Saturday 11:00 PM - 1:00 AM
Ah yes, Fall 2002. Our second season almost wasn't meant to be. But we ended up picking up an empty Saturday night slot, the prestigious "Bisti slot" even. We loved the show that used to be in the slot, so we tried to live up to the hype.
December 7 - The Pizza Hut Hip Hop Show Live from Antarctica
Pizza Hut sponsored one of our shows once again, this time to promote their new Pizzagna dish. Also, obviously, we were broadcasting from the South Pole with our eskimo friends.
Guests: Pizzagna was in the house! We enjoyed dish after dish of what the FDA is calling "a caloric appocolypse."
Poll/Survey: What do you want on your Pizzagna.
Other: The eskimos struck their bells to request Mos Def.

November 16 - Fast Show Slow Show
The first half of the show was sped up, and the second half slowed down, talking and all.
Other: Another annoying concept show! Some things sounded better than others slowed down or sped up. The sped up stuff got frantic and it was hard to talk. The slower stuff was harder to listen but funner to talk. The show came to crashing finale as "Pigeon" slowed down to static.

Poll/Survey: What's your favorite pie? Would you rather be stuck with a monkey or a severly retarded hyperactive 2 year old. Who would win in a fight: Ben and Jerry vs. Tom and Jerry?

October 5 - The Submarine Show
We broadcasted from a Soviet-era Russian sub in the Indian Ocean, and once again played music from our middle school days
Poll/Survey: Since we were in the ocean, we asked what different peoples' favorite sea animals were. A girl named Summer called and said she liked penguins the best. I also like penguins the best, and Caitlin likes manatees of course.
Other: Meg F. called with her friends to make sub sounds over the phone, but regretfully they were not aired. And about two hours into the show, we were discovered by the Royal Navy of Bad King Wensislaus who shot torpedoes at us and sank our sub.

Guests: Caitlin's mom and Spaniel were around for a good part of the show.
Other: I told Caitlin the story about why her car stunk so bad... I accidentally peed in it. A magic turtle called up halfway through to request Warren G. and some other guys just randomly came up to the window at the end of the show and requested Sublime for the last song.
