WSDI Radio is the brainchild of a long time radio and television entrepreneur.  This (weird) guy set out to break the rules, in an industry that has standardized itself on big-name hosts, minute reality celebrities and horrible 40 song playlists. But he knew he had to follow his dream to be heard or seen by people who have become bored by formulaic radio and mindless DJ's.  (Wow, we used a big word or two.) So he decided to go it alone, with waffle fries in hand. He decided to carry his vision forward and to form a small satellite station that featured talk that listeners could easily relate to and enjoy, while working or surfing the Web at home, at work or via smart phone.

WSDI radio continues to grow and is heard daily around the world.  From New Zealand to both Canadian coasts.  WSDI has expanded its worldwide lineup, offering the listeners even more reasons to come back for more. The station looks and helps undiscovered talent. All of our hosts are encouraged to produce their own material and say whatever they want, however they want. Irreverent. Entertaining. Cool with Music. That is the vision. And its the only way he doesn't really actually have to work.  Is "chair" dancing work?

The Alcopop Fumble Lyrics

VERSE 1:
Knock, Knock, who's there?
A young girl, pretty and fair.
She's only from next door,
But common as a whore!

She invites me to come and play,
But I'm not sure what to say.
I think about it once or twice,
Then ask her what's her price!

CHORUS 1:
Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
One drink or two
We'll start to coo!

Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Three drinks or four
We'll roll on the floor!

VERSE 2:
If I buy her an alcopop
She'll let me fumble in her top!
For another two or more
We'll tumble on the floor!

We traipse around the pubs
Then off we go, to the clubs
We stay all night and get thrown out
With mischief all about.

CHORUS 2:
Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Five drinks or six
We'll start to mix!

Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Seven drinks or eight
We'll seal our fate!

REPRISE:
Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Nice drinks or ten
We'll be wrecked again!
