wow, they discriminate against horses? the fuck is that???

tell them you're a german calling about the ukraine

tell them SPRINGTIME IS WARTIME and putin is making a PEACE ATTACK! ALL EYES TO THE CRIME BOSS! BELLY FLOWERS!

I should have mentioned this:

I called awhile ago, so things might have changed, but:

It rings a bunch of times, like 6 or 7. A pre-recorded message comes on asking you not to mention brand names, profanity, etc. and to turn down your radio in the background.

No producer. You wait and listen to the show (on a slight delay), you hear a pause, then you're up.

the delay is so that the host can cut you off if he detects trolling or spamming or hears something like a "fuck you" (which can bring fcc fines). you need to lead him on without him noticing.

Good luck with this, I won't be around a phone tonite to help out. I did get on the G Gordon Liddy show once.

I JUST CAME HOME, how much time do i have left?

I was just ON :D


^^^this number is wrong: 330-673-1234 is the number that worked for me

When I called, I was automatically placed on hold and DIDN'T talk to a call screener......there was a tone and BAMM I was on the air.

Ahem: Its pronounced "Hotlanta" (hät/lan/tä)

That intro was awesome. I laughed very loud as you wove about six SY references into your call. And great job playing along with him. I got nervous when he asked what county you were from, but you pulled it off perfectly.


I was on about two calls later. "I think we're living in a daydream nation." Later in the call, I said "daydream nation" again. "Yeah, I think you coined something there." Too funny.

----

Okay, so that was pretty lame. (And I was sure I copy and pasted the # from the website, so I don't know what's up with that.) The host was particularly boring last night, and anyway I had already done a poor job organizing things. I really do feel awful if I wasted anyone's evening.

But I still think it was a good enough concept, and if anyone has any suggestions for a better show to ransack, by all means let's do A Prank, SYG Style II.

is there a recording or something?

please please please!
(too much wine at and after neneh made me fall asleep rather quickly after i posted on here)

I sort of recorded it. I have a cheap mp3 player-thingie that can record radio. The reception was fine, but when I listened back to the recording it sounded like utter shit, as if I was driving through a tunnel or something. I don't know why that happened and I'm pretty pissed.

To be honest, I was caught completely off guard. Not only did I not speak with a call screner, but I was on hold maybe 30 seconds before going directly to air. I really didn't have an opportunity to "listen" to somehow chime in. I did hear him mention how colleges are whoring out our children and tried to go with that.

Before calling, I jotted down some song / album titles to try and work in. It didn't go anything like I planned......but oh well, it was fun :)

If a call creener would have answered asking me for my name and city, I was going to be Thurston from Kent.

lo-fi is good for my shitty internet! 22kbps mono = gold

Ugh. I'd like to give it a listen.

do share, evollove!

I recorded the whole show, so I'll extract BP and myself and upload tomorrow.

I'm telling you, it's not "audiophiles will be disappointed." It's more like, "It is unpleasant to try to hear the voices over the static. This isn't fun at all. Dammit."

Add in my stuttering and I'm sure I sounded something like hick-ish dork :eek:

Here you go.

BP's up first and the quality is fine. One minute in is a remarkable sentence chock full of SY references. Classic. At the six minute mark, I'm up and it sounds like shit. I must've bumped my device or something. Basically, I say "I think we're living in a daydream nation" and then I say a bunch of horrible homophobic things. Enjoy (?)

that's nice work all.

If you're bored and have access to free phone calls, I would love for people to call the restaurant underneath my apt to demand they stop playing their loud music that harasses the residents and makes them sick. They need to take the speakers out of the walls and move them. Now they are in the ceiling against my floor. These people are real fucking phoney vegan assholes. Evening is the best time and you don't need to even listen to what they say, just tell them the music is too loud. Feel free to twit this or whatever, I'd love for them to get 100's of calls. They won't do anything until the State forces them, they have no honor or decency.
