Elliot in the Morning
Elliot in the Morning is a popular morning-drive radio talk show heard on air in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area and Richmond, Virginia. The show airs from 5:30AM to 10AM Monday through Friday on WWDC-FM, also known as DC101, and is hosted by DJ Elliot Segal. It's also simulcast on WRXL-FM (102.1 the X) in Richmond. The format covers a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from in-person or telephone interviews with well-known celebrities, to gross-out stunts involving many of the colorful supporting cast.
It has been reported that Howard Stern has admitted to stealing bits from the Elliot in the Morning Radio Program. These allegations stem from a dispute between Elliot and Rich Vos, whose appearance on the show was praised by Opie and Anthony as being "Classic".
Radio Show Cast (The Class)
- Elliot Segal
- Lead personality, a native Canadian who was raised in Houston, Texas. He worked as a radio traffic man in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and as half of the "Morning Zoo" team on Z100 in New York. It was he who originally coined the term "Smell My Face." He's quite fond of toilet humor and gross-out jokes, though with limits. His trademark is a loud, maniacal laugh. A top target of the FCC, Segal has been fined and suspended several times for various offenses. Encourages the use of catchphrases such as "My balls in your throat!", " Peace and Chicken Grease!", "Smell My Face!", and most recently "Smell My Thumb!"
- Diane "Momma" Stupar
- Newscaster, co-host, and sometimes diva, she is often the voice of reason, but ever ready with a smart remark. She is married to husband Scott Stupar, and gave birth to their first child in 2005. Big fan of Oprah. Graduated from Radford College. The only woman on the show. Owns a horse.
- Bryan "Flounder" Schlossberg
- "Stupid Fat", sometimes funny, always stupid, host of Mash Ups, recently promoted to imaging director. Started as Elliot's stunt boy/intern. High school drop out, but proud recipient of a GED. Has a crush on WJLA ABC7 newscaster Alison Starling. Doesn't like to hear his real name said aloud on air. Bryan is incredibly stupid. He has absolutely no common sense at all.
- Tyler
- Associate producer, smart, graduated from Georgetown. In charge of sound effects and music played on the show, runs eitmonline.com. He has some musical talent in regards to singing. Elliot frequently makes jokes implying he is gay, which Tyler often ignores or sometimes plays along.
- Kyle
- Dim-witted intern, known for getting repeated speeding tickets, lack of forethought and excessive drinking. A successful graduate from George Mason University's "admit a brain-dead retard program." Very very stupid, absolutely no intelligence what-so-ever. Cannot prounce contracted words correctly; "Couldn't" pronounced as "coun-nent", "didn't" pronounced as "din-nent", "feel" pronounced as "fill", etc. This apparently is due to his pseudo "surfer boy" accent. He has a very shrill voice, and tends to "squawk" when upset. Consider's himself very religious, but lives by none of the tenets of the Bible. Thought by many listeners to be homo sexual.
- Craig "Big-Meat" Henderson
