Give it to SSD this Wednesday!


This Wednesday, February 29th from 6-7pm, call 1-800-989-9368 or head to WFMU.org and pledge $75 or more to get the Seven Second Delay DJ Premium DVD. This year Ken and Andy are offering a compilation of the best sex tapery, with your hosts (fully clothed!) in the corner of the screen offering off-color commentary. Finally a semi-legitimate excuse to buy this crap! NSFW.
