Getting the lead out!

Previously on the Superfriends-
Mandy is doing some serious remodeling in her house. First up is shelves to be mounted on her living room walls. Always one to follow safety guidelines, she whips out a small ladder. Mandy position the ladder just so, tools in tow and......... crash! thump! arghhhh! kerplunk! toot!

Deep in the jungles of the most remote and desolate region of the Phillipines, a herd of tribesman have discovered an old radio. They stare at it with wonder and amazement. One of the elderly men shakes it and out comes some English that sounds very strong and competent. That voice is none other than Brian Peters, main host of the Superfriends radio show. All the men look at each other, beat their chests and make some tribal war call. Mandy's voice comes on to interrupt Brian and his reading of the Rangers box score and the men promptly throw the radio in the near by lagoon.

trickling through the studio air, Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Child can be heard.
Brian: good morning to all. Welcome to another edition of the award winning Superfriends radio show. To my left your right at the helm is the always beautiful, athletic, and sexy Christy, technically directing from the mean streets of NRH, Troy and I'll be here but without further ado, let's give it up to the sidekicks of all sidekicks, yuck monkey extrodinairre, Mandy
Mandy whispers: no finger point this time Brian, I know when we're on the air!
Christy: hon, were on right now! ( wonders why she's involved in such trivial mess)
Mandy looks around and realizes that in fact we're live and on the air.
Brian: ok, let's get rolling! It's time for our new featured segment, Mandy's minute.
Troy: do we really have to do this minute thing?
Mandy: yes, it's been heavily requested by one and all.
Troy: by whom?
Brian: let's see, we have pockets of listeners in East Arlington, Waxahachie and some unintelligible areas.
Troy: seems like a big time waste to me.
Mandy: why don't you technically direct.
Troy: I am.
Christy: how old are we?
Brian: I'm 40, bout to be 41..
Christy: babe, that was a rhetorical question. (where's my coffee and happy pills?)

Mandy proceeds to enlighten and pontificate on today's hot social topics. She peruses Facebook, the home page for AOL and Soap Opera Digest.
Brian: well, seems like your minute is up and it's time for our second most favorite segment titled, Rangers box score with Brian.
Troy's ears perk up, Rohan comes running in with sincerity in his eyes.
Mandy vomits in her lap and Christy is seen throwing pencils into the ceiling.

Brian: well that all the time we have for today, join us next time for another side splitting, sports intensive, somewhat information minute of thought by your close knit group of Superfriends.

Christy is seen already out the door in full jogging apparel. Mandy is seen circling the tuna sandwich from yesterday. Brian, Troy and Rohan are seen giving back slaps, high fives and full frontal man hugs for another successful radio show in the books.

Will Christy  fully committ to the show? Or will she satiate her desire for travel? Will Mandy ever make something besides tuna fish? Will Brian expand his listening audience.

Not here, but over there, the elderly Phillipino tribesmen are once again aroused to the mania that is the Superfiends!!
