another "WTF?" posting from the KFOG FB page: they were asking for Kaboom! suggestions and someone actually said: "I'd like Jack Johnson -- he hardly ever gets played on the radio".  Needless to say, I was compelled to comment "you're kidding, right? KFOG plays him constantly!"

Friday will be another "Request-O-Rama-O-Rama" with movie trivia questions in honor of the Oscars. Can we also assume AL will be doing a movie-themed 10@10?

Today they did a "warm-up" question: what family has the most Oscar nominations in the history of the awards?  Answer may surprise you.  And the winning Foghead wanted to hear... "Spirit in the Sky". Because, y'know, ya *never* hear that one on the radio. Or in TV commercials. Or in movie trailers. Or...

Nope. The number of nominations in the answer was gobsmacking. And it doesn't involve actors at all!

Bigger family; we're talking 6 people with 80+ nominations among them.

Dunno if anyone else is up this early, but KFOG has started doing an extended news segment between 5:30 and 6 -- 10-15 mins including business news and a "music news" segment with Renee (which gets recycled as her "Rock'N'Roll Thingy" later in the morning). Can't figure out what prompted the change.

DING DING DING!  It's 81 nominations among Randy, 2 cousins and 3 uncles (not sure if that includes his 2 noms for this year).

I looked it up this morning, but didn't want to spoil others fun.

Request-O-rama-O-Rama in full swing: someone asked for and got "S&D&RnR". Cake of Liberty for breakfast!

ETA: the Ian Dury biopic, with Andy Serkis (aka Gollum from LOTR) has gotten excellent reviews in the UK.
