Matt & Jayce
Play first episode
Matt and Jayce are two ex college radio guys who became ex professional radio guys who are now professionally guys in other professions. Tune in to see if you get Matt & Jayce, Prufrock & Jayce "the Ace", The Doctors of Love or maybe you'll just get two guys yelling at people to get off their lawn. Whichever pair shows up you'll get two guys talking about things they want to talk about, in the way they want to talk about them because there is no pesky Program Director to tell them they're doing it wrong.
