Synopsis

In a misunderstanding, Joel autographs a guitar signed by the world's most famous guitarists, then must get his signature removed in time for a charity auction. Meanwhile, when Kevin reads that the average New Yorker is mugged once every 10.3 years, he decides to get his mugging out of the way right now, and Michele's hangover makes her worry-is she getting old?

Production notes

Jennifer Lopez, Moby, Bono, Lenny Kravitz, Bruce Springsteen and many more. These are just some of the guests that Joel Stein will be humiliating- unintentionally, of course- on his new celebrity talk show. This hip series takes an inside look at what it's like to work at a music station. See him interview your favorite musicians and laugh along with the crew as they openly mock the rich and famous.

This TV series was to run for 13 episodes. However, apparently only four were aired during its original run on Canadian network Bravo! In September 2006, the entire 13 episodes appeared on the schedule of another Canadian network, Teletoon.

Based on an idea from Time magazine and Entertainment Weekly journalist Joel Stein.

Fountains of Wayne performed in two animated videos during each episode.
