(9,276 posts)There was a rock station called "The Fox" that went "off the air" with a robotic countdown that took place about 2 days. When it reached zero, there was this free-form commercial-free blitz of all this weird comedy stuff including this song and the "Transfusion" one I also posted. This went on for about at least a week, and it became obvious that the rotation was starting to repeat (in fact, by the end of the run, you could tell the tape was wearing out by all the surface noise).
Finally, a DJ came on and took calls from folks chiming in with, "hey I LOVE this," "this is the best radio ever," "I haven't laughed so hard," and the host kept saying, "well, if you like this, we think you're gonna LOVE the new format."
Well, the "new" format was TALK RADIO ON FM (with an annoying reverb). I think it lasted a month when the ratings were practically non-existent, and then they switched over to "YOUNG COUNTRY" which I always thought of as that soccer-mom/dad in an SUV type of "Ah like it, ah luv it, ah want some more of it" C&W.
