Longtime Twin Cities radio host Dave Ryan was suspended from appearing on his talk show Monday morning, three days after a segment aired during which Ryan and co-hosts snorted powder food ingredients as part of a Super Bowl trivia game.
The segment on Friday’s episode of “The Dave Ryan Show” was titled “Super Blow,” according to three listeners who spoke with the Star Tribune and others who discussed it on the Reddit online forum.
The section has since been edited out of the YouTube recording. The station 101.3 KDWB did not immediately respond to requests for comment Monday.
As a part of Friday’s trivia segment, a tray was brought out with four powders – flour, sugar, coffee creamer and pumpkin spice – that were described to be shaped into lines said Sylvia Orth, who was listening to the show on her morning commute from Maple Grove to Fridley.
Orth added that the segment made it seem like the hosts were simulating the act of snorting cocaine.
Each time a host got a question wrong, they had to snort one of the lines. Although it is was mostly scrubbed, the YouTube recording still had some mention of the snorting game as of Monday evening.
Following the game, co-host Bailey Hess sneezes, to which Ryan replies: “Bless you, Bailey, have we been snorting something?”
Hess then says she sneezed due to the coffee creamer she snorted.
