Downtown Live Saturday June 28th Carbon Leaf/Blind Melon

Massage Friday

Massage Friday in the studio on a 95 degree day.

Lorena Bobbitt

15 years ago this week. Lorena Bobbitt.

Now she has blonde hair and a cause and a something-something about self esteem blah blah blah. And she has a boyfriend of 14 years.

WHATT!!!????!!!!

The question of the day is...who in their right mind would date a woman with a history of lopping off a man's penis?

show audio: maybe she's good in the sack

Bad Band Name Of The Day

show audio: anus the menace

A Scene At Walmart

Foster caused a scene at Walmart and had no problem telling everyone about it. He is speaking for the masses as he explains the frustration at the checkout line.

show audio: lost it in the Walmart checkout line

phone chime in: that same guy was in Wake Forest last night

The Bad Band Name Of The Day

show audio: the 9-inch richards!

Greta Van Susteren and Tommy Lee

the sticky situation for the day:

the dude is trying to snap cell phone pics of a naked girl tanning

show audio: it was in his butt

chime in: if it's brown flush it down

The video of the day. It's perfect.

tommy lee asks greta van susteren a personal question while doing the Motley Crue interview on her show Monday night.

George Carlin

The Seven Dirty Words.

Were there more than seven? Listen to this clip from George Carlin on stage bit from 1972 and decide whether there were more than seven dirty words. Foster counted at least eleven.

George Carlins Seven Dirty Words

George Carlin admits he was chock full of toot during SNL in the '70's.

and Todays Bad Band Name

show audio: Lorne Green's Wet Nipple

Carlos Alazraqui

This guy is Officer James Garcia in Reno 911 on Comedy Central and above all, the voice of the Taco Bell chihuahua...

audio: "yo quiero taco Bell."

He was playing Goodnights Comedy Club and he does all these great impressions in his live show and did a few on today's show.

All Andy Griffith characters
Robert Deniro
George W. Bush

Russel Crowe

This was funny from Carlos but Ray from Goodnights was applying UCC to the video camera and thusly this camera angle. He'll claim he isn't paid enough for camera creativity.

UCC-Unneccesary Camera Creativity

The Vomit Remnants

The Lincoln Theatre 96rock House Band Finals Thursday Night

Some photos

Todays Bad Band Name

The Vomit Remnants

"Hyper groove brutality from Japan with a lyrical theme of violence and gore formed in NY in 1997 in the death metal style of the band Suffocation with that similar slam-death groove."

And this major sweeping statement on the Thursday show

show audio: the greatest performance by an injured athlete ever

Vinnie Dombrowski

Bad band name of the day. We love the band. We crack up at the name.

My Three Scum

Foster told one of his stories again. This one is a beaut.

show audio: and then I heard the sirens

Check out this cat that locked himself in the RV during this morning's TV weather report with Harry Smith on CBS or one of those networks. What an idiot.

show audio: scratch the national weather report-I'm locked in

Today's Bad Band Name

"My Three Scum"

The Mouse Traps

Father's Day Weekend and you can't find a father to play golf with. Which actually, is probably better than having mice invade your home.

And both of those is better than having to listen to Foster's no payoff recount.

show audio: huh?

Each day we reveal a bad band name. Certified band names that are copywritten and used by real rock bands.

Today's Bad Band Name:

"Barbara's Bush"

Downtown Live Saturday Cravin Melon

Downtown Live! on Saturday at Moore Square in Raleigh

And all the girls. Man.

Code Red

The Quote Of The Day

Tom Mathers-NC Director of Air Quality on our "particle pollution"

We're going to lose him on Friday around 5:30. We found out that particle pollution caused by the wildfire in eastern NC that blew this way can cause many things...respiratory problems and possibly death.

show audio: the other things particle pollution has triggered...such as turf toe

This particle pollution problem has spawned various other conditions in Fosters frail constitution and he thinks he will die on Friday and will try and hang on until 5:30...peak listening time.

show audio:foster's obituary

Rod Stewart

The Sticky Situation of the day:

He hears his girlfriend cheating on him over the phone.

show audio: they are "doing the nasty"

show audio: the proper way menfolk need to handle their "sticky" situations"

Today's 4:20 Smokebreak

Rod Stewart featuring Angus Young on guitar and Tina Turner's legs. Awesome.
