1:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Hubig - that's a case for Monster Kid Radio...

1:13pm David Shortell:

I wonder whatever happened to Pamela Rodgers every time I hear that "The Big Cube" sound bite. IMDb mentions nothing after 1973.

1:14pm Mister Dobalina:

M O M M A!

🌮

1:16pm Hubig Pie:

The Castaways, surf band from Minnesota. Liar. Liar featured in the movie It's a Bikini World

🌮

1:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Hubig - a hot dancer & a 12-year old drummer... Lynchian...

1:23pm Hankypant Facenuts:

Hey Howdie Doo DJ Fools Paradise With Rex and fellow eggressors.

1:24pm Fuzzy:

Well you know what kind of eyes she got!

1:25pm egould310:

This is authentic hillbilly jibberish. Thanks for playing it.

1:25pm Docrock:

Faraway eyes

1:27pm egould310:

Smirnoff, Emergen-C, Perrier. Let the lunkhead rock n roll commence. I’m getting real dumb today.

1:27pm Mister Dobalina:

Ain't going out today, it's too cold!

1:27pm Handy Haversack:

"Shortnin Bread" always makes me think of Trainspotting.

1:28pm Handy Haversack:

Yeah, go get it, egould310!

1:33pm Rex:

From Barnaby Jones:

Roddy McDowell: “I’m a country music fan, you?”
Barnacle Groans: “I didn’t know there was any other kind of music ‘til I got my first pair of shoes”

1:37pm P-90:

I’d love to see that one with Buddy and Roddy!

1:39pm Hankypant Facenuts:

Well, that was certainly a different blues take on the topic of jelly roll. Never heard a singer include his mom when singing about jelly roll.

🌮

1:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

There's airports in GA bigger than my whole town in NewHampshuh...

1:51pm skid:

1:52pm egould310:

Have you ever stared into the eyes of a goat?

Rectangular pupils. Weird.

1:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Always imagined being a Medieval dude - maybe had a mushroom ...& there's some Goat standing up leaning on a fence looking @ me...

1:53pm Mister Dobalina:

Straight to where?

1:54pm Hankypant Facenuts:

First it was animal cruelty laws, then came MADD, now self driving big rigs pose the greatest risk to the survival of Country music yet.

2:08pm egould310:

Now the show strolls through the backwaters of Louisiana, across the cotton fields of Mississippi, and the sidewalk on Beale St, Memphis, TN. This is the birth of rock and soul music right here. The good stuff.

2:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

This Program rewrites History for me weekly.

2:19pm Handy Haversack:

2:20pm egould310:

2:21pm Andres:

Hey Rex! From what time and place do those great DJ sponsor announcements come from?

2:22pm Hankypant Facenuts:

Our greasy spoon. blind drunk 2:00 A.M. diner (located in the repurposed Greyhound station / whorehouse was Denko's. The special was the 'Denko Darlin'' : plate of spagetti, covered with chilli with two eggs over-easy on top (two lookin' at ya). Thier logo was, "I ate my darlin' at Denkos. True life.

2:22pm Morgan:

Cheers, Morgan, egould310!

I was stuck in Ann Arbor, MI, for a couple of years. The Fleetwood there is one the all-time great greasy spoons.

2:27pm TheManWhoLaughs:

Who needs booze to kill brain cells? Rex's no-brows classics work just fine

2:28pm Mister Dobalina:

Juniper juice, yum! But I sure do respect that stuff!

2:28pm Hankypant Facenuts:

@egould Don't know, this was circa 1970's in Norman, OK As I remembered the joint was revived but lost its honest and shameless grungy appeal of the original in the effort

2:28pm Dominick:

brilliant!

2:29pm Rex:

@Andres: That Big Bill Collins stuff is from 1967 on station WNIB.

2:44pm Dominick:

a tweeter and a whiffenpoofer

2:44pm woim:

Is this a stereo test recording?

2:44pm egould310:

I’m not buying a stereo from a dude who’s not wearing a shirt.

2:44pm Mister Dobalina:

Hey lady!

2:45pm Juke Joint Jonny:

Why is it that the beatnik in this here 45 single recording sound as though he is speaking in a Damon Runyon short story, as if he was a denizen of Old Broadway, or the Great White Way as it is often referred to by the demimonde

2:45pm Mister Dobalina:

What's up with this hairy tragus?

2:47pm Hankypant Facenuts:

Oh MAN. A Triumph The Dog promo. DJ Rex is GOD!

2:47pm P-90:

I still wanna know the source of the sample(?) used in the “No Brow” backing track...

2:48pm woim:

Does Rex get a comp ship of Mr. Beef with every mention?

2:49pm egould310:

Joe E Ross

2:49pm Mister Dobalina:

I was really disappointed when TPT wasn't on last week.

2:50pm P-90:

If Rex got paid it would just taint the whole thing

2:51pm woim:

He gets paid in beef...it's beefola

2:51pm Andres:

I imagine Rodney Dangerfield giving the No Brow speech. Pairs well with No Respect.

2:51pm Gaylord Fields:

@P-90: Music is “Feast Dance” by Chaino and His African Percussion Safari.

2:51pm Rex:

The music behind the "No Brow" loop is bongo genius Chaino...

2:53pm Rex:

Of course Gaylord does a better job of managing my show than I do!

2:53pm P-90:

Thank you, bongo scholars one and all!

2:53pm Gaylord Fields:

Rex, I just get to do the fun parts, like be pedantic.

2:54pm kyle a.:

2:54pm JohnEBGood:

Times Square late 70's. I was wearing a tank top that said "This Buds For You" Sold the shirt for a good price. Well ' didn't have much choice. 5 minutes later I get passed a shirt .
