obviously i did it again right before the next commercial break, immediately after playing Don’t Stop Me Now by [struck out] Queen David Bowie. the phone immediately began to ring. “ARE YOU AN IDIOT?” one of the callers began, “DAVID BOWIE???? THAT WAS QUEEN!" “I thought David Bowie was the lead singer of Queen though?” | replied with as much innocent earnestness as i could conjure. I could hear an intake of breath as the infuriated boomer on the other end of the line struggled to figure out where to even start. And thus, the Mad Dad Hour was born. . tricktster [reply screenshot] @tricktster you really gotta tell us the aftermath after that day I kept doing the same joke for an hour a week for an entire year, and the dads NEVER caught on. After episode 1 of the new format | started taking the angry dad calls on air, which added another layer of hilarity to the whole concept.
