Ex Lion Tamer is one of my favourite songs, so I thought I would hate this, but…

What's the point of even sleeping when you could just stay glued to your TV set?

I especially like the section that starts about 51 minutes in.

I can tolerate this for a few hours. It is far better than the guy singing Jack & Diane with only the words "sucking on a chili dog" used.

Also, I would like six hours of "dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio", please.

Now that I actually listen to it, sadly, there is a noticeable lag where they edited this to loop it. That would drive me nut before the repetition.

I’m sorry, we only have on hour of transmission… because, well our chef, she lost control. But after the first hour you could listen to the silence, let it ring on…
