Radio Show Number One
Hey gang! We three fools have been given a radio show on Brunel University's awesome student radio station B1000. How lucky and cool and crazy are we! Very! We are going to use this neglected blog to post things related to the show, which is on Mondays at 7.00pm until 9.00pm. You'll get the links to the websites we have talked about, playlists, and lovely little clips of some of the rubbish we have spouted. Also whoever writes the post will probably muse briefly on the nature of the show and also life. Fantastic! Here is all the shit from our first ever show:
INTERNET WATCH
- One-man Movie Re-enactments
Here is the YouTube profile of Mr. Brandon Hardesty, who recreates scenes from movie all by himself by doing impressions and wearing different clothes and then editing it all together. It is very good and very funny. He is also a piano whizz and can make funny faces! Hoorah! - Crazy Internet Kid of the Week
Here's a MySpace lunatic. He had a list of 100 things about himself which got read out on the show, but I don't know if that is on his MySpace. Anyway he is very funny although not for the right reasons.
PLAYLIST
Before you read the playlist I will explain the concept of the 'unvetable' tracks. Each one of us may select one song each week that cannot be vetoed by the other presenters. I have labelled them on the playlist with our names so you can pick them out. Here you go:

- Don't Stop Believin' - Journey
CLIPS
We've only got the first hour of the show recorded, so some of the items we did are lost to the mists of time forever. Which is a shame, because we hit our stride after a bit and some of the best things happened in the second hour. Like Internet Watch, Game Set Matt, Oh My Days and Thing You Remember From The Nineties. But you'll have to live without those and make do with these snippets of awkward muttering:
THE WOOF BOX
Well well well! This was our first ever show and we didn't really know what we were doing. We also had some jingles and sound effects and other gubbins stored on a memory stick, but it didn't fit in the frankly poorly designed USB port in the studio. We learned our lesson though so next time you can expect some annoying sound effects and horrid jingles. Which, aside from professionalism, is what the show is really missing. Really though I think it went pretty well all things considered and it was definitely a lot of fun. And it'll only get better! Promise.
