Vinny Bucci returns to talk about his past year in Atlanta show business. Most notably Art and Booch discuss the last day at Rock 100.5 of Larry Wachs, the original Regular Guy. It's also known as "The Day the Other 50% of the Laughter Died" (Regular Guys co-host Eric Von Haessler was let go the year prior).
Vinny also tells us about the independent films and a comedy TV pilot he's been featured in.
Also in the mix are the campaign of Donald Trump, transgenders and political correctness in comedy. 92 minutes - don't be scared.
Art's comments: "Down a couple of energy drinks before you listen to this one! Vinny's got a load of energy and stories to tell, so be ready to keep up!"
Show number 40 is our longest show ever! It's literally too much show!
Rock 100.5/Atlanta's Vinny Bucci returns. He talks about the series of independent film roles he's had in the past year, which includes being directed by former Martin cast member Tommy Ford. He also candidly discusses the dismissal of Eric Von Haessler from the Regular Guys morning show.
Next, ATL-based punk band Onchi (pronounced with a long "O;" own-chi ) discusses how they came together to create a space punk band with synth bass and sci-fi-inspired lyrics. Controversial changes at the largest college radio station in America, Georgia State University's Album 88, are also mused over. Four Onchi tunes are featured: "EYEz," "Tonight We Ride," "Class War !" and "Black Nougat." 1 hour 45 minutes.
Art's comments: "I thought combining a comedian and band would make for a more interesting show. It resulted in the longest show yet! This will be great for a long walk or morning commute.
"Eric Von Haessler's exit and the sudden changes in the Regular Guys show have been of interest to all Atlanta radio fans. I was surprised Booch knew as much as he did and discussed everything openly. He's acquired a pretty impressive film resume, too, in just the past couple of years.
"As for Onchi, I've been addicted to their Soundcloud page for about a month now. My interview with them kind of reminds me of the clip of Tommy Smothers interviewing Pete Townshend, though. (I'm Tommy Smothers in that analogy.)"
Just when you thought it was over, Art stages a triumphant return!
First, Art details where the show has been, and more importantly, why he's back to do it again.
Then, Vinny Bucci of Rock 100.5's The Regular Guys Show joins Art in the studio. "The Booch" has had a lot of adventures in the year since he last appeared. The Booch and Art discuss "sharts," the day Larry Wachs stripped naked in the studio, whether the show has ever gotten him laid, and how Booch gets along with fellow show member Sebas. 1 hr. 17 minutes.

Art's comments: "This is my class project for Shock Jock 101. I don't know what it is, but a visit from the Booch brings the vulgar comments out of me. Was this a good idea? Only time, and your ears, will tell."
Vinny Bucci, a.k.a. "The Booch," of Rock 100.5's Regular Guys morning show, visits Art in the studio. Booch discusses his journey from being turned away from open mic nights to becoming a regular feature on a top-rated, large market morning radio show. Only one glitch -- Booch was confronted by the police and suspected of planning a bank robbery before he could get to the studio! (Details inside.) He also discusses an embarrassing thing he did to curry the favor of a big-name comic, discovering a close friend's bisexuality, and whether or not he has, or would, do fellow intern Brandi. (Details also inside.) 57 minutes. NOTE: Explicit language.
Art's comments: "Despite how he may sometimes be portrayed on the Regular Guys show, the Booch is a really sharp guy, and though it may sound hokey to say it, he's also super nice. He has never heard of the band Anthrax, however, and that makes me feel old."
