Best Radio Morning Show

Dave and Chuck "the Freak,"

CIMX-FM (88.7); 89xradio.com: 

What does it say about the state of Detroit radio when, despite all the high salaries, higher egos and cutthroat competition, MT readers have decreed three years in a row that the best morning radio show on the air is bottled in Windsor? We may think of our neighbors to the south as gentler, more refined souls, but Dave Hunter and Chuck Urquhart shatter that illusion every time they open a microphone. Male bikini waxing, the smells of women's farts, the worst songs to have sex by — aided and egged on by their on-air sidekick Lisa Way, virtually no subject is too gross or too far off-limits for this duo. (Or their freeway billboards, apparently.) Dave and Chuck seem convinced their 5-10 a.m. weekday snickerfest is cursed, that celebrities they ridicule in their "X Files" gossip segments seem to suffer dire fates shortly afterward, but their on-air concept of two best buds trading verbal gross-out bombs in the boys' room has proved to be nothing but a broadcast blessing.
