The Cancelled Radio Guys
Chris and Costello - Things we couldn't do or say on the radio...Chris and Costello worked in big market radio together in another life, now they bring you a rather skewed version of what's happening...interviews, attitudes, and reviews all in an interesting and captivating way, somewhat irreverent.
That's what you should expect from an American radio icon (Chris Bailey) and a man who only has one name...and turned his back on Queen and country, Costello (He's from England).
The Cancelled Radio Guys
Dreams of Digital Broadcasting Amid Political Satire and Rental Mishaps
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Picture yourself caught in the middle of a business deal that's more twisted than a daytime soap opera. That's just a taste of the drama we unpack on today's show as we share the story of a medical practice sale turned upside down by an SBA loan curveball. We'll walk you through the personal dynamics that threw the deal into disarray when a practitioner backed out, thanks to spousal influence, leaving us racing against time to secure a new partner. It's a saga filled with suspense, frustration, and a real-time lesson in negotiation that you won't want to miss.
Ever had one of those days where nothing goes right? Join the club. Today, we recount our 'Absurd Adventure With Car Rentals,' where a quest for a rental ride morphs into a comedy of errors complete with a missing heart monitor and a potential theft. We'll take you on a journey from despair to laughter as we navigate customer service chaos and ponder the mysteries of lost belongings. Plus, we'll toss in a mix of political satire and demographics, revealing some unexpected insights about Trump's support base, all while giving a nod to the creative genius behind the parody anthem mocking the former POTUS.
Buckle up, because we're not just spinning yarns about botched business and rental car fiascos. We're also dreaming big about our future on the airwaves. Tune in as we explore the idea of cutting ties with traditional radio to launch our very own internet station, where we can let our Arkansas roots shine and maybe even have a little 'dead air' fun. It's a heart-to-heart about the media landscape and our passion for creating a space that's all our own, regardless of the financial outcome. So grab your headphones and join us for an episode that's as unpredictable as it is entertaining.

Hank Hill here. Well, another week, another podcast of the original cancelled radio guys, this week with most of the technical watts. It's fixed. Notice I said most. Easter is getting close and we have a new competition for you to win copious amounts of cash, details inside Video, interviews that will make you scratch your head, and lots more. So enjoy, chris and Costello, the original cancelled radio guys, the podcast.
Speaker 2Hey, this is Chris. Hey, is it Costello? Don't mess with me. I'm in a pissy mood, man, pissy mood. Christopher, don't piss off mood. Man, don't mess with me, you piss off today.
Speaker 5You pissed off for mercy today. Let me get you here.
Speaker 2Now I'm going to play this scenario to you. Alright, give me an honest answer. Okay, alright, you got it. Alright, just say this was you. We were asking this up, okay, alright. So I'm selling my business, okay, and the buyer is buying it through.
Speaker 2he's getting an SBA loan, I guess because, rein's not loan and money's here like SBA's taking over, the government's taking over everything for a loan. So they came up does that have a medical practice? They have a new rule that if the medical practice is not owned, it's owned by a non-practitioner, which would be me. They just do this in January. The practitioner has to own 5% of the business. So I'm going, he doesn't and they're going. We have to make the practitioner 5% owner In order for the SBA to approve this loan. Okay, so we did it.
Speaker 2And all the practitioners should go okay, you got to be 5% owner. It's not a profit sharing type thing, it's just something. So we get the deal done, you stay employed, you get money, we can give you a little signing bonus of 5,000 for doing this. Okay, just for signing your name on the freaking paper. I mean because he's 5%. When you sign the paper it says you're a guarantor of that 5%, meaning that if the buyer faulted on the note, the practitioner is on the hook for 5% of the loan. So, of course, he might not do that for right.
Speaker 2So he saw he put together a side paper saying okay, he put his 5% and he put it in escrow already and it sits there. So if the buyer faults on the note the 5% for the practitioners in escrow, it'll pay for that 5%. So there's no risk to the practitioner. Okay.
Speaker 2That was you and I was asking you say Dr Costello, dr Quack Costello. So we invited him to that to you and went okay, you have to do that so this guy can buy it, but I'll stay there, you'll be still working with me, everything will be the same. You're going to get 5,000 for signing your name for 10 seconds and he's got an escrow counselor covered, so there's never any risk to you. What would you do?
Speaker 5Well, myself and every other listener that we have at the moment would probably form a line to the left to sign up.
Speaker 2Yeah, because you're covered, you're at no risk and you get 5,000 for doing it.
Speaker 5Not just 5,000, but you're making a residual anyway aren't you?
Speaker 2Well, you're going to get the. Keep your job, you're going to make money. The new owner is coming in because he wants to do other things, so he's going to increase business. You'll make more money. Okay, right. So you would say yes and you think most of our listeners would say yes, oh heck, yeah, I'm pissed off because our practitioner goes. He was ready, he's married to this redneck bitch. Okay, I mean just. I mean total white trailer park trash. You ain't signing it.
Speaker 2You know, because she's got him by the you know what. Okay, he's like mid 50s, she's 29 okay when they met.
Speaker 2He was like mid 40s, he was 21 and she got him hooked, he got her pregnant okay and they're getting ready to have their fourth kid and she's only 29, so he's and she threatens to leave him once in a while if she didn't do what he said, because he's going crap. So if she leaves me, I got I'll be paying child support for four kids for the next 18 years and I'm in my mid 50s already, so it's like you know you're going to pay for them one way or another, aren't you?
Speaker 2Oh yeah, he's got to jump and do whatever she says, whenever she says so so when she goes, you ain't signed that, you ain't doing it, I'm going to have to family lawyer look at it. So her family lawyer what the freaking family lawyer is. So she won't let him sign it. So when I'm just hella busy, we come to a screeching halt. Okay, right. So I'm pissed off, right.
Speaker 5It's, I can, imagine. Oh no.
Speaker 2I had to go out running an ad. Okay, I said I run the ad. I know my current practitioner, who's not signing because of his crazy parked white bitch life, is going to see the ad and he did. He goes. So you've been looking to replace me this whole time. I said no, just look at the posting. Three days ago because you refused to sign. So found a new practitioner wonderful person, I don't even know. I'm hiring them. Okay, by the way, I'm on flip over to this guy who's going to be the new owner. He's going to explain to you some papers you need to sign, plus the signing bonus. So she's getting the papers today. Let's see what she says. And she says no, just just shoot me now. Okay, where is it?
Speaker 2Well, then she says If you ever like to shoot shit and just have just aim at me and just shoot me now.
Speaker 5I'll let you know tomorrow. If she says no, let me know.
Speaker 2I'll be pissed off, jesus God.
Speaker 5Well, yeah, I would be too, and I do hope that's not the situation.
Speaker 2Yeah, because I really like the practitioner Really good guy. You know, yeah, I'm not going to get that freaking my big shred of work trash. You know, he just just scoos everything up. She's just up. Yeah, that's just what they're doing. We moved to a new office a month ago. We had all these color scheme laid out, some nice wallpaper and stuff, but you know, the management company, because we signed a five year lease, is going to pay for all that, you know. So she's got to step in a good name and get a family family to contract. You will let him do the work and of course he's going ten days we're two months now. She changed the colors to butt ugly screen. She went out to Ross and bought some of the cheapest artwork and hung it everywhere. Oh no, oh wait, oh wait, it looks like shit.
Speaker 5Yeah, it looks like Ross, exactly.
Speaker 2Pissed you off, gosh damn it. That dude clearly looks like a cheap dinner park crap. Oh god, he stopped the guy from signing, so we're just on pins and needles here, you know.
Speaker 5I imagine I imagine who's great.
Speaker 2She's a graduate. You know, top ten in the class at University of Colorado, okay.
Speaker 5Alright Comfortable there.
Speaker 2Yeah, she's great. She's smart as can be. You know, looks good presents. Well, I'm going, oh god, please sign the paperwork. Please, please don't go stupid right, try to tell you park trash guy. But I really doubt that she's too smart for that. So she's going to read it tonight. So, if all goes, she signs up, hello, we're going to celebrate party at your house. Okay, now you're going to party at my house, I'll get the flat meat.
Speaker 5oh, you said your house. Yeah, we ain't coming to South Carolina.
Speaker 2What kind of parties out there would be party miles.
Speaker 5Well, I tell you what, you know what? I went out for a ride on my bike yesterday. Actually, I had to, because you were just off too. Is that it Actually? No, because I mean, I was.
Speaker 2I mean stay in the piss off mood, come on.
Speaker 5Not for my blood pressure. But here's the thing, right. So the car gets run into and damaged. So I go and take it to the body shop and I'm supposed to get a rental car. Well, enterprise, you're supposed to send a little bus down there. It doesn't arrive. So I take an Uber. I take an Uber to enterprise. Okay, I get in there, I walk in the door and I go hi, guys are going to pick up my car. Just about every one of them in there to a man said we don't have any.
Speaker 2Really.
Speaker 5I said you are a rental car company, right, and you're telling me that you don't have a car. That's right, sir. We don't have any.
Speaker 2Oh well, during and after COVID that was pretty normal, so I'm surprised to hear that now.
Speaker 5Well, that was just that, that particular place Anyway. So I said OK, well, I'm stranded here. Yeah, well, I'm trying not to be. Do you remember that movie falling down? No, oh, really. Ok, it was who's in that? Well, that's what I'm trying to remember. But any hill, google it, google it. It's about this guy who just has a really shitty day. It starts off with he goes into like a McDonald's or something.
Speaker 7Yes, sir, I I like some breakfast. We stopped serving breakfast. I know you stopped serving breakfast, rick. Sheila told me to stop serving breakfast. Why am I calling you by your first name? I don't even know who you are. I still call my boss Mr, and I work for him for seven and a half years. But I walk in here all of a sudden, total strange, and I'm calling you Rick and Sheila, like we're in some kind of meeting. I don't want to be your buddy, rick, I just want a little breakfast.
Speaker 2You can call me Miss Folsom if you want to Sheila we stopped serving breakfast at eleven thirty.
Speaker 7Rick, have you ever heard the expression? The customer is always right, yeah, yeah. Well, here I am the customer. That's not our policy. You have to order something from the lunch menu. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Absurd Adventure With Car Rentals
Speaker 7I don't want lunch, I want breakfast. Yeah well, hey, I'm really sorry. Yeah well, hey, I'm really sorry too. Get it going, let's get organized. Calm down, just calm down. Everybody Sit down, sit down over there. Hey, hey, hey, hey, mister, when are you going? No, no, no, no, you sit down there and you finish your lunch. Come on, everybody just relax and take it easy. Come on, well, eat your lunch, please, eat your lunch. You all need your vitamins A's and B's, and it's an accident? It's an accident. It's an accident. It's a trigger, it's sensitive, it's okay.
Speaker 5Something and somebody drops coffee on him and then somebody cuts him off somewhere. Basically, he ends up shooting up all these places. Who's it? Michael? Oh gosh, can't remember. Look it up. It was actually a very good movie. It was about 20 years ago, so I guess.
Speaker 2Anyway, you're right on my site today, so you're stuck there. The Uber guy drops you off.
Speaker 5The Uber guy's gone and you get no run of car. So I'm saying to him okay, fine, what am I supposed to do now? And there was just a total, total indifference. I said tell you what. You over there, move off that couch. That's my bed. I'm staying until I get a car. I mean, I was, you see, now I'm just starting to get pissed, with a bit of humor. Okay, I said, by the way, I want at least a full 50-inch TV and maybe a cup of coffee wouldn't hurt either. You know, and people are looking me like well, this guy's fucking nuts. That's also true for the massage. You should just go ahead and take a massage, a massage by some of the women in there. I'd be dead. They were eating. Oh, my goodness. Enterprise, car rentals, ladies and gentlemen. So eventually I get this guy. I said look, I'm not leaving because I got no way to go anywhere. Why don't you try and find me? You have to have a car somewhere in your system. I'll get another Uber and I'll go get it. So anyway that.
Speaker 2You can walk through and logger what happened.
Speaker 5Well, it's a long story. We can get you one by three o'clock, but you go and pick it up over here at this place. Okay, fine, terrific, you know. So you can have it tomorrow. I said, no, I need it today. So, all right, three o'clock, terrific. Now what was supposed to happen at three yesterday? Yeah, we were supposed to record, but that didn't happen. But that's okay, and in the meantime I go and see my doctor and nurse practitioner, who I'm sure would be happy to help you out, chris.
Speaker 2Let me guess I showed you you have two weeks to live, is that it?
Speaker 5That's right. No, that's the one.
Speaker 2We can have a show every day. I won't be so busy anymore, okay.
Speaker 5So anyway, so all right. So now we're home. Right Now I'm home and I have a new car and no car. No car, no car. I've taken another Uber back here and this is 30 bucks a time. This is getting expensive fast. So I had to go to my doctor's appointment. So, all right, fine, get the motorcycle out right, go do my doctor thing and come back. And actually she said that she writes as well. We must, we must write together. It'd be kind of fun, anyway.
Speaker 5So then they gets better and better. It's like okay, time to go and get the other car or to get a car. So then we travel, chris, I don't know, 20 miles in yet another Uber. Get there, hi, I've come to pick up my car. What car? The car that you were talking, we talked about this morning? Oh, we don't have any cars, that's it. And this is another location. This is another location. Okay, so, making making this story a little less as long as so I keep my. You know I'm keeping my composure because I've learned it's far better that way. But they can tell I'm like she said well, sir, we will do the best we can. I said you better, or I'm going to start crying.
Speaker 2So, and they did get me a car Boy crying for it right here. So I think that's probably, but it worked well. Where'd they find?
Speaker 5the car. So I have a little, a little shit box of a car. What is that thing? It's a Hyundai box. It's a little thing.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 5It's sort of it's a little black box with blacked out windows. We'll never get stopped by the cops. That'll never happen.
Speaker 5So, all right. So you think, okay, your days going pretty well, costello, isn't it? Well, no, it's not, because everywhere in the last month, everywhere I have gone, I've had to have my cell phone with me which records my blood sugar and all that good stuff, and this other thing that looks just like a cell phone, that is a heart monitor. Well, I get. You know how you get that nagging feeling in the very back of your brain. I haven't seen that in a while. I'm supposed to keep this thing with me 24, seven, that's it. You know, charging, whatever, and I've been doing that.
Speaker 5And it's like well, I tell you, it's not here, it's not there. Oh shit, I end up calling up the you all. What three Ubers that I was in. And, of course, the enterprise people who are absolutely not very good that, by the way, is enterprise car rental, who absolutely suck, and of course they don't have it.
Speaker 2They haven't seen it, so you're pissed off, right. Very pissed off there you go, pissed off All right?
Speaker 5Well, because I'm liable for this damn thing now. So some of them Are you losing, or do someone take it?
Speaker 3I think so.
Speaker 5I think somebody stole it because it looks just like a nice cell phone and I, you know, I just probably wasn't paying attention. I had two cell phones with me mine a cell phone, I had a back.
Speaker 2Easton, where you live. Somebody stole it.
Speaker 5Yeah, well, it's actually a surprise. Probably an enterprise car rental, I think it was probably where it happened. Did I mention it was enterprise? You did yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2You live in, you know Redneck, white Trash, south Carolina. So yeah, Well you know what.
Speaker 5Actually I was looking at Charleston on.
Speaker 2Oh see that those like there are good places to live in that state Charleston, mount Pleasant, kiowa Island, hilton Head. Oh yeah, you want to live in Columbia.
Speaker 5Yeah Well, I didn't have that much money. Actually, I was looking at some have to probably be North Charleston, I think, but there were some nice houses around there, and then, of course, I'm looking at Savannah as well, so which I was doing initially and it would be better than North Charleston.
Speaker 2Oh, it would be okay.
Speaker 5Oh, it's a lot cheaper down there too. You don't want to be a North Charleston Now, okay, right message received.
Speaker 2Okay, you giving the hint this time. Okay, to listen to me. I am this time. Yeah, listen to me on the North Charleston. Okay.
Speaker 5Okay, right, not north Charleston. Good, all right, it was good.
Speaker 2So we both have reason to be pissed off, you know so.
Speaker 5You just let that a little bit go by the way. But the thing I have learned Not to let, not to get so incredibly upset about stupid shit. I can't do anything about it anyway. I mean, you know, sometimes it's a little bit pissed off, but I mean I used to be horrible, you know. I mean, boy, I've oh shit, I'd lose it. You know, my, my ears are turned bright red and I'd just be like red fit To you know you can't do that. When you got high blood pressure, my dear friend, you'll fall over and then be a lot of time again.
Speaker 2But some things say things are so blatantly stupidly bad and you don't want to get pissed off, but you just, you just it's the best way to go.
Speaker 5Yes, oh, I agree, I mean good scream. Yeah, you know, as a matter of fact, way horse.
Speaker 2Today. I was screaming yesterday.
Speaker 5You know, when I was, when I my first tour over here back in the 80s, we're in this club called the mabuhay in San Francisco and, and I don't know, things must have just been not going right or something. So I just went outside and just just just yell, I Shoot myself off. 10 or 15, 10 or 15 years later I've moved to. Well, I moved to America first of all because I hadn't moved yet and I end up in in Vegas Must be good. Probably 15 years later, I suppose maybe more, and I meet this guy called Darren who works for or used to work for on Cori. He used to work for lots of bands, like we worked for Mollie crew, we worked for Barry Manilow of all people. Anyway, we were pretty good friends.
Speaker 2Very. Manilow is working for Mollie crew.
Trump Supporters at Republican Primaries
Speaker 5You know the gig, a gig is a gig, right anyway. So you know we were talking about people. We knew when we first met him and he's yeah, I remember you. You're out the back of the mabuhay screaming. I go, you weren't there. I said, yes, I was Unbelievable.
Speaker 2Yeah, I'm good, scream costella.
Speaker 5Yeah. I had a lot to let out.
Speaker 2You know there's good reasons to scream sometime in Vegas, I mean cuz you know they're have this Bedbug issue going on out there. Well, this is guy. He's saying it's an issue, okay, okay. And he woke up screaming bloody murder, probably like a Costello scream because his nuts are hurt. Okay, yeah, I mean I'm wasting his nuts on fire and he looks down and there's a scorpion stung him in the nuts.
Speaker 5Oh, that's a big bedbug, isn't it?
Speaker 2How do you get a scorpion up on like the 25th floor of Venetian? That's the same way. Bedbug hit there. I guess I like yes.
Speaker 5Well, they can. They can cry up and climb up a wall currently.
Speaker 2I.
Speaker 2Guess, so I got stung by one in my underwear drawer when I was a kid, but I was on the. I was on a ranch home on the first floor, you know. So I live in the south. Like you see, get all those weird things, yeah. So I don't like to be they hurt. I can imagine it's someone's singing you in the nuts, you know, I really imagine nobody's soon to Venetian, for, but still they got. They got like 80% of the hotels have bedbugs in Vegas. They're really trying to solve the problem and now you get scorpion stinging people in the nuts. It's a Four-star hotel.
Speaker 5Do you think they're gonna? He's gonna sue them. I don't know whether he could or not. Of course he is. Yeah, you can find an attorney, that doesn't Not be a problem. Yeah, but there's some shit, cool, ed.
Speaker 2I'm sorry. You know what he, what he wasn't. That happened, he was pissed off man. I About to get a super Tuesday thing going on. Oh, I was thinking about you know why Trump keeps hanging around? A very simple reason. Okay, uh-huh, two words.
Speaker 5Well, yeah, that's all, that's there.
Speaker 2No, that's all. That votes for him. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I was. Barked Barkley was funny the other day because a lot of the maggot people wearing shirts now Trump's hoodshot, and it says wanted from for president. I'm going. Oh god, charles Barkley, was I see a bus? You black guy wearing one of those things? I'm gonna punch him in the face, we'll come out here.
Speaker 5There there are people who, who, who, like yes, yes, no way man I are listen what?
Speaker 2why the hell would a black person support Trump? He's, he's biased against you. He's a big it. I mean, what do you that stupid? I was the same like like it like an Hispanic going on for the iPhone Trump? Well, of course you're not he has.
Speaker 5I've made a few like that too, and you know why? I'll tell you why. His spanics are. You are to what. You know why? It's because they they've come over here, set up everything nice and what have you? Okay, you know, they obviously had to go through all the shit to get here and build a new life, and they resent the people who just jump over the wall. So well, we didn't, we went the right way screw you.
Speaker 2You know what. They jump over the wall. Yeah, they get caught, they get detained and they get sent back. Okay, I mean so? I mean there's three groups basically who, just look at this with the majority of these people, denies it for Trump. That was the blacks, hispanics, jews emails okay.
Speaker 5Do you think the Jewish population support him? They shouldn't either, really.
Speaker 2They hate him, absolutely hate him. I will be the greatest president that God ever created.
Speaker 5Excuse me, I'm having a bowel movement.
Speaker 2I'm pooping out of Trump. Okay, yeah, whoa, really rich? No, you're not. You broke. You got to pay all that money out. Any cash you had is gone. Man, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know this is freaking white people. I mean, if you look at it, what is it? You went to a rally. You saw what you saw. I mean, you know it's there.
Speaker 5I spoke to a couple of people there.
Speaker 2Were they white.
Speaker 5Yes, because that's, but there were some black people there too. I'm just like shaking my head, going what? Just to point you to the woman.
Speaker 2Primarily, I'm on killer's ass. I'm on killer's ass. They're just there out of curiosity, man, come on.
Speaker 5They? Well, it could be. I don't think so, would you like. I did take a little recorder with me and I managed to get a couple of questions out before I got chased off. What are?
Speaker 2the feature. We do from time to time, stupid shit. People say, yeah, yeah, this could be it, right? I mean, these are MAGA people. Yeah, it's not that. Maga people aren't college educated, they're white, they're stupid. They think he's going to do stuff for them. He doesn't do anything to them. He hates you, he's just out for himself. He wants to get president, so all those charges will go away. There's four years of no one bugging him okay.
Speaker 5Oh, and talking about bugging him or anything, of course there's his wife. Where is his wife? So I decided to ask and this is, excuse me, sir, yeah, yeah, you, hey, listen, do you know where Melania is? Trunks wife.
Speaker 6I'd say it's none of your goddamn business God forgive me for that that outburst you some kind of commie, pinko Boy Boy. Yes, pinko. No, putin's not a Pinko commie. We had him all wrong. Downey is his friend, you know. So he'd know, you know, you know.
Speaker 2So I heard commie Pinko in a long time. That's kind of there you go, maga people.
Speaker 5Okay, so there was that Shep.
Speaker 2That went over well. Yeah, okay, don't diss Melania. Okay, that went well.
Speaker 5You want to get out of there alive. It was just, by the way, I have to. It was extremely windy, which is why that's what you can hear, okay.
Speaker 2So there's a full bunch of blowhard idiots. That's why it's windy. So I'm just pissed off at white people, Costello.
Speaker 5And go ahead. Costello here and I am in the middle of South Carolina, in Columbia, right now, where they're having the Republican primaries. Trump's societies is already one which is kind of interesting and as I look around here right now, there's Secret Service and Police and everybody, and mainly old people. This is kind of weird. But wait a minute, hang on Over here. Come here, young man, come here. You look like a kind of Trump supporter, the kind of guy that Trump would like. Nice and young, he's the guy. So you like older men? That is what I'm taking. He's the guy. So what do you think of his politics? You know immigrants and all that kind of thing. It's a bit of a racist past.
Speaker 4Well, I mean, to be honest, I'm not really into that, all political stuff, and I'm not, you know, die hard nothing. But if there's I mean I've lived through when he was president and things were better, and how it is now it's just for my future. You know, I got to hold my whole life ahead of me it just thinks you need to get better. You know he's the guy.
Speaker 5I don't get it. You know, apart from the fact this kid was too young to even remember Trump's presidency, it's a political thing.
Speaker 2He was like I'm not in it for the politics and stuff. What are you, stupid shit. What are you there for? You're in a political rally, old white men, apparently? I guess not. I probably won't stare at him, I'm not into politics and stuff, but he's the guy, he's the guy. Why is he the guy? Because he said so, he said so. I just do what he says.
Parody Songs Mocking Trump
Speaker 5Yeah yeah, that's right, because we're a few days late. I had all these fabulous ideas of things we're going to do and some of them I did and forgot that I did them, and this is one of them, and, providing that this works and it should, I have found, and actually this is a great idea. I think in the run up there there are a lot of songs that just poke fun at Mr Trump. Okay, there are all. There is one by my namesake, elvis Costello.
Speaker 2Oh, he did one really.
Speaker 5Well, no, but he wrote the song Veronica, and this is kind of like a read up to it. What's in that pretty little head of hers? Does she even have a place to?
Speaker 8survive Whether it used to be a girl from Slovenia and her name was Melania. Well, I heard she speaks five different languages If you count hello and goodbye. These days, I'm afraid she can't even say for three. No, please declassify.
Speaker 3There is a pose some time before he dies. Melania was testified. She's only. She could ask Michelle for one more speech to plagiarize Melania, melania, melania.
Speaker 8With the trials that I did his money, wayne, did he post on true social tonight? Really, wake from a dream with a wolf at the door like Bonnie or La Pichina? Well, it was just a few short years ago. She was trapped in the White House with him and written on her jacket was I really don't care, it was chosen by Melania. When she told him she, was with child the only days would follow close behind as she was forced to work on Christmas shift she told the White House got him out.
Speaker 3There is a pose some time before he dies. Melania was testified. She's only. She could ask Michelle for one more speech to plagiarize Melania, melania, melania.
Speaker 8Melania sits in her favorite chair and she sits very quiet and still as he calls her Mercedes, and that is not right and her life's only going downhill. But she used to have a carefree mind of her own, with a devilish squint to her eyes, saying you can call me anything you like, but my name is Melania.
Speaker 3There is a pose some time before he dies. Melania was testified. If only she could ask Michelle for one more speech to plagiarize Melania, melania.
Speaker 5Melania Pretty good huh.
Speaker 2Yeah, I thought it was great. Could you really hear it? Not a damn thing.
Speaker 5Well, listen, you and I heard something really fun there. What I think we'll do, we'll have to have like a whole show of all these songs, and you know what? Just true, well, it's an idea. We'll treat it like, you know, like a shift, basically like we used to do, and they can just be all songs by people who are taking the piss out of Trump. That, by the way, was a gentleman called Patrick Fitzgerald. I think we should definitely give him credit for that, because that is extremely Yep, that's not like bad.
Speaker 2I like a love of good parody song man, I really do.
Speaker 5You'll love this when you get to hear it. That's why I pre-recorded it anyway. So never mind, damn.
Speaker 2Well, you know, I don't know why I could near, because I heard, you know the mag of people. Why would I be able to hear the damn song?
Speaker 5Because it's coming off YouTube and not coming straight off my computer. That's why, and there used to be a little box when we did zoom. There was a way to fix that, but I have not found a way to fix it on this thing yet. So there we go. Chris is thinking you'd be. He would be way more enthusiastic if he could have actually have heard it. But next to the speak you'll hear it sometimes when you like it.
Speaker 2Having a pissed-off day I was a bad thing, but I love a good parody song though, so I'm Thanks to the your wonderful engineering skills. I wasn't able to, of course, I.
Speaker 5Blame me. Oh that's not true I. Remember. A new shift going. Hey, chris man, you got two songs running at the same time.
Speaker 2Oh and you're glad I heard nothing. I mean, come on, I'm just making sure there's no dead air.
Speaker 5You're very sure. Well, I mean, you know, this is my sampling young dude, two songs together. That was before sampling. Don't give me that shit.
Speaker 2Before sampling wasn't before BS before sampling.
Speaker 5It's old BS, yeah well look that one up.
Speaker 2Here's the Castellas show on regular radio.
Speaker 5That's right yeah, well, the only. The one of the good things about doing a podcast is obviously. I'm not a fan of the Fun live. You know, whatever happened, happened have you said, you said every day you know was right out there I, if that was a case, I would have done something completely different, but now I have learned just to relax and find a way out of it. And yeah, cut all that, cut all that bit out and ends up on the editing room floor. And there you go.
Speaker 2You can't be like these other podcasts. We won't mention my name. You know they, they, oh, snip it and do this. It's just like all perfect sounding. What fun is that, you know, have to find? Is it when, when things go wrong? That's what always makes it fun things.
Speaker 5Then they do.
Speaker 2They want to hear us screwing up. They would hear things that go wrong.
Speaker 5Well then, you know, have this big conflict of interest here because you don't care, but I do.
Speaker 2I do guess just that's just entertaining things go why? Because it happens every week.
Speaker 5It does.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, hey, it's, it's fun. You'll find it funny. It was when you, when you screw up, it's, it's funny, it's always.
Speaker 5It's because nothing we do is scripted and everything is just off the cuff. So there, well, yeah, there's some things are.
Speaker 2No, you don't have an idea of script stuff in mind. We Well, we kind of work around it, do it a little bit, don't do it. We just don't know what's gonna be you don't indeed talking of which it's.
Speaker 5It's coming to that time of year, spring, when young men's thought turn to eggs and Stuff and reproducing and doing things like that, which has absolutely nothing to do with our next competition. Now, would you like to hear?
Speaker 2about this? I'm afraid to. Yeah, we're talking about fertilization here. Is that we're gonna be doing? Be spreading our pollen around there. A little dip there.
Speaker 5Here we go for that's probably illegal here in South Carolina by now. No, is it that?
Speaker 2special man, you can. You can spread your pollen everywhere, especially in your own family.
Speaker 5Yeah, oh well, yeah, but I mean apparently here even I think let me see, you can't have an abortion, you can't have IV fertilization. Let me see, an egg is a person. So therefore, if I was a woman and I menstruate, I'm murdering people, boy, hey, you know what? Then they? Oh wow, eggs, ladies and gentlemen, eggs, eggs, particularly Easter eggs. Now, if you know what an Easter egg is, a computer type Easter egg, a Internet Easter egg and I think a lot of you probably do this is something relation to our show, which every week it does we like you?
Speaker 2I can just I. You laid about three eggs today so far.
Speaker 5We have put an Easter egg on our website. Chris and Costello, comm. If you can find that Easter egg. It ain't big and I'll give you a clue, it ain't pretty. But if you can find that Easter egg, simply email us, chris and Costello, at yahoocom. Now. This is important because, chris, we're gonna have prizes, right. Well, there's always price.
Speaker 2Oh, here's the thing. What color is our Easter egg?
Speaker 5Ah well, you see, that's the thing. And Easter egg Is. I mean, don't go looking for an Easter egg, because that's not what you're looking for. What you're looking for is something.
Speaker 2It said that's listening. We're looking for an Easter egg now, when I was looking for a store it's called an Easter egg.
Speaker 5It could be the size of a pixel, okay, or it?
Speaker 3could be.
Speaker 5Well, that's the idea. And so what do prizes mean, mr Bailey?
Speaker 2Well, of course, if we're talking prizes on our show, we are talking about money.
Speaker 5Yes, money. So there you go. Undetermined amount of money will be yours, but you've you have to find. And if you don't find it, if you think you found it, email us at Chris and Costello at Yahoocom. You know what we're gonna have to. I'm gonna have to change that. Well, we could make it a Chris and Costello at chris and Costellocom, or. Dead aircom or dead aircom we. Well, you know that radio station we were gonna buy, we should. We should call it dead air FM.
Speaker 2Yeah, definitely you like that you should on your show. Yeah, so so we're giving, we're giving away money.
Speaker 5Okay, we're giving copious amounts of cash Money. You have to go to our website, which is chris and Costello, at. Oh, chris and Costellocom. I'm sorry, I'm getting confused here. That's the website. Go there and look Very, very carefully and, if you see, if you can find the Easter egg, all right, there's a bunch of you out there. I know exactly what I'm talking about. Good, this is your chance to make some money. So how much? So how much change?
Speaker 2you have in your body.
Speaker 5Say how much copious amounts of money Garranteed by his willingness to be our next president, who will not be mentioned also, oh sorry, copious, copious, yes, in fact, a copious dollar these days is worth about three in a bush.
Speaker 2Bush then if then he was saying three in a bush oh yeah, your neighbors hiding a window. Three in a bush.
Speaker 5Which which one a bird in the hand is worth three in a bush. I Don't really make Three in the bush.
Speaker 2It's like you're telling your neighbors.
Speaker 5It's an old English saying. I wouldn't expect you to get it talking to that. We are on podcast radio now.
Speaker 2All right, this is you have a list of markets, by the way. We so you know we can say out of folks what markets are we in?
Speaker 5Oh, you would ask that. I'll tell you what we are in the South South America, the American South market.
Speaker 2The American South market. We're the only one in the South. Okay, so we're in Charlotte, right.
Speaker 5That's what I was trying to tell you, but you kept.
Speaker 2But again, charlotte, atlanta, atlanta and Jacksonville, I believe are we on in Scotland and Ireland yet as well?
Speaker 5Yes, yeah, yeah we're all over.
Speaker 2We're all over that when we go to France. Maybe it's time to go to France.
Speaker 5We need to be in France all over the world on the internet, but as far as being actually on on the air, so to speak, we're on the American side there.
Speaker 2So, and we're also on the Ukraine now on station WD UK duck radio.
Speaker 5How long did it take you to come up with that one? That was good.
Speaker 3Duck 94.1.
Speaker 2Oh boy, and come on the hits. Yes, sir, the two-faced model for the turn emoji.
Speaker 5All right, yeah, you've got to find the Easter egg. Copious amounts of cash sitting copious.
Speaker 2Over the world and we don't. We don't even know where. That's just that we're on top of it, man.
Speaker 5We, we are only, we are on the air, on planet Earth, man, we can put it that way. Sure, I'll work. It could, couldn't you? In fact, they can even pick up FM signals all the way to them to the moon. I, oh, yes, they can.
Speaker 2Yes, they can WLS.
Speaker 5On the moon, on the moon, there we go, oh goodness me Big were bad, but Nationwide were everywhere.
Speaker 2Did you know?
Speaker 5that I said this the other day. No, I'm sorry. The other Kelsey brother was going to retire and he did.
Speaker 2Well, there was hints that after the he plays for Philadelphia and they lost their playoff game. Right, he was dropping hints and stuff like that's it for me. You're saying goodbye to teammates. He didn't want to make it official yet because he wanted to let Super Bowl get over there. He wanted to take that tension away from his brother. So yeah it's a good idea.
Speaker 5Yeah, he did so. He was crying and everything. What is it with people these days Now? I mean that was probably genuine emotion, but have you noticed on You're?
Speaker 2telling stories about them as young brothers. Again this going. You know they did. They show stupid. You know how long his retirement speech was that day. I mean you saw bits and pieces. It was freaking 45 minutes.
Speaker 5Oh, bloody hell, I'd be slow, I'd be in the back.
Speaker 2But what if there was Harry's self up there for 45 minutes?
Speaker 5man, I'll be yelling things like hey, listen, bow, we're not all retired now. Oh yes, we are One signature away, bailey. One signature away, One away.
Speaker 2Anyway, you said that he's gone?
Speaker 5Yeah, he's, he's, yeah. But you know, have you noticed, though, that these people, especially on well, not mainly like interview, ease on if he was alive, jerry Springer on anything, anything, oprah or something, and there's usually men and they start. Sorry, I was going to do this, but my dog took a shit. Oh Jesus, I'm going to live.
Speaker 2I understand if you're retiring from you know you've been. You played football high school, college and you've been in the pros for 13 years and you're only like your mid 30s and you got to say goodbye because you just it's an eight. It's an eight, you just can't do it anymore. The young guys take over on this. Your time is done. So you got your whole life ahead of it. They kind of freeze people out because they're going. I won't be doing football anymore, so I'm sure we'll look at that hairy monkey on, you know, as an announcer somewhere. You know.
Radio Station Planning and Political Banter
Speaker 5Well, I mean, I think that's that's, that's understandable. What I'm saying, though, Chris, is all these other people you know, on some of the, even these smaller markets, they have these people you know. Just just any interviewing they, they always seem to end up crying. Yeah, I wasn't Excuse me, man. I mean, I'm famous, people do it too. It seems like okay, cry on cue.
Speaker 2Now I made this decision to retire from regular radio.
Speaker 7Did you?
Speaker 2cry, Did I cry? Did you cry? No, there you go. I mean they screwed it up so bad. I mean radio wasn't fun anymore. So it was like it was like time ago, so I was okay. I think I had a great time, had a great run, but they've deregulated it so much in this. All homogenized now with, like, big groups owning large amounts of stations, it's just not fun anymore. So it was okay.
Speaker 5Exactly, exactly, so here's what we should do.
Speaker 2You're in a brain, thought Okay, yeah, it would be good yeah. We were saying what.
Speaker 5Okay, what I was? I was just. I was just thinking that we should have our own radio station. We tried this before, so let's send everybody to christen costello at yahoocom If you think that you would like a christen costello radio station. Well, you know, we're going to check into.
Speaker 2They have this thing where it's on radioco, you know where you can build your it's like, it's like a radio thing for radio people. So I was reading some of the people who made their own stations. I've always wanted to own my own station, but you don't really own your own station. You're doing like an internet thing, you know, and you can just lay down as much content as you want music, or why would you? Why would you put music on? You can pick music up anywhere, unless you get some really like us, like a bunch of really good parody songs that people just can't find or can't hear somewhere, and that would be a cause, you know. But otherwise, you know, I mean this, this radio thing is like it's radio for radio people to have your own radio station but they get 50,000 freaking separate stuff on there Once against overcrowded like podcast. You know there's too much stuff I'm actually listening to. You know I'm listening to you know I'm listening to.
Speaker 5I had some really good ideas last night and I didn't write them down. So I'm going to take the same drugs tonight and make sure I go Same combination. Maybe the same thoughts come back to you right? Well, I just you know I really did. I thought, wow, that's a great idea.
Speaker 2We just wouldn't, we just do the redneck man, We'll just get on that thing you see we could, exactly.
Speaker 5We could do that. We could do it for an hour or we could do it for 24 hours. I mean, in fact, think about this for a moment. Right, you've got redneck FM, yeah, copy of written Chris and Costello 2024. So you could, you could have that and and then, you know, just just have 24 hours of it put together. You know, over time, because I'm going to send it for 24 hours any more than I would. So we make this thing right and then, suddenly, you know, people start to go what's this redneck thing going on here?
Speaker 2You know, I mean, the thing is so, so we did, we did our own, we, we, we. We've been wanting to do this format, so we do the redneck and it's on. It's an internet radio station, so so how do you go listen to it? You got to, you got to sign on, you know, I guess you can hear it through your, your phone, I guess you do mobile.
Speaker 5I guess, but it's just, it's just a lot of it's a lot of. You would find it as as as you would, a podcast.
Speaker 2But can you get it through your car radio so you have good sound, you know?
Speaker 5Sure, you can. Yeah, you can. If you can get it on your phone, you can get it in your car radio. Of course, it depends how old your car is.
Speaker 2So we can do two formats or three formats. We can do just Kristin Castello, fun stuff, okay, yeah, then we can do the redneck.
Speaker 8Yeah.
Speaker 2And then we can do 100.5 dead air. Okay, yeah, that would be mine. It should be the easiest download we just just I gave it to you. I had this in the background. I was like what are you doing? What are you doing Hotline? Oh gosh.
Speaker 5We format.
Speaker 2man, we got dead air, we have the redneck and they just just just us as our entertaining badass cells. You know what?
Speaker 5If you, if you go to YouTube, you will find the people have actually put up like hours or 24 hours of nothing and you know how many thousands, thousands, and there's one of them. It has a like somebody rang a bell, rings the bell. So once a one on one is to the other end and people have actually listened to it.
Speaker 2I know there's just so much stuff out there, you know. So if we're going to do something, we just got to make it damn good, you know? Oh, absolutely.
Speaker 5Yes, oh and the well, that would be really, I mean really kind of. I mean to me and I guess to you, because you're a radio guy, you know, I think, I think I'm just going shit, that'd be great. And people say well, you know, we're going to make you money at it. Well, I don't know if I really care about. I mean, I do and I don't. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2I'm kind of fond of money, but it'd be nice to make something Okay.
Speaker 5I mean one. All it takes is one of the formats to kind of like take off or become a thing. It'd be nice once we get like a copious check. You know a copious check, yes, yes. Well, copious checks usually come in little brown envelopes and they jingle I mean.
Speaker 2Mind you, I don't think we can get. So we're going to look into that. So there's a possibility if you folks that have an interest you want to just go check it out so we may put together the red neck, the Kristen Costello station and then, of course, the dead air FM.
Speaker 5A dead air FM and well, we could also go down the political road. In fact, you see, that was something else. That was indeed one of the better ideas I had. I thought, hey, let's do this All right, without actually saying you know what political side of the fence we are on is pretty obvious, but anyway. But we can have a whole station just dedicated to obviously silly songs about Trump, or maybe make a good, good, good. But all candidates out there there's all kinds of fun stuff. Yeah, I mean, we could just just rail on them every time they open their mouth and like November, man, we get a long way to go, and it's going to be an awful lot of stuff, I mean.
Speaker 2I mean it could be we can get some fresh meat up there and just make this election fun. You know what I mean.
Speaker 5Oh, God, don't they just? I mean it's just, I mean that's what it's like. Well, okay, trump, why don't you just quit then? Or Biden, why don't you just forget how to get to the White House?
Speaker 2And the hot room that you know that Michelle Obama's going to step in and just take more of Biden, and she shot that down. Yes, he goes. I'm not doing that. Why would you want to do that? You get this nice life and stuff. I mean, a year ago didn't you you up there up against Trump and she did. She want to hear the crap he's going to say about her for the next eight months. Why would she want that?
Speaker 5I think, I think.
Speaker 2Yeah, I'm running against Michelle Obama. Oh, she's black. Oh God she's also a female. I'm going to grab her by the pussy, Okay.
Speaker 5I wonder where a husband is. I would like to hear Hillary Clinton come back. I think that would be hilarious and I think it wouldn't be a bad idea. What do you think about them?
Speaker 2Making themselves available again for the selection cycle. They did kind of like, been quiet for a while. So they're coming back to help out.
Speaker 5They're going to be visible, they're going to campaign for the president, so we'll see, we'll see, they'll be there when he trips down the steps from Air Force One.
