03/07/2005: "Dave and Huna on 1500"

Well, we got our big radio chance. The Dave and The Huna got two hours of possible train wreck talk radio as part of the KSTP AM 1500 Next Big Thing contest. I might post some audio clips once I get a copy of the show. We originally sent in a demo a couple years ago, and finally there is a format that allows them to put guys like us on the air without looking like desperate college radio station programmers.

We started out with some awkwardness, but from people who have given us feedback, we seem to have hit a decent stride for the second hour. It's hard to connect with an audience when even your friends decide to work outside on a super-warm day instead of listen to the show.

Unfortunately, it turns out I blew my blog invention joke. I said Thomas JEFFERSON invented the blog instead of Thomas EDISON. Doofus. DOOFus. DOOFUS.

The producer dude was a young guy who helped us out a lot, although he didn't have any prizes to give away to everybody who was bored enough to call our show (all dozen of them). Boo for that. Hah!

My parents (back in Wisconny) listened over high-speed Internet at a friend's house. Good thing there was no Packer intra-squad scrimmage or anything going on.
