about

An extensive clip where Phineas says 'hello' too many times, rails against his nemesis Ronald Redball, solicits feedback from the listening audience, and tells corny jokes while awkwardly talking to callers along with his friend, Mr. 'Your Name Here' until finally callers demand that they get back into the mom and dad mix. Don Joyce plays samples (including that of Negativland's The Weatherman and his mother) and music in the background. Suicide Man calls and talks about his family problems and a caller imitates a german psychiatrist who tries to analyze Phineas' impulses. This is a hidden track available only with the entire program.
