So I’m listening to Howard Stern interview Matt Damon and Ben Affleck this morning and of all people, Ben Affleck named dropped Omo Moses.
Couldn’t believe it.
The context was Howard asking them if all the girls in high school wanted to be with them. Ben said, no, all the girls wanted to be with Omo Moses.
There couldn’t have been 50 people listening who knew who that was. Crazy.

I don't know what is a bigger story ... that Ben Affleck mentioned Omo Moses or that Free Quebec still listens to Howard Stern ![]()

Putting aside the snarky comments about a well-educated erudite like FQ listening to a low-brow loudmouth, who knew that Omo Moses was the Ladies´ Man in high school? Or that he was a classmate with a hack actor? Or that said actor would be the one to marry (and divorce) a sex symbol instead of Omo?
Forget tonight´s game, THIS is the topic that should get our full attention today!

I love this. No, I more than love this.
FQ, can you provide a ballpark as to how far into the interview that this reference was made?

Perhaps confused. But off the top of my head, wasn't Omo a math major in college?
Maybe his mathematical skills were the lure?
Admittedly. that would be a rarity in high school society.

Mayhem, I think it was near the end.
JF, he said they all wanted Omo Moses. Then added something like ‘he was the division 1 basketball player at our school.” (Which reminded me that IIRC, Omo was Mr Basketball in MA.
GWAA, it’s clear you haven’t listened since you left for Bolivia. Totally different now than he used to be.

That's awesome. There used to be a GWHoops poster named Holy Moses It's Omo Moses or something like that
