Good morning, and welcome to a delayed edition of DFO Radio.  Last week's topic was "chatter" and since I was off gallivanting in London I wasn't around to post it on Monday as is typical.  I was actually home yesterday, but I didn't have much of anything to say on

I'm off to lovely Turlock, CA* early Monday morning, so I'm too busy packing to put in too much of a preamble to this edition of DFO Radio except to announce that it hits the ground running and doesn't slow down until over 100 songs later, where it closes out

INT. RECORDING STUDIO – MORNING A producer and a pair of drive-time radio personalities are engaged in an animated discussion. THE ANIMAL: Is this a fucking joke? PRODUCER: I assure you, this is not a joke. JIMMY: We're being pulled off the air for WHAT? PRODUCER: Trust me, I'm as surprised as you guys are.  Take the

Good morning/afternoon!  It's Monday and it's time for DFO Radio, so let's get this show on the...hey, where the hell's the road? DAMNIT, BROCK! It's another rainy day here in Los Angeles, which apparently means God is crying yet again.  I guess he heard about what happened in Sweden.  I hope everybody

Happy Valentine's Day!  My wife insists that this holiday is a ploy by BIG LOVE to make unattached people feel shitty.  I disagree, I think it's a naked cash grab (jots down note for a movie script about a bank robber who pulls his jobs in the nude).  Either way,

This week's special edition of Request Line was intended to deliver some much-needed catharsis to those of us who witnessed the most inexplicable choke job in the history of the Super Bowl, and for myself I'm happy to say that it really did help.  I haven't felt much of an

INT. DFO PRODUCTION OFFICE - DAY.  A pair of sleazy Hollywood producers emerge from an office.  The camera follows them in a classic Sorkinesque walk-and-talk.   RIKKI-TIKKI-DEADLY: And so after the trailer bombed, Sony tried to push the narrative that everyone who said anything negative about the film was a misogynist... DARKEST TIMELINE ZACH MORRIS: A misogynist? RTD: A

Just one more week before the regular season starts.  I can't believe it's so close...I can practically taste it.  Wait, no, that's last week's Request Line, when we took a double dip into the well of Eli, taking on the topic of "fruits".  My own weekend was relatively fruit-free, since I

SWEET SWEET FOOTBALL METHADONE! Thanks to the one-two punch of (meaningless) football and the Summer Poo-lympics, last weekend was pretty much the sportsiest weekend of the summer.  We've got just more than three weeks of speculating about depth charts and final rosters, lamenting over injuries, and revising our fantasy draft boards

INT. RECORDING STUDIO - LATE NIGHT The segment producer and an intern - CONNOR - stand in front of the sound board, peering into the recording booth. PRODUCER: [yawns] You got that coffee? CONNOR: [hands over a steaming mug] PRODUCER: How are we for time? CONNOR: Two minutes to air.  If you don't mind my asking,
