ROY “BIG COUNTRY” NELSON of Affliction
JUSTIN EILERS of EliteXC
It’s a heavyweight show on The RNC!
Listen To The Show!
Roy “Big Country” Nelson and Justin Eilers headline The RNC’s Heavyweight Show for Tuesday, August 26.
Roy will be fighting Paul Buentello on Oct. 11 in the Affliction show. It will be his first fight since leaving as the undisputed heavyweight champion of the IFL.
For more on Roy, check out www.BigCountry.tv.
Justin recently lost his EliteXC heavyweight title match to Antonio “Big Foot” Silva, who later was suspended a year for failing a drug test for steroids.
Without the performance enhancement of his opponent, would Justin Eilers be the first heavyweight champion of EliteXC?

Ted Takvorian’s Rear Naked Birthday
For his birthday, or really any day, Ted would like to be in the company of a scantily clad Lindsay Lohan, or perhaps a ring girl or some naked Olympic swimmer…
But let’s face it.
That’s not happening.
The best we can do for him, the best you can do for him, is to send Ted a email for his birthday.
Send the email and any image attachments you like to thernc@joeted.com and the guys will read the funniest emails on the air. Images, if possible will be displayed. Try to keep it Maxim level, OK? OK!
Thanks,
Kitch
UFC’s MATT HORWICH, plus BENJI RADACH join Joe with Ted out sick.
Listen To The Show!
Matt Horwich, who just signed with the UFC, and Benji Radach join Joe with Ted out sick.
Matt beat Benji for the IFL middleweight title in December 2007 and will be making his UFC debut against Ricardo Almeida Oct. 25 in Illinois. He talked about how he got to the UFC and assessed the Almeida fight.
Benji, who Joe kept calling Mr. Hollywood, is mulling over offers and he promised to break the news of his signing on The RNC. He also talked about his EXTRA shooting at the house of champion skateboarder and MTV icon Ryan Sheckler!
We’re going Tuesday nights for the rest of the summer and into Setpember, at least!

UFC 87: ANDRE GUSMAO “THE BAGEL MAN”
Listen to the Show!
UFC 87: Andre Gusmao joined Joe & Ted before his UFC debut.
He talked about how he came to the UFC from the IFL and how he recently earned his Brazilian jiu jitsu blackbelt from Renzo Gracie.
His nickname is the Bagel Man, and Joe & Ted gave it to him. Help him get the nickname recognized on Sherdog!
Andre was given his nickname Joe & Ted before his previous fight, which was nearly a year ago. Andre knocked out Mike Ciesnolevic to secure what turned out to be the final team championship in IFL history. His KO set off a Brazilian celebration in the ring for Renzo’s Pitbulls.
Check out The Rear Naked Choke to find out how Andre got his nickname!
Andre is making his UFC debut against Jon “Bones”Jones.
We’re going Tuesday nights for the rest of the summer and into Setpember, at least!
The Athlete” Jason MacDonald was supposed to join the guys, but the airlines lost his luggage and he needed to sort out the mess. Jason, who is taking on Demien Maia, promised to join The RNC in the future.
Listen back to when he was on the show September 10, 2007 [we were still called "The RON Show, Featuring Joe &* Ted: Mundane Family Entertainment (With A Rear Naked Choke) back then!]! We have come a long way from those days!
Listen to Andre Gusmao’s first time on the show!
