Out to Lunch (radio show)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Out to Lunch was a midday radio show on 105.7 (the former WXYV-FM) in Towson, Maryland. The show was originally hosted by Steve "Thrill" Hill and Bill Rohland. Rohland was replaced by Miles Montgomery. The show with Steve and Miles then moved to Seattle and became "The Men's Room". Big O and Dukes took over in February of 2005 and lasted less than 7 months. Big O and Dukes were dismissed from the station in September of 2005, and were replaced by Ed Norris, former Baltimore police commissioner who used to join the show for an hour taking calls and talking with Big O and Dukes.
After the dismissal of the DJs, Ed Norris was offered the radio time slot full time. He now hosts his own show, the Ed Norris Show, and is accompanied by his sidekick Maynard. 'Out to Lunch' is now broadcast on the (new) WHFS-FM 105.7 "Free FM."

After leaving from WHFS Oscar and Chad moved to Phoenix and now work at KZON 101.5 Free Fm. The Big O and Dukes show is on from 8:00 to Midnight. 'The Big 0 and Dukes' show is an interactive program relying on listener phone calls, AOL instant messenger, and Myspace as their primary means of communication on various topics. Frequent segments include 'The Pulse', a daily wrap up of entertainment headlines, and 'Around the Horn', showcasing the latest in sports news. Other segements include Octopuss News, The Big 0 Sleepover, and Ninjas in the News. Another feature are the nightly prize giveaways, with various games played including 'O and D Catergories', 'Cinemagic' and 'Sports Drugs and Rock and Roll'. Big 0 ends the show with 'chow-chow, and Chad Dukes ends it with his phras 'We're Rich Bitch'.
The calling card line of the Big 0 and Dukes show is 'Ar!', which they encourage to be shouted in public to show listener support. In August and September of 2006, they ran the 'Show us your Ar!' contest, giving away $1000 to the most creative and eye catching display of the 'Ar!' sign.
