so last night, with Dip out of town and nerding-out at a chem convention on the east coast, i recruited a guest DJ. lil' dipper, aka nic, aka my little brother, made his illustrious debut on KSDT -- or KSTD, as he was wont to mistakenly call it (freudian slip much?). my theme was "what it means to be a cory" (our last name) and his was "truth."
here is the playlist:

i doubt KSDT has seen so many songs from musicals, like ever. way to go, Lil' Dipper.
our mom also decided to call us like six different times. she called during "i just called to say i love you" -- appropriate because when nic and i were little and staying over at friends' houses or when our parents were away on vacation, she would call us or we would call her and sing this song to each other. okay, we still do it. anyway, mom called and started singing along -- especially funny because there is a delay on the broadcast. i put my cell phone up to the mic, but i'm not sure her voice carried. hmmm...i should probably check that out. oh, the possibilities!
our listenership peaked at 8. all family and friends, we're quite sure. though my buddy ryan did download the show later and learn about what it means to be a cory while playing some video game. excellent.
Dip-the-Elder returns next week and it's sure to be a great show as usual. though i will certainly miss Lil' Dipper's banter and
strongly encouraging him (ie, making thinly-veiled threats) to nix some of his song selections (*cough*johnmayer*cough*).
in case you missed this, you can check it out

Chip
hearts,
