| == The Flash Gordon Memorial Awards ==
| |
| | |
| Matt and Chris ring in the new year every January with an awards show in which listeners send in the "Cat-e-Gordies" and they pick the winners. At the end of each episode, they pick an Intercontinental champion, and have stated that they "cannot pick more than one person" and that winners cannot repeat from year to year, except that they have and they do.
