D&D - Top 9 of 2009 - #9

Here's the big reveal for the next couple weeks:

Deminski & Doyle Show - Top Nine "Shows" of 2009

I put "shows" in quotation marks because while most of the entries on my list feature full shows, a few are either a partial show or span multiple shows. All the Sharebee links are new and working. We'll start with #9 -- Sept 24, 2009. This was a show that just featured a TON of games and giveaways. Here's what we wrote about this show back in September:

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 they 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?"

Here's the show:

Since we're on the topic of games and giveaways, here are a few bonus "classic game" segments from 2009 (updated 2011 Mediafire links):

1. April 27 -- The final "Friday Game" of 2009 (before the 9am hour was chopped off) featuring a classic round of "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon"
2a. January 21 -- A FOX-sponsored game of "Lie to Me" and the first-ever round of "Play the Numbers" (featuring an EPIC FAIL of a first attempt)
2b. Bonus short clip (17 mins) from that same day (1/21) where D&D talked about the firing of some of the local on-air talent at WDFN...foreshadowing to be sure!
3. January 23 -- Another round of "Lie to Me" with Rudy and Nicole and the second-biggest FAILTRAIN of the year, "Practice Girl Pyramid"
4. March 31 -- The worst (but funniest) game of the year, "Name That Tune on Rudy's Teeth"

P.S. As far as current updates go, the only thing we've picked up on today is regarding the future of Rudy and Jim. Nicole posted a message on her Facebook page indicating that Rudy is no longer with WCSX and Jim was on the air this morning with Nicole and Jamie -- not sure if he'll keep producing in the morning for Ken Calvert starting next week or not.

UPDATE: Here are a couple more bonus podcasts from January 2009...D&D interviewed Tonya Harding on Jan 23 (and actually asked real questions as opposed to kissing her ass) and later recapped the events of that evening during the next show on Jan 26...I wish I saved the "Doucheinski & Doyle" media pass they left for them at the MMA event!
