The Best of The Steve Shannon Morning Show: The Squad Celebrates National Pizza Day with Pureed Pizza Shots in the Studio [VIDEO]

Today is National Pizza Day, and as a hardcore, ride-or-die pizza lover, I had to celebrate this blessed occasion. The only problem is... I can't eat sold food right now. The Steve Shannon Morning Show squad and I weren't about to let that get in our way, so we had to get a little creative!

Okay--we got WAY creative.

Steve decided that if I had to suffer through National Pizza Day without any real pizza, we ALL had to celebrate National Pizza Day without any real pizza. Steve had Audio Bob bring his Ninja Blender into the studio and puree some Papa John's. Watch that Ninja go to WORK.

That blender has some crazy horsepower or something, because it pureed that pepperoni pizza like nobody's business. Bob brought his super-special bargain Christmas cups and divided the pizza puree into our cups.

I could tell just by looking at that orange crap that we were in TROUBLE. Even Intern Lena, who is unnaturally happy and energetic 24/7, was not feeling it. Check out the shade she tossed my way before our sampling sesh.

OH MAN. The pizza puree looked godawful. Intern Michael Jordan said it looked like pumpkin pie, but I thought it looked like something you'd scrape out of a cat's litterbox. JUST LOOK AT IT. Ugh.

We all had to sample our pizza poop puree on the air, and trying not to gag when I tasted it was one of the hardest things I've ever done. It tasted like pizza but had the consistency of chunky baby food. SO BAD. Watch what happened when we tried our pizza shots in the video above. It was definitely a classic moment!
