Last Night's installment of The Five Count was our third annual celebration of Princemas. Ton was a solo host for this one. During the show he shared his favorite Prince stories with random strangers he met in the hallway, ripped on Dustin for missing Princemas, and blasted through all your Prince favorites. He was drowning in women's panties by the end of the night. Continue the celebration in the Audio section. After that, make sure to check out the new issue of Save the Crumbs.

After technical issues kept us off the air last week, we returned to celebrate a "Happy Nuge Year" for last night's edition of The Five Count. During the show we announced the groundbreaking for the all new "Ton's Safari" resort, discussed blowing glass made from the granulated bones of endangered species, and played enough Ted Nugent to ensure the new year starts off on the right foot. Happy Nuge Year, everybody! Relive the party in the Audio section.

Happy New Year from The Five Count! We apologize for the no-show last night. The weather caused some technical mishaps that knocked KMSU off the air, so we weren't able to bring you our "Happy Nuge Year" show. We realize most of you planned your nights around the The Five Count, so we hope it didn't ruin your New Year's Eve. We will celebrate "Happy Nuge Year" this coming Saturday instead. Since it'll be our first show of 2012, it should still count, right?
