Favoriting December 11, 2013: #2 - You Think It's About You

Today on the show, you think it's about you. My friend Dustin Boyer (co-founder of the Tacocopter) recognizes a voice on the Savage Lovecast, and realizes the call was meant for him to hear. WFMU DJ Keili tells the story of dating an older musician and thinking one of his songs was about their drama. Plus, dating advice expert Holly Wood gives us her take on the challenges of singlehood, and my roommate Rose shares her first impressions of the review app Lulu.

Oh, and I call this guy I met in the bar, and ask him to give me a review for the show. He says, "I'd give you a solid B."

In life it’s best to assume nobody really cares but nobody means malice. Just don’t get in their way, and all is good. Feh!

Any Savage Love fans lurking? I booked an interview with the show's producer next week... what should i ask?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:11pm
Mike Noble:

booked with the producer or with Savage himself?
  7:12pm
JakeGould:

Not a fan of Dan Savage, but he’s cool. Ask the producer… Hmmm…
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:14pm
Mike Noble:

well you most definitely have to talk about this segment
  7:14pm
P-90:

@Ange: ask about the now-popular sexual slang term Mr. Savage coined from ex-senator Rick Santorum's name.
Avatar 7:15pm
Ange:

It's with the producer... I want to find out what it's like to hear ALL THE CALLS. If I know anything from WFMU and public radio, not all the calls make the cut!
  7:16pm
P-90:

OK, the call-screening question is a good one to start with.
  7:17pm
Danne D:

hi andrea congrats on the full time slot :) i like the Joe Frankesque musical segways btw

Ange, now that you say that now we all want to hear what WFMU calls don’t make the cut! *bing*

Pete from Boston (and NJ):

Obviously it's made up. No one would listen to a musician named "Rivers."
  7:21pm
JakeGould:

I am not watching a 1+ hour debate on a topic I agree with that has no stakes on the line.

P-90:

Sea Creatures sounds like a real band name, though.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:22pm
Mike Noble:

I saw "Sea Creatures" last year in DC. I thought they all looked like they had just graduated college.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:22pm
Mike Noble:

@JakeGould: I find it useful to know the enemy sometimes. I like hearing the arguments they try to make, especially when they're challenged.
Avatar 7:22pm
Ange:

Pete from Boston - you are totally right. Though the guy acts like a dude named "Rivers" in this story.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:23pm
Mike Noble:

That's not a joke either, I figured out what band they're talking about. I saw them open for a band I booked on Seven Second Delay. They were alright. I bought their cassette.
  7:24pm
P-90:

She probably made up Sea Creatures but didn't check to see if there was a real band with that dumb name.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:25pm
Mike Noble:

Yeah, this song's on the cassette!
  7:25pm
P-90:

Kelli dated Flea? Far out, man
  7:27pm
Pete from Boston (and NJ):

I like this show.
  7:28pm
P-90:

THIS song is on the cassette? Sure? I thought she changed his name AND the band's to be discreet. Why bother to change his name if anyone can look him up by checking out the band on the web...?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:28pm
Mike Noble:

@Pete, if you log in with your wfmu account you can literally "like" this show. And this episode. And this host.

P-90, the vast majority of bands have dumb members & dumb names. But if they sound good, suddenly it’s all acceptable. makes you think!

Ange:

Yip Yip!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:31pm
Mike Noble:

@JakeGould - the actual band name is so much dumber than "Sea Creatures."
  7:31pm

Ange, did this guy say he would “ping” you later?

@Jake - I don't actually remember anything other than saying "I want to interview you for my radio show!" and putting him in my phone. The thing you guys can't tell from this call is that he's REALLY HANDSOME.

you met a wurster character?

I praise your willingness to suffer this ignominy for the sake of good radio. Ken and Andy have been an excellent influence on you.
  7:35pm

Could anyone really be this much of a tool? Do you think he was doing a character because he was going to be on the radio?

This dude she's interviewing sounds like Wurster doing a comedy call on the Best Show, is anyone really that douchey?
  7:37pm
PJ:

This is hilarious. Did he hide all of his insightful opinions when you met him?
  7:37pm
JakeGould:

Ange, you have to be serious. This is New York. You are a woman. This guy might be a REALLY HANDSOME, but he sounds like a douche.

  7:39pm
P-90:

The creepier he gets, the more patient with him she becomes
  7:39pm
thatsyourtrouble:

No, do not call yourself Stumpy even in jest! I hope you have the good sense to ignore everything this guy said. The fact that he has a political chip on his shoulder seems to inform his entire attitude/personality.

This is EXACTLY like a Wurster bit! He must be being willfully outrageously creepy, he can't be sincere.

Ok, you had me going up until the Jack the Ripper thing. But I'd love to hear more of this radio fiction stuff - the writing is great.

@P-90, I was thinking the same thing.

In all "fairness," I do have the impression this guy is trying to "game," with his use of insults and other weird things that he says and his general pathetic behavior.

Yappy, demanding, stumpy. Yappy, demanding, stumpy. Yappy, demanding, stumpy. Okay, this sounds fake.

"I'm writing a book about Jack the Ripper. Wanna know what it's called?" sounds just like Wurster.

Example of how little Andrea knows about sports. She seriously asked me "What's the name of the Philadelphia baseball team?" while sitting underneath my Phillies 2008 World Series Champion banner.
