MASON, Ohio (May 24, 2008)-
well, robbie 'kaptain' kenievel did it....
next to the opening day parade for the florence freedom that never got on the air,
this was something that actually did make it on the air, and you can hear the evidence...me and meat, literally within 25 feet on the pavement from the launch ramp
at kings island...test runs, pyrotechnics including flame throwers that singe eyebrows,
and robbie.  biggest crowd i've seen in a parking lot since christmas at the mall of america.

Hi fans!
Well, was that a great draft?
I got totally wasted, didn't pay for a thing, and remember nothing.  How about you?
I was really surprised when I listened back to some of the reports...

After my 3rd or 4th Tree Frog, I didn't taste much of anything anyway.
If you missed WEBN's draft coverage, of if you want to hear it for the first time like me...you can get a taste here:

Well, hello from cactus country.  You wouldn't believe how expensive
hotels are.  I am staying in my former employers remote van, and if he reads this I am screwed.
So, I had a reunion with my pal C. Sanders...
prime time w/daytime

By the way, before I left Cincy Ken Broo gave me some pointers;  in fact so many that there are two things...

Hey!  You!!  Al here.  I've had the guys at the IT department put a couple of old interviews from my incredible vault of "classic sound" on my blog.  (By the way, what does the 'I' and the 'T' mean anyway? I don't know, but whenever I push the F1 key they show up).  One bit of audio that I found particularly odd to hear again is a hidden microphone session with WEBN's BIG VOICE guy, John B. Wells.  He's the one who says with such masculine authority "Thee Lunatic Fringe of American FM...".  Makes those little hairs in my ears stand up. 
If you want to hear it, you can find it over on the other side of the page...see <- 
It really is something to hear that again...I forgot how much fun John and I had working together before I moved
to Fantasy Mountain.  Those were the days...I wish I remembered them. 
Write if you get work;  hang by your thumbs.

I discovered many years ago that you don't need a press pass to get into a Marvin Lewis press conference at PBS (that's "Paul Brown Stadium", not the tv channel). In fact, you don't actually have to even be at the press conference.  All you need is a microphone.  I borrowed one, and now you may click here -> , to hear my latest q&a with the coach of your (currently) 2-5 Bengals.
