Let's Talk About Me

Intro
Speaker: "Gentleman, the essence of the American military position presently, in all due respect to the Queen's government, is that the NATO allies have to present a military posture that is relevant to the core problems of what faces us all. Sure, you're going to realize the socialization and military intelligence and military posture that relates to the individual population and the press interpretation of such..."
[ungrateful snort].... "See, see, these people don't want to hear what I have to say... See, you're being image conscious... I want Alan to do the talking. Alan? Name a topic."
Alan: "Name a topic?"
Speaker: "Any topic, any topic."
Speaker: "Well... You must understand... the essence of Porcupinus Contravius, which is generally the North American Porcupine, which are friends, and they are friends, here in Europe, don't perhaps have the opportunity to visualize or duly seek in a hunting mode... is an animal that can directly assume a posture of defense through its natural vehicles. Everyone knows that a porcupine has a natural spinal region that is of critical nature to its offenders."
Break
Speaker: "At WGN we believe in the positive angle of the story...Hey Mom, Dad, what the hey, what the heck... Let's drive inbounds on the loop and get to the job, because we here in America believe in making it happen. OK, hey guys, go out to the ballgame... Mom, Dad, kids, what a great way to have a good time. Wrigley Field, 1:15 PM, let's get to those box office seats." Speaker: "We have now a couple of minutes after the hour of... the bewitching hour of 1 in the morning... and a good, good morning on the all-night special, Soft Rock 102.5 here in Brentwood... Boy, it's good to be here to volunteer the love... the LOVE!... unlike a lot of the great balladeers of today, particularly here in American radio."
