INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY
A pair of radio professionals are standing outside the recording booth sipping coffee, awaiting the arrival of the week’s guest host. The [DOOR FLIES OPEN] and a young couple enters the room.
PRODUCER: [moves over to greet them] Hey, what’s happening, Grimey?
BRENT GRIMES: [with a barely detectable measure of sarcasm, rolling his eyes ever so slightly] How nice to be greeted with such a familiar salutation.
PRODUCER: [oblivious] Welcome, welcome. [shakes BRENT’S hand]
FEMALE COMPANION: [menacingly at CONNOR] The fuck you lookin’ at, fuckstick? [makes sudden threatening motion]
CONNOR: [flinches]
PRODUCER: I’m so sorry, Mr. Grimes, we can’t allow your guest inside the studio.
FEMALE COMPANION: Guest? I ain’t no goddamned guest. I’m his fuckin’ wife!
PRODUCER: [abashed] Oh, my goodness, I’m so sorry, Mrs. Grimes. We’ve been a little gun-shy since Rex Grossman was here and did his whole “This week’s theme is rockets! Now it’s queens! Now it’s ROCKET QUEENS!” bait-and-switch bit with a woman he originally claimed was his “cousin from France”.
MIKO GRIMES: The fuck is this shit, anyways?
PRODUCER: It’s a, uh, radio show. You’ll be receiving calls from listeners, then playing the songs they request. According to a theme that you select.
MIKO GRIMES: [frowns angrily but says nothing]
PRODUCER: [to BRENT] So have you, uh, thought of a theme for the week?
BRENT GRIMES: As a matter of fact, I have. I thought this week’s theme might be “Gentlemen”. That is to say, songs that are about a particular “Mister” – Mister Postman, Mister Sandman, and so forth.
PRODUCER: [smiles] I like it!
MIKO GRIMES: But what about fe-males? You know, like that Tannehill bitch? The one who always insists on being called “Missus” Tannehill like she all fancy an’ shit but then runs around with a fuckin’ AK in her trunk…
BRENT GRIMES: Sweetcakes, I…
MIKO GRIMES: Yeah…let’s do that. I got just the thing to get us started. [moves to enter the studio – glares at CONNOR, who is standing between her and the door] GET THE FUCK OUTTA MY WAY. [she enters the studio and settles behind the desk] How the fuck’s all this shit work?
—
This week’s theme is songs that include Mr., Mrs., Miss, Ms…you get the idea. MIKO GRIMES will get us started with a song about a friend she made while locked up in a cell New Orleans.

I hate putting on restrictions, but…we already had a theme that heavily featured songs about doctors: https://www.doorfliesopen.com/index.php/2017/06/02/request-line-medical-attention/
Sorry man.

No biggie. Just wanted to shut it down before too many showed up.
That’s what I get for listening to tWBS. I shoulda known betta.

“Thank you, Mr. Miner. Thank you, Mr. Hood.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx1SfR9DV3k
This is my favorite song of all time. Specifically, the version from “A Live One”. But there are many other great versions too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj9FVlEtknU
Perhaps I’m opening a door the author didn’t intend to be opened. If so slap me down as needed. But Dr. seems fair game here…..

Yes let’s not do doctors we did that already during the Medical Attention one.

I wish more people would come in here and riff on the song choices. There are so many golden opportunities here!
I’ve long maintained that this song is Todd Hailey’s theme song. And not just because of the Camaro reference.

This song is fantastic, but the fact that the music video is all one continuous take is fucking amazing.

When you said “not pennywise” I thought you were talking about Warren Sapp.

Damn you. Just a click faster than me.
Doh.

Fun fact: This DOUBLE SHOT is one of Brad Childress’ favorite songs.

I feel like there’s an opportunity for a three-man wrestling tag team featuring Mr. Tinkertrain, Mr. Slippyfist, and Mr. Childress.
I assure you they already have something like that, just, without the wrasslin’ part…
For the last time, this ain’t the Beatles. It just really WANTS to be them.

YES! love this tune.
Haha, that’s telling.
Almost as telling as it being the first thing I thought of when I read RTD’s intro.
