24 hour takeover – hour 11 recap

hour 11: recap

Okay, so in hour 11 I know I was overjoyed to look out the windows facing Times Square and see the word “fart” blazing across the way in lowercase bold Helvetica type on the jumbotron. Life is good. Beyond that, Maximillion Cooper crossed the Atlantic from Merry Olde England to join the guys in-studio for a look at his high-speed creation, the Gumball 3000, an annual 3000 mile race that blazes across carefully mapped out highways of the world. After a smattering of Gumball clips, Knoxville and Jeff Tremaine called up Van Toffler, the President of MTV and Producer of Pootie Tang, to discuss a little redecoration work that was done to his executive office wall while he was out of town. The resulting mural was a more modern twist on say Tom of Finland’s big gay body of work, courtesy of Seth Meisterman and Celena, and featured a grid-iron theme starring Knoxville, an extra-fat Tremaine, and some swinging balls—testicles, mind you. Van was extremely grateful, needless to say.
