[comedy by Ken Bradbury, 2001] Two maintenance people take over the air waves at W.H.I.K. radio when the sole announcer is unconscious. (written for 2m, but other combinations will work) [8 -10 minutes] Two script minimum order.

 

(first, they cause the problem)

 

PARKER:  Watch that mop! (Strobe has accidentally struck the Boss with the end of his mop) Oh, no! You killed him! You killed him with your mop!

STROBE:  It wasn’t even loaded!

PARKER:  (bending, and slapping the Boss) What’re we gonna do? What’re we gonna do?

STROBE:  I guess we’ll have to mop it all over again.

 

(then compound the problem)

 

PARKER:  Forget it! We gotta go on! (in a lively radio voice) Good morning and welcome to W.H.I.K.! The voice of Hicksville! This is Boss Redman with latest in news, weather and sports! And now … here’s … uh … Strobe Lanksy with the weather! Strobe?

STROBE:  Huh?

PARKER:  (covering the microphone with his hand) The weather! Give ‘em the weather!

STROBE:  I don’t know the weather.

PARKER:  Look at the window, you idiot.

STROBE:  (looking out) The weather is …

PARKER: And here comes the weather …

STROBE:  The weather is … just fine.

PARKER:  Temperature?

STROBE:  (holding his finger out the window) Pretty good!

PARKER:  And today’s forecast?

STROBE:  (again with the finger) More of the same.

 

(even creating their own commercials)

 

PARKER:  (back into the mic) Are you feeling run down?

STROBE:  Yeh.

PARKER:  Worn out?

STROBE:  Uh-huh.

PARKER:  (covering the mic) Not you, you idiot!

STROBE:  Oh.

PARKER:  Does it seem like everything is just crashing down around you? Then maybe it’s time you tried Aunt Martha’s Tanning Spa and Full Body Massage.

STROBE:  Aunt Martha? She does that?

PARKER:  Quiet! At Aunt Martha’s you find just the thing you need to get your body back in shape. Here’s a testimonial from a satisfied customer. (hands mic to Strobe)

STROBE:  Uh … Aunt Martha has cold hands.
