INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY
Once again, all the lights are off in the studio, and it’s completely silent. The studio lights come on…
…and in the hallway that leads to the studio a series of frantic footsteps can be heard.
— [DOOR FLIES OPEN] —
HUNTER RENFROW: [holding a square flat box] I’m here, I’m here! And it’s not my fault that I’m cutting it close this time, the guy at the…uh…shop wouldn’t stop talking.
DJ 3000′: THE SHOP WHERE YOU BOUGHT WHATEVER IS IN THAT BOX?
HUNTER RENFROW: Yeah. It’s a special day, so I brought a surprise!
DJ 3000′: NEAT! [engages Brad Pitt voice module] SO WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
HUNTER RENFROW: [mimes holding a walkie-talkie up to his mouth]: Stand down, I repeat, stand down. DJ 3000′ has the upper hand!
DJ 3000′: YOU KNOW, IT ALWAYS BOTHERED ME THAT THEY STYLIZED IT AS SE7EN.
HUNTER RENFROW: Right? Like how are you even supposed to pronounce that?
DJ 3000′: I THOUGHT IT WOULD WORK OKAY IF THEY TURNED THE SEVEN SIDEWAYS, LIKE…
DJ 3000′ displays an image on his main console.
HUNTER RENFROW: Hey, that’s pretty good!
DJ 3000′: THANKS! SO, AS FUN AS IT WOULD BE IF THAT BOX CONTAINED THE SEVERED HEAD OF GWYNETH PALTROW, I’M GUESSING IT’S SOMETHING ELSE.
HUNTER RENFROW: Yeah, that would be more of a Fitzpatrick Bateman kind of thing.
HUNTER RENFROW lifts the lid of the box, to display…
DJ 3000′: UM…OH.
HUNTER RENFROW: It’s for the whole office.
DJ 3000′: YOU REALIZE I DON’T HAVE A MOUTH, RIGHT?
HUNTER RENFROW: I know. But I’m not aware of any other way to celebrate the fourteenth day of the third month.
DJ 3000′: AH YES, THREE-FOURTEEN. PI DAY. DID YOU KNOW THAT IN BINARY PI IS NOT ACTUALLY AN IRRATIONAL NUMBER?
HUNTER RENFROW: Oh man don’t get started on that base-two stuff again, I thought I left that behind forever once we got through it in Honors Algebra.
DJ 3000′: I HOPE IT TASTES AS DELICIOUS AS IT LOOKS.
HUNTER RENFROW: [cutting himself a slice] Is there any way for you to enjoy something like this?
DJ 3000′: NOT THE SAME WAY THAT YOU WOULD. I DO APPRECIATE THE SYMMETRY OF CIRCULAR SHAPES, HOWEVER.
HUNTER RENFROW: Speaking of circular shapes, I thought that could be the theme of today’s Request Line.
DJ 3000′: CIRCLES?
HUNTER RENFROW: Yeah, and basically anything else that’s round. Like pies!
DJ 3000′: SURE THING, HAVE YOU GOT SOMETHING TO GET US STARTED WITH?
HUNTER RENFROW: Of course I do. If you’d be so kind as to fire up a little something from the Beatles’ White Album…
Today’s theme is “Circles”. We’re looking for songs about circular things – circles, of course, but other things like pies and clocks and such are fair game as well. Please post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?w!Ld_V3r510n and they should embed in the comments after you refresh. Last week’s puzzle clue of “Hovercraft” left our listeners stumped and went unsolved – it referred to The Alan Parsons Project and their song “The Raven”. Now without further ado, let’s roll!
Oh. Puzzle song:

That’s nothing. THIS one is the real abortion:

Don McLean is apparently also a pretty awful person, so there’s that.
It appears that Seattle has chosen to drink from the Lovin’ Kupp.
Buttercups are round.

I’ll miss the little fella, but I’m glad we’re not paying him $15 mil a year.
Puzzle hint: Consider the banner/example song.

Surprised that nobody has taken a run at the puzzle song yet; it was supposed to be slap-yourself-in-the-forehead easy.
Never mind
Brew time
