Sunday Funnies with Wacky Ben

13/07/2025

I almost thought I wasn't gonna get this show uploaded, and I'm half right. We're continuing our new 2-hour direction during the final run of Sunday Funnies with the latest from Steve Goodie, plus Superman, Jurassic Park, Pinky And The Brain, ice cream, and lots more including the Dumb Newsbreak and the weekly Wacky 5 countdown. The show will be delayed on Archive due to upload errors (again), so listen on madmusic.com and Mixcloud for now. Enjoy.

Sending prayers to Ray Stevens as he makes a full recovery.

Country Music Hall of Fame member Ray Stevens is in recovery after undergoing minimally invasive heart surgery yesterday morning. Last Friday evening, Ray complained of chest pain and was admitted to a Nashville hospital. After a heart catheterization procedure, it was determined he’d suffered a mild heart attack.

Ray's initial surgery was successful but performances at his CabaRay Showroom are understandably cancelled through July 2025 as he recovers.

Any cards of well wishes can be directed to:

It's the start of our new 2-hour direction and warm up for the preparation of the upcoming Wacky Ben's Laff Attack beginning August 15th. We have a reworking of Insane Ian's Ghostbusters tribute, plus a new song by Brian Coyne about the constant hate against WNBA player Caitlin Clark, James Earl Jones recites Casey At The Bat, and a new Spaceballs sequel plus many other songs including the Dumb Newsbreak and the weekly Wacky 5 countdown. Hope you enjoy the new 2-hour direction before the show changes it's name next month. In the meantime, please enjoy the show.

We close the month of June with an early 4th of July celebration, a new medley of Weird Al medleys, a belated Father's Day song sung by grandpa, 40 years of Back To The Future, a road trip with Goofy and Max, and the dreaded autocorrect. Plus the Dumb Newsbreak and the Wacky 5. After this episode, we're dropping an hour and will be going two-hours for the rest of the run of Sunday Funnies as a way of preparing for the two-hour run of the soon to be Wacky Ben's Laff Attack beginning Friday August 15th. Enjoy.

I'm looking for help in creating radio style IDs for my soon to be renamed podcast Wacky Ben's Laff Attack. The kind of IDs you'd hear on the radio to play in between songs and during break. Message me or post a comment if you're willing to help.

Quick announcement, after June 29th, I will be automatically bumping the show from an hour to two hours because an hour hasn't been working out as I had hoped. We'll do this for the remainder of Sunday Funnies before renaming the show to Wacky Ben's Laff Attack after episode 100 on Friday August 15th. Yes, a reminder that we will be moving to Fridays after August 10th. Now someone on madmusic.com game me crap renaming the show, and I explained that if by some miracle this show gets picked up on a radio station, a good chance it wouldn't air on a Sunday. So, that's why the name change was what I intended. And speaking of madmusic.com, I have been having playlist set up issues lately, and even though I was fortunate enough to get the playlists set up, I only hope the glitches that keep happening will be fixed soon. That is all for now.

Instead, we have what maybe the last number 1 song for the monthly Top 10 on The Dr. Demento Show, a tribute to White Lotus, Tim Hawkins vs. a Karen, the 20th anniversary of Dare To Be Stupid, a tribute to Dr. Demento, and we remember Ed Gale. Plus the weekly Dumb Newsbreak and the Wacky 5. Enjoy.
