| The Mrs. Miller Contest |
In 1997, an American musical icon was taken from us at the age of 90. Though Mrs. Elva Miller now sings in the heavenly choir, her songs live on in cultural wastelands such as the airwaves of The Movies On-Air, along with the musical stylings of Leonard Nimoy and Mae West. There, listeners can sing along with "Downtown", "Yellow Submarine", "Up, Up and Away" and the immortal "Strangers in the Night". But now, thanks to Lizard3209, a devotee of all things Miller, you'll have your chance to interview the late Mrs. Miller, through the magic of an open-ended interview. And in the process, you'll receive both the acclaim on fellow listeners, and possibly win some TMOA swag. |

| The people have spoken! |
 Not a lot of them, but those who were interested in casting their vote have overwhelmingly voted against FlashChat - or they don't care as long as they have some kind of chat....
Anyway, the X7 chat will become the new official TMOA chat, and hopefully everyone will be happy.
If not, I don't want to hear it.

| TMOA Official Chat Poll |
Because some people have had trouble using the Flashchat that we've been running over at the XTM, we've decided to explore some other options.
One of the better one we've come across is X7 Chat - it doesn't use Flash, so it wouldn't add another process to overburdened machines, and it seems to be fairly full-featured, for both users and admins.
But it's you, the listener's chat (we're just the featured entertainment), you folks should decide which one you like better. So there's a poll at the lower right (visible only to registered people on the site) which gives you the choice of continuing to use Flashchat, switching to the X7 chat, or a neutral, all the same to me vote.
To check them out, either go here for the Flashchat (or whatever link you usually use if you're registered) or here for the X7 Chat. Unfortunately there's no way to transfer the registration info from Flashchat to X7, since the database user tables are encrypted, so you would have to register again for the X7 chat (easy enough - you don't even have to click a link in the email it sends) - or with X7 you can just type a username and login with no password to check it out (which is fine, unless next time somebody steals your username and pretends to be you).
We'll keep the poll open till the end of the week, then add up the votes, and decide which way we're gonna go.
Thanks.
Ken

| TMOA Birthday Song, Week III |
The votes for last week's contenders have been counted, and leading the pack was the Bollywood sounds of Manna Day followed by Tremblett's minimalistic take on the familiar song, and the always popular The Uncle Brothers. All three will be in the finals next week....
This week's selections are up, and we've got some very delightful choices for you - will it be Cheryl Melody with the "Happy Pretend Birthday", the droning rhythms of Freedy Johnston, the yodeling Europop of Huang Hexiang, or perhaps one of the TMO homeboys, Nuggetdie or Mollyrulez9999? It's up to you!
As always, the songs have been put here to both refresh your memories and make your toes tap - we've also included a zip file of all of them, so you can grab them all and have happy birthdays for years to come....
So vote now, and get your favorite into the finals on next week's Ken and Roger Show.
(note: We could only get 10 into the poll, so we removed the traditional sounds of Eddy Howard - but if you want to vote to Eddy, just PM me and I'll be glad to add him and his celestial choir to the total)

| TMOA Birthday Song, Week II |
The voting on the first batch of prospective TMOA birthday songs is complete - edging out the competition in this first group is Weird Al Yankovic, with Bingo a close second and theMonk/New Kids on the Block tied for third. Since we want to keep it at 9 semi-finalists plus the original Stepford Child (for the tradionalists) in the final week, we're making an executive decision and breaking the Monk/New Kids tie in favor of theMonk. Sorry New Kid's fans, but he's family.
And now week two is upon us - and what a wonderful selection of songs it is. From the disco sounds of Juke Box CD Special to the toe-tapping Bollywood sounds of Manna Dey, from the minimalism of our own Tremblett to the creepy country corn of The Uncle Brothers, there's something for everyone.
As always, you can go here if you heard the show and need to refresh your memory before voting, or if you missed the show but want to be in on the fun. (or you can just work your way through the downloads to the Birthday Song Contenders and listen to both weeks) You have until Monday, September 18th to make your selection for this round.

| The Birthday Song Poll |
 A poll has been added to the front page (on the left, below the show calendar) to allow you, our beloved listeners, to chose the special birthday song that will be played for the special birthday boy or girl on the Roger and Ken Show.
If you listened to the September 3rd show, you've already heard samples of the first round of contenders - if you didn't, or want to refresh your memory before voting, we've put up a special download category here for the entries and you'll be able to hear 30-50 second excerpts of this week's choices.
If you didn't catch the show, you might want to check out the download, later today, and hear the commentary on the songs with in-studio guests Mortalitis_Infinitas and birthday girl SailorKnightWing as well as comments from the chatroom.
For the next two weeks, we'll be presenting contenders for your listening pleasure or displeasure, as the case may be - on week 4, we will put the three weekly winners up against each other for a Final Birthday Showdown.
Remember, your vote counts! We're just as happy to continue with the vile Stepford Child rendition, but the listeners must have their say. So sing out, and may the best version win!

| The Official TMOA chat relocates.... |
....to the new XTM - the direct link is on the menu on the left, or here .
Remember, the chat is up all the time, though you probably won't find much of anyone there unless we've got a live show running - then you'll find lots of fellow listeners.
And remember - play nice!
