Avatar 🙉 Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:38pm Shira:

I grew up watching this Ray Stevens comedy tape at my grandparents' house (shop.raystevens.com...) and it's always interesting to hear and enjoy his pop songs with that in the back of my mind. Extremely goofy stuff (though at least it was relatively apolitical).
Avatar 10:39pm geezerette:

So glad you like it.

Dang!!! so great.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:47pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Another musical genius I never really appreciated until his passing. Nice work, Dave.
  11:49pm Carmichael:

Is that Johnny??
Avatar ♥ 11:50pm northguineahills:

Back in college, I almost ironically picked up a Merle album. Then, I shortly fell in love w/ the music, and picked up another five. RIP Merle, you were awesome, and genuine. His anti-George W record on Anti Records around 2005 was pretty good as well.
Avatar 11:51pm geezerette:

Dave, wonderful show. Look how happy you're making us all and who knows how many more all over the world.
Avatar ♥ 11:52pm northguineahills:

When Merle first got out of jail, Johnny Cash was the only person who would talk to him, and actually had him on hist show, where Merle gave a contrite apology. Pretty heartwarming. You can probably find it on YouTube.
  11:53pm Carmichael:

Crying and laughing are the same emotion. They release endorphins and satisfy your innards.
  11:56pm Clay Pigeon:

Great show, Dave. Always remember, Merle Haggard.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:57pm Dave the Spazz:

G'night, everybody--thanks for tuning in. Next week!
Avatar 🙉 Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:58pm Listener Wolfgang:

Fuckin-a Dave! You always fail to disappoint!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:00am Marcel M:

Thanks Dave!
Avatar 12:00am KP:

Incredible effort here, Dave. The best.
  12:04am P-90:

Thanks Dave & Bingo!
  5:16pm Marie:
