INT. RADIO BOOTH – DAY
BEANSIE: EEEKK!
DFO TRANSLATION ALGORITHM: Hi folks, it’s me, Beansie! I’m back from my vacation in Jamaica. Right in time for another holiday weekend!
BEANSIE: EEEK EEEK.
DFO TRANSLATION ALGORITHM: Oh man, you wouldn’t believe some of the shit I saw. Of course, I was so blazed the whole time I’m not even sure what was real and what I was hallucinating.
BEANSIE: EEEK EEEK EEEKKK!!!
DFO TRANSLATION ALGORITHM: And the women…string bikinis plus rum equals HEAVEN, you know what I’m saying?
BEANSIE: EEEK. EEEKK EEEKK!
DFO TRANSLATION ALGORITHM: But like I said, I’m back. Even though most teams held minicamps this week, there wasn’t a whole lot of NFL news going on. It was a pretty eventful week for both the NHL and NBA playoffs, though. My jungle buddy Rikki-Tikki-Deadly is still in his room crying about the slings and arrows he suffered at the hands of Jaguars fans (yes, they exist!) so I volunteered to step in for him and host Request Line this week. This week’s topic: MAMMALS! Post your favorite songs about the fightin’est animals from the fightin’est class in the second-fightin’est phylum in the entire animal kingdom. Pigs, dolphins, lions, if it’s got a backbone and nurses its young, it’s fair game! I’ll get us started with a DOUBLE SHOT of classics from They Might Be Giants. Have fun, and have one hell of a weekend!

Beansie is interrupting things for a minute to get one of his own selections in:
Primus – Wynona’s Big Brown Beaver
https://youtu.be/aYDfwUJzYQg
That is an inspired choice.
Makes me want Taco Bell
I would stick around for more but We Heading The North.

Sorry, did not see it had already been posted.
Beastie Boys – Brass Monkey
https://youtu.be/s0dxhSPoBjY
Beansie,
I need some clarification, are we counting humans as mammals?
Sure, as long as it’s something specifically related to “humans” and not like “When a Man Loves a Woman.”

Plus, it’s motherfuckin’ Memorial Day weekend. Go home you fuckin Bennies, yeah right.
/It’s a Jersey thing.
As always, a big thanks to this squad of fuckwits for promulgating the Italian American stereotypes that I love so much. Eat shit.
It’s enough to make-a you droppa the pizza all over you best tank-a top. Mamma mia in the vermicelli!

Wild Horses – The Sundays (because Harriet is nicer to look at than Mick)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiyCkSOF1pc
Originally the theme was going to be “animals” but I was like, no, that’s too broad. But I bet we could even do one with just “horses” as the theme.
Love this song.
The sad thing for jjfozz is that there was a perfectly valid Beatles song to use:
I thought the sad thing for jjfozz was Baltimore.
You want to hear what makes me sad? Kicking off Memorial Day weekend at my in laws. Because I sure as FUCK didn’t want to go to the pool and drink and smoke a cigar. What ever gave you that idea?
FUCK
Or this one. GOO GOO GA JOOB

“POLITICIANS AREN’T MAMMALS, THEY’RE LIZARD PEOPLE! STICK TO THE THEME!”
— Pete Carrol
Audioslave is one of the few bands that no matter what plays on shuffle, I never skip a song. And this is my favorite one.
Man or Animal:
I am pretty sure the only reason RTD posted this topic is because he wants to answer this eternal question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhhyvNNKTCI
Company wide e-mail: We’ll be closing at 3:00 to start the weekend early.
Good thing. This workday was killin me.
Again. MAMMALS. What the fuck is wrong with you East Coast people? Jesus Christ.
But enough about the Chargers’ medical supply inventory during the David Chao years…
“Nurssssh? NURRRSH! ANOTHER BLOODY MARY FOR MAH INSTRU *hic* MENTS!”
Kinks – Apeman
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEep67akIn4
“One, two, three, four, five against one? Well, that’s more than I expected, but I’m a man of my word. Let’s dance!”
Riley Cooper, putting his dukes up
While I want to be pissed because I wanted to post this myself, I applaud your efforts, sir. Ass slaps, and such and such…
Okay, since I fucked up the last one, and the DFO lynch mob was on me like Johnny Football on a line of coke, here’s another:
Tiger Tiger, Scruffy the Cat
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_G_U_PVAgZY
Man, they were harder on you than a group of Jaguars fans on a guy trying to bring some laughs into their meth-filled, joyless lives.
It’s not that we like to revel in others’ failures…wait, it’s exactly that.
Being on DFO is like being around my family. You are constantly heckled and verbally abused, but in the end you feel welcome and loved.
(This doesn’t apply to Blaxabbath because he’s a meany head.)
Now you just sound like Sill. “Oh this should be a family! Oh we should be welcoming of all religious backgrounds! Oh we shouldn’t form a SuperPAC to support Trump! Oh we should all be homers for the AFC!”
I mean, if I can’t laugh off being called a loser by a bunch of JAGUARS fans, I might as well just withdraw from society.
Animals, by Pink Floyd:

birds aren’t mammals not even ravens smdh baltimore education system
Oh man, just wait until we try to explain “birds and the bees” to him.
“What a day, eh? The sun is out, birds are singing, bees are trying to have sex with them…as is my understanding.”
BIRDS ARE NOT MAMMALS. Jesus Christ, man. Get your shit together. I blame the Baltimore Public School system.
Fuck. Forgot the theme that quickly. Mea culpa, you fuckers.
In Fozz’s defense, most of the kids in the Baltimore school system who depend on their parental figure for homework help are really just leaning on stuffed animals.

Blax, I’m offering you a fun filled weekend around Mobtown with me as your escort.
Also known as a one-way pass to the docks.
For you, we’ll just take a quick trip to West Baltimore. There are a bunch of corners you would like.
We can get them yellow tops!
WMD’s, yo.
With summer getting here, and people damn near BBQ’in and shit…..

Damn you.
I had this one ready to go, then did a quick scan to make sure it wouldn’t be a duplicate.
Well done, sir.
Black Dog, Led Zeppelin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0YoKzsjE-0
Like this version as well by Dread Zeppelin
https://youtu.be/CZHWy6W00oM
Fits the Jamaica theme nicely.
Prince, Pussy Control.
This song is about cat training, I think.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TvILqfxHTY
DFO is not popular with the Union Jax.
The funny thing is, posting to reddit gets a healthy number of views (even if things don’t get upvoted) but I’ve never seen any other fan base react so viciously before. And I wasn’t even all that rough on them, I thought.
Not the first fan base I would justify taking themselves too seriously…
Then again, I’m a huge hater so I can relate to their rage.
It was nice of their entire fan base to give us feedback though.
Heh heh, that comment totally made my day.
They should get used to the Union Jacks.
Pigs in Zen, Jane’s Addiction

This song wasn’t offensive at all when it was first put out (sometime during the Clinton administration, I think). These days, though, I’m surprised it’s not the theme song for a talk show on Fox News.
