So we performed the whole thing live, had mics in the control room, where not only was I acting (badly) but firing in the effects on hot keys. Take a listen on the Soundcloud clip below.
Goodbyes are often handled badly by radio managers, Danny Baker is a prime example. There are some great 'goodbyes' in the new book by John Myers 'Team It's Only Radio.' My own personal favourite, (not in the book) was a manager who told a contract presenter that he 'just loved the show.' and thought that he could 'see a rosy future' for the presenter. On the strength of this meeting the guy went out and bought a brand new car. The following week the same presenter was taken into the managers office and told he was fired and that he had already done his last show!
