From Left To Right: A Pig, "East Side" Dave McDonald
Yessir, Hog-Heads! It's David here saying, "Good Morning!" I'm ready to rock. Are you ready to rock? Then it's agreed...we're BOTH ready to rock. If you live in the rockin' states of NJ, NY, or PA, then rock with WRAT, 95.9 The RAT, baby. Let's ROCK.

Nothing says Rock 'N' Roll more than your friend, Sir "East Side" Dave, next to a WRAT garbage can...clearly about to either get sick...or about to get himself some dinner. Either way, this is Dave's best attempt at looking like a Gun 'N' Roses' Appetite For Destruction photographic out-take. Anyway, enjoy the pickles out of Carl & Dave this morning on WRAT, 95.9 The RAT. Adios!

Was it me or were several, prominent characters killed on the Game Of Thrones season finale last night OFF-camera? In other words, we didn't actually get to see these people get murdered? Or was my A.D.D. kicking in, combined with nearly lethal amounts of Sour Patch Kids, and this could have distracted me? This would explain why, eight minutes into the episode, I started thinking about rescuing Khaleesi with that big, dopey, fairy-dog from The NeverEnding Story. Anyway, enjoy Carl & Dave and the Morning Rat Race on WRAT, 95.9 The Rat. We start at 6 AM (EST). That is all.

It has been eerily pointed out by many on my Social Media (follow me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at EastSideDave) that on this past, incredible episode of the Davey Mac Sports Program, we insanely predicted that LeBron's head would be injured, and even more amazingly, that we called that his...man parts...would be exposed on national television. BOTH excquisite prognostications came true. This is why the Davey Mac Sports Program is quite simply the Greatest Sports Show Of All Time. Listen to it NOW in the DMSP Player section (click that orange link, friendy) and subscribe on iTunes! Have a good weekend!

The weekend is in full swing....and the dreaded, space pirate, Lord Daveuth, and his insidious band of galactic pirates (from Star Wars: The Force Awakens) are ready to drink a couple of brews and get nuts! We'll probably get so tanked up at some point we'll engage in a Jawa-throwing contest at the Cantina! Have a good one!

Thank Goblins It's Friday, dogsie. I've bought my tickets to Jurassic World and am ready to annihilate the dinosaur piss out of it. I'm gonna turn myself into an Indominus Rex via specially-made brownies and starting eating people who stare at me funny. Have a great weekend, dogsies! And if you're in the New Jersey/New York/Pennsylvania area, be sure to be listening to Carl & Dave (and Gotts) this morning and then tune in for great rock and bleeping roll all weekend long on Jersey's legendary radio station - WRAT, 95.9 The Rat!! Peace!!

In honor of great, late, wrestling legend Dusty Rhodes' passing, we've decided to show the world-famous East Side Dave Vs. The Midnight Rider bash, aka the "Greatest Match Of All Time". Enjoy.
- East Side Dave
Our deepest condolences go out to two of our favorites, excellent actor Christopher Lee (who played the parts of Count Dooku in the Star Wars Prequel as well as Saruman in The Lord Of The Rings trilogy) and wrestling legend Dusty Rhodes (the original Midnight Rider) who both died recently at the ages of 93 and 69 respectively. RIP, brothers! Somewhere in the highest of mountains, at the tippy top of the most sparkling of rainbows, you two are Force-lightning and body-slamming the Holy Heckfire out of some Jobber-Jedi. God speed!

East Side Dave = Crazy.
The Dave Man is on two-and-a-half hours sleep. The Dave Man is nuts this morning, crushing it with Carl and Gotts on WRAT, 95.9 The Rat. The Dave Man is gonna rock out and start hallucinating due to the sleep deprivation. The Dave Man is gonna begin to eat his own blisters out of hunger and insanity. The Dave Man is here to ROCK this morning.

Not for nothing, but maybe the Empire should have made Darth Vader's specially-made TIE Fighter ship, technically known as the TIE Advanced X1, the standard TIE Fighter for all Imperial pilots. Clearly it was a faster, superior ship. Just make the X1 the normal TIE ship and then create a super-duper X2 expressly for Vader if he needs to feel special. This has been a Star Wars Editorial from Master East Side Dave. May the Force be with you.
I forgot that when you go to the batting cages and dominate the Holy Heck out of the 85 MPH cage (for video proof, look at Dave's Instagram here), you need to wear batting gloves. I went old school, Yogi Berra-style into the cage and now I have blisters on my hand that look like gosh darn war wounds. I've put the alcohol on them and whatnot, but they still hurt like hot piss. In any event, pain is temporary. Instagram glory is forever. Check out Carl & Dave; weekdays on Jersey's legendary WRAT, 95.9 The Rat. SIX AM. Batter's up!

Listen, I know we live in the 21st century and all...and we abbreviate the piss out of things. But I've seen this horrible trend on ESPN and other supposed "sources for sports" where they are using the word "GOAT" to describe someone who is great at their particular sport. Look at what Kobe Bryant tweeted:
Just stop it already. When I see something on "SportsCenter" that says LEBRON IS THE GOAT, I immediately think he blew a lay-up or something at the end of the game which caused the Cavs to LOSE. Now, apparently, it means something GOOD. Listen, we can't just turn around and start changing the rules!!! "GOAT" is BAD when it comes to sports!!
...Thanks for letting me rant, next week I'll be taking on the topics of "Why Kids Make Too Much Noise" and "I Don't Understand How DVR's Work". Good day.

Imagine if there were two East Side Dave's? Perhaps a mad scientist could clone me and we can make this happen. If there were, in fact, double the Dave's, I'd use one to dominate on the radio and use the other to work at a store. Maybe a sneaker store. This way, I could get 20% off on sneakers. Enjoy Carl & Dave (and maybe another Dave) weekdays on Jersey's legendary WRAT, 95.9 The Rat. Weekdays at SIX AM (EST). Let's do's it!!

Not only do we congratulate American Pharoah for winning the Horse-Racing Triple Crown, but Davey Mac and America's Greatest Rock 'N' Roll Band - The Cuertos - combined efforts to destroy Asbury Park, New Jersey. The sold-out crowd of 185,000 packed it in to see The Cuertos kill it with their musical brilliance. For exquisite, video examples of The Cuertos' legendary performances in the past - visit TheCuertos.tumblr.com!! Adios!

Let's have fun. Let's pet animals. Let's touch strangers' ears. Let's go pantsless on the beach. Let's spy on our neighbors. Let's fix our grandma's porch steps. Let's be on the look-out for alien life. Let's dominate.
