmy Stuart or Barney Fife and we will mail you ….. A PEN!!!
