Fightin' All Nightin'

2009-03-15T23:42:00.000-07:00

I realize that anytime I drop the request number on the show, I do it as a challenge to the listeners. I played The Who and said that if anyone had a problem with it, they could call and berate me. Someone did, and the next six minutes were spent discussing the death rates of musicians due to semi trucks. I was almost killed by a semi truck. Everyone should have a radio show.
