Request Line – Did You Ever Just Have One of Those Days?

[8:43am, Interior Recording Studio, Miami]

The cleaning lady is puttering around, acting like she’s cleaning, as the producer thumbs thru his notes for the day’s schedule.  Just then…

[Door Flies Open]

Producer:  Holy shit…aren’t you….?

Richie Incognito:  Yeah, I am.  Thanks for having me on the show today, btw.

Producer:  But you weren’t scheduled to…be…on….

Richie Incognito:  I came on short notice.  Thanks so much for having me.  I’m really hoping this thing today will soften folks’ attitude about me.  I’m really not a bad guy.  I was just having a bad day.  It happens.

Producer:  Rich…ummmm, may I call you Rich?

RI:  No.

Producer:  Fine.  Mr. Incognito, we don’t have you scheduled for today’s show.  I appreciate that you traveled…

RI:  Am I gonna have to shit in your mouth, Pal?

Producer:  Well no…I hope.

RI:  Look, I’ve been making a big comeback.  I’ve been behaving myself.  I haven’t bullied anyone lately as far as anyone knows.  I’ve been staying in shape…

Producer:  Ummmmm….where are you playing again now?

RI:  Oh FFS.  BUFFALO!!!!!!  FUCKING BUFFALO!!!!!!!

Producer:  Oh yeah, that explains it.

RI:  Why do you think I’m here, man?  That place sucks sooooooo hard!!!!!  I miss South Beach.  I miss girls.

Producer:  They don’t have girls in Buffalo?

The two look at one another and laugh hysterically.

Producer:  OK, fine.  I get it.  But if I let you on the air, you gotta promise to behave.

RI:  That’s why I’m here man.  I want to show Miami that I just had a bad day.

Fifteen minutes later, Richie Incognito is mic’d up and ready to go.

Producer:  Just push that button, then…go I guess.  Good Luck.

Richie pushes the button and begins talking into the mic…

RI:  What is up Miami????  This is your ol’ buddy Richie Incognito here.  I just wanna say that I miss all you guys and I hope to get back here soon.  I’ll behave.  I mean that Martin dude was just so irritating that I just wanted to strangle him down and….

Producer:  Richie?

RI:  …..  Right, right.  That Martin is a great kid.  I was just having a bad day…nothing more nothing less.  Here, have a listen and we’ll be back after the break…..

This week’s theme is HAVING A BAD DAY.  Don’t let me down.  Get imaginative.  Don’t just cop out like this….

Maybe not on the same level of this song, but my days spent in Texas have been particularly awful.

This is the happiest song about a bad day ever!

Having to take some skank to get her uterus coat-hangered instead of pushing her down the stairs; man, that’s a rough day.

I love the old rumor that Prince gave them this song in a quid pro quo agreement for sexy time with Susannah Hoffs. Because it makes sense.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Any deal that gets you sexy time with Susannah Hoffs – yes, even today – is a GREAT deal and you should take it.

Today, 20 years ago, 10 years from now, whatever.

“Yeah, but how warm?”

– me, contemplating a horrible choice at the coroner’s office.

Doesn’t really apply to the theme, but this is just, I don’t know.

There is an excessive amount of what-the-fuck in that video.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Back in the old days of WWTDD, when Brendon was writing, he penned a quote that will stay with me forever:

“If Kirsten Dunst and I were in a car that got stuck in a snowbank somehow and we had to huddle together for warmth to survive the night, they would find me in the morning with a sneer on my face and icicles on my nose.”

nomonkeyfun

I must fight Brendon and perhaps you now. I have a weird thing for her and the snaggle tooth.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I’m pretty indifferent to Dunst (I’ve enjoyed some movies she’s been in and didn’t find her objectionable in them) but I thought (and still do think) Brendon’s comment was hilarious.

Also, you do NOT want to fight Brendon Donnelly.

You’d probably do quite well against me, though.

But if tWBS can post Nickleback, then I feel justified with this one.

I was gonna insist that you post a cover instead, but all of those suck too.

This led me down a rabbit hole of country covers of all sorts.

I’m gonna have to recycle that King Claudius joke for one of the liveblogs.

Lenny Kravitz songs tend to get “lost” on the way to the playlist assembly. And I pull out things that aren’t music (I don’t mind them showing up from time to time when relevant here in Request Line, but DFO Radio is meant to be just music), but otherwise I don’t do much editing.

Game Time Decision

I had to google his discography, as i wasn’t aware he had more than 2 songs. Justifiable deletion IMHO.

You just want to chill and have a Pepsi, and your parents commit you.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

To think of all the needless violence that could have been averted if they’d just given him that Pepsi, and then he’d turned around and given it to the cops.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Very solid choice.

Donald Fagen, getting “The Goodbye Look” from that “colonel standing in the sun, with his stupid face, dark glasses, and the gun.”

I love this song, I guess is what I’m saying.

You are right to love this song. It’s great. I feel like the story continues (or maybe it started) in “Lawyers, Guns, and Money”.
