Behind the Mic: Riggs<br />

95.7 the Hog, Daytona Beach<br />

On our daily Morning HOG radio show, we are<br />

constantly challenged by the bosses to talk<br />

about what is relatable to YOU, the listener.<br />

And short of coming to your house or grabbing<br />

a beer and shooting the shit, there’s no exact<br />

science to knowing what that relatable radio<br />

content really is. So we at The Morning HOG /<br />

95.7 The HOG try to connect with our audience<br />

through many different avenues. There is extensive<br />

research, data collection, and a tremendous<br />

amount of ratings minutiae that I won’t bore<br />

you with that leads us to knowing what may<br />

work on the air. But obviously this comes with<br />

some bad reads and failed attempts. I decided<br />

to reveal some of the segment ideas we have<br />

tried and for whatever reason, they just didn’t<br />

catch on…<br />

The 8 o’clock Donut Toss - This plan involved<br />

flinging Krispy Kremes out of our 3rd story<br />

studio window toward cars racing down International<br />

Speedway Boulevard. Passersby would<br />

get to keep the donut that landed on or in their<br />

car and redeem it for a clean one at participating<br />

locations. The idea failed for several reasons,<br />

including the lack of openable windows<br />

and ants … lots of ants. Also, police frown upon<br />

donut-related traffic snarls.<br />

Captive Date - Lots of radio shows across the<br />

country have attempted this rather innocent<br />

idea where 2 callers are connected and sent on<br />

a date… to our storage room, where they are<br />

“sequestered” for 24 hours and are kept awake<br />

during their date by a series of air horn blasts<br />

every half hour. While our first couple did have<br />

an emotional connection, we had to discontinue<br />

the segment after our lawyers threw around<br />

words like “kidnapping” and “false imprisonment”.<br />

Lesson learned.<br />

- Tell Off My Boss - Another great idea taken<br />

down by unfortunate circumstances. I mean,<br />

who hasn’t wanted to speak freely to their boss,<br />

right? Well we solicited callers who wanted to<br />

tell off their boss and had Guy do it for them.<br />

This was hilarious radio until we found out one<br />

“boss” was the Sheriff. Guy apologized, but the<br />

damage was done. We made a donation and all<br />

is well now.<br />

- Find The Mustard - How frustrating is it when<br />

you are dining and can’t find the condiments?<br />

We know, VERY. So we sent Intern Steve to<br />

a local eatery, mic’d him up, and had him announce<br />

that he had taken all the mustard and<br />

that whoever finds it first gets a limited edition<br />

Morning HOG Mustard Bottle, numbered and<br />

signed by Riggs and Guy. There were scuffles<br />

and the threat of a man promising to “beat the<br />

Grey Poupon out of him”, plus the novelty of a<br />

unique morning show collectible was not as big<br />

of a draw as we thought. We got the last laugh,<br />

though, as the mustard was in Steve’s speedo<br />

the entire time!<br />

- RIGGS’ Rapid Paternity Test - Look, there’s<br />

clearly still an audience for this stuff ‘cuz Maury<br />

Povich still has a show, right? I did a lot of Internet<br />

research and realized that helping people<br />

find answers doesn’t have to take so long, so I<br />

spent a substantial amount of slush fund cash<br />

on the chemicals and equipment. Listeners<br />

dropped their swabbed DNA in our radio station’s<br />

mailbox and we would do a weekly test<br />

and announce the results. While the segment<br />

was time-efficient for the show, it proved scientifically<br />

inaccurate and we ruined a lot of lives.<br />

My bad.<br />

- Request A Sound - We play plenty of music<br />

but not nearly enough sound effects. So this<br />

idea involved listener requests for their favorite<br />

sounds. It went smoothly for a couple weeks<br />

but our research showed after week 3 it was<br />

87% fart sounds and a large jump in requests for<br />

silence. Message received, segment suspended.<br />

- The Morning HOG Birthday Piñata - This involved<br />

a monthly drawing from our listener<br />

database for a special delivery of the birthday<br />

piñata. We stuffed the thing with 95.7 The HOG<br />

t-shirts, stickers, candy, cash, and some beverages<br />

from our Brew Review.<br />

But paper mache is messy and difficult to get<br />

dried and hardened, so the weight of the prizes<br />

frequently broke through the HOG piñata<br />

and turned the winner’s birthday into a mess of<br />

mopping and apologies.<br />

- What Letter Is In Intern Steve’s Fanny Pack? -<br />

This segment combines listeners love for guessing<br />

the alphabet incrementally and Steve’s love<br />

of his fanny pack. Seems like a win-win, but<br />

there’s always one turd in the punch bowl who<br />

wants to argue that the Greek alphabet is alive<br />

and well… we may have to re-tool and bring this<br />

show sizzler back into rotation. Stay tuned.<br />

- Velvet or Velour - We put Intern Steve on the<br />

corner of ISB and Nova Road in a tank top and<br />

kilt then had people reach under and determine<br />

if he was wearing velvet or velour trunk briefs.<br />

Again, the sensitive times we currently work in<br />

left this segment in the dust as several contestant<br />

complaints read “I’ll never be clean again”<br />

and “What’s wrong with him?”.<br />

Riggs & Guy Pudding Bus - This plan was<br />

doomed from the start. Take a tour bus, a keg<br />

of Lagunitas, lots of metal CDs, dancers, Madden<br />

2019, inversion tables and a large inflatable<br />

pool full of vanilla pudding and you have the<br />

makings of one hell of a party. Then you hear<br />

what you didn’t want to hear…<br />

“Shit, we forgot the waivers”. Paperwork always<br />

before pudding, so the bus never left the parking<br />

lot. But don’t give up on this one either…<br />

we know a guy.<br />

If any of those happen to catch your attention<br />

or if you have something you think we should<br />

try on-air, swing by 957thehog.com and drop<br />

a note in The Morning HOG Listener Suggestion<br />

Box. We will be selecting some of your<br />

ideas each Monday and test driving them on<br />

the show. As always, reach out at 957thehog<br />

on Facebook and Instagram and hit the studio<br />

hotline at 386-866-0957.<br />

We look forward to hearing from you.<br />

Be a part of it!<br />

Cheers!<br />

Phantom Foodie<br />

36<br />

Take-Out<br />

Edition<br />

The question of the day seems to be, where to go to eat, whether they’re<br />

open, whether they have curbside service and whether they deliver.<br />

There are so many things that are different now that we are dealing with<br />

Covid-19. Believe it or not, several venues have gone out of their way to<br />

make it easier to get food during these difficult times.<br />

One of these places, Prima Pizza Cucina in New Smyrna Beach, indicates<br />

their business has been skyrocketing ever since the start of the Coronavirus.<br />

In speaking with one of the restaurant workers at Prima, he mentioned<br />

that the reason business is bigger than ever is the fact that they<br />

have limited seating and to go orders come in faster than having to turn<br />

tables.<br />

One thing is for sure, they don’t slouch when putting to go orders together.<br />

I’ve had their dine in food several times and there’s no doubting<br />

the consistency in the taste and quality. On my first take-out visit, at the<br />

recommendation of a friend, I decided to try the meatballs and ricotta. He<br />

was absolutely correct - these were some of the best meatballs I’ve ever<br />

had. They were served with garlic bread and a rich and tangy sauce - absolutely<br />

perfect, and left me full for the night.<br />

On my second take-out visit, I went with the vodka pie pizza and this<br />

experience was almost better than the first. It was cooked to perfection,<br />

which is not always easy to find when getting a pizza to go. They definitely<br />

pulled it off.<br />

While the atmosphere isn’t quite as fun at home as it is going to a place<br />

like Prima Pizza, there’s no doubt in my mind that the food experience is<br />

almost the same, which isn’t the case for all of the restaurants in the area.<br />

In writing this, I couldn’t help but pull up the menu and I think tonight will<br />

be the third time in the last month that I’ll get a to go order; the baked<br />

sausage and peppers just seem to be calling my name.<br />

Make sure to check out Prima the next time you’re in New Smyrna Beach.<br />

As usual, it will be packed (as much as is allowed by law, anyway). But you<br />

can always count on the same quality when you get it to go.<br />
