    “The Exception”

    Send us Fan Mail EP.43: “THE EXCEPTION” (FEAT. CHRISTINE) What if being late one morning changed the rest of your life? On Episode 43 of Unfit For Radio with JAYKERS, we’re doing something a little different. For this conversation, we’re setting the jokes aside as longtime UFR guest CHRISTINE shares a deeply personal story about September 11, 2001, and the unexpected chain of events that kept her from being at the World Trade Center that morning. Twenty-five years ago, CHRISTINE was in New York for a corporate leadership summit and was scheduled to be at the World Trade Center. But when her alarm clock failed to go off, she woke up late and never made it there. What happened next changed her life forever. CHRISTINE takes us back to that morning and shares what it was like experiencing the chaos from just blocks away, feeling the impact of the attacks, being evacuated from her hotel, losing communication with her family, and wondering whether she would ever make it home to her husband and four-year-old son in Phoenix. She opens up about the years that followed, including survivor’s guilt, counseling, therapy, faith, unanswered questions, and learning to live with the reality that, no matter how much we plan, some things are simply beyond our control. CHRISTINE also shares another deeply personal story she has never talked about before: surviving gun violence while in college. Her roommate was shot, CHRISTINE was spared, and the gunman ultimately took his own life. This is more than a conversation about 9/11. It’s a story about life, timing, family, trauma, faith, purpose, perspective, and the seemingly small moments that can change everything. And because this is still Unfit For Radio, we couldn’t let CHRISTINE leave without bringing a little UFR personality back into the room. RAY closes out the conversation with two original limericks written especially for CHRISTINE. This is CHRISTINE’S story: She is “The Exception.” IN THIS EPISODE: • CHRISTINE’S firsthand experience surrounding September 11, 2001 • How a broken alarm clock changed the course of her life • Being just blocks away from the World Trade Center during the attacks • The fear and uncertainty of not knowing if she would make it home to her family • Survivor’s guilt, counseling, therapy, and the years of processing what happened • Faith, purpose, and learning to let go of what we cannot control • CHRISTINE shares a story she has never talked about before about surviving gun violence in college • The importance of asking for help and using available resources • Looking back 25 years later and wondering what we’ve learned from the past • RAY’S original limericks for CHRISTINE, bringing a little UFR humor back to the conversation THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING UFR Thanks to you, Unfit For Radio with JAYKERS continues to reach listeners around the world, now in 50+ countries, 180+ U.S. cities, and 6 continents.

    “Loose Screws”

    Send us Fan Mail EP.41: “Loose Screws” (FEAT. THE UFR FAM) What happens when you put JAYKERS, RAY, and STEPH in the same room and give them absolutely no reason to behave? Well… you get “Loose Screws.” Episode 41 brings the UFR family back together for another completely unscripted episode filled with stories, jokes, ridiculous conversations, friendly competition, and plenty of moments that probably sounded better in the studio than they do on paper. JAYKERS is joined by RAY and the return of one of the most requested members of the UFR family, STEPH. With all three together, there’s no shortage of opinions, unexpected reactions, and the kind of back-and-forth that has become a big part of the Unfit For Radio experience. The crew puts each other to the test with some of UFR’s favorite games, including Would You Rather, Two Truths and a Lie, and I Should’ve Known That. Some answers make sense. Some absolutely do not. And a few may leave you wondering. From the opening chicken-and-egg experiment joke to the final goodbye, Episode 41 is exactly what the title promises—a few loose screws, a lot of laughs, and the UFR family doing what they do best. No script. No perfect answers. No shortage of original nonsense. Just JAYKERS, RAY, STEPH, and another episode of Unfit For Radio. It’s Episode 41. Loose Screws. And sometimes, the best episodes are the ones where nobody has all the screws tightened. IN THIS EPISODE: • JAYKERS, RAY & STEPH reunite in the studio • RAY re-shares the original limerick he created for himself and JAYKERS, then debuts STEPH’s original limerick for the first time on air • STEPH shares fascinating details only a true fan would know about Wheel of Fortune with Vanna White and Ryan Seacrest • Would You Rather • Two Truths and a Lie • I Should’ve Known That — UFR style, with points • Friendly competition and questionable answers • UFR family chemistry and behind-the-scenes moments that made it to air • Another completely unscripted Unfit For Radio episode If you’re enjoying Unfit For Radio with JAYKERS, don’t forget to leave a rating and review on your favorite podcast platform.

    “Digital Souls”

    Send us Fan Mail EP.40: “Digital Souls” (FEAT. CHARLES) What happens when artificial intelligence, technology, mortality, and the future of humanity collide in one very Unfit For Radio conversation? In Episode 40, JAYKERS and RAY welcome CHARLES to the UFR universe for his first—but definitely not last—appearance on the show. The conversation starts with one of the biggest questions of the modern world: Where is artificial intelligence taking us? From AI and automation to the possibility of machine consciousness, the guys explore how rapidly advancing technology could change everyday life and whether humanity is prepared for what comes next. Could AI ever become conscious? What happens when technology becomes capable of doing more than we ever imagined? And in an increasingly digital world, what does it actually mean to stay human? CHARLES opens up about his experiences volunteering with the fire department and working around the deceased at the county morgue. His experiences with death and mortality lead to a deeper conversation about life, family, relationships, perspective, and legacy and how being around death can completely change the way you look at living. With plenty of unscripted comedy, unexpected questions, personal stories, and questionable decisions along the way, “Digital Souls” explores some surprisingly serious ideas without ever taking itself too seriously. It’s Episode 40. Digital Souls. And after this one, you might never look at technology or humanity the same way again.

RAY brings his own style to the microphone with “RAY Facts,” stories about dumb criminals, and a personal story time that takes a few unexpected turns. RAY also shares stories about staying in a haunted hotel room and taking random vacation trips to graveyards with his wife—because apparently, that’s how RAY relaxes. From a ridiculous cold open involving JAYKERS’ former bank job to RAY officially taking over the show, “Certified Questionable” delivers the unpredictable, off-the-wall humor and unscripted conversations that make Unfit For Radio what it is.

    “That Escalated Quickly”

    Send us Fan Mail EP.38: “That Escalated Quickly” (FEAT. REG & CHRISTINE) Some conversations go exactly as planned. This wasn’t one of them. In Episode 38 of Unfit For Radio with JAYKERS, fan-favorite guests REG (Reggie Holmes) of RBernard Music and CHRISTINE return for one of the most honest and unexpected conversations of Season 3. After six months of staying quiet, JAYKERS opens up about a personal experience involving church hurt, leadership, and faith, sharing the lessons he learned along the way. What starts with laughter and catching up quickly turns into a thoughtful discussion about church culture, ministry, worship, production, burnout, and serving in the local church. Together, JAYKERS, REG, and CHRISTINE draw from decades of ministry experience to share personal stories, different perspectives, and practical insights. They also discuss topics such as NDAs in churches, volunteer vs. paid ministry roles, and the challenges of balancing church growth with caring for people. THIS EPISODE IS NOT AN ATTACK ON CHRISTIANITY OR THE CHURCH. It is an honest conversation between three CHRISTIANS who care deeply about the local church and want to see it grow in grace, humility, and authenticity, with a stronger focus on JESUS. And because this is still Unfit For Radio, expect plenty of laughs, unexpected tangents, friendly debate, storytelling, and the authentic chemistry that makes UFR unique.
