Don & Mike called the hotel where Regis & Kathie Lee were staying in Hawaii to tape a week's worth of episodes. Mike used his Regis voice to gain access to Regis's voice mail. The desk clerk knew something was up because Regis was standing right there in front of him. The clerk put a rather pissed off Regis on the phone and Mike stayed in voice. Real Regis asked him who this was... Mike said "I'm Regis and I'm just picking up my voice mail".
Off the phone line, but still on the air Don was frantically asking Rob and Diana what they should do. You hear both of them in the background screaming to hang up!
Absolutely the BEST!!!
The next week, Don had to air an apology explained what had happened and that they 'never intended to harm Mr. Philbin in any way'.
You will never hear the mess on 'Best of...', either. Several months later Don addressed that they couldn't play it for legal reasons.

1. When they broadcast live from the "Hard Rock Cafe" in DC. My
favorite because it was my first.
2. The first launching of the inflatable love dolls and the calls
from all around of people seeing the helium filled love dolls all over
DC. It was an original idea and spur of the moment which made it
good. The follow up was also good.
3. Live broadcast of going to National Airport. That was fun because
they did a good job of describing the route and police would come up
beside them and everything. Neat also because it didn't mean the
whole show was "The Best Of". They did real stuff going from the
station to the Airport.
4. The first live broadcast from on top of the sleazy hotel in Ocean
City Maryland. They didn't have a bus or anything -- just some die
hard listeners. I drove in from Virginia and went to the top of the
hotel just to see them in person for the very first time and see what
they looked like. Robbay was there positioned at the door to prevent
people from coming out on the roof but he was a little slow and me and
another guy got to sit up there with them. Diana actually scared me
because she was constantly busy and I was afraid she would tell me to
leave if I went over to speak to Don or Mike or Buzz on the break. I
got to see Freda, Big Freda, and Marsha also at this one. Robbay at
that point in time impressed me as someone always trying to hustle but
not quite making it.
One more funny thing they used to do. Mike used to say some stupid
word or phrase when they were going to come out of commercials. I'm
not sure exactly what it was for. The old time listeners might even
remember how we could hear on on the air also. It was usually just an
obscure one word thing.

Referring to Regis talking to Regis:
God, how I wish I did! But I don't. :(
It was one of those train wrecks that made for spectacular radio and it won't ever air again.
The whole show about the desk. Thanks to dudalb for reminding me of that one.
The first aborted trip to Ireland recap.
The "what my husband doesn't know won't hurt him" with some young woman who
used her brother to tell a half-truth. D&M found out it was her brother, her
husband was p****d, but they couldn't do anything to her since she was about 8
months preggers.
The Regis voice mail incident.
Dialing for Tansvestites with Nancy (Buzz).
Several of the Dialing for Tranvestites with Robbay.
Various trips into the Bad Dee Jay tape bin.
The weeks of material they got off of "Females For Hire".
Ng Chow Pei, Hopsing from the Bonanza.
(how's my spellin' TChan?)
Dialing for Transvestites using only the Major Bill tapes or Delores. I liked
it when, after the Dog Wedding (Bo Bo tounged a mutt), they let a few of the
dogs run around unchecked in the WJFK building. I don't remember if they got
the desired result, dog shit &/or piss in the Gerbil's office.
There was a Dialing for Transvestites they did with Robbay as Delores many
years ago. All I can remember is Robbay pretending to take a piss and the boys
playing a pissing sound effect in the background. I don't think I've ever
laughed so hard in my life.

I called and asked if he let Oscar bury a bone in his backyard.
He hung up on me.
Screw 'im. I laughed.

yeah. mike would mention the disease and at the end of the show, someone would
call in and drop the name of the disease to win a prize. i won once with
pneumonia, but that was after they stopped giving away prizes for it.

I'm back y'all! I have found a way to listen to the Gods! Who-ho! The months
of drought have ended! All I had to listen to out here (location deleted) was
the "Bob and Tom Show" which is mildly entertaining, but they cannot hold a
candle to the Radio Gods!

Remember that wierd girl Nan (who later changed her name) that wanted
to marry the radio tower ? They set up a marriage for her so she
could marry the tower. She wasn't all there in my opinion.
Several months later she had a job is some type of radio or TV and had
changed her name. Probably easier than a divorce.

Sure did. Usually in the first half hour.
Then there was some type of contest to log in and repeat the disease
name or something like that.
Just a quirky fun thing.
Remember when Mike used to play the musical keyboard at the start of
the show ? I liked that a lot.
They hate "Mark and Brian". Somehow "Mark and Brian" were somewhere
in Alabama and they stole "Don and Mike's" bits.
At least that is how I recall it.
There's a few of my favorites!!!

Speaking of bad (or old ) DJs ...

That'd be the Maze. His whole rap seemed to be simply reading the lyrics from
a given song.
I still get the dry heaves when I recall his rwaction to finding out which of
his sisters, ER girls called in.
