Here is the fifth call from my biggest fan:

Stalker Mother Call 

Here is the fourth call that came into the station:

Stalker Kids Call

As promised, I’m running older “stalker” calls at 5:10 every day this and next week, and I’ll post ‘em here. This was call number three, from a BBQ of some kind

 BBQ Stalker Call

(keep in mind, this call came in nowhere near Canada Day)

For the next two weeks, I’m gonna go back and play all the calls I have from my “stalker.” I’m not sure what else to call her. Stalker sounds a little mean. Maybe “superfan?” She calls the show once or twice a week, and we still don’t have a name yet. The first call is up already, a few posts down. Here is the call:

Stalker Call #2

How did it start? Well, it was one regular weekday afternoon in early May. An unusual woman called the show. She seemed to be a big fan, but with some….issues. Since that call, she’s called in once or twice a week to update me on her situation, and profess her - like? - of the show. Over the weeks we’ve discovered more and more about her. We still don’t have a name. Here is the very first call:

First Stalker Call

Did an interview with Jay Louis, creator of the website Hot Chicks With Douchebags, and soon to be author of a book by the same name. The interview stirred up some controversy. Lots of Calgary people assume Douchebaggery is just popped collars, but it’s more than that. Douchebags come in all shapes and sizes. Making tough/angry-guy faces and flashing the devil horns when getting a pic taken, 45 degree hat tilt, big glasses, chains, spiky hair, the Gotti-kid look, wigga look, bad tats, mandana, unfortunate facial hair…these are all signs of potential douchebaggery. Here’s the interview in three parts:

HCWDB #2

HCWDB #3 

Perry Farrell was the man behind Jane’s Addiction, Porno for Pyros, and now Satellite Party. He’s also the founder and creative mind behind Lollapalooza. I had a telephone conversation with him where we discussed all these things:

Yesterday afternoon, before their sold out show with Silversun Pickups and Snow Patrol, Damien from OK GO gave me a call. Here’s how that chat went:

OK GO Interview

I spoke to Bjorn, the singer (and whistler) from Peter Bjorn and John not too long ago. They do the song Young Folks, which people often call “the whistling song.” He was in a studio in Stockholm Sweden. Here’s the audio:
