drink radio

Hi All,

I am happy to report that Drink Radio has truly gone international. 

Our featured guest on this session of DR was none other than my old boss and pal, the thunder from down under, John Luscombe, who came all the way from Sydney, Australia just to be on the show. Okay, well he just happened to be in town, but believe me, he came to this session of DR loaded for Koala bear.

He went all Crocodile Dundee on our ass and kicked some Dueling iPod butt.
 
When you listen to this session, John may seem a little quiet and mild mannered, but don't be fooled. He was more ornery than Kylie Minogue on her period(Note: Kylie was probably not menstruating while posing for the above photo). He took a Russell Crowbar to us and shoved a didgeridoo right up our poopers.

Sadly, I can't think of any more bad Aussie puns right now, but what I'm trying to get across here is that John is from Australia.

John was nice enough to sit in and try to class up the proceedings here at DR. Unfortunately, DR alums Chris Girard, Bennett Webber and I were also in attendance and he failed miserably.

John had a little bit of a problem staying on mic and was somewhat quiet. I don't know if that's because he's naturally reserved or because he was just horrified that he actually agreed to be on the show.

But as usual, this was a raucous session, with things rapidly going downhill as the imbibing increased and by part four even Luscombe started let his hair down to the point where you could almost hear what he said!   

A special shout out to our all of our Drink Radio Fans - my cousins in CT, Gary Murphy and Laurie Ferendo, Kelly and MB in LA and my good friends from the Australia Fan Club Nigel and Allison in Melbourne and new recruit Martyn Ives from Sydney.

Drink Radio is filled with naughty swear  words, themes of questionable taste and a pretty good dose of sophomoric  vulgarity. Fun! But it you’re under 18 you probably shouldn’t be listening to this, unless you want to go blind.

Hi All,

Well, after two straight estrogen infused sessions, we're back to sausage party central.   

In a turn of events that closely mirrors our personal lives, we actually had no luck in coaxing a living, breathing female into spending the night with us.   

So there sat Chris Girard, Bennett Webber and I, miserable and alone on a Saturday night. Of course, the only remedy was to do a show!

Oh, and a bunch of shots. A bottle of Jameson's and then some other kind of scotch whiskey made their DR debut and boy, were they a rowdy addition to the party. Once they kicked in, there was no stopping the fun.

Of course, I can't really remember much fun after a certain point, but I'm sure there was no stopping it.

To prove my point, we actually recorded a PT 6 to this mess that I have decided to hold back in reserve for posterity - "The Lost Sessions" - perhaps to be released upon my death or liver transplant - whichever comes first.

I would have posted PT 6 so all of our (2) fans could take in our witty banter, but unfortunately you have to be drunk, speak Farsi and play it backwards to understand it. I must note that is an act of extreme self consciousness on my part because I actually stopped talking altogether and starting making goat noises in the middle of it. Chris and Bennett were fine. Really.  

A shout out to our all of our Drink Radio Fans - my cousins in CT, Gary Murphy and Laurie Ferendo and my good friend Nigel Rungen in Melbourne, Australia and Kelly and MB in LA. Thanks for all your support guys.
