24 hour takeover – hour 24 recap
Once again, we rocked into the hour in dance party fashion. Knoxville lasted two songs, I think, before losing steam and moves. Fortunately this one stayed pretty happy overall, aside from JxPx, who absolutely hates The Smiths, and he pulled out some tin can lids to break up all the ticklishness. From there the takeover digressed into memory lane as Knoxville and the boys recounted some of the best (and almost always the worst) moments from the past 24 hours. And then it digressed into another dance party. All in all, good fun—no, great fun was had. Almost makes you want to play the “I’m not leaving game,” but not really.
Before we sign off for the nonce—just keeping it real Morrissey-like—I’d like to thank the following people for managing the jackassworld bullpen here all fucking night long and being total champs about everything and anything we put them through: Josh Lingenfelter, Derek Freda, Shannon Connolly, David Harris, Andy Han, Greg Wolf, Lance Bangs, Seth Casriel, Jose Cananana, Weston Houghton, William Boyer, Ned Watson, Maitee Cueva, Sophia Rai, Ciel Vanderveen, Grace Chang, Jason Cipriano, Sarah Strom, Brandon Freeberg, Danae Leali-Hudson, Garett Johnson, Jason Mitchell, Chris Moeser, Sarah DeFilippis, Manny Parisi, Dan Buchanan, Dino Covelli, and our digital “sponsors” Courtney Holt, David Gale, and Van Toffler.

more hourly recap
Now I know for a fact that two noteworthy things happened in this hour. First, a dance party.
|
We have officially reached George A. Romero status within the studio. Bloodshot eyes, shaky hands, stumbling feet—total motherfucking zombies from hell.
|
With dawn's early light streaming down the urethra of Times Square, Chris Pontius rallied together some men, most large, one thin, one old and one Cuban for an early morning workout.
|
I’m pretty sure some kick-ass stuff aired in hour 20, like Manny levitating alligators, befriending bears, and groping sharks, but one of the funniest things the last hour has been following Lance Bangs around the back hallways.

24 hour takeover – hour 19 recap
If you’re a diehard viewer you know damn well we already aired Mat Hoffman’s Evel Knievel Tribute back in some earlier odd hour, but we done did went and run it again—encore style. (Actually, it’s still on air as I’m typing this in hour 20, which means something must’ve went and aired in the virgin minutes of the hour…probably the Spike Jonze music video block.) In the meantime, the sun has risen in New York City, which adds a whole new loopy dimension to our current waking nightmare, and we’re all looking forward to seeing what April and Phil Margera are making for our breakfast in the “morning.” Since I’ve nearly run out of half-baked words to say about hour 19, I might as well remind everyone to pop out some poo and don’t forget to look in the toilet to see if it looks alphabetical in form. We’ve had a real shit kick checking all those photos out and plan on running the best of the fecal lot as our final sign off post-hour 24. So go for the gold, kids, and upload that crap now. Lastly, did everyone go plink out a gassy tune on the jackassworld “Fart Piano” in the games section? This guy David Harris made that for us, which was cool because we always wondered what he did.

As hinted at earlier in the night…or is that day? Well, whatever it was, the gauntlet was thrown down for Rick Kosick and Jeff Tremaine to go head-to-head in a dizzy boxing match.
|
f I’m not mistaken there was some stuff that aired this hour that was probably of a repeat nature. The making of the jackass video game?
|
If you’ve managed to make it this deep into the marathon, you’ve probably noticed that we’re getting away with murder on TV like we’ve never done before.
|
After much deliberation (and hours upon hours in the editing room), we aired the making of the Steve-O album—or at least what could be shown on TV without a fuck-ton of bleeps turning it into a commercial for Casio keyboards.
