| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, welcome to Selecdord's Too Hot for Radio. |
| 0:08.0 | It's me, a pardon and chairla, hostess with the mostest, questionable content. |
| 0:13.0 | Specifically, stories that we simply cannot and will not air on public radio. |
| 0:19.0 | Tales too sexy, too dirty, too upsetting for some, but thankfully, just right for you freaks out there on the web. |
