… We gotta figure out where Saddam and his camel are hiding …
[Description by Uncle Ricky]
It’s Jack Armstrong and The Breakfast Bunch on WMQX-FM in Greensboro, N.C., from the morning of September 3, 2003. Contributor Jeff Smith recorded all three and one-half hours of this program from his home in Winston-Salem, NC (part of the North Carolina Triad), and this is Part One, broadcast between 5:30 and 6:30 AM.
Joining Jack are Breakfast Bunchers Dee Brockwell, Sky Angel Karen (with traffic reports) and Ed Snow with Oh-Deez Ninety Three news. (In the Carolinas, the “L” sound is often considered optional.) I don’t understand why Jack cuts a couple of records short in this hour, since he certainly had control over the time of the “live” segments. Also unusual  no talk over song intros  just a time check, and that’s it. No attempt to “hit the post”, not at all. But there is an edition of Tabloid Trash.
Wow, radio sure grew up in North Carolina since I moved away. The “Triad” was fortunate to have a morning show and radio station of this quality in 2003. But, I suspect it eventually ended up costing too much for the revenues it produced. This was not the fault of the Breakfast Bunch, this was an enjoyable morning show. But there was a dwindling audience of those who love “oh-deez”. It was 2003, and hip-hop be happenin’.
