Host: Dusty Street, Dr. Drew

Show Summary:
Just as a warning, this recording is a bit rough at times.
Odd show, it's very old and the Poorman isn't even there so Dusty Street is sitting in along with Drew.
Devo has a new CD of a live concert from December 9, 1988 at the Palace. Drew brings up that before anything else, they have to sing the Loveline Jingle. Some advice is given based on what the band has seen in the animal kingdom.
Apparently there was a Devo giveaway contest prior to this show. The winner is called up on the air but there is an message saying the number is unavailable. After a second try they get a answering machine but leave a message by the band.
The Loveline Jingle is sung again and the sound levels get a little goofy shortly after. They give out the AIDS and drug abuse hotline numbers for anyone who wants them.
Some kid in high school claims he offered $3,000 to get a girlfriend but nobody responded. The call gets cut off short though. Perhaps the person recording the show had to flip the tape or something.
The band says Westwood None actually paid for the recording of their live CD. Before taking any more calls they sing the Loveline Jingle again.
A guy calls about using nitrous oxide. He also has a slogan for AIDS awareness that goes "When in heat, package your meat."
Drew says doctors are currently thinking smoking marijuana is 7 times more likely to cause cancer and lung disease than Camel cigarettes.
One more Loveline Jingle is sung and the next caller named Rob addresses the band members as Mr. Mothersbaugh and Mr. Casale.
Drew says where they think AIDS may have come from. One final Loveline Jingle is played. Dusty puts in a plug for KROQ. Another call is taken and the recording fades out.

it’s crazy how different the thinking was back then about marijuana..
i wonder where that stuff was coming from in Drew’s medical journals.
good show. interesting to note guest participation in early 90’s loveline and later 2000’s where bands just sit back and are afraid to say a word.
Devo is a fun and interesting guest. Too bad there aren’t any other shows with them.
Caller Mia is 15 and is looking at asking out a guy. She sounds so innocent and compared to later love line callers who were her age.
