I have them here with Mojo Nixon's I Hate Banks, followed by a 'WPON. The Weapon' station ID.

'Don't get mad, get a weapon. WPON.' Followed by some remix involving 'Ahmadinejad'

"It doesn't matter what party they work for, they'll screw you."

Peaking at about an S7 on the R8 SIO 323

Been listening in since 0135. Very strong, thought it might be Wolverine... ID" Don't Get Mad, get a weapon, WPON, The Weapon".
Parody song about the leader of Iran  "Who Is Ahmadinejad?"
