Title: Can People Help Find Beginning Of The Show GOMPs For Me?
Post by: Tom Scharpling on May 27, 2008, 05:59:38 PM
Hello!

If you are an enterprising sort and you would like to hear specific GOMPs played during the start of the show, please post them here as mp3s so I can play them.

Thank you so much.

Tom.

Here is the payola GOMP I love so much.  Is there a min/max length you'd like these to be?  This one is only like 10 23 seconds.

One can use Wiretap Pro to record an mp3 off of the archive.

Thanks for the tip, Dorvid.  I will definitely be using that in the future.  But what I meant was actually posting mp3 files on the boards rather than links to them.  Maybe I just misread what Tom wrote.

I've got no concept of how to make an MP3 of this, but it's not for lack of trying. Given that, perhaps I should keep it to myself, but here is the call:

August 17, 2004 - 1:11:27 (http://www.wfmu.org/listen.ram?show=12241&archive=15045&starttime=1:11:27)

The ol' bait and switch GOMP at it's best! You know it's coming from the moment the caller says 'now look here boy'. The call is pretty long so I don't know if the whole thing would work, but it could definitely afford to be edited down. Hope this helps!

Amazing. I'd forgotten about this one.

I'll try to gather some GOMPs and post them here later in the week. Do you just want older GOMPs, or do you want ones from the current year as well? I wasn't sure since calls from this year could be potential award nominees for next year (assuming there's another awards show).

Tom GOMPs Hova while trying to negotiate the purchase of some shelves: http://www.sendspace.com/file/xghs2m

Listening to the show from the beginning again, I came across one that has cracked me up to no end and might be one of my favorite moments now. A very young caller (I think it might even be Petey??) calls up asking why Tom won't play Led Zeppelin. He says he is from New York City (on 6th Avenue) but decides to use the voice of a grizzled prospector. Tom nearly loses it on a couple of occasions, but pulls off a MASTERFUL gomp at the end.

Here's a good one from February 18, 2003. Tom gets called by a woman who says she's on a road trip with her dog and her girlfriends. She says he should play some music, Tom says he hopes the dog mauls all of them. I clipped a bit of it, tried to make it end with a bang so it would sound better at the top of the show.

Two words: Bilingual Gomp!

This is from 2003 when Petey tried to show off some Spanish on the air, leading Tom to hold Petey on the line as long as possible until he could find out how to say "get off my phone" in Spanish. Available in both the full version (http://dc14.4shared.com/download/52006723/59ee759/Tom_Gomps_Petey_In_Another_Language.mp3) and the condensed version (http://dc14.4shared.com/download/52006707/30c541c2/Tom_Gomps_Petey_In_Another_Language__condensed_.mp3) that won't be too long to slow down the pace.

Here's a good one from the 8/12/03 show. A little background since the entire call was too long to use: A very boring young man calls from a Home Depot and talks aimlessly about politics for awhile, prompting Tom to call him Dave Emory Jr. Tom asks him to put a Home Depot employee on the line, but Tom soon realizes something's not quite right with the heavily-accented man who comes on the line and a GOMP ensues.

I always thought a GOMPusa.com would be a good website to compile the whole show's worth of GOMP's, but that website is taken by something...else.

from 6-27-2006.

The kind of call where someone thinks he's not on the air, and Tom pretends to be various call screeners.

The full version is funny, but it mentions the M word.

The short version I like better, because out of context the way Tom talks to the caller is pretty great.

I'm trying to remember to isolate good GOMPs as I come across them.  Good, solid bread and butter GOMPs, not necessarily the super extreme ones.

Here are two more, from 9/19/2006:

Superhero costume GOMP, and John Starks GOMP.

This one's from the 3/25/08 show, where Steve from North Hollywood, after being GOMP'd earlier in the show, exhibits tremendous courage by calling back to participate in the "I love you, but..." topic. Things do not go well.

http://www.sendspace.com/file/80xr3n

BTW, I'm not posting this to embarrass Steve or make him feel bad - I'm a fan of his calls and I was very glad to hear him call again last week. I just think it's a good GOMP.

Sorry to hog this thread, but I'm trying to post these as I run across them. This is an epic Captain Jack GOMP that comes at the end of the bonanza of bad callers that is the 6/3/03 show. Captain Jack tries to come on friendly, but Tom's not having it and the Captain Jack facade peels away, revealing the ugly horror beneath. The call ends with Tom GOMPing him at the top of his lungs before dissolving into a blubbering heap.

A few good ones. This one was from this real creep calling after the Iraq war was starting to unravel talking about how "you gotta" stand behind the war now that it has begun. Tom tries to talk with the guy for awhile, but eventually can't take it anymore and GOMPs him, so frustrated he's screaming (boy, can I relate to that). But the fun part comes after, when Tom puts the next call on the air without a word, leaving the guy frustrated in perhaps one of the most pathetic GOMPs ever:
http://dc14.4shared.com/download/52006729/e54b0e47/Double_Gomp_of_Ya_Gotta.mp3

And what Tom called "the most unfair GOMP ever" (in 2003), where he gomps someone for saying he'd like to see someone stab Ashton Kutcher after asking how funny it would be if Ashton Kutcher got stabbed.

Two awesome ones.

First one of this freak who calls because he is impersonating "Tom from 91.1" to get notches in the chart over his bed. (http://dc14.4shared.com/download/59846730/9e58f7f5/Tom_Gomps_A_Deceitful_Pervert__short_.mp3)
Second one (a personal favorite) where Tom GOMPs this guy trying to do a lame bit about Swiss cheese and ends by doing a brief Jerry Seinfeld impression. (http://dc14.4shared.com/download/59846729/fe9f7e10/Tom_Gomps_Jerry_Seinfeld_Wannabe.mp3)

This might be more suitable for airplay on or near Election Night, since this is from Election Night 2004. This is when Tom, dejected by his country, just randomly makes the claim that The Flintstones came before The Honeymooners to create needless chaos. One of the show's perfect little moments, because it somehow encapsulates all the frustration and futility so many of us felt. This was the first caller to take Tom's bait, and he was absolutely perfect. Tom banishes him to South Dakota.
http://dc14.4shared.com/download/61705932/d1cb49ac/Tom_Gomps_A_FactChecker.mp3

Right after Tom banned Tommert, he called back in with a stupid song asking for forgiveness. This is about 10 seconds long and isn't a GOMP, but it's still funny.

This is kind of an unusual one - Petey GOMPs a caller (with encouragement from Tom) during his interview of Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro on the 6/18/02 show. The caller's reaction definitely answers the question "Can you hear it when you're GOMPed?"

It just shows you what a mutant he truly is. This is during a marathon for a show/station he clearly enjoys and he can't force himself to commit to help Tom. I'm not sure what scares Spike more in this clip, being judged by the other listeners or admitting that he cares enough about anything to go to Jersey for. "I don't do New Jersey."

These are from the April 15, 2008 show (also features Emma's first call):

1. Leon, who "confesses to stealing $20 when he covered for Matthew C.'s paper route while he was in the hospital for an appendix operation." (http://www.mediafire.com/?zya2jindmmw)

2. Tom delivers a "Nevermind! You're making me sick to my stomach!" to Mike, who defended the Final Boss gaming team, and then "compares Arenas to a gunner like 'Pistol' Pete Maravich, racking up big offensive stats but never winning anything." (http://www.mediafire.com/?migum2tniln)

3. Tom sends Connor from D.C. to rock school for not knowing what the Dischord House is. (http://www.mediafire.com/?yyydn1lm1jj)

One can use Wiretap Pro to record an mp3 off of the archive.

Does anybody have a suggestion for non-Mac users?


Sorry if this has been covered already but the search function seems to be broken.

Audacity is your one stop shop for clipping and recording live streams or MP3s. Its an open GL project (ie free) and is on EVERY operating system out there. OK maybe not Sun but who cares. Find the program, here (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/).

And speaking of good GOMPs for the beginning of the show, I REALLY wish Tom had said "Get Off My Phone" when Petey called on 8/7/01. It's great.

Tom: FMU, you're on the air!
Petey: Does the phone work?!
