Bishop received a scholarship^[9] to play basketball at the University of Richmond, then eventually transferred to Salisbury State University to pursue a degree in communications.^[6] He currently lives in Ashburn, Virginia, with his wife, Theresa, and their two daughters Madden and Ava.

John-Paul 'J.P.' Flaim[edit]

'J.P.' Flaim was born in 1970 and grew up across the street from fellow Junkie Eric Bickel in Bowie, Maryland. Flaim attended Eleanor Roosevelt High School in Greenbelt, Maryland, and then went on to major in international business at the University of Maryland, College Park before studying law at the Temple University Beasley School of Law in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.^[5] In 1997, he failed the Maryland bar exam, reading his results publicly while on the air; however, he passed the exam the following year and can now legally practice law in Maryland.^[6]

• Producer Matt Myers (aka Matt Valdez): named show producer in July 2009. He grew up in Pasadena, Maryland and graduated summa cum laude from the University of Maryland with a degree in journalism.^{[citation needed]}

History[edit]

Auville, Bickel, and Flaim grew up as friends in Bowie, Maryland. Auville and Flaim attended Eleanor Roosevelt High School; at the same time, Bickel met Bishop at DeMatha Catholic High School. Bickel and Flaim also attended the University of Maryland together. After graduating from college, the foursome and other friends hung out and often shared living quarters. In 1995, the four began their broadcasting career as a hobby with a 30-minute public-access televisioncable TV show in Bowie, Maryland featuring sports chat and irreverent humor.^{[citation needed]}

The show focused on the interplay of the foursome, featuring guests such as Playboy models, rock notables, and local sports celebrities such as University of Maryland basketball coach Gary Williams. Their high local ratings lead to their national debut on May 18, 1999, airing on about 50 affiliates of Westwood One's radio network.^[15]

Through the show's history it occupied a night slot from 7-11 p.m. and 8-midnight from mid-2001 until early 2002. In October 2002, the show moved from WJFK to WHFS during the morning drive time slot.^[6] When WHFS changed formats from alternative rock to Spanish-language, the show returned to WJFK-FM in a lunchtime spot. In 2006, the Junkies' show returned to the morning drive, replacing The Howard Stern Show when it ended its run on terrestrial radio.^{[citation needed]}

In 2013, the Junkies returned to television with 'Table Manners,' a half-hour show on Comcast SportsNet Washington, featuring the four friends interviewing sports personalities over dinner at The Palm restaurant in Tyson's Corners, Virginia.^[16][17][18] The program debuted for an initial eight-episode run^[17][18] on February 6, 2013.^{[citation needed]} About a decade earlier, the Junkies had been in negotiations with ESPN to do a television show, but the project fell through.^[18] 'We just felt like we had unfinished business,' said Junkie Eric Bickel. 'We've been doing radio for almost 17 years now. There's more you can do. It just seemed almost wasteful for us to do our show, be done at 10, and then not doing anything else the rest of the day.'^[18]

On May 6, 2016, the Junkies celebrated 20 years on the air. In honor of their achievement, Washington, D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser proclaimed Sports Junkies Day in Washington during their broadcast.^[19]

Beginning on September 6, 2016, NBC Sports Washington simulcasted the show.^[20] In June 2018, the Junkies celebrated the first major championship for a Washington team in the show's history – the Capitals' 2018 Stanley Cup win – and NBCS Washington Capitals announcer Joe Beninati announced in-studio that the Junkies would be part of the parade.^[21]

Events[edit]

Junkies Poker Open[edit]

The Junkies have sponsored an annual 'Junkie Poker Open' event typically held at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The Texas hold'em poker tournament has gained some notoriety as former World Series of Poker contestants (Lee Childs, among others) have participated in the events. As part of their 20th year celebrations they held a special JPO in Las Vegas at the Aria Resort and Casino. In October 2017 they held their first JPO in the Washington D.C. area, hosting it at MGM National Harbor.^{[citation needed]}

Unauthorized Redskins Pre-Game Show[edit]

Since the 2004 season, the Junkies have hosted a two-hour pregame show prior to the kick-off of each Washington Redskins game. The show is broadcast live from a Washington area restaurant or bar and airs on WJFK-FM. The show is considered 'unauthorized' because they have continued doing the program even though WJFK no longer holds the rights to broadcast the team's games.^{[citation needed]}

Upersay Owlbay Party[edit]

The Junkies host a party for the NFL championship game at a Washington area restaurant or bar. The name is based on a Pig Latin version of the phrase 'super bowl' due to the NFL's active pursuit of trademark issues with the Super Bowl name.^{[citation needed]}

Junkies' Spring Break Party[edit]

An annual spring break themed party held at the State Theater in Falls Church, Virginia. This event is no longer held.^{[citation needed]}

Sundress Sillies Party[edit]

First held in 2008, the Junkies host an annual end-of-summer party. Women are encouraged to attend wearing a sundress. They also promote a 'V.I.P. section' for women who do not wear underwear, but do not actively check to verify 'V.I.P.' eligibility.^{[citation needed]}

As of 2011 the Junkies were forced to change the name of the party to 'Summer Dress Party' due to trademark issues.^{[citation needed]}

Filmography[edit]

The Junkies had cameos in Season 2, Episode 8 of The Wire, in which their show is visited (though only Flaim is shown) and also in The D-Train, in which the four of them play Pittsburgh sports radio hosts. The Junkies also released audio of them reading their lines in their Washington studio ahead of the film's release.^[22]

Notable Interviews[edit]

Justin Gimelstob[edit]

An interview with tennis player Justin Gimelstob made international headlines because of comments Gimelstob made about Anna Kournikova and other female tennis players. Gimelstob was reprimanded by his employer, Tennis Channel, and made a donation to the Women's Sports Foundation as a result of the incident.^[23]

Rob Ford[edit]

The Junkies created an international controversy on December 5, 2013, when they interviewed Rob Ford, the mayor of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. At the time of the interview, Ford was embroiled in a scandal resulting from his admitted use of drugs and alcohol.^[24][25] The interview was conducted while the Junkies were hosting their periodic gambling tournament at The Borgata. Producers Matt Cahill and Matt Myers arranged for the interview by appealing to Ford's interest in the National Football League and most of the interview focused on Ford's predictions for that weekend's upcoming NFL games. During the course of the interview, Bishop asked Ford to confirm the latest press accusations that he had tried to buy the incriminating video that allegedly showed him smoking crack cocaine. Ford denied the accusation and shifted the interview back to the topic of football.^[24]

Canadian media closely followed the interview especially since Ford had yet to respond to their questions about trying to purchase the incriminating video.^[24] At the end of the interview, Ford invited the Junkies to host the show in his Toronto office and also agreed to come on the show periodically to discuss football. Within hours, major American media outlets, including CNN and NBC, featured news stories about the interview.^[24][26][27]
