Woodsy
« on: January 17, 2011, 08:16:01 PM »
Does anybody know anything about Woodsy?  From the Jan 22, 2002 show.

He doesn't sound like any of the other callers.  He had a whole song, The Woodsy Rap, and a whole elaborate back story, so there was some amount of production involved.  But he was only on once (that I know of) and he wasn't really mentioned after that.

The Woodsy Rap, not to be confused with Woodsy the Owl's rap about composting...

Do a forum search on Woodsy. You'll find some fervent appreciation for his talents.

Hah, did that.  I was curious to see if maybe there was anything else he did on the show.

This was also one of those that I recently stumbled upon in deep archive intake.

I guess the thing that strikes me about it most is that Woodsy literally sounds like a disembodied numbers station voice going into business for itself.

Is that from his monotone voice or the phone connection?

A little of both maybe? Probably more the monotone quality.

We--English-speakers--are getting really close to needing a new character to indicate Woodsy's half-syllable prefix in pronouncing "capicola".

There's also something to be said about the linguistic ingenuity of St'om.

He also appears as "CC Tennessee" on the first edition of the Patriot Zone.

I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!
