So, I’m scrolling through the Twitter feed this morning. Just trying to catch up on the news, and see if there’s anything out there I can cover for the site. As usual, there’s a ton of depressing news…there’s actual news….there’s important news, holiday news, etc. etc. But, we all know that ‘depressing,’ ‘important,’ and ‘actual’ are not words that describe this site. So, yeah – I’m a little frustrated. But, then – I see this post about WKRN’s Brent Remadna like the light at the end of the tunnel. It was a real Thanksgiving miracle for the content on SoBros Network today.
If we get @RemadnaWKRN up to 2,000 likes on Facebook, he’ll eat this year-old fruitcake from @JulieWKRN that’s been sitting on @neilorne’s desk. FOLLOW HIM: https://t.co/KTRc34mAav #GMN pic.twitter.com/fdWtXvVLfG

This is what our web site is all about, folks. This story was born and bred for the SoBros Network. We’re talking about a dude having to eat a fruitcake that’s set on someone’s desk for a whole damn year. That’s disgusting, WKRN, and it’s EXACTLY why you’ve reeled those of us in who were Paul Heggen guys. But, really, this is no offense to Brent. I don’t have anything against the guy…I don’t want to see him suffer…but….and yes, there is a but here….you’re telling me I get to watch a grown man choke down a disgusting holiday dish…for free? Yeah, that’s beautiful #content right there, people. I can already read the headline: “Nashville News Reporter Vomits On Camera Trying to Eat Old Fruitcake.” That’s viral, baby!
It’s been a long time since someone has fully been able to capture the magic that was MTV’s Jackass, but I’m proud to see it happening in my city.
But, there are still some obstacles in our way to seeing this happen. By my count, he’s at 1,404 likes right now. So, we need to smash that like button, fam. You can check out his page here. Also, there’s this whole thing that Brent didn’t actually agree to this:
Ummm…I didn’t agree to this! pic.twitter.com/bbDChTOvrC

But, you know what I say – it’s like that old saying about Christianity, “if you believe, you may be wrong. But, if you don’t believe, you’re guaranteed to be wrong.” Something like that – I’ve heard Christians and Atheists debate that shit forever. It may be a bit dramatic to compare that to a dude eating old fruitcake, but here we are. That’s the best metaphor I can make. It may not happen. But, I believe, folks.
Sidenote: Why the fuck has Neil Orne had a fruitcake sitting on his desk for a year?
