The Vibe 001/Transcript

[Intro music]

Announcer: This is Loudspeaker.

Cheyenne: Good evening out there, D.C. It’s Cheyenne Midej, “the Jersey Devil.” How y’all making it through this week so far? Better than me, I hope. But whether you’ve been bouncing along with a spring in your step or feeling like a million-year-old fossil, it’s good now. ‘Cause you’re turned into The Vibe and for the next hour it’s just you, me, and whatever happens to manifest its way into the airwaves. And I think I see some David Bowie coming in to kick things off.

[Song: "Modern Love" by David Bowie]

[Song: "Mean Ass Drunk" by Watsky]

[Song: "Godzilla" by Blue Öyster Cult]

[Song: "New Kid" by Ex Hex]

Cheyenne: A few of you sweethearts have called in asking what’s stressing me out this week, and I’ll get around to it. It’s just that, well, honestly, it’s a little Weird. And the Vibe is about getting de-stressed anyway, right? Look, how about we listen to some more tunes and then we’ll talk. Sound good? Sounds good.

[Song: "Disco! in the Panic Room" by Bug Hunter]

[Song: "Jolene" by Radical Face]

[Song: "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell" by Das Racist]

[Song: "Stress" by Jim's Big Ego]

[Promotion: Diane Promotion]

Cheyenne: You just heard Bug Hunter with "Disco! in the Panic Room," Radical Face doing a cover of "Jolene," Das Racist with "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell." And yeah, okay, maybe me being a little cute and ending things with "Stress" by Jim's Big Ego. Because here’s the thing, listeners. I am stressed. I’ve been getting these phone calls for the past few days, like, constantly. I know what you’re thinking, like, those robo-calls: (mockingly) "We’ve heard your car insurance is alive and wants to file for taxes with the IRS."

Yeah, it’s not like that. There’s definitely a person or something on the other end. And they just say one word real soft and quiet, and then they hang up. And I can barely make out what they’re saying, but I swear to God I am pretty sure they are saying, "Cheyenne."

I know. I know it’s creepy. I tried blocking them but it’s a different number every time. The only thing is that it is the same area code. Always 205. I looked it up and apparently that’s Alabama? I don’t even know anyone in Alabama.

Anyways, creep with my phone number in Alabama, this one’s for you.

[Song: "Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)" by The Doors]

[Song: "Gennifer Flowers" - Fever Dolls]

[Song: "Two Door Ford Fiesta" - Spherical]

[Song: "Too Cool for This" - Yasmin Nur]

Cheyenne: That was "Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)" by The Doors for my (sarcastically) special new friend, along with "Gennifer Flowers" by Fever Dolls, "Two Door Ford Fiesta" by Spherical, and "Too Cool for This" by Yasmin Nur. And that about does it for today’s show. This has been Cheyenne Midej, the Jersey Devil, saying to anyone in the greater D.C. area with a 205 area code phone number: Stop fucking calling me! ‘Night!

[SFX: Whining mechanical noise, someone saying the word “Stop”]
