My “biggest fan” called again, and talked about how her retreat has changed the way she looks at things. Have a listen:

Stalker May 14th

I’ve been in Calgary about a year and a few months now, and just today I noticed that Shoppers Drug Mart (and other Calgary pharmacies) sell cigarettes. In Ontario they haven’t been able to sell them for years…the theory being that a place that’s main purpose is health care, and helping people get better shouldn’t be in the business of selling a product that mostly makes people sick or kills them. What’s your feeling on this? We talked about it and got the alberta rules from a listener:

Smokes at Shoppers

We’ve talked on-air about how Greg (X92.9 Evening/Weekend guy) doesn’t own or like jeans. Today, it came to my attention that Greg doesn’t wear shorts, like shorts, or even think men should wear shorts. Here’s the debate:

Greg Hates Shorts

Take the poll over there —–>

By now everyone knows that Greg Beharrell, evening/weekend host on X, is a strange fellow. I’m of the opinion that one must enjoy the little things in life, like a dog, or a nice sunset, or a new clock radio. Greg thinks all the little things are worthless. The only thing important to Greg is girls. I think Greg needs to stop and smell the roses. Hear the debate here:

Greg is a Weird Dude - Smell the Roses

It’s been more than a month since I last heard from “my biggest fan.” Apparently she was on some kind of bizarro cleanse and retreat. Listen to the call here:

Stalker May 02

Greg Beharrell is a weird dude. He hosts Thursday and Friday evenings, and weekend afternoons on X92.9. We’ve made a bit of an ongoing segment about some of his “quirks.” Today Greg told us that the only reason a guy should go to a movie is with a girl, otherwise it’s a waste of time. Listen:

I used to be embarassed by the things my parents did and said in public. My mom called me Joshy until I was in my 20s. Lately though, I’ve learned that it’s too late to change them, and it’s better (and more fun) to appreciate their quirks. I recently spent some time in Florida hanging with my folks…here’s audio of the story:

Oh Hello! Calgary’s New Rock Alternative X92.9 FM is growing and growing, with more and more people making the switch to radio that doesn’t suck.  We celebrated our first anniversary on January 1.

It runs weekdays from 2-7PM, which includes the 6 O’Clock Rock Report, an hour of music news, interviews and some damn good music.

The Archies are still hanging around pop culture after all these years. First it was their stirring performance of a Sex Pistols classic:

Lynch loves to talk about me and my show on his show, although has trouble distinguishing between busting balls and personal attacks. Here’s a good example:
