INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY

The recording studio at KDFO looks much as we’d remember it from the before-time.  There is no evidence of the PRODUCER’s long descent into quarantine madness, or of DJ 3000’s current service with the Ukraine Air Force piloting a Turkish Bayraktar drone.  The PRODUCER is seated at his desk, jingling a set of keys.   

PRODUCER: …and then his kids are going to have to…

DJ 3000: BLYAT!…[long pause, followed by barely audible trash talk in what sounds like a Slavic language module]…SORRY, WHAT WERE YOU SAYING?

PRODUCER: I was just saying that our ad sales director Jason took a new position.  In Indiana.

DJ 3000: HUH.

PRODUCER: And you’ll never guess who he asked to help him move.

DJ 3000: OH MAN THAT SUCKS.

PRODUCER: I know, right?

DJ 3000: HE CAN’T HIRE MOVERS?

PRODUCER: He’s already stretched really thin scraping together the down payment for his new house.

DJ 3000: MAN, WHO MOVES TO INDIANA IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINTER?

PRODUCER: Radio market is still pretty good out there.  He’s going to be making more money out there than he is here.

DJ 3000: IT’S THOSE FLAT LANDSCAPES.  THEY CAN BROADCAST FOREVER OUT THERE.

PRODUCER: Plus those talk radio listeners, man…it’s not just drive time for them.  They’ll listen all day.  You can stretch a “seven signs of evil” countdown into sixteen ad breaks.

DJ 3000: SO ARE YOU GONNA HELP?

PRODUCER: I rather not, but he was there when I needed him.  Bailed me out of a hell of a jam.

DJ 3000: THAT THING WITH THE FCC?

PRODUCER: Yeah. I figure I owe him.

DJ 3000: INDEED YOU DO.

PRODUCER: So I’m gonna be driving a box trick while he drives his Subaru.

DJ 3000: WHY DON’T YOU DRIVE HIS SUBARU, AND MAKE HIM DRIVE THE BOX TRUCK?

PRODUCER: Yeah, good point.  I’ll do that.  But even then, I’m still gonna need some road trip music.

DJ 3000: NO SHORTAGE OF OPTIONS THERE.  ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE IT INTO A REQUEST LINE TOPIC?

PRODUCER: I’ll need to limit it a bit more than just generic road trip music.

DJ 3000: HOW ABOUT ONLY SONGS THAT HAVE “STREET” OR “ROAD” IN THE TITLE?

PRODUCER: I like it.  You got something to start us off with?

DJ 3000: I SURE DO.  RELEASE THE MACHINES!

Today’s theme is: Streets and Roads.  Song requests must include the word “street” or “road” (or “avenue” or “boulevard” or whatever).
