Engineer Chris and Engineeress Michelle

I haven't been paying attention, but is there a regular schedule for which days these two work? Or is it random?

And why does Anderson hate Michelle so much? Whenever she chimes in, Anderson will drop DAG's "Shut! Up!" or a yawn or something like that.

No idea, but I always like hearing Engineeress Michelle laughing in the background. Deep down, I'm an Engineer Chris man. It's hard to argue with his expressive radio personality.

"And why does Anderson hate Michelle so much? Whenever she chimes in, Anderson will drop DAG's "Shut! Up!" or a yawn or something like that."

Probably because Anderson doesn't like how Michelle will sometimes just pipe in with a comment or observation, much like the traffic gal on your average morning zoo show that Adam makes fun.

"829 29 after 8 gonna check traffic, trouble in the middle east...."

I'm not much of an Engineeress Michelle fan either,

Michelle rules. I think Anderson is insecure.

I think the "Engineer" job is supposed to carry an "only speak when spoken to" general mentality, and Engineeress Michelle pipes up a bit too often for Anderson's taste.

I'm a Chris fan, but I do enjoy Michelle's laughter.

It varries but generally: Engineer Chris does Sunday-Tuesday shows and Engineeress Michelle does Wednesday-Thursday shows.

And personally I think Engineer Chris is better radio. He can always mess up easiest thing. Listening to him makes me *cringe*, but I love him.

All good points on why Anderson seems like he is harder on Michelle. I’ve got to say, I have mixed feelings on her chiming in too. I don’t know, it just seems like such naked ambition on her part. And it rankles me because I think that they are not supposed to talk like that either. May just be inappropriate social skills on her part too.

But, think of this, Chris wants to be a DJ. I would guess that is why Michelle is there too. Who have we heard more of? Who now has more “experience”? So, if it is naked ambition on her part, it’s at least smart.

If she posts a naked picture of herself on the LLC, I’ll take it all back and be totally on her side though.

Remember when Anderson freaked out on Chris for playing Squeeze? hahahahaha

"That is unacceptable. I am the Engineer for this show. Turn that off now."

That really happened? How funny. Yeah, that is true, if Adam hadn't thrown such a hissy about going to a new studio, there wouldn't even BE a Chris or Michelle to piss in his territory.

I like all the engineers, but I'm more partial to Chris than Michelle.

Anderson is the best of them though.

I still miss engineer Mike of Drew Boogie fame. He's big time now with Lykis though.

Why are there so many engineers? I've always wondered...

Masteel kinda explained it, although i guess it was vague.

—Masteel

To expand on that, Adam was constantly bitching about what a crappy studio Westwood one had. So they moved to the KROQ studio, but the equipment and such was still set up at the old studio. To keep things together, they had to hire new engineers.

I hate that Michelle shit, but I also am a fan of Chris, he rocks, cause when he talks he sounds so shy and like he doesn't even want to be on the radio.

C'mon, Engineeress Michelle fans, break it down! You need to be heard.

Chris = Junior College for Life
Michelle = mobile DJ bidness and sports radio junkie

Does there have to be a choice? I enjoy them both in their own ways.

And Anderson 'drops' on Chris ("Huh?") just as much as he does on Michelle ("You're a lesbian"), it doesn't seem like he has anything against her.

A perfect example of why Engineeress Michelle is lame can be heard on the 03/24/05 show right at 12:43 where she pipes in. To get the whole scope of the conversation start listening right about 11:55, she beautifully proves my point about being a 3rd wheel

You can see pics of a lot of the guests here when it's up, and there are other assorted pics here. I don't think we have a pic of Chris or Michelle, unless you count the one with Chris' head in the background. That pic can be found in this thread.

Chris is friggin' hilarious, except not on purpose. Last week when Adam was trying to rehearse the "Vicar of Christ" comments with him, and he fell on his face. Again, funny only because he seems completely out to lunch. JC'ers UNITE!
