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).

Intro and Radio Reminiscing
Speaker 1I kind of like that's the Kristen Costello theme song. It certainly is. It's right up there with famous theme songs of many shows, right up there with the Tonight Show theme.
Speaker 2It's up there. This is from Radio London. We'll see it in a minute. It's right up there with the.
Speaker 1Jefferson theme song moving up to the east side. Yeah, our song is just classic. Yep, it's classic, all right, Radio.
Speaker 2Big L.
Speaker 1Classic rock is just classic.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 1What the hell's going on, what the hell drives you, boy?
Speaker 2Well, that was the Big L theme and that's what we do here at the original Canceled Radio Guys, Now known as the Canceled Radio Guys.
Speaker 1You're like your bachelor Castello. I don't know what the hell drives you. It looks like you're in one of those padded rooms. Do you have a jacket to go with that? I am in a padded room, You're in there.
Speaker 2Yeah, we do, we do Duck.
Speaker 1Awards today. It's a big, big, big show man Duck Awards. Getting ready for Super Bowl. I wore my team jacket today, my Atlanta Falcons. Are we in the Super Bowl? Hell, no. Are we going to be in there anytime soon? Hell, no, hell, no, we're in the Super Bowl, as everyone remembers. I hear it all the time. We were there in 2016. And everyone goes oh, you're from Atlanta and everyone goes 28-3. 28-3. Sick of hearing it. You know we were ahead 28-3. Brady comes back and they win because they had that dipshit, cal Shanahan calling plays and just running the ball so he can get another field goal. Win the game? Nope, let me just keep being creative. He's never won one Cincinnati, so I hope he never does it. He's cursed. We put the curse on Cal Shanahan. We put the curse on Dan Quinn, who was our ex-coach then, who coached the Washington Commanders this year and he played in the NFC Championship game. He got his ass kicked big time. So that's for you guys, costing us the 28-3, okay 28-3.
Speaker 2Wow, how embarrassing is that. Mind you, that's not as bad as. It's pretty embarrassing, thank you, there's some embarrassing things going on the last couple of weeks of the NFL, but we're NFL-less now.
Speaker 1Well, I was just doing the Kelsey brothers, like what.
Speaker 2Well, actually there's a good point, isn't it? Gosh, it's long enough ago.
Speaker 1I can't remember the… let's play the sound effect Dementia, dementia, dementia, Brain loss brain loss, brain loss. Braindead, braindead, braindead.
Speaker 2You're definitely brain damaged when it comes to NFL.
Speaker 1But you know so my Falcon thing, it didn't say 23. It just says Falcons. Okay, falcons yes, we'll leave it at that and see what happens to us in the future, okay, well, we'll never know, will we? We didn't even make the playoffs this year. But, you know, I don't care, I'm in a good mood because it is Super Bowl week. Super Bowl Sunday is strictly an American thing, even though the viewership is like man through the you-know-what.
Speaker 1So some of the commercials I've seen have you seen any of the previous some of the commercials? They look really funny?
Speaker 2I haven't. That's usually the best part of the whole thing. It depends. Like I say, I only generally watch the fourth quarter because that's when everything's decided.
Speaker 1Not on this game, dude. You get all the pregame stuff. Who's going to sing the national anthem? Who's going to sing America the Beautiful? Who's in the commercial start? You've got to watch the whole deal, man. There's all kinds of stuff going on.
Speaker 2After the election guess what happened in Canada when they played America the Beautiful? They booed us, they did.
Speaker 1Don't blame them they're pissed but our Canadian friends? The tariff thing is not our idea and our question is and even the people who voted for him hope you're happy you voted for him are going why do those tariffs for him? Because who's going to pay for him? That'd be us.
Speaker 2Yeah, that will be us. Or maybe we just can't afford to live anymore.
Speaker 1Yeah, I mean he withdrew the ones for Canada and Mexico because he said they've worked out some arrangements and some deals. Okay, but the one's in place big time for China. Leave it in place for China. I don't care, that's China calling me right now. Leave me alone. They're going stop the tariffs. No, we're not going to stop anything. So it's okay, that's okay with you, right, china? Cool, yeah, that's okay with you right, china, cool, yeah.
Speaker 2Well, do you know how much stuff is made in China? You buy that Chinese stuff. What do you buy?
Speaker 1Give me something that you have and you own right now that you use on a daily, weekly basis. That's from China.
Speaker 2Go on. That's from China.
Speaker 1Probably the microphone, probably the microphone you're talking into.
Speaker 2Possibly. I don't know if it's just made in Japan.
Speaker 1The computer, the speakers Speaking of this stuff, costello and our wonderful new producer, social media director, chelsea. You guys made me buy a new microphone and board and all this stuff, you know. So I hope you're happy. This is the last show where I'll sound like shit. I'll sound like a little tin can or a Castello.
Speaker 2It's a deep microphone where it talks like this On a tin can radio, you know, with a string and everything last week and um.
Speaker 1I started my career, like you did, in AM radio. That's just the way it sounded.
Speaker 2I had a job in AM radio. You know what it was. I was the guy in the background going whistling.
Speaker 1You were the sound effect guy.
Speaker 2Yeah, sound effects from AM radio Used to whistle at you. That's all you did.
Speaker 1That was my job.
Speaker 2Yes, indeed, that was my job.
Speaker 1They paid you for that. Wow, Did you do? The fart noises as well too. Those come naturally to you now.
Speaker 2Well, they do. Now, of course, you're absolutely correct. Hang on a second, there we go. That was an effing fart.
Speaker 1I'll tell you that was better than your whistle, just so you know.
Speaker 2Well, I'm very out of practice, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1I used to go for whistle therapy, but you know as you guys know, here's my new little mixing board which is going to be hooked up to my new little microphone. It's on our podcast next week. Oh, something like I used to like a professional, well-paid broadcaster.
Speaker 2Better explain to our new listeners. I'm sure there's a few out there that haven't heard of the Doak Awards. Doak Turner was a guy we worked with in West Bag of Virginia both of us, in fact. Chris was his boss too. Oh no, you weren't, somebody else was general manager and what made Doak unique. What was?
Speaker 1it.
Speaker 2Do tell.
Speaker 1Well, he sat talking like this. He just thought he was the greatest gift in the world. Doak is the only guy I ever met who in his whole life has never been to the dentist Never. When you flash the picture of the Doak horse, you can see what the Doak's name. After You'll see what I'm talking about. When was the last time we saw Doak? We saw Doak about three or four years ago in person, I guess.
Speaker 2You did, didn't you?
Speaker 1Yeah, we did, and you know he looks like he's in his fourth trimester, getting ready to give birth. His teeth have still gone awful, and you know, and he's still a lonely guy.
Speaker 2And his dog died. He's his very own country song. He's a country songwriter as well, and you can.
Speaker 1Google people and I bet you put in the word Doke. How many people are you going to find in this country who are named Doke? Not many.
Super Bowl Week Talk
Speaker 2One name will come up. We did this last time, actually, and there was a famous footballer called Doke. What was his last name? Not first, I don't know. No one's name is first name.
Speaker 1There's our little baby boy. Let's name him, honey. He looks like a Doak Doak. D-o-a-k.
Speaker 2Doak. Anyhow, we decided to make a lot of fun of this guy.
Speaker 1It's just been good, yeah, he's a Trumper.
Speaker 2It's just been good.
Speaker 1Yeah, he's a, he's a trumper, he's a Baptist Bible thumper, you know.
Speaker 2And everybody else he looks down upon with his crooked teeth, yep, yep. And so we decided we'd do the Doak Awards. Yeah, that was a couple of years ago now, so we thought we'd revive them.
Speaker 1There's an annual coming up today and it's like you saw, like you saw the Grammys. You know what the Grammys are. You saw the songs. It was, you know. The best new artist category was awesome. A lot of good new artists I like a lot. I love Teddy Swims man, he's great and Elk Chapel they're all good. So that was a good category. Now it's time for the dokes. When you say doke, or you say it properly, how do you say doke, doke, that's right, doke.
Speaker 1It's like someone just goosed you to just sit on something like that. That works best, okay.
Speaker 2It's usually when something goes terribly wrong, which is probably going to happen here, because I had all this stuff sorted out.
Speaker 1It's going to happen. Today. Everyone's having a Super Bowl first. Are you placing any bets on the game Sunday?
Speaker 2I don't think I can. I'm in South Carolina.
Speaker 1Why not you just do it on your phone, man?
Speaker 2No, you can't, it won't.
Speaker 1Let you, I try why would it let you do it on the phone in South Carolina?
Speaker 2Somehow they know you're in South Carolina, even though I don't have an 803.
Speaker 1Well, you can't do it in Nevada because the casinos block it. They want you to go out to the sports book and bet there. So I understand why you can't do it in Nevada. You have no casinos or crap in South Carolina. Why can't you bet football on your phone?
Speaker 2Because it's an instrument of the devil.
Speaker 1Ooh, that damn Southern Baptist crap coming right back to bite you in the butt. Yep, it used to be. You bet the game, win the lose, you bet the point spread. Then there was some side bets. You know, like the coin toss is going to be heads or tails, who's going to score the first touchdown? Is it going to be run or pass? You know that type of stuff. And how many yards per each team, total yards per game, things related to the game. Now you can bet pretty much on anything up there. So the biggest betting right now is going on with the Chiefs win. Will Travis Kelsey propose to Tay-Tay out there on the football field? That's getting a lot of bets. I'm going wow, that's pretty big.
Speaker 2That is. That is. That would be awesome.
Speaker 1But since we're doing betting, and we're Vegas guys, I have here more side bets that maybe some folks want to know about. Would you like to know the other bets? They're betting on Super Bowl, costello.
Speaker 2I'd love to hear about them. I'll even give you a drumroll, would you? Thank you very much.
Speaker 1I think it's like even money. Will Tom Brady's hair gel last the entire game? Right now most people are betting no, that's pregame game, halftime, postgame. I don't think it's going to last, okay. Okay, this is getting a little bit of action on this one. Okay, will Jake from State Farm lose his home on auto after secretly betting on the Eagles Because you know his buddy is Patrick Mahomes and Coach Andy Reid does all the commercials with Right Home auto, home auto. Jake, no more home auto after the game. Betting on the that one getting a lot of action. Everyone's betting against Jake on that one.
Speaker 2Even though he lives in Pacific Palisades. Yeah, they're betting on the Chiefs big time yeah. No, I was just thinking home, auto home sizzle.
Speaker 1Home auto, home auto. That's Jake. Okay, let's check this bet. Well, the Eagles have only one attempt at the tush push. Yes, that's after running back. Jalen Hurts gets a hard-on pushing the tush. After that happens, they may not run that play again. The coach may go. They're not pushing, he's pushing with his dick up there.
Speaker 2You know, that's a good question, because I thought sports guys like that wore a cup, but apparently they don't. Now it's like hey, look at me, I'm not wearing any underwear or anything.
Speaker 1Some do. You can tell who some do, some don't. But being that close and you do it, the tush push is actually what it is. You're pushing against the guy's tush in front of you, the guy behind you, so there's a lot of male humpy-pty dance. Yes, they're thinking Jalen Hurts is going to get a hard-on again after doing the first push-push and they only run it that one time during the game.
Speaker 2Can you imagine realizing you've got a hard-on and you've got like how many million people staring at you going. Do I just put my hand down, Get me something to?
Speaker 1It's kind of like watching Benson Boom, one of the guys up for new artists in the Grammys. He came out and he tore his clothes off, his tuxedo off. He's wearing like a blue jumpsuit. Yes, just on stage, the top of the piano, there's a backflip off the piano, pretty impressive. Apparently that kind of knocked him out of sync so he had to readjust himself, standing up there in front of the stage, in front of the camera. So everybody's going Well that he could have worked up, but there are no bets on that, so that didn't work out.
Speaker 1But there's not a lot of action going on in the tush-pushy bet thing.
Speaker 2Left side or right side, sir?
Speaker 1Yeah, but big bets are over and unders. Okay, so this is an over and under. So the number is 80. It would be over or under the number of times Jimmy Johnson will lick his lips during the broadcast. You ever watch Jimmy. I like Jimmy. Number of times Jimmy Johnson will lick his lips during the broadcast.
Speaker 2You ever watch Jimmy? I like Jimmy.
Speaker 1He's a great guy, but everybody's doing it.
Speaker 2Oh, like that Every time after he speaks he's got that going.
Speaker 1That's like no, no hands, just do it. You guys watch the pregame. You watch Jimmy Johnson. You tell me either he's chewing something or he's got the driest lips I've ever seen any human being have. Well, that's a possibility. Have you ever noticed that before, or is it just me?
Speaker 2I've not noticed him doing it. I've noticed them doing something with their mouth and licking their lips and it's like it's just kind of irritating.
Speaker 1Jimmy Johnson, the guy with all the big mane of white hair. Great hair, great hair. Every time he talks he goes yeah, I'm picking the cheese, he'll do that, I'm just going, what the hell? So the number is 80. Count the number of times you see him do that during the whole broadcast. Over and under is 80. A lot of action going on that one. Everyone's betting heavy on the over. He'll do it more than 80 times. Check that out.
Speaker 2You might have to have a couple of replays on it, oh yeah, slow motion, slow motion. That's when it can really come into its own.
Speaker 1Another over and under. The number on this one over and under is five. The number of times Travis Kelsey will say baby when being interviewed. Look, he lives in Kansas.
Speaker 2City.
Speaker 1Not the biggest vocabulary. Yeah, we're going to get in there baby. Yeah, where's the cheese? Baby, I'm going cheese, baby, baby.
Speaker 2Baby, baby.
Speaker 1Baby baby. Is that your girlfriend out there telling you hey baby, hey, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby. Is that your girlfriend out there telling you hey baby, hey, baby, baby, that's my baby. He calls guys baby. That's right, everybody's baby Baby baby.
Speaker 1So the betting action is way over the five on the baby thing. Okay, right, this one is like this is an easy bet cost, so you should do this one because you'll win money on. This is an easy bet, so you should do this one because you'll win money on this. Another over and under. The number is zero. The number of times Taylor Swift will be shown on TV without a drink in her hand? None, every time they show her.
Speaker 2Tay Tay likes to drink Apparently she admits that she's got a bit of a problem.
Speaker 1I would say, man every football game she's got wine, she's got a bit of a problem. I would say, man, every football game she's got wine, she's got dark drink, bourbon. I mean, the woman likes to drink Gee.
Speaker 2Bourbon and beer, bourbon and wine. What a dreadful idea.
Speaker 1That's talking like massive headache.
Speaker 2Yeah, it is. She hugs Travis at the end of the game.
Radio's Evolution and BBC Discussion
Speaker 1Big, tall and stinky. He goes hi, baby, he gets her into her. How'd it go? Yes, it will. The big bet on that is the over, because they're going to show her. Every time they show her she's going to have a drink. She always does. Okay, this is just like an odds bet. On the winner's podium after the game, terry Bradshaw will ask Coach Reed of the Chiefs, to roll on over here. He did it last year. He got crucified on social media because Coach Reed, as you know, is slightly round and overweight. Instead of saying come on over here, coach Estar, come on, come on. He said hey, coach Reed, roll on over here. I want to answer some questions.
Speaker 2I like that that actually happens.
Speaker 1Will he do it again? I don't know. I don't know. Now they're betting on some of the commercials already. Okay, you're familiar with Peyton Manning, right, every time he was in the huddle he used to be quarterback for the Broncos. His last five years of his career. He's staying at the line. Everyone has their own thing, right. Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott always goes here we go, and then they hacked him off. Peyton Manning.
Speaker 2Omaha. Omaha, so they're betting does Peyton Manning really eat Omaha steaks? I'm sure if they send him enough for free he will.
Speaker 1I thought it was the city, but no, I guess Omaha steaks, omaha steaks, omaha steaks. He's actually doing advertising. I never thought about that. Okay, vince, you will fall in this category. Okay, Over and under 30 million, big number, 30 million, the number of men that will cry watching the new Budweiser Clydesdale commercial. Look at that little horse.
Speaker 2Oh look, it's my little pony.
Speaker 1I've seen the commercial.
Speaker 2You will. Oh really, Is it like the one with the little puppy? Remember that a couple of years ago. It's just a little horsey oh, it's a horsey. Yeah, those things are huge. I've been around those, oh yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, this one, this is a little baby, he won't be small for long, okay, cool. We're getting a lot of action on this bet here too. This is an easy money bet. Costello will be deported by halftime. I'm betting on that one too. Get out of here. Send this boner back to England.
Speaker 2I'm not brown enough man. I'm not brown enough to be deported. What?
Speaker 1do you think you're doing All the brown people deporting first? Well, maybe I see it.
Speaker 2He's in a spot, especially in somewhere like Kansas at this time of year. Hey look brown guy, get him.
Speaker 1So you fall in a really rare category. You're illegal, but white, no, I'm legal. Now Trump goes, well, I don't care, he can stay Next. You Nope, brown Nope, just for that I'm leaving. You were in the turban, you were in the turban, now you're out.
Speaker 2Yeah, taking off his turban. Is that man a Jew? Just give me some. It's here. The clamp down is here. Fascists have taken over.
Speaker 1Bye, bye, bye, bye, deported, back to London. There are worse places to go.
Speaker 2I tell you what. Somebody offered me a radio job in England. I told my sister this this is the first time in 40 something years I've ever actually considered it. Somebody offered me a job.
Speaker 1So if you were offered, you'd be working for the BBC 2, bbc 3?
Speaker 2Oh there's lots of stations. Oh, I'd love to BBC 1. Radio 1 is too kiddy. Radio 2, I could do.
Speaker 1I'll ask you a question, okay, so we know what radio is like in America now. Not very many people listen to regular terrestrial radio. Is In America now. Not very many people listen to regular terrestrial radio. Is it the same effect in England? The same thing. That radio there is like it is all over the world, just like in the shitter. Nobody listens to it. It's a podcast, baby. It's a podcast. I said baby, I'm Travis Kelsey, did you?
Speaker 2get the podcast baby. I think that radio is still quite strong because of the BBC. The BBC is quite a strong entity. Although they've tried to screw it up enough times, they put so much onto the Internet, the terrestrial radio is still there, like Radio. 1 was what took over from all the took over from the pirates way back in the 60s. I remember that. Yep, they went and bombed the bloody boat. For Christ's sake, they sunk it Sunk the Amiibo. I mean, there was more than one boat.
Speaker 1So there's one strong entity left because of the news factor, I guess which is BBC One.
Speaker 2BBC One is kind of like chart-topping Actually it's more than that. Now They've got BBC One Extra BBC One well, well, not BBC One, it'd be Radio One, radio One Extra Radio One. This, that and the other. Radio One Hip Hop Radio.
Speaker 1One, but there's a lot of podcasts that come out in England, just as there is that may come out here in America. So a lot of people listen to BBC. They just listen to podcasts. Or you can stream your own music in England, just like you can here. So I would listen to regular terrestrial radio.
Speaker 2Well, they do still have that, like Radio 4.
Speaker 1But we still have regular radio in this country as well too. There's no one who listens to it anymore, so you know.
Speaker 2It's true Even in this funny little town that I awkwardly reside in. I mean plenty of radio stations. I don't know if anybody listens to them or not. Some of them are really quite bizarre.
Speaker 1Out of desperation. Sometimes I'm in a different car that has no satellite. I don't know where I can put my phone up. I have to turn on regular radio Just to go having to flash back back back. There's hardly any. The only thing I notice is there's really no announcers, it's just pre-recorded digital lines.
Speaker 2You're listening to music.
Speaker 1There's just no one talking. They cut it out. When I first moved to Denver years ago, they had live announcers, but now there's just a handful. The only ones that are there are in the most important show, Morning Drive. Thank you very much, but there's nobody to listen to, so I even bought it. It's. It's a bad bad.
Speaker 2Oh, I know it's awful, it's dreadful.
Speaker 1But if we were still in the market to buy one, we would cost an hour to buy one. Yeah, it would be live announcers and personality plus all around the clock. That's the way we would do our station. Yes, good.
Speaker 2Personality would be first Drinking coffee and eating M&Ms at all times. Yeah, personality would be first.
Speaker 1If we can't hire any personalities, we'd be on split shifts 12 hours for you, 12 hours for me.
Speaker 2We have enough trouble doing half an hour no not a bit, man, I can go all day.
Speaker 1So not a problem, don't get me started, I can go all day.
Speaker 2We are, of course course, the cancelled radio guys just thinking about that on the half hour.
Speaker 1Um, that sounded right being part of the reason. I was a cancelled radio guy because it wouldn't shut up. Don't say that I can't stop myself. He said what he can't help himself do you know?
Speaker 2do you know? I was thinking about going to the Waffle House today just for shits and grins and another heart attack. And do you know what they're doing? They're charging an egg surcharge. I can't say I really blame them.
Speaker 1What is an egg surcharge? Does that mean there's a fee for cracking the egg, or what is?
Speaker 2that it's an extra fee for having eggs.
Speaker 1Because the cost of eggs is so high. Is that why, I guess?
Speaker 2Yep, that's why they're going to an egg surcharge, don't think that's good.
Speaker 1That's the same as an egg tariff, I guess, right, what's the difference?
Speaker 2It's a tariff.
Speaker 1Yes, You're paying a tariff to eat the eggs it's a tariff like this.
Speaker 2It's the most beautiful word in the American dictionary.
Speaker 1I love tariff.
Speaker 2It's genius.
Speaker 1As he goes, he goes. The most beautiful word in the American dictionary I love his juice. As he goes, he goes. You know, americans may suffer for short term, but they won't mind. Who told you we don't mind? What are you stupid? Of course we mind. I don't even suffer one damn day.
Speaker 1Have you ever been to a Waffle House before? Oh God, yeah, I want to make sure because you know, being from the South, we're out partying all night by 3 o'clock in the morning. There's no better food at 3 am than going to the Waffle House, Totally shit-faced, and just going. I had the thing I can make it.
Speaker 2And then they give you whatever they feel like. Oh, here, take this. I have a friend who she worked in a Waffle House. She's a musician now, but when I met her she's just a young lady Got to start somewhere. Very, very attractive In Denver actually.
Speaker 1Which is off the Springs area.
Speaker 2And she was around about 17, I guess 18, right about then getting her first job, you know. And her first job was at a Waffle House, and she hated it, needless to say. And what she really hated was walking into the kitchen finding that the other waitress and the cook were having sex on top of the waffles. Hey, make you think again about going to a waffle house. It's like no Baby, baby, give me your waffle. Come on, she said. I just hung it up.
Speaker 1I'm going to leave a secret behind the whipped butter. That goes with the practice.
Speaker 2There you go, you got it. Okay, oh gosh, you ain't kidding.
Speaker 1It's an institution though, man, I'm from a Quapfa house. It's an institution, so I'm sure that if they weren't the first couple to do it, then they won't be the last. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2You know it, you know, it. Hey, you know getting late on the clock. All those ass-griddled pancakes.
Speaker 1Good, ass-griddled ass. Put some of that butter back there, baby. Oh, I've got a baby. The Kelsey baby again.
Speaker 2Oh well, oh, more babies.

Because he had his wife butt naked on the red carpet. Not that there's anything wrong with that, because she looks pretty good naked.
