Radio From Hell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
.
Radio From Hell is a radio program broadcast weekday mornings on Salt Lake City, Utah's KXRK 96.3FM.
Originally named for being "the radio show for people who feel like hell in the morning." The show features hosts Kerry Jackson, Bill Allred, and Gina Barberi, all Utah natives. The show is available on-line in both a live streaming format and as a downloadable MP3. [1]
Radio From Hell is the longest running radio program in the Salt Lake City-area market, and is consistently one of the top-rated programs in the area. The hosts take great pride in making Radio From Hell an alternative to what they see as cliched, formulaic syndicated morning shows; the show and its host station have earned praise from outside the Utah region: Rolling Stone cited KXRK as one of the top-five rock and roll radio stations in the U.S., and singled out Radio From Hell as one of the longest-running local radio programs in the U.S.[1]
[edit] History
The show originated on Ogden's KJQ as "The Fun Pigs", hosted by Jackson and Allred in 1986.[2] By the early 1990s, the team called their show as "Radio From Hell", and the duo were among five out of twenty-five employees who did not quit KJQ in December 1991.[3]
The former KJQ staff founded a new station, KXRK, which premiered in February 1992.[4] The new station featured Bill Allred and Dom Casual in the mornings; they were among many ex-KJQ personalities on the initial lineup on KXRK.[5] Their show was called "Project X with Dom and Bill."[6] Meanwhile, Kerry Jackson continued to work mornings on KJQ, first with Mo Mellady, who lasted less than a month.[7] Kerry then shared a morning show with Clyde Lewis, becoming program director of KJQ in May.[8] Jackson worked for a time on KZHT. On October 18, 1993, Jackson joined KXRK, replacing Dom Casual in the mornings.[9] Reunited, Jackson and Allred resumed calling their show "Radio From Hell."[10]
On May 20, 1996, Gina Barberi joined the program. Barberi had previous host experience. Since February 1996 she had co-hosted the "Woody and Barberi" morning show on the teen-oriented station KUTQ with Scott Woodmansee.[11] Barberi had worked as a mid-day DJ at KUTQ several months prior to being promoted to morning host.[12] Additionally, Gina had worked at KJQ in the late 1980s when she was 19 and still a student at the University of Utah.[13]
[edit] Basic Format
Radio From Hell (RFH) begins each morning at 5:00 A.M. Mountain Time. Between 5:00 A.M. and 6:00 A.M, the show consists of "best of" clips from previous shows, interwoven with alternative rock songs, as well as sound clips from various movies and television series. The live show runs from 6:00 A.M. and ends near 10:00 A.M.
The hosts regularly relate humorous anecdotes about their families, friends, jobs, pets, eating habits, shopping trips, vacations and other experiences. The show incorporates several regular features and guests noted below
Radio From Hell's hosts, especially Jackson and Allred, are known for being socially and politically liberal. They frequently discuss the LDS Church, Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson, Utah state liquor laws and many other idiosyncrasies of Utah life and culture.
Listeners are called "friends of the program;" occasionally, a "best friend of the program" is invited to co-host the show.
[edit] Mission statement
The show's mission statement is occasionally played before the show begins. Allred reads the accouncement, with music in the background.
"It is our mission to embrace the idea that our show shall always strive to belittle the stupid and to play an occasional song. We shall also strive to take all of your requests, but to never, under any circumstances, play those requests. It is our mission to offend as many people as we can in the shortest time possible. We shall always remember that no matter how pointless and stupid the things we say are, we shall present them in such a way that they will be lessons that will last a lifetime. We shall strive always to do nothing and to be mean. We shall strive mightily to always be the number one morning show in Salt Lake or, if not that, the number two morning show or, at least somewhere in the top 15 or 20 morning shows. At least once a year we shall go to someone's home and we shall eat really good food and we'll make you wish that you could be there to share it with us. And finally, it is our mission to always remind the listeners that we never lie, and we're always right. So let it be written. So let it be done."
[edit] Hosts
[edit] Kerry Jackson
Jackson grew up in Salem, Utah. He currently lives in Salt Lake City, Utah with his Korean-American wife, Sue. Jackson often references and discusses his love for geek culture including video games, comic books (Marvel Comics, not DC Comics), and science-fiction movies and television series such as Star Trek and Star Wars. One of his favorite video games is the Lego Star Wars series. His large toy collection consists of Batman, Star Trek, Star Wars, and Marvel Comics action figures[2]. Kerry regularly plays audio clips from The Cartoon Network's Adult Swim lineup including Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Sealab 2021, and Squidbillies.
Jackson often recounts his adventurous weekend experiences (usually involving his fondness for mixed drinks), offers humorous pickup lines, and occasionally performs impressions of celebrities including Larry Flynt, Roy Horn, Lou Ferrigno, and Owen Wilson. Kerry has claimed that he has an innate talent for recreating the voices of handicapped celebrities. Kerry also created the character, "Frank Chryst," a celebrity-reporter who is perpetually grieving over the "horrible, terrible tragedy" of a recently publicized celebrity death.
Jackson also has been candid and jocular about his suffering from possibly a combination of personality disorders, such as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Depression and Social Anxiety. He says he lies in bed and hears songs or phrases repeat themselves over and over. Mostly these intrusive and repetitive thoughts are Warner Bros themed. Also, in early 2007, Bill was allowed to read an email from a listener that had seen Jackson shopping, who was noticeably irate and wrathful, due to being surrounded by too many people.
Jackson had a bit part in the film The Singles Ward, but has disavowed his role in the film because he felt it was simply not funny. Despite his best efforts, however, he has been offered a part in a proposed sequel. [3]
Jackson is also responsible for recording, selecting and playing the majority of the sound clips on the show; Allred has described Jackson as the Don Letts of Radio From Hell (referencing Lett's role in rock group Big Audio Dynamite).
Kerry attempted to participate in The World Series of Pop Culture. After traveling to California, his team, "Shatner's Midnight Runners" passed the written exam and were allowed to audition for the producers. The were ultimately cut from the contest and sent home with a calendar for their trouble.
[edit] Bill Allred
Allred was actually born Ralph William Allred. A native of Ogden, Utah, he attended Ben Lomond High School, then graduated from the theater program at Weber State University, and did some graduate work at Penn State University. According to Allred, while at Penn State he was attacked by squirrels and, therefore, no longer cares for the small animals. Bill fell into radio work by accident, starting with an overnight shift. Allred tends to be the most intellectual of the three hosts, reading such magazines as The Economist, and frequently referring to "tuna salad" as "salad niçoise". He also enjoys biking, camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities.
He currently lives in downtown Salt Lake City with his wife, "Mrs. Bill", his son "Little Bill", his daughter "Little Mrs. Bill", and his two cats, G. Gordon Liddy and Rush Limbaugh. Bill is a fan of movies, having gone so far as to say that he would like to be able to see every movie that is released, even the really bad movies. Some of Bill's stories relate to raising his live-in family as well as a family from a previous marriage who still live in Ogden. He is often trying to discover educational outings for his intellectually curious son "Little Bill". One such trip led to a children's library and a tour of a giant colon model. [4]
Bill regularly performs different voices and impressions during his reading of the news. The most popular include his German, Swedish, and Namibian accents. Also popular is his Strom Thurmond-like impression of Utah Legislator Chris Buttars and his bloviating reproduction of U.S. Congressman Chris Cannon. In the past Bill frequently appeared as William Shatner in order to wish friends of the program a "Happy Birthday," though appearance of this feature has become rare in recent years.
Bill has experienced a couple of brushes with fame and fortune. Bill can be seen as one of the extras in the Robert Altman movie, Nashville. According to Bill, he is in a crowd scene and is distinguishable by his Budweiser shirt and sunglasses.
Bill also saw Geri Jewell perform her stand-up comedy routine in Ogden, Utah and was later able to have drinks with her.
[edit] Gina Barberi
Gina grew up in Roy, Utah, the daughter of famed Utah radio show host Tom Barberi and her frequent foil of a mother, "The Sainted Mary Claire." Barberi has two children, "Festus" and "Jonesie". She was re-married in February 2005 to "Joe Jones." Gina frequently expresses her fondness for celebrity news, gossip and rumor. To that end, she receives a Cosmo subscription for each Christmas from Allred. A good deal of Gina's personal life has been made public on the air, such as her attempt to wear thong underwear, her breast enlargement surgery, her 800 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets, her Hawaiian-based wedding, and her elementary school aged son's penchant for hard rockers AC/DC. She is a fanatically picky eater, refusing to eat such common staples as cheese, tomatoes, honey, or seafood due to her dislike of their texture. When ordering a hamburger from either the Crown Burgers or Training Table restaurants, she insists on only having meat and bread. No lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, or condiments. Her husband "Joe" has attempted, largely unsuccessfully, to broaden Gina's culinary horizons.[14]
Gina possesses several phobias, including wind chimes, shower curtains, sculptures depicting children, and the wind. (The first two have been explained by Gina's childhood exposure to horror movies.) In order to avoid being assaulted, Gina says she pretends to talk on the phone while walking through a parking lot, and if Joe is not home she will keep her cellular phone under her pillow, and turns on the TV (which cannot be visible from any window or someone might want to steal it) so it sounds as if people are talking if she is home alone.
Though Jackson and Allred will admit to occasionally exaggerating their own traits and behaviors for comedic effect, they insist that Barberi does not do so; her radio persona is not an act.
[edit] Richie T.
Richard T. Steadman is the Radio From Hell show "fresh-faced Mormon producer." He is not a host, but does appear sporadically on the show with anecdotes of his own. He began as an intern, eventually becoming a paid employee. Richie is a graduate of Southern Utah University, and was a DJ on the radio station there. He also participated in the SUU show choir.
[edit] Recurring Features
[edit] Big Boy News and Opinnuendo
Allred reads the newspaper because he claims that that 90% of the listeners won't. He reads news stories from The Salt Lake Tribune, Deseret Morning News, USA Today, and various internet sites. The word, "opinnuendo" is a portmanteau of "opinion" and "innuendo," coined in 2004 due to complaints about the hosts' editorializing.
[edit] Punk's Movie Reviews and Junk Food Update
On alternating Tuesdays a character named "Punk" calls into the show to review B-Movies, mostly of the horror genre. Titles have included the elevator based The Shaft, the medieval Barbarian, the animated Li'l Pimp, and the futuristic Dream Warrior.
Punk gives a summary of the cast list and plot, and then plays a very poor recording of a scene from the movie. Punk rates the movies on a scale of 1 to 4 Prozac pills as well as a handful of supplemental medication like Wellbutrin or Claritin. Punk then recommends junk food to consume while watching the movie, such as flapjacks and syrup, RC Cola, Star Wars breakfast cereal, Ring Pops, candy necklaces, or a Zagnut Bar.
[edit] Our Son Kyle
Alternating Tuesdays with Punk, the character of Kyle Brown calls in. Kyle's background and misadventures are almost entirely fictional.
According to the show, Kyle is a little albino boy trying to make it in the big-wide world. His call-ins were originally introduced by playing The Mary Tyler Moore Show theme song and an explanation that Kyle is the son of either Kerry or Bill. Both of them knew, and were apparently intimate, with Kyle's mother. No DNA test has ever been performed at the request of Kerry and Bill as the potential fathers would prefer to keep the hope that they are not his father. Kerry and Bill are required by the state to contact their "son" on a semi-monthly basis.
Kyle frequently starts new businesses in an attempt to better himself. Examples include Kyle's Home Botox Injections, Kyle's Carpet Munchers Carpet Cleaning, Kyle's Haunted Tomato Patch, and Meaty-O's Cereal (dog food). Kyle has also attempted to imitate the magician David Blaine by locking himself in a cardboard box on the corner of State and Main in Salt Lake City, across from the Hardee's fast food restaurant. The "corner of State and Main" is a frequent location for Kyle's antics, though in fact State Street and Main Street run parallel and never intersect. Kyle moves from home to home, sometimes living with Kerry, or Bill, but most frequently, with Gina. Gina is usually unaware that Kyle is lurking in her home until he informs her during his call.
[edit] Boners In The News
Arguably the most popular feature on the show, "Boners In The News" is referred to as the "feature that won't go away." The term boner is now used to mean "a mistake," though the feature originally was called the "morning boner," and featured more sexual innuendo.
The feature presents three current event articles that display mean-spirited, stupid, or funny behavior. Bill re-titles and reads the three articles. After all three candidates are read, listeners to the program can call or e-mail in their votes. The story which receives the most votes is crowned "Boner of the Day." A local resident and entrepreneur, Dave "The Flower Guy" Matson enters the studio on Friday, towards the end of the show, to choose one of the daily winners as "Boner of the Week."[2] In 2006 an attempt has been made to crown "Boner of the Month," "Boner of the Quarter," and "Boner of the Year" using online web polls. The hosts are not confident that these additional "Boners" will be presented in future years.
[edit] The List of Things That Must Go
Every other Wednesday, Radio From Hell presents "Things That Must Go". Each host then presents a list of pet peeves. The list has included Dr. Phil, The Buggles, "Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep", The Orlando Jones Show, Rachael Ray, fake British accents, and public bathroom stalls without a hook on the door.
Alterating with the hosts' irritations is the "Listeners' List of Things That Must Go", for which listeners are encouraged to send in e-mails detailing the things they feel "must go".
[edit] The X-Poll
The X-Poll is an untallied and unscientific poll of the show's listeners. The hosts ask a question and listeners are allowed to call in or e-mail their answers to the poll question. Past polls have included, "Have you ever been in a natural disaster?", "What is guaranteed to make you cry?", "Is there anyone you trust 100% of the time?", "What would you take if you had to evacuate your home in 20 minutes?", and "What's your biggest case of buyer's remorse?" One X-Poll, in an attempt to resolve two e-mail messages, one critical, and one supportive regarding the shows content, asked listeners "What the hell do you want?!"
[edit] Margaret Ruth
Friday mornings include a visit from the local psychic Margaret Ruth, who also teaches occasional classes on tarot card reading at the University of Utah.[2]
Ostensibly, callers to the Radio From Hell show can ask Margaret Ruth a love-related question, to which she will apply her psychic advice and tarot cards. In reality, however, the segment consists primarily of the three hosts and Ruth belittling the caller in a polite manner referred to as "The Painful Circle". Lesbian or gay friends of the program are usually elevated to the front of calling line as their calls are more intriguing to Kerry.
Margaret Ruth's segment is always introduced with a clip from The Scary Door, a fictional TV show enjoyed by the characters of the TV series Futurama. The segment has frequently uses sound clips from the Disneyland attraction The Haunted Mansion, which is one of Little Bill's favorite park attractions.
[edit] Jeff Vice's Movie Reviews
Jeff Vice is one of the movie reviewers from The Deseret Morning News. On Thursday mornings he visits the studio and presents his reviews of the current movies, more formal versions of which are then available in the paper and online the next day. Jeff will often give alternative ratings and reviews for geeks, i.e., giving Spiderman 2 3 1/2 stars in the paper and 4 stars for geeks.
[edit] Bill Frost
Bill Frost is the TV columnist for the Salt Lake City Weekly newspaper. Monday mornings he enters the studio and informs the hosts and listeners of all the TV shows that are starting, ending, or doing something special.
[edit] Neglected News
The neglected news consists primarily of celebrity-related news which Gina refers to as "THE NEWS". Bill, confessing frequently that he despises this feature, reads the news and intentionally mauls the names of celebrities into often unrecognizable forms. For example, Jennifer Aniston becomes "Jamima Amadon," Brad Pitt becomes "Brill Pim," and Oprah Winfrey becomes "Orpha Whimpy", or "Orca Whimpy."
[edit] Geek Show
Every few months, Kerry takes over a 30 minute to hourlong segment of Radio From Hell to host his own "Geek Show." Featuring regulars like Jeff Vice, Bill Frost, Punk, and other local Geek Friends of the Program, they speak about all things geek: comics, movies, TV, toys, role-playing games, video games, etc. Other more famous guests have included local comic book authors and artists such as Mike Allred.
[edit] Chainsaw Guy
Each October, usually close to Halloween, Bill Allred portrays the character of "Chainsaw Guy", the guy with the chainsaw and hockey mask at the end of a typical spook alley. Kerry introduces Chainsaw Guy and illuminates the audience as to Chainsaw Guy's credentials as a couple's counselor and sex therapist. Listeners are then invited to call in and ask Chainsaw Guy for advice. Chainsaw guy, who never removes his mask, and consistently carries his chainsaw with him, then proceeds to give advice to the listener. The advice can be somewhat hard to understand due to the mask and the gas-powered tree-trimming implement. When Chainsaw Guy began his career, all he could afford was an Eager Beaver. This saw was replaced by a larger and more powerful Husqvarna, which has since been upgraded to a Pullen. This is one of Gina's favorite segments of the year.
[edit] Discontinued Segments
In past years, a prominent portion of the Radio From Hell broadcast included radio skits. "Space Elders" was a series about two Mormon missionaries, Butch and Lehi, on a proselyting mission in outer space.[15] The duo would preach the gospel to aliens attempting to convert them to the LDS way of life. Often there would be cameos by Star Wars characters, or other science fiction persona. "The X96 Files" was a parody of The X-Files, with Agent Muldy, played by Kerry, and Agent Sculler, played by Gina. The partners would investigate the paranormal activities, often focused on Utah landmarks. These sketches were written by a now severed "friend of the program" whose given nomenclature on the show was changed after a falling out with the morning radio hosts.
Sir LeGrand Olivier, Utah's most accomplished thespian, and Conway Skinner, Utah's Cowboy poet laureate, were other characters performed by Bill Allred who would drop by the show in prerecorded spots. Olivier would perform a dramatic reading, usually of something non-dramatic in nature, such as the lyrics to "Donde Esta Santa Claus?" Conway Skinner would perform original cowboy poetry, often about something Utah-centric. One of his final poems was "Eatin' Pud," an ode to a pet turkey named Pud who was eaten at Thanksgiving. Presumably he was so shaken by this experience that he never returned with another poem. He would always sign off with "I'm Conway Skinner."
Past syndicated features included The Chuck Heston Mini Disaster Movie, which parodied Charlton Heston films, Mr. Manly, and Dingo Boy.
[edit] Mario Morales' Spanish Language Lesson
Salt Lake business owner Mario Morales frequently visited the show with a Spanish lesson. He gave two sentences in Spanish, allowing each DJ to repeat the sentence in turn. He then gives the English translation of the often humorous sentences. Occasionally prizes are given to listeners who can accurately translate a given sentence. He had a tendency for being late every time he's on. When asked by a listener about the Spanish Lesson being discontinued, Bill Allred said we'd have to ask Mario Morales why he stopped doing it and attributed it to Morales being so busy with his work.
[edit] Notable Friends Of The Program
Listeners of the Radio From Hell show are referred to as "Friends of the Program". Sometimes this is further categorized as "Gay Friends of the Program", "Inmate Friends of the Program", and so forth. There are a few Friends of the Program who have become more than just listeners.
[edit] Atropos
'Atropos' is a friend of the program, as opposed to an employee of the radio station. He wishes to keep his anonymity as he fears his career could be negatively affected by his participation. He lives in Utah County, a notoriously conservative area of the country. After listening to as much of the show as he is able, he authors the show notes and posts them to the LiveJournal page. According to the show, 'Atropos' works at a landfill and listens to the show as he scares away seagulls. The show notes can be found at http://radiofromhell.livejournal.com/
[edit] Nancy Grace
'Nancy Grace' is the moniker used on Radio From Hell by noted Salt Lake City defense attorney Edward K. Brass. He frequently calls into the show to provide humorous one-liner comments about the current topic. 'Nancy', with a healthy dose of satire, claims to be married to 'Ann Coulter.'
[edit] Controversy
Radio From Hell has occasionally stirred up controversy with their, generally speaking, pro-gay rights, pro-gun, pro-death penalty, pro-adult-living, anti-Iraq-war, and anti-authoritarian viewpoints.
One of the more publicized incidents involved a 2004 billboard advertising campaign. The original billboards featured the likeness of a typical, small-town Christian church in front of a rainbow. The caption read "Alternative Lifestyle? 'Til Death Do Us Part." During an election season in which Utah voters were ultimately faced with the question of passing an anti-gay marriage amendment, the billboards caused a great deal of discussion, argument, and even vandalism.[16] The billboards did advertise a URL, but that site only duplicated the billboard's image and announced that additional information would be "coming soon." There were no indications that X96 or Radio From Hell were responsible for the campaign. After a certain period of time, the billboards were replaced by somewhat similar looking billboards that replaced the graphic of the church with a graphic featuring Bill in a wedding dress, Kerry in a tuxedo, and Gina in Catholic Priest garb with an advertisement for the show and radio station. The "Alternative Lifestyle" referred to was the station's alternative music playlist.
[edit] Awards
Radio From Hell is the longest running radio morning show in the Salt Lake City, Utah area.[2]
Radio From Hell is the highest rated radio show by 18-34 year olds in the Salt Lake City market, according to Arbitron's Summer 2006 report.[2]
In its 2006 summer double issue, Rolling Stone named KXRK (Radio From Hell's host station) as one of the top five rock stations in the country.[1]
[edit] Humor from the Show
The following section includes humor, jokes and satire paraphrased from content on the show.
Kerry is said to often spend his weekend time in the company of numerous friends while enjoying "girlie" adult beverages, specifically on "Wino Friday."
Kerry is said to have recently purchased a cardboard son, naming him "Optimus Prime" after the Transformers character of the same name. Bill often warns Kerry of the dangers of water and its effects on the paper-product boy.
Up until recently, Kerry's official bio on the RFH web page was actually the fictional biography of Captain James T. Kirk.
Kerry is said to live by the aphorism "WWCKD?" (What Would Captain Kirk Do?)[5]
Bill dislikes the broadcasts of Sean Hannity, so much so that, as of September 29, 2005, he has vowed never to mention his name on the radio again. That vow has been broken in outrage on a number of occasions, but, thusly, Hannity is often referred to on air as "He Who Must Not Be Named," a reference to the villain Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter series of books and films.
Bill became known as "the defender of the patty melt," due to his love for the sandwich, particularly one from The Training Table, a small, locally owned chain. Because of this, Radio From Hell often plays a clip from Dead Like Me in which Mandy Patinkin berates a customer for not knowing the difference between a patty melt and a grilled cheese. He has also referred to himself as "Slain Polygamist Leader Bill Allred," referring to noted (and assassinated) Utah polygamist leader Rulon C. Allred.
