There used to be a program on WWCR every Saturday night called Spectrum. It was a show for radio hobbyists. I called in to that a couple of times.


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

Supersize used to post on the "uncensored971" board back in the day. I have never seen someone so angry and aggressive, and frankly, so easily fucked with in my life.

The last call-in show I remember calling into was Dial Dave Diles on WXYZ-AM 1270; this was back in '69 or '70. Hell, I was just a kid in junior high! I don't know why I've never been compelled to call any show since; it might be because of all the call screening.

I called a home improvement talk show once, about filling in a swimming pool. They just referred me to a local city employee to get more information. When I called him, he has retired 2 weeks before. I got nothing useful out of the call.

Just like nothing useful comes from your posts.

Hey, "Matt", just as useful as "Eldrick" was this weekend at the Masters, huh?

I was the H*** call on Jim Rome's show back in the 90's. Called about the Red Wings in the playoffs. Won a 6 foot Subway sandwich.
How recently have you listened to Rome? I recall something called the "Ran Your Ass Haiku" in 2013. I wish I could remember more but I was high as a karate kick. I remember laughing my ass off at it but can't remember shit other than the name :(
