Dudley and Bob with Matt — 93.7 KLBJ-FM, Austin — Wednesday, October 19, 2016
Part 3: Daniel New Wave Game
Daniel organized an on-air gay speed dating segment featuring Sase (former intern) as the dater meeting four Latino men, facilitated by OnSpeedDating.com. Bobby was chosen as Sase’s date and won a dinner at ALC Steaks. Later, the show attempted Daniel’s New Wave music trivia contest, which became chaotic when Daniel pulled obscure album tracks instead of radio hits, leading to no one identifying most songs. Matt dominated by knowing the deeper cuts.
