D&D - Sept 24, 2009

If we can't have the Friday Game anymore, can we have more of the Thursday "Give Away Everything That's Not Bolted Down" days like we had today? KISS tickets were given away (twice!), as were Def Leppard tickets, Lions all-you-can-eat tickets (see podcast #3 below), and Michigan Lottery tickets in another round of Play the Numbers. That was a fun show to listen to; granted, it would have been more fun had I been awake to listen to it live, as I could have tried to call in myself, but I digress. The pessimist in me wants to note that the last time D&D has this many giveaways, they were unloading random loot from their soon-to-be-unoccupied offices just before the split ways with 97.1. But I'll finish digesting the pessimist in me so you don't have to hear from him anymore. Non-contest segments from this morning included an interview with Bill Parker, President of UAW Local 1700 (they're borrowing the Faces Not Numbers banner), a debate about viewing habits for watching pro sports (in person vs. on TV -- I vote for the bar), another old-as-shit-driver-causes-accident story (at least the right person died this time), and a report on a waaay over-the-top Halloween attraction at Kings Island in Ohio (it's no accident I always cut out the Ohio Tourism commercials from the show audio). Doug "Doc of Rock" Podell jumped on the air at the end of the show as he prepped for his unexpected temp gig - subbing in for an absent Karen Savelly. Best line of the show? Doug P: "What song is up first?" Jeff D: "Isn't that kinda your job to pick them?" Heh...featured topics from today were, as selected by the professional primates over at WCSX.com:

1. SEX DEGREES OF SEPARATION CALCULATOR (link) - You may have heard of Six Degrees of Separation. It's the idea that we're all just six connections away from everyone else on the planet. This is the inspiration for Sex Degrees of Separation. By answering the questionnaire we will be able to calculate the number of indirect (and direct) sexual partners you have had, going back six degrees of separation. Try Sex Degrees Of Separation!
2. JAMIE SAMUELSEN TALKS WITH MICHAEL ROSENBERG (podcast) - Jamie Samuelsen talked with Detroit Free Press columnist Michael Rosenberg about the U of M controversy (started by his story) and the reaction from all over the country...[this clip was not played during the show today -- this is the "first ever podcast on WCSX.com" by Jamie]
3. GUESS WHAT'S IN RUDY'S MOUTH! (podcast) - D&D played a fun game, for a cool prize - tickets for all you can eat seats at the upcoming Detroit Lions game. All the callers had to do was guess what delicious snack Rudy was munching on!
4. MACKENZIE PHILLIPS (podcast) - Mackenzie Phillips (Daughter of the late John Phillips) dropped a MAJOR bomb on the Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday. D&D play back some of the outrageous clips.
5. JOHN CHO (podcast) - D&D talked to John Cho. He played Lt. Sulu in this summer's Star Trek, and he’s one of the stars in tonights debut of Flash Forward on ABC.
