SHOCKING spot on WPEN!!!

Has anyone else noticed the ad running on WPEN for the "Total Transformation Technique"?? It touts some 'revolutionary' way to have your child stop talking back at you in 'less than one minute'....I'm all for Junior to respect you, but the somewhat violent tone of voice of the mother who has used this (with great results) in the testimonial offered in the commercial, and the equally stern voice of the doctor plugging the product now has me asking not "what exactly is involved in said 'technique'?", but more exactly "How much Voltage is applied to the child to make him submit to his parents?"

I'm worried.
 
I've heard the ad often. I think what you do is hit the brat with the book! No, this product actually sounds like the usual fraud.

I think this is either a network or some sort of low ball deal. I heard the same spot on WMMR sunday night of labor day weekend. It's legit.

I'm MORE worried by the thirty-minute infomercial that WPEN runs on a weekly basis touting "Bowel Cleanse" that describes...in excruciatingly graphic detail...how you can cleanse your colon, what a "perfect stool" looks like and that when John Wayne died, "his bowels were packed with about 20 to 30 pounds of..."...Oh, never mind.

BTW, in answer to your above question, about 25 megajoules of current will transform even the testiest little kid into a most compliant child. (You can step-down the current to 15 megajoules if said child is wearing wet socks) :)
 
Don't worry...nobody listening to Oldies 950 has little kids!

oh brother!!!!! wait...it's true!
 
So many posters here complain about the infomercials on WPEN. But I find it interesting that they complain because they are actually LISTENING to the shows. I can not tell you one thing about those weekend shows because I avoid WPEN altogether Saturday and Sunday. Of course, after today, I'll be avoiding it every day.

I forgot to tune into 'PEN during morning drive today. Was anybody saying anything on air today about the pending death of 950's oldies format?

And then there's.....

....the "Radio Frequency Orifice" spot....OK, so that's not the word, but maybe they should try to slow down when they're saying "R...F....S...".

By the way, the Infomercials sound really good on HD because they don't turn the reverb off, and it has a Stereo effect to it..Only bummer is some of them come on cassette and while that's all fine and good with the heavily cutoff analog audio, the wide freq. response of the Digital really murders alot of the stuff they air, like Spongebob's Geater ID. Maybe it's because he recorded it underwater??
 
Re: Last day comments

Charlie mentioned it and said they would be playing some songs they had not played before or at least not very often. Yesterday, Jim mentioned that they only had two days to go.
