And Now, Five Complaints About WMGK 102.9, The Radio Station Embedded Into Our Gross WT DNA
· Alright, listen: John Debella was not funny in fucking 1984, and you better believe this hoser is not funny now. Please stop “teasing” his morning show with “funny” bits from the show in between commercial breaks. “Voices In The Family” is funnier than this guy. Why can’t Debella grow old gracefully, like my man Pierre? Or even just rock the weird-for-life vibe like wrestling enthusiast Michael Tearson? Every day that John Debella is still on the radio, the phrase “Nikki Hoi” dies within us just a little.
· MORE LITTLE STEVEN.
· Debbie Calton, it has become apparent to us that you’ve never actually listened to the words of the songs you’ve been spinning for the past twenty years. Example: “We’re gonna kick this set off with ‘Boys Of Summer,’ — a great song to get you in the mood for summer!” Debbie, this song is about bipolar baby boomers in pre-Zoloft times, reading spiritual significance into bumper stickers. We give up.
· GIVE RAY KOOB A RAISE.
· The web player on your site won’t play with Macs, and that stupid download store you’re still rocking says one thing to us: You’re too cheap to hire a webmaster. Knock it off. We love you, WMGK, we love you like a workforce block of Billy Squier, but seriously: Love is a two-way street. You gotta give if you wanna get.

I agree with this 100%. Especially the part about Debella, but especially the part about Little Steven. Oh, and unless you’re talking Pat Benatar or Jackson Browne, I’ve noticed there isn’t much in-between-set enlightenment to be gained from Debbie Calton. Meh. The others more than make up for it.

Ray Koob is king.

DUDE. Did you just admit in public that you actually listen to 102.9fm ?!?
Man, that Philly mag spread really changed you.

Maybe things would be better if they raised Ed Sciaky from the dead.
