Happy Birthday Bobby Dall! The bassist for Poison turns 57 on November 2nd.
Today we take a trip back to 1988 when Poison came to Lake Compounce at perhaps the height of their popularity. Poison was out promoting their second studio album Open Up and Say…Ahh!, which included hit songs “Nothin’ but a Good Time” and “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.” Joining Poison on the bill was Lita Ford and Britny Fox.
During the song “Back To The Rocking Horse,” an upset Bret Michaels paused the show due to technical difficulties. After it was fixed, the band returned to the stage and played on.

Governor Lamont held a very serious press conference yesterday about the rising infection rate. Chaz and AJ played the clip with some music to amplify the effect, and then played a word association game with AJ saying the first thing he could think of when presented with a “red alert” town. (0:00)
Ashley still hasn’t watched “Sinister,” so she will be punished with the worst movie Chaz and AJ could think of, “Battlefield Earth.” John Travolta called in to talk about his movie being misunderstood. (9:49)

Carole Baskin of “Tiger King” fame was on the show, and Chaz and AJ had more than one question for her about the disappearance of her husband. (34:09)

President Trump was on the phone to talk about Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation into the Supreme Court, Mike Pence being the perfect hype man, and why he’s going to be Rudy Giuliani for Halloween. Then, former VP Joe Biden wouldn’t give the phone back to the President. (0:00)

This week we celebrate Timothy B. Schmit’s birthday! The bassist and vocalist for the Poco and the Eagles turns 73 years old on October 30th.
Today we look back at an Eagles tour we thought we’d never see. After a 14 year hiatus (or “vacation” as Glenn Frey put it) the Eagles reunited in 1994 with the five Long Run-era members: Frey, Schmit, Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Don Felder. The band went on a massive world tour that lasted over two years. Luckily we got to see tail end of that tour when the Eagles came to Hartford in 1996.

Chaz and AJ invited Dr. Dennis on to see if Ashley had a legit claim about her mental anguish, as an excuse for not watching “Sinister” over the weekend. (0:00)

Boss Keith raged his way through a segment ridiculing Ashley for bailing on his assignment to watch “Sinister.” He settled on the perfect punishment movie for her, though. (45:49)
