If you actually think that was a real call and someone really believes “India isn’t real” then you might literally be retarded.

Off subject a bit, but that's the worst part of 97.1 at times, (well most times), the absolute morons who call in, especially the "I know more than the hosts/on air personalities guy"....

NEVER EVER COMPLY WITH FASCISM!!!

The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.
