I GOT MY SONG ON THE DAVES OF THUNDER PODCAST!

I don't think I've ever mentioned this in Internet Land, but I'm a big Adam Carolla fan and listen to his podcast on a regular basis.  I'm also a fan of the Daves of Thunder podcast, which is one of the shows on Carolla's ACE Broadcasting Network.  I've actually been listening to Dave Dameshek since back when he was on ESPN radio.  The show plays listener submitted songs on a regular basis, so I wrote a song using samples from the show and submitted it to the show's producer, Jacuzzi Pete. a few weeks ago.  And never heard a word.  Then on the next podcast the Daves make a big deal about how Jacuzzi Pete is at home really sick, so I figured that it's just my luck that I submitted the song when he's ill and it probably never got listened to.  I'm at home today, furloughed for the week, listening to the newest Daves of Thunder podcast and playing video games when -

You can start listening at 19:40 when the Daves provide some context for my song - "I'll Be Your Sink" - (you'll definitely want a little context because it won't make much sense otherwise).  Of course, the song is then followed by Jacuzzi Pete mentioning that he forgot who the hell I'm am, followed by me having a minor heart attack.  Eventually he finds my name and mentions me at the 25 minute mark.

And mispronounces it.

As everybody does.

Sigh.

Baty!  Long A!  Like Warren Beatty!  Not Batty!  NOT BATTY!  Oh well, at least it got in there.  Here's a higher quality version of the song -

Hopefully the song will be listed on the website's fan songs page  - http://www.adamcarolla.com/DNDBlog/2010/08/11/fan-songs/ at some point.

  1. "Talented" and "creepy": that about sums it up, Batty. Nicely done.

  3. All these years later, I just listened to this episode again. Your song should be on YouTube—it was one of the best!
