Frequency Friday: On The Air

Greetings from Fall River, MA!

Yep, the k357r3ls are out of the South at last!

Fall River, MA gave rise to a few famous folks…..

among others.

So I came here to get out of the South, and to do radio…..

….well, not exactly, but there is a Portuguese station in the building…..

Hey, look! A Portuguese video!

Just thought I’d throw that in.

On the air below the fold…….

Well, first and foremost, in case I don’t get to you again before then, Happy Thanksgiving.

Finally cracked into talk radio. I’m the fill-in guy for whoever can’t make it, and I gotta tell ya, it’s easier than I thought it would be. All you gotta do is have a couple three things an hour you can center on, and then you just be you. The listeners do the rest. And this place has some great loyal listeners. My phones go off the HOOK.

So to speak.

…although it did mean leaving my part of the spectrum.

It is a little bittersweet, in a way, after all those years of spinning records…..

but it’s well worth it. It’s not quite what I thought it would be. It’s not “all politics, all the time.” There’s a lot of talking about..just…life. Like today, I did “landlord/tenant horror stories”, yesterday being the great american Smokeout, I touched on that, and of course, one subject I cover a lot is my m3n…

…but, make no mistake, the politics is like, 65% of it. And you know where I stand, no doubt.

When the shit hits the fan, it’s on….

The midday guy is a conservative. He was off for the day, so they brought in a fill in guy name of Charlie Lyons. He devoted the last hour of his show to impeachment.

Remember that this guy is subbing for a con, but he’s a liberal.

A NICE liberal.

I, however, am NOT a nice liberal.

Nope nope not me.

So some asswipe fuckstick mouthbreather calls in and starts trying to threadjackoff into Clinton and Ted Kennedy.

And I wasn’t having it.

I have a mike too.

And I good and god-damned sure used it.

A voice spoke in my head:

Instead, we need to just attack attack attack these bozos.  Let’s stop methodically explaining away and treating their filth as “quaintly innocent and naively misguided apprehensions.”  Liberals need to trivialize, marginalize, and belittle their political religious & cultural beliefs. Just shit on them maliciously until potatoes grow on top of their heads.

Fuck them. Make them fight our words on their terms and tie themselves in knots for a change.

(- Caoimhin Laochdha)

And I flat fucking went OFF on the guy. Just let him right the fuck have it.

The host was taken aback. I think I looked like a lithium case or something. I could feel a vein pulsing in my temple.

Keri, she who hired me, was out driving around at the time, and heard it all.

When she came back, she was grinning like a fish.

How do you like me NOW, darlin’? 🙂

And Charlie? He spent the rest of that hour….a little dazed.

Like I said, I’m NOT a pantywaist milquetoast liberal.

I didn’t get into talk radio to play nice with conservatives.

I got into it to pummel, abuse, humiliate and discredit the fuckers.

I come to bring pain.

Because the bastards deserve it.

Everything I can give, and more.

I am an instrument of retribution.

I am a burdizzo clamp.

I am a claymore mine.

Front. Toward. Enemy.

Peace………….

After, that is, I fuck them up.

The first song to air on MTV at its inception….

On August 1, 1981, at 12:01 a.m., MTV: Music Television launched with the words “Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll,” spoken by original COO John Lack. Those words were immediately followed by the original MTV theme song, a crunching guitar riff written by Jonathan Elias and John Petersen, playing over a montage of the Apollo 11 moon landing. MTV producers Alan Goodman and Fred Seibert used this public domain footage as a conceit, associating MTV with the most famous moment in world television history.[citation needed]

Appropriately, the first music video shown on MTV was “Video Killed the Radio Star” by The Buggles.

I’m still alive.

I’ll let you know how it goes.
