Week 5 of the TV Theme Song Tournament!

What are you doing Saturday at noon ET? You’re listening to week 5 (I think it’s week 5?) of the TV Theme Song Tournament on the Morning VIP on Fox Sports Radio! I’m the special guest judge once more and I’m pulling for the Facts of Life theme song. I’m just going to put my cards on the table. I’m also going to put it all out there.

I’m hoping this was more a referendum on my teeth than my chances at achieving “super fame.”
