1996:
- Meeting #15. Ughhhh. What a
waste of time. Dave was there with me, and it really
sucked. Nothing was really said. A waste of gas and
time. I'm really sick and I wish I would've stayed
home. The studio might not be done tonight. So that
kind of sucks. Bill told me to wrap things up around
5:30 so everything's cleaned up before BC gets there.
Obviously Bob said something. You know if Dave and
Ethan (Bob's producer) weren't standing there with
their thumbs up their asses it would have been fine.
BC could have sat down while I was tidying up. No,
Ethan and Dave stand there looking at BC, and I look
like the guy who hasn't cleaned up. Oh well. Hope
tonight goes well.

SHOW 122
- Sick as a dog. Stuffed up to
the max, but a pretty good show. Some kids' body found
dead in a playground, big topic. My mistake ridden
article in the school newspaper another. I mean
I'm thankful for them doing a story about me at school
- but there were 7 absolute
lies/mistakes/typos...fuck? Affirmative action and
Glenn was another. Also had my CD, so I didn't need
the carts!! Woo-hoo. Great night except for my
illness. BD went well. Dick won again. No pranks
except at 5:30?! What's up with that? Got two fuck
you's on the air. Dave thought this guy was a girl. It
was extremely obvious. Oh well. He's doin' really
good. Finally played songs for the last 15 minutes
'cause it wasn't worth it trying to deal with the
assholes. Didn't have to say a word to Bob which was
nice. Dave seemed like a hurt puppy. He's infatuated
with him.

SHOW 123
- You'll never believe this shit.
So Greg is still working on the new studio. Finish
date: 3:00 am. Cool. I will be the first person.
Around 2:30 I see Greg in the new studio screaming at
Dave. I mean screaming. He was really pissed. Pointing
his finger at him. It was nuts. I was trying to talk
to some guy on the phone, but I kept losing my
concentration. Finally they finish, and I see Dave
half in tears. At the top of the hour I run in and ask
Greg what happened. Well the night before Dave went
into the new studio and powered up the board to play a
CD while producing me in there. WOAH. 3 things wrong.
Not supposed to be in there, supposed to be listening
to the show not music, and you
never...never....never...never touch any of Greg's
shit. So I ask him where he went and he didn't know.
Then he says it's ready, bring your stuff in. This is
of course at 2 after. 3 minutes until I'm back on. I
got everything in and I was able to just barely get
the weather on and throw on a song. So then I have to
look for Dave because I need him to produce. He's
crying in the lobby. For christ's sake. "Dave, C'mon
lets go I had to put a song on it's trivia hour." He
motions for me to go away. "Listen, whatever he said,
fuck him, we have to go." "No, I can't" For christ's
sake. "Listen I need your help or just leave...I can't
wait." "Fine, you're right I shouldn't be here, this
whole fuckin' thing is a mistake..." And he fuckin'
leaves! I had no time to deal with him as the song was
about to run out and I ran back to the studio. So now
I have to go on the air and run trivia myself. Which
means say the word, say 4 definitions out of order,
ABCD. Then take 5 calls, remember what the right one
is and write down what they answer. Give 2 points for
a right question, and takeaway a point for a wrong
one. Oh and still be Mr. Talk man. I am livid at this
point. And Greg is standing over me for the first 20
minutes making sure everything is going right in the
new studio. God am I pissed at this point.
-
- Finally everything settles down
and Mind
Trap goes great. Of all
the nights for him to do this, when I'm premiering a
new game. I think I'll do this on Saturday and
keep BD on Fridays. We'll see. Then around 4:15 Dave
calls and tells me everything's alright! He talked to
Greg and everything's juuuuust fine. This kids got to
be fucking joking. "Oh I'm glad you and Greg made up
buttfuck, what about...me...the guy you work for, the
guy who got you this job in the first place."
I didn't actually say that but ooooooh god was I
pissed. Then Greg calls up to remind me about
something and says he told Dave to come back in and
help me and Dave said "Nah, he'll be alright"
Holy fuck. Finally the show ends. And then the
board isn't wired correctly for perspective at 6! Dah.
Me and Joe went nuts. It was really quite funny.
Throwin' spots on. Then I triggered the "It's 6
O'clock" cart. It was nuts. Then finally we brought it
in from the other room. So I went home mad and slept
on it. Still unsure if I should tell Bill or
not.

Monday, March 31st - April 1st, 1996:
- Talked to Cannon about doing an
April Fools joke on the listeners like I got on and
said he was fired or somethin' silly. We couldn't
really agree on anything, and I don't know if the
audience would laugh. Oh well could have been fun.
Cannon was already showed how to use the board. No
real problems. The computers screwed up, but that was
about it. Told KP about Dave and she said I should
tell Bill, I agree. There's other stuff too, but
man I need a producer. This oughtta be a fun
week.
