Brian Seiken has made available the long awaited New Year’s special featuring Crazy Legs Conti. Brian has a description of the episode on his website:
Some have accused Crazy Legs Conti of stealing a contest or two but this time he legitimatly stole the show in his latest appearance on Beautifulbrian’s corner. Emails flooded the box of Beautifulbrian demanding a reason as to why the promise of naked women on the show was vitrually abandoned. However the show was that entertaining, it didn’t need sex to spice it up. “Ive always viewed exploitation of adult content as making up for one’s inhibitions or lack of creativity” Seiken was accused of conning the public into thinking they were going to see porno and they got something totally different.”Hey , i never recieved the adult portion of the show. If and when i get it ill post it” Crazy Legs Conti was not only funny but informative as well. It appeared at times that Seiken & Conti took turns narrating the show. It was rumored that it was like pulling teeth to get Little Jmmy to re enact some of Seiken’s bits and pieces episodes. “They say he is one little tough dude to work with” The blend of Helen Haggerty Little Jimmy , Crazy Legs & Beautifulbrian was enough chemistry to make for one entertaining piece of history.

In this thrilling hour, we’ll take viewers inside the bellies of competitive eaters and see how the human body can be pushed to its gastronomical limit. We will follow an up and coming southern eater, Bubba, a father of two, as he tries to reach the big time in speed eating. We’ll meet famed 105 lb.
