- The always-timely Will comes in with the complete KLSX clippage for you from the big radio show in LA on Saturday night. We’ve got MP3 of the entire broadcast for you, commercial free, straight ahead. Kevin was joined on the evening program with Askewers Brian Lynch, Jason Mewes and on-air guy Matt Stout. Here’s what he had to say about his experience hosting the program as the front man this time:

Thanks, all, for listening in. We had a haphazard start, but I think by the second hour, we were in a good place with the whole affair.
Last night, I discovered that I don’t like being the front-man of a radio show. I liked my three days on Alice because it was Sarah’s show, and she got to steer it, while I simply followed her lead and got to chime in with the funny. Last night, I found myself in the Sarah role and Brian was me. Good for Bri, not so good for the Sarah-proxy. Riding shotgun, I’ve discovered, is way easier – because all you have to do is tag-up on the leader. Go back and listen to the Alice stuff; that’s all I did for three days. And that’s a lot more fun for me.
Mind you, this is not me taking anything away from Brian or Mewes, who were great and did what they were supposed to do. But I’ve learned that I’d rather be a guest or second banana. It’s really not that different than the Q&A’s: in that situation, the audience is in charge, and I’m just tagging up on what they say, in the form of story-telling.
If I were to do this in the future, I’d wanna be paired up with someone like Sarah – who’d be in charge of running the show. In radio, I think I’d rather just be a sidekick.
Not saying no to radio; just saying what I’d rather do in radio.
In any event, we won’t be doing it again ’til at least after “Catch & Release.”
And here’s a fan/listener’s take on the show:
We realize that only a select few of you were in earshot of the program on-air, so we’ve got it all for your listening enjoyment right here. If you’re one of our many workday surfers, pop in the ‘ol headphones and enjoy while you waste your Monday away…
