Graduating from the week


Having kids is bad for your teeth? A weird story in the Gazette today says you’re more likely to lose your teeth if you have kids. Strange.

Prom night for Suzanne tonight! – OK, her daughter actually.

Tasso sings! “Crimson and Clover”, pretty scary. Aaron WAS gonna play it, but instead he plays a request for a song by Todd Rundgren, “Hello it’s me”

Here’s a drum intro for you – George McCrae “Rock your baby” did you get it?

Time for the top 4 excuses for guys to go see Sex and the City…I wonder if there'll be any guys there at all

Kim from the Gym called to say – a lot of stuff! She's special, and a little wired.

Aaron plays us a drum intro that leads to him playing the whole song; Aerosmith's "Walk this way"

Email joke!
A woman was walking with her morning coffee when she noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery. A long black hearse was followed by a second long black hearse about 50 feet behind. Behind the second hearse was a solitary woman walking a pit bull on a leash. Behind her were 200 women walking single file. The woman couldn’t stand the curiosity. She respectfully approached the woman walking the dog and said, “I am so sorry for your loss, and I know now is a bad time to disturb you, but I’ve never seen a funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?”
The woman replied, “Well, that first hearse is for my husband.”
“What happened to him?”
The woman replied, “My dog attacked and killed him.”
She inquired further, “Well, who is in the second hearse?”
The woman answered, “My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my husband when the dog turned on her.”
A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two women. “Can I borrow the dog?”
“Get in line with the other 200”

Montreal Mayor Gerald Tremblay calls to tell us about some plans that aren't necessarily gonna happen, but they should, they sound great.

Enjoy the weekend!

Sex and the morning show


We start it of with some Sex and the City talk. Everybody liked the movie and we tried to figure out how well it’ll do over the weekend…

Can you imagine a depanneur selling sushi? It’s gonna happen. Pretty gross.

Drum intro time, this one's "you keep me hanging on" from kim wylde. Remember that one?

Top 4 bad romance novel lines – funny stuff!

Did you see the Gazette today? Aaron made fun of Eric Claptons "guitar face", he kinda looked like he was taking a ... nap

Email joke from Marcia
A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is politics?"
Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me capitalism. Your Mom, she's the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you the people. The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we'll call him the Future. Now, think about that and see if that makes sense,"
So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what dad had said.
Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed. The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now."
The father says, "Good son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about."
The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep doo-doo."


A pretty crazy day, even Aaron's mom called to say how much she enjoyed the movie last night. Wow, who knew her pull had that kind of son? (get it?)

Winnie couldn't see over Aaron's hat, but that wasn't really why she called.

We enjoyed some hot dogs for breakfast and try to keep them down after listening to a country song.

See ya later!

Montreal's Sexiest People!

(click image for larger view)

For the last two weeks, you've been getting ready for Q92's exclusive English premiere of the new Sex and the City: The Movie at StarCite (it's tonight!). Part of the fun has been voting through Q92fm.com for Montreal's Sexiest Person. We have the results and here they are!

Most sexy man Justin Trudeau
Most sexy woman: Our own Suzanne Desautels

Thanks for voting!

Turn down your shirt



What a start to the show! We all gang up on Aaron and his bright “shirt du soleil”

Kinda cool today to start, but everybody seems to be in a great mood (must be the shirt)

We played a listener request in the early part of the show – which is pretty cool, all you have to do is send in the song you’d like to hear and Aaron will play it! (Well, maybe)

Aaron plays us a little of his interview with “Big” from Sex and the City. We have some more clips for later.

Top 4 other things left by Maxime Bernier in his girlfriend’s apartment.

We’re just moments away from finding out who the sexiest montrealer is, and we replay our little song from yesterday “lonely boy”

Time for an email joke from Frank.
Three nuns were assigned to paint a room in a church. It was a really hot day and the nuns were getting really hot in those black clothes they wear so they took off all their clothes and went on painting naked. Later they heard a knock on the door....
"Who is it?” The man who knocked replied, "I'm the blind man". So, the nuns decided to let him in since he would not be able to see them. The nuns let him into the room. The man then looked around the room, then looked at them and said, "OK sisters, where do you want the blinds?

Are you smarter than Lenny? Not too tough today!

Winnie called to let the guys know she has their clothes all lined up for the evening. Tasso's anyway.

See you tomorrow!

$1.43? !!)&!!!



OK, so we kick off the morning with some gas talk. Everybody's freaking out, and rightly so. Last night was insane trying to fill up, and now the price is higher than ever. Great.

Top 4 man-rules! Stop looking at my six-pack!

Mr. Opposition himself Benoit Labonte calls in to say he’s ready to take on Tremblay. He sounds just like him, weird…

Backstreet Boys tickets! We’ve got em all week, and you need to guess another drum intro to win. Domenic got it, but we could barely hear him.

Aaron and Suzanne are battling it out over this sexy Montrealer thing, Aaron put a lot of “thought” into what he had to say.

Email joke time once again, and it’s one from Lisa;
A man goes skydiving. After a fantastic free fall he pulls the rip cord to open his parachute but nothing happens. He tries everything but can't get it open. Just then another man flies by him, going UP. The skydiver yells, "Hey, you know anything about parachutes? The man replies, "No, you know anything about gas stoves?

Paul wins on “are you smarter than Lenny” today. Smart guy.

Aaron sings for more votes – but it doesn’t help too much. Suzanne is the hottest on the show!

Tasso's back



Tasso had a great time fishing, and now he's back to tell us about his trip.

Suzanne golfed yesterday, and Aaron (The Icepack) Rand played a bit of baseball, and he's paying the price today.(ouch)

A goofy show already! A drum intro for you to guess, this one from Devo (Whip it)

Top 4 ways we're keepin' it green here at Q92, and then the mayor calls! Busy Monday.

We play some more kids yes/no for that cool waverunner board, and Nabil wins!

Time for Margret's joke:
A 3-year-old boy examined his testicles while taking a bath. "Mom," he asked, "Are these my brains?"

"Not yet," she replied.


Some sexy talk from everybody - including Celine Dion! She calls to tell us how sexy she is.

Time for some "smarter than Lenny" and we get a winner, see ya!

Friday, May 23, 2008


Friday morning and Tasso's still fishin'

We're here though, getting through the last little bit of the week.

Email joke time once again, this one's from Beatrice:
In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first
witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"

She responded , "Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you
since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big shot, when you haven't the brains to realize you never will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across
the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the defence attorney?" She again replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He
can't build a normal relationship with anyone and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him."

The defence attorney almost died. The judge asked both counselors to
approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice said, "If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you to the electric chair."


We play just one note of a song intro and Massimo gets it in no time. Actually, Sarah the intern got it in 1 second. Suzanne got it as well, kind of.

We played a little yes/no for the kids, but again, no winner. Maybe next week.

Winnie is not too happy about Aaron's lack of a recommendation he gave the mayors office for her.

We play back a call from Tasso - from his so-called fishing trip. Maybe we should have listened to it first? (Nah)

That's it for now, have a great weekend!

Thursday, May 22, 2008

No Tasso!


Tasso's not here today and tomorrow, he's off on his yearly fishing trip.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tasso_ham)

Still a fun day. Aaron won his American Idol bet, that means he gets a free pizza! Nobody could believe some of the weird stuff on the show last night, Mike Myers, ZZ Top, George Michael, you name it.

Suzanne's still having fun with her Indian Jones whip and special theme for traffic.

Hey Tasso called, and he told us about all the food he and the guys brought up. Apparently they're "cutting back" this year. (Yeah right)

"Viking!"

Congratulations to Maria who won the big prize last night!

Wednesday, May 21, 2008

The big day!



Today's the day for our big draw, are you entered???

Tasso wants to run for public office, not for change, just for the pension plan.

Lots of giveaways to get to today - we're actually starting early with some 80's percussion; "Diana Ross - Upside Down" Suzanne got it!

Winnie called to do Aaron a "favor". I think the passes might have been for her...

A special Indiana Jones traffic theme for Suzanne today, with added whip sounds!

Karla's on the phone! We missed her, it's been a while. She went to watch the Montreal Impact play on Monday night and had a great time, maybe too great?

Another drum intro - an EASY one this time. "Rock with you" MJ.

Time for an SR email joke (slightly risque)

Paddy met Mick in the street and said,

"Paddy, will you draw your bedroom curtains before making love to your wife in future?"

"Why?" Paddy asked.

"Because," said Mick, "all the street was laughing when they saw you making love yesterday."

Mick said, "Silly buggers, the laugh's on them.

I wasn't home yesterday."


The Mayor is quite sad about Frank Zampino leaving politics after all these years. By the way he's holding auditions for the job all summer.

Tasso's off fishing, so we won't see him until Monday! See you at the draw tonight.

Tuesday, May 20, 2008

Another rainy day



Back to work Tuesday for everybody (we were here yesterday!)

Let's share a Bentley! Aaron found an ad for a car that would cost nearly three grand a month. Can you imagine? We considered sharing it and taking it for a week each, but maybe not.

Another 80's song for you to guess, this one's from Starship "Nothing's gonna stop us now"

Tasso finds there isn't enough variety when he goes shopping, for deodorant, toothpaste, you name it. Aaron finds there's actually too much.

More of the Top 4 signs you've been mislead by your travel agent.

Celine Dion wants to be voted "Sexiest Montrealer" on our poll, she even called to solicit votes!

Kim from the Gym called and made everybody's head spin! She needs to cut back on the coffee!

Time for an email joke from Anna:
After just a few years of marriage, filled with constant arguments, a young man and his wife decided the only way to save their marriage was to try counseling. They had been at each other's throats for some time and felt that this was their last straw.

When they arrived at the counselor's office, the counselor jumped right in and opened the floor for discussion.

"What seems to be the problem?"
The wife began talking 90 miles an hour describing all the wrongs within their marriage.

After 15 minutes of listening to the wife, the counselor went over to her, picked her up by her shoulders, kissed her passionately for several minutes, and sat her back down. Afterwards, the wife sat there speechless.

He looked over at the husband who was staring in disbelief at what had happened. The counselor spoke to the husband, "Your wife NEEDS that at least twice a week!"

The husband scratched his head and replied...
"I can have her here on Tuesdays and Thursdays."



Are you smarter than Lenny? Well, some people are anyway.

Top 4 once again and we're out of here!

Happy Victoria Day



First things first: Aaron found his wallet AND his pen this weekend.

Some stuff open, some stuff is closed, you've gotta call your respective borough.

Nobody on the roads, except for us this morning.

We have an 80's song for you to guess and even Suzanne got it! (for once) It was "Walk like an Egyptian" from the Bangles.

Email joke time, this one's from Frank:
Returning home from work, a blond was shocked to find her house ransacked and burglarised. She telephoned the police at once and reported the crime.

The police dispatcher broadcast the call on the channels and a K-9 unit patrolling nearby was the first to respond. As the K-9 officer approached the house with his dog on a leash, the woman ran out on the porch, shuddered at the sight of the cop and his dog, then sat down on the steps put her face in her hands and moaned, "I come home to find all my possessions stolen. I call the police for help, and what do they do? They send me a BLIND policeman!"


Lenny the intern is out waiting to have someone tell him that they love him. He's got an Indiana Jones movie pass for ya if you're convincing.He's got a whole bunch of people there vying for his love, but so far the guys are winning.

Winnie TRIED to find Aaron's wallet this weekend, and she wasn't too happy to hear that he found it on his own.

Closing off with the Top 4, and we're off to enjoy the rest of Victoria Day!

Friday, May 16, 2008

Laser Friday!



This just in: On this day in history, the first functioning laser was demonstrated! (piew! piew!)

Aaron lost his wallet(again)and his favorite pen. There's a reward for the wallet by the way.

Top 4 least popular Beatles memorabilia items are great!

Another tough 80's song to guess; "Valerie" from Steve Winwood.

Winnie called up to let Aaron know she's taking care of his lawn, and not looking for his wallet. (she's quite busy)

The next 80's hit was easy; "Addicted to love" by Robert Palmer. Chris got it, but Suzanne didn't know the name.

Have a great long weekend!

Thursday, May 15, 2008

Is it "Hillarama" or "Barrackary"?


Here's that creepy photo Aaron was talking about.

Country Thursday


Tasso's a little lost with the weather forecast, he actually thought yesterday was today, and that today was...Anyway, he mixed up the forecasts.

Did you know that Crocs are falling on hard times? Too many "Croc-offs" (get it?) They had a big factory in Quebec but they had to close it.

Aaron went for a big drive yesterday. To Pointe Claire.

We play our 80's song and get a winner in seconds! "Buffalo Stance" from Neneh Cherry was the song, in case you didn't know.

"Tina Tuna"

Suzanne has been keeping track of how long it took Aaron to call Tina Turner, Tina Tuna. It only took three days.

$82 million on a Van Gogh! Would you spend that much? I dunno, maybe it's just me.

We have another winner for our 80's percussion thingy - "Superwoman" from Karyn White. I thought that was gonna be tougher.

Another song for you to guess - "True Faith" by New Order. Ed Flintstone our new producer knew it in seconds, so did Micheline.

Aaron's "Aunt" Marlene called to tell us about her date last night, pretty disturbing.

See ya!

Wednesday, May 14, 2008

What a day!



It's gonna be a great day! 25 for a high, sunny, you name it.

"Jack" called to play little ditty for us about high gas prices. He was pretty good for a guy on the phone, he even had a drummer, and a guy to sing harmony with him.

We played a little song for everybody stuck in traffic on the 20 in the afternoon. "Stuck on the 20 with you"

Time for our 80's percussion contest - can you guess? "Funky cold medina" by Tone Loc.

Top 4 Horror/Romantic Comedies, good ones!

Are you smarter than Lenny??? Let's see. Our first winner is. Kinda. She won anyway.

Aaron hits us with a few "Yogi-isms" from famous baseball guy Yogi Berra, he was pretty funny!

Winnie was upset with Aaron for not showing up for an event last night at 11, she even had proof that he said he'd go.

"Aunt" Marlene called to fill us in on her upcoming date with Ben Hedges, sounds like it's gonna be a hot one!

Lenny the intern had a "great" idea for a new business. "Banana Julep"?

We're off!

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

Denim Day




Aaron tried something new this morning, an earl morning listener request. Just a little something to help you get started. The first request sounded a lot like Aaron on the phone, but it couldn't have been.

Don't know if you've heard about this new product "Stuperbia"? It reminds Aaron that a good shaman is hard to find.

Aaron played softball last night and is now a little sore, don't know if they won or lost though...

We played a very creepy David Archuleta interview. He told us a little about his dad. Sounds like a nice guy.

Don't forget to donate your 5$ for National Denim Day!

Top 4 rejected Oprah books

Once again it's our 80's song challenge, did you guess it was Donna Summer?

We tried to reach Ben Hedges today, but we got his machine, which prompted Marlene to call and ask about him.

Winnie called to close things off with an important date for Aaron. Only problem is it's at 11PM.

Monday, May 12, 2008

Thanks Mom



A nice mother's day was had by all, Suzanne spent it in the country. Aaron took his mom on a nice drive to Plattsburgh.

Tasso wants the birds to be quiet until after he gets up. You know, those birds are up early in DDO, and they make a lot of noise!

It's 80's flashback week all week, and Aaron's pulling out some hits from back in the day.

Top 4 ways to boost American Idol ratings had everybody talking about who's gonna win. What do YOU think?

Limerick day today, do you know any good ones? Ones that don't have Nantucket in them preferably.

Winnie is back and better (worse) than ever. She took her old job back.

Aaron's Mom sure had fun yesterday, she even bought some Count Chocula!

Do you remember this 80's song? "So Alive" Love and Rockets - classic!

Aaron found a battery in his bed?! We were all speculating as to where it may have come from

Tina Turner tickets all week so stick around!

Friday, May 9, 2008

Lucky Tasso?



Tasso bought a loto ticket yesterday because a woman noticed he dropped a 10 dollar bill in the grocery store. Imagine if he (they) win!

Aaron's mom called to, um, ask about Grand Theft Auto. Actually mother's day plans, which of course he has plenty.

Top 4 worst pieces of motherly advice; "There are no problems that whiskey can't solve"

We're playing Mom's yes/no, finally got a winner for some Rod Stewart tickets.

Now it's kids yes/no, but no winner...

We get a special report from "Winnifred Whitfield" who turns out to be Winnie on location. Whitfield?

Hope everybody has a great Mother's Day!

Thursday, May 8, 2008

Pickles?!



Aaron can't believe that a new sandwich has pickles as it's only condiment. Suzanne doesn't seem to think that's a bad idea though.

Tasso is going to the gym! He's starting today.

Did you hear Bend Hedges yesterday? We play back the interview and try to figure out what he's talking about.

Bob Vila's on the phone to tell us about fixing up 24 Sussex. Nice guy that Bob, not much to say though.

Can you imagine Fabio is still around? He called to tell us what he's up to these days, he sounded kinda "funny".

Aaron plays us a new song from Gavin DeGraw - Suzanne thought it was good, but Tasso thought it sounded pretty country-ish.

We close off with part deux of yesterday's top 4, and we're done!

Wednesday, May 7, 2008

Another roof?



Did you know the Big O is getting another roof? That's crazy, 30 million more.

Everybody has some weird waking-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night stories, and we discover that Tasso has a favorite "blanky" (wah)

Top 4 time once again. "Signs that the driver in front of you is a kid"

Ben Hedges (remember him?) gives us a call to explain why the tobacco industry still insists on launching new brands of cigarettes.

Aaron sang along with Andy Kim's "Rock me gently" much to Suzanne and Tasso's chagrin.

Let's see who's smarter than Lenny the intern today: Nobody! He does it again.

Email joke time. This one's from Lenny (no, not that Lenny)
An old man goes to see the doctor to get a physical. The next day the doctor sees him walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.
The next time the doc sees him he says; "you look like you're doing great!"
The old man says; "you told me to get a hot mamma and be cheerful"
The doctor says; "I said you've got a heart murmur be careful!" get it?

Suzanne was sorely missed yesterday, even though Winnie did a fine job. She's not angry about it at all either.

Tuesday, May 6, 2008

Where's Suzanne?



No Suzanne today! Winnie takes over traffic and does a decent job. We're starting to wonder if maybe she had something to do with Suzanne's disappearance.

"Hollaback girl"

Tasso has a little bit of a problem understanding one of the Top 4 entries, so Aaron plays him some of the song it comes from.

Alphonso Gagliano is on the line! He's doing something new. Publishing his book as a series of blogs (!)

Email joke time - good one!
A guy brings his friend home for dinner. His wife is mad, telling him she had no preparation and doesn't feel like cooking a fancy meal. The husband tells her, "I know, that's why I brought him, the poor sap is thinking about getting married"

Aaron's mom calls to find out who's doing traffic today, and to lay a bit of a guilt trip on Aaron. For a change.

Renato is sad (happy) about the Habs being out. He even wrote them a poem!

Are you smarter than Lenny the intern? Not today, he got it again!

See you tomorrow...

Monday, May 5, 2008

Mariah in NYC




Congratulations to our winner Celina who got to see her idol perform live in New York City!

It's over



Well, better luck next year. A tough game, and a tough series.

Aaron and Suzanne had exciting weekends, horse racing, gala events. Tasso had to work at Tratoria Tasso, which is fun in it's own way, but he's a little jealous.

More top 4 worst biblical movies - we didn't even get struck by lightning this time.

Aaron's mom had a bit of trouble with her cell phone on the weekend. Her phone died, and she's positive that it's because Aaron didn't pay the bill.

Daryl and Daryl called up for those New Kids on the Block tickets, actually they stayed on hold all weekend. Who thought they were such fans?

Email joke time - about a guy who wants to go fishing, and how his wife accuses him of just going to get drunk and not catch anything. He gets home drunk, but stops off to pick up some smoked fish. His wife says; "even I know that fish is smoked" he tells her; "I didn't know the lake would catch fire"

Lenny the intern is SMART! He got the first question right, no problem.

Winne the PA who's now Winnie the intern isn't enjoying her time here too much. In fact she's already bored.

See you tomorrow!

Friday, May 2, 2008

Aaron's garden



Here's what Aarons' might look like.

Boomer the lion is fine, on his way to Granby zoo. Would you like to have had him as a pet?

Some pretty silly stories in the news, Juicy Couture, the island of Lesvos.

"The nutty confessor"

Top 4 worst biblical movies!

Our buddies Daryl and Daryl call for New Kids on the Block tickets (!) Aaron was nice enough to allow to stay on hold until next week in case we get tickets.

Lenny the intern can sing? It's true, and he wants to "sing for the anthem" at the game Saturday.

Email joke time! Three guys in heaven get asked if they cheated on their wives. The first guy didn't, so he's given a Cadillac. The second guy did once, so he gets a BMW. The third guy did six times, so he gets a K car. Later on that day, the second guy is seen crying, and he's asked what's wrong. He says; "I just saw my wife. On a skateboard" get it?

Winnie closes things off with her "Winnie Weekend" update and we're done. See ya!

See you next week!

Thursday, May 1, 2008

Happy May Day



First day of May, silly one too! That lost lion story gets us going.

Suzanne tells us about some rules of the game if you play golf - they're kinda silly.

Another crazy, silly day. Good top 4 list, positives to high gas prices.

We got Elvis Presley on the phone to discuss what would have been his 41st anniversary. He's not pulling any punches.

We play a commercial for a new medication called Style-Enol. It sounds like something that might be useful.

Aaron tells us a classic joke, here it is:
A man entered a restaurant and sat at the only open table. As he sat down, he knocked the spoon off the table with his elbow. A nearby waiter reached into his shirt pocket, pulled out a clean spoon, and set it on the table. The diner was impressed. "Do all the waiters here carry spoons in their pockets?"

The waiter replied, "Yes. Ever since an Efficiency Expert visited our restaurant... He determined that 17.8% of our diners knock the spoon off the table. By carrying clean spoons with us, we save trips to the kitchen."

The diner ate his meal. As he was paying the waiter, he commented, "Forgive the intrusion, but do you know that you have a string hanging from your fly?"

The waiter replied, "Yes, we all do. Seems that the same Efficiency Expert determined that we spend to much time washing our hands after using the men's room. So, the other end of that string is tied to my you-know-what. When I need to go, I simply pull the string, do my thing, and then return to work. Having never touched myself, there really is no need to wash my hands. Saves a lot of time."

"Wait a minute," said the diner, "how do you get it back in your pants?"

"Well, I don't know about the other guys, but I use the spoon."

Our buddy Renato - he's not too happy about the game last night, so he's having a special for any member of the Montreal Canadiens (double price)

Lenny the intern is once again - smart!

See you tomorrow!
