Barry Young Bulletin!

Saturday May 8th...it was warm in Los Angeles...we were working the
nightwatch out of Frauds, Bunco division. The boss is Captain Howat,
my partner's Bill Gannon, my name's...(jingle singers) Jack Friday, K-F-R-C!

Darn, I keep getting those two Fridays mixed up. ;)

Guess who just knew you would be quoting Sgt. Joe Friday?

Hmmm, it ends with a question mark.... but doesn't sound like a question;

Was that supposed to be an interrogative or imperative sentence?  ???  ;D

Oh please! It's easy to keep telling everyone on this board how you knew they would say this or that, after the fact. But you sure can send along some Trix to my cubicle at the Buckeye Media Hut. Get ready for the summer semester and a new class on PPM Tricks!

I'll have Nurse Jeff run that box of Trix through x-ray at least twice before placing it in your cubicle! The safety of Media Hut senior professors is first and foremost with us. The newbies are on their own!

Getting this topic back to some form of reality: Can't recall hearing that fake studio audience in any sfx library. We also thought the Nearly Bald One recorded them in his studio or at the crackhouse on Adams. Can't recall any difference in sfx between today and when the Nurse and I first listened to him on 9~Ten.

That's because there is no difference.

Interestingly, "Cheap Radio Thrills" is still available...now on CD...so maybe it has been remastered in stereo! $99 bucks and you can own it and make your own Barry Young Show!

Wow! For a hundred bucks we could be the Nearly Bald Dr Akbar & Nurse Jeff (sfx - applause). Now who could we get to play Raul, Michelle & Babinski? (sfx - oooooooo)
 
I'd be willing to gin up a phony sense of indigence on any subject to get callers to call in and agree, but I'd need someone to play Michelle, debutant trophy wives are free to apply.

Although, lately all PHX talk radio has been the exact same...topic: immigration..blah blah blah...
 
Have any hints been dropped as to what the rejoiner theme
will be this Friday?

Block Party Rejoiner Friday
- Same artist into/out of stopset, or two same artist tunes coming back.
(NBO gives credit to both K-Slacks and KOOL for idea.)

KBSZ 1260 Rejoiner Friday
- Voice liners only, but at high levels bordering on distortion.

Lumberyard 1440 Rejoiner Friday
- Any rejoiner you want, but carrier is cut in the middle of it.

Alternate Lumberyard 1440 Rejoiner Friday
- All Kookie, all the time. (OK, Frank with My Way too.)

55/KOY Rejoiner Friday on 55/FYI
- Play old KOY jingles coming back from breaks.

Kustom Komando Rejoiner Friday
- Now why wouldn't Kim do custom rejoins for Barry?

I vote for an Arizona Rejoiner Music day! Boycott everyone else (well, almost). Arizona artists... or songs about Arizona. It's perfect timing.

To quote AZ's señor Senator's TV ad...."you're one of us!", KOOL Lauren! Imagine rejoiners by Alice Cooper, Stevie Nicks, Dierks Bentley, Esteban, Jordin Sparks, and Linda Ronstadt. (oops, delete the last artist por favor.) And if that doesn't work, then Mark Lindsay can belt out AIR-Ah-ZONA all three hours of the Nearly Bald One's shift. Los Buckeye Boyz think this is the greatest idea since Mayor Philiberto agreed to meet with Shakira, Al Sharpton and Danny Glover!
 
Barry is doing a fine job breaking the story of the slutty 7 year old dancers...

Oh, wait Bruce did it yesterday.

Barry is losing his hip factor to KTAR.

Bruce 1, Barry 0

Yeah, but wait 'til the PMD'ers take over. That advantage will evaporate and you'll see negative numbers. Two days after the story broke, they interviewed the Gold dealer who was tossed from a Suns game by wearing a "Viva Los 1070" jersey. And that's a Gaydos endorsed sponsor no less. On tap for today's program: Oil spill in Gulf. YIKES!

Don't forget Jerry Riopelle, The Pistoleros and the Gin Blossoms. Great idea Lauren!
 
The Nurse and I wuz thinking...wouldn't it be swell if the Nearly Bald One would use his old third hour intro? You know, the one by Snap! that makes you want to shake your booty like a Soul Train dancer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BRv9wGf5pk . Come to think of it...the last time we heard it was when TNBO was on 9~Ten. That intro and the infamous Dr Science somehow missed the bus to 5~Fifty.
 
It's hard for me to believe that Barry Young is the guy who back in the day used to make fun of KTAR for talking to Sun City. Barry has zero hip factor. What a disappointment. I used to love his show. But it sounds the same today as it did 10 years ago when I started listening.
