SEVEN BAD RADIO IDEAS
Monday Morning Moogin'
Tuesday Talkback Triple Play. Each caller repeated three times!
WOMAD Wednesday
Thursday Afternoon Tough Talk with Jonathan Biggins
Thank Goth it’s Friday
Saturday Night’s Alright For Whistling
Same Song Sunday, featuring, as always, Simply Red’s Holding Back The Years
And one fantastic idea ...

What the fuck problem do you have with Womad tim? Is there something about music that doesnt follow a 4/4 timing that is just deeply wrong to you?
Posted by: Tom at August 20, 2003 at 02:33 AMWhat is wrong with Thank Goth its Friday? But, have to admit I agree with yon on WOMAD.
Posted by: Andrew Ian Dodge at August 20, 2003 at 03:03 AMThe Womad is just pure evil. I met a Womad fan once. Shared a car with him for 250 kilometres. After the 100-k mark, I began planning my suicide ...
I do rag on those Goths, don't I, Andrew? Nothing personal, of course, but the whole Dark Majesty deal sometimes gets a bit ... I don't know ... cartoony. It's fun to look at Goths shopping, for some reason. I saw two last night fighting over which toothpaste to buy.
Posted by: tim at August 20, 2003 at 03:13 AMLemme see...One wanted the stiped toothpaste until it learned that the stripes didn't actually stay like that on your teeth. Or the other wanted to buy Steredent because Grandpa uses it and it loosens your teeth so you can put them in a glass at night. How cool's that?
