D&D - Top 9 of 2009 - #5

Way back in early February, barely a month after starting at WCSX, Jeff and Bill agreed to spend a weekend together traveling around Metro Detroit on an RV to raise money for the Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan. They failed at the time to realize that the weekend they signed up for was Valentine's Day. This provided listeners, Rudy, the WCSX promotions staff, as well as the other on-air personalities ample opportunity to make "D&D Love Bus" jokes. The day before the event started, Jim O'Brien got his licks in with "Guy Love" (a song from Scrubs) and Nicole modeled some lingerie that she would wear if a certain CLF goal was met (pictures on her Facebook page can be found here and the video can be seen here). A listener even made a D&D "Guy Love" remix which got some airplay during the following Monday's show.

Today we feature both the Friday, Feb 13 show previewing the "RV of Love" weekend and the Monday, Feb 16 show that included a bunch of recaps of the weekend. We also have, for the first time, clips of the 5-minute-or-so call-ins Jeff and Bill made to the station throughout the weekend. They promoted the telethon and the online auction, told gut-wrenching stories about leukemia survivors that they met, and fielded good-natured gay jokes (the best kind!) from the DJs and from each other. Rudy and Nicole also called in a few times from their road locations. HUGE thanks to the listener who hooked us up with the audio from the CLF weekend waaaay back in February! Apologizes that we never got around to editing it until now.

Here are the shows:

BONUS PODCASTS (updated 2011 Mediafire links):

Here is a segment from the following show, Feb 17, where the crew discuss the virtues (or lack thereof) of the Man Hug. Doyle's opinion on this topic was revisited during, as I put it at the time, a "D&D insta-CLASSIC moment" on July 1 during a conversation about butt-dialing and inappropriate touching in the workplace.

Dr. Alan Grodin of Flossin in Clawson (a former sponsor of D&D) won the CLF auction to join the guys in the studio for a show -- he appeared on the air with Jeff and Bill on March 13 for some fun, some manwhoring, and some on-air teeth whitening questions from Jeff and Rudy (funnier than it sounds, I promise). Here is an edited version (Part 1 and Part 2) of the highlights of that show. The running gag during this show was Jeff's four-hour on-air experience with Vicodin. Other segments included a revoking of Rudy's Man Card, an in-studio appearance by comedian Dave Attell, clips from the epic Jon Stewart vs. Jim Cramer beat-down, as well as a Friday Game, "Rock and Roll Who Am I?"

Finally, inspired by the aforementioned "Guy Love" remix we made, I took my own turn at trying out some D&D audio splicing on several occasions throughout last year. Most of the time when a song was played on the air, I'd extract it and try to make a smooth instrumental segue. Sometimes these segues were 20-30 seconds long and just begged to be filled in. Here are a few of the dates and the results of my experiments:

July 31
August 4
August 17
August 24
September 3
September 16
September 24 (extended version can be found here)
November 6 (extended version can be found here)
November 23
December 17
