Wrap: “My Antonio” Antonio Sabato Jr and “Curb’s” Larry Guli!
Posted by Volkman · Leave a Comment
Reality TV star/Co-Executive Producer, Soap Star, Calvin Klein model and Chef(?) Antonio Sabato Jr. from VH1’s “My Antonio” and Larry Guli of Curb Your Enthusiasm stop by to talk brain teasers, golf, artillery, beautiful women and Italian Meat Sauce!
(*If you want information on Ti West, Director of “The House of the Devil” who is our guest this Tuesday, October 27th at 8PM, check back here by Monday, October 26th.)
Watch This Episode on www.theStream.tv!
In this special edition of Live! From the Future... (if you’re paying attention, we aired on Friday instead of our usual Tuesday) because both our two guests – Antonio Sabato Jr. and Larry Guli - will have big TV moments coming up tonight, Sunday, October 25th.
First up was Larry, who is quite possibly the first former army artillery officer/ace softball player/investment banker/golf pro to make it in the acting world. As if his former professions hadn’t provided enough challenge and stimulation, Larry decided to go into show business after his retirement. So much for taking it easy in the golden years – Larry’s been busy ever since, playing a recurring role on General Hospital and, most recently, appearing as the latest foil to Larry David in Curb Your Enthusiasm. Larry’s episode will appear tonight at 9PM on HBO!
Actor, Investor, good guy Larry Guli gets uncomfortable when Stu asks him if he wouldn’t mind a casual Greco-Roman wrestling match after the show. The answer was “No!”
Larry’s impressive resume didn’t intimidate Stu, who actually believed he might be able to match wits with MENSA member Larry in a brain teaser contest. We’re too dumb to remember the actual question; regardless, Larry got it correct within seconds while Stu took the better part of several minutes to guess it completely wrong.
The audience figures out the brain teaser minutes, if not hours, before the show’s host
Next up was Antonio, whose big secret will be revealed TONIGHT! - Sunday night, October 25th at 10PM on VH1. We tried, oh yes we tried, to get him to tell us the winner on “My Antonio” but our guest was too discreet for that (not to mention bound by solid non-disclosure agreements).
Antonio expresses his true feelings about his host in Italian. Luckily, Stu speaks only English and rudimentary Urdu.

In addition to his current reality effort, Antonio is a veteran actor, appearing in General Hospital (are you sensing a pattern here?) and many other TV shows and movies, the latest being the title role in the crime drama Drifter: Henry Lee Lucas for which he won a Best Actor award at the Beverly Hills Film Festival! He told us about these experiences, as well as his formative years in L.A. (his father, also an actor, moved the family to the U.S. when Antonio was a young man).
Jessie Schneiderman is the winner of our “Best Antonio-baiting Costume” award for the evening. John, a distant second, sulks in the corner.
In fact, Antonio didn’t speak any English at all before arriving on these shores. To prove it, he even gave us a few lines in Italian. Did he actually reveal the name of his new sweetheart from My Antonio during this exchange? Probably not, but we like to fantasize that we got the scoop.
Antonio reverts to English; luckily he didn’t throw any brain teasers Stu’s way
We also talked about our guest’s hobbies, which include a passion for racing cars (and doing so on three continents) gymnastics and, most tastily, cooking. Due to LFTF’s lack of kitchen facilities – the microwave and the barrel of Grapevines in the lobby don’t count – we unfortunately couldn’t get Antonio to give us an on-air demonstration, but he did detail his recipe for genuine Italian meat sauce (which is built from capers, carrots, lots of garlic, olive oil, meat and tomato sauce). As the studio audience, Stu, Fulron and Jessie alternated salivating over the recipe and over Antonio himself, we brought the show to a close.
Buon Appetito from all of us, and see you at the dinner table… uh, the next show (which, by the way, will be on our usual Tuesday evening, in this case October 27).

Update: Antonio Sabato Jr. from My Antonio this FRIDAY
Posted by Volkman · Leave a Comment
The Sunday following our next episode, the hit reality show My Antonio will broadcast its finale. Why are we telling you this? Because we’ve got the show’s namesake star, Antonio Sabato Jr., as our guest and we just have to brag about it. We’ll try all sorts of subterfuge and cajoling to get him to reveal his final choice of mate on the show (NOTE: multi-million dollar bribery from the LFTF Swiss bank account and promises to sign Antonio to the lead role in the upcoming John Fulton biopic have failed to dislodge the secret. Any better suggestions will be gratefully received).
Whether we find out or not, we’ll sure have a lot of fun trying. Along the way, Stu, returning to the hosting desk after a one-week absence will have the usual hijinks and fun, and will even challenge Antonio to a push-up contest. Uh, good luck on that one, Stu. Also live and loving it will be the Fulron and Jessie Schneiderman, who strenuously (and almost believably) denies trying out for both My Antonio and that new reality show with Lorenzo Lamas and his kids.
Don’t forget, circus fans, our Antonio show is on a special night – FRIDAY (October 23).

Upcoming: Antonio Sabato Jr. from My Antonio next FRIDAY
Posted by Volkman · 2 Comments
After a fun show with John Fulton substituting in the host’s chair, we’re gonna get even funner with the return of Stu to said piece of furniture. We have a single guest for our upcoming episode, but what a guest – Antonio Sabato Jr., from VH1’s hot reality show My Antonio.
In My Antonio, set on the Big Island in Hawaii, the titular actor has to whittle a crop of 14 lovely women down to one single mate. Gosh, some guys have the toughest jobs. The first season of the show is currently airing. In addition to his Hawaiian adventure, Antonio is a veteran actor who has logged many hours in front of the camera. Among his notable roles is Dante Damiano on the durable CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. He previously got soapy for several years as a cast member of General Hospital, later reprising his character in the spinoff series General Hospital: Night Shift. In addition, he has played recurring characters and made guest appearances on many top TV shows, including the original Melrose Place, NCIS, Charmed and Ally McBeal. His movie resume is similarly crowded, and Antonio has also occupied the producer’s chair on more than one filmic effort. Now if all of the above doesn’t qualify a man to win the heart of a beautiful female on a Hawaiian island, I don’t know what does.
Speaking of beautiful women, Stu… uh, whoops, I don’t think he wants that cross-dressing lounge singer secret to get out quite yet… anyway, Stu will be brandishing a fresh Canadian tan after his working break in the Great White North and will be primed and ready to resume his hosting duties. John Fulton will return to the music director chair while covetously eyeballing the host’s chair, and Jessie Schnooterman, complete with her patented Jewbs, will hold down the IM unit. Needless to say, we’ll also feature the usual menu of gags n’ games and interview fun.
See you online for the festivities, but don’t forget, this one airs on a special night – Friday, to be exact (that’s October 23 for you calendar-heads).

Wrap: John Fulton hosts Zoë Roché and Matt Zane

John Fulton guest hosts! We survive (and even thrive) with guests Zoë Roché and Matt Zane.
Watch This Episode on www.theStream.tv!
So the dust has settled, the weapons have been put away, the lawyers have drafted their initial settlement agreements and all in all, John Fulton’s first bout of substitute hosting Live! From the Future… went shockingly well. Nevertheless, the ghostly presence of Stu, steaming with near-psychotic jealousy, attempted to sabotage the effort by invading the studio and breaking the D string on John’s guitar. Our brave host for the evening was undeterred, however, and rolled on with the show with the help of the ever-vivacious Jessie Schneiderpants and our new friend Zach Johnson, who held the co-hosting job for the evening.
Now what kind of self-respecting Tamagotchee wouldn’t love a songwriter like Zoë?
After a very convincing series of opening bits – which included a five-point rundown of why he was better qualified to host the show than Stu – John welcomed his first guest, the lovely songstress Zoë Roché. Zoë has been in the musicologist business for a looooong time, and is one of the youngest songwriters ever to get credit for music composition in a feature film. These days, she’s half of the rock/electronica duo Looner with her husband Angel. She visited us at the very end of Looner’s 2009 tour, which covered 31 cities throughout these United States. In her interview, she detailed her love for the band’s tour vehicle, the “SUV-marine”, told us about the inspiration for their song “I Love My Tamagotchee!”, and welcomed Angel to the interview floor for a interrogation question or two from John.
Matt straps on a meat hook… uh, lav mike … to tell us about music, porn and yoga.
Next up was musician/author/ex-pornographer Matt Zane. John showed a disturbing fascination with Matt’s funky new haircut, but also managed somehow to ask him more legitimate questions. Among these were a set of queries about Matt’s propensity to sing live with his band Society 1 while suspended from meat hooks thrust deep into his back (and we showed the video to prove it). As if that wasn’t interesting enough, we also delved into a discussion of Matt’s recent writing activities, namely his “moral self-help book”, Doctrines of the Infernal Process. For those that like a little yoga to go along with their 21st century Satanism, we also displayed a series of pictures showing Matt bending into painful-looking yoga positions.
Zach, as contemplative and philosophical as John isn’t.
Our interviews concluded, John took the show to the finish line in an awe-inspiring display of his deep inferiority complex rousing rendition of his exit theme song for the night, the disarmingly modest “I Was the Host With the Most”.
Zoë, John and Angel react to the news that Stu is returning next week, hell bent for revenge.
We’ll leave Stu and John to argue and axe-fight it out over who’s the better host for the show. In the meantime, we’re getting ready for our next guest, reality TV star Antonio Sabato Jr. He’ll be discussing the upcoming finale of his dating reality show My Antonio with Stu, who returns to host in this special LFTF to be broadcast on a different than normal date for us – Friday, specifically October 23.
