Welcome to Crazy

Recorded live on July 7th, 2020. Uploaded to Rumble on January 22nd, 2021. The featured guest this episode is Ron Prue.

After taking a one week break, the ladies Dani and Dina returned on July 13th, 2020 with special guest Natasha E Valencia, the owner of 4 The Love of Sweets.

This episode originally aired June 29th, 2020. Added to Rumble on January 20th, 2021.

Originally recorded and broadcast on Facebook Live on June 22nd, 2020. This episode features just the two ladies, Dani and Dina, with their stories and reactions. Good times!

An hour of fun and frivolity during a time of isolation and discouragement.

This show includes a guest appearance by Lauren Lipps. It was recorded and originally broadcast live on June 8th, 2020. A somewhat large number of videos have been uploaded to the channel today. Apologies for the dump of so much content at once. There's not always enough time in each day to upload a video, but today there was lots of time, so we're working ahead a couple of weeks.

Welcome To Crazy began as a Facebook group for the sharing of funny memes. Then came the videocast using Facebook Live. These are the videos yo now find on Rumble. During this episode (recorded June 1st, 2020) the Welcome To Crazy Facebook group reached a milestone as one-thousand people had joined the group. [And it's even larger now!]

All of these videos were originally broadcast on Facebook Live in the "Welcome to Crazy" Facebook group. This episode was recorded on May 18th, 2020 with Shannon Flannery of Frontline Meal Train joining as a guest.

This episode originally broadcast live on May 25th, 2020, with Heidi Fit as a guest. On occasion in these videos you might notice that Dani gives an episode number that does not match the episode number as provided in the video title. Sometimes Dani gets a little confused. :) The labels are correct. This is, indeed, the sixteenth "Welcome to Crazy" show.

This episode originally aired live on May 11th, 2020. With the ongoing shutdowns, the ladies do what they can to help local business people (like Jim Bryan of the Church of Satire Comedy Club), and add some laughs while they do it.

The show begins to get into the rhythm of featuring a weekly guest to help support local businesses who have been clobbered by restrictions and lockdowns in response to COVID-19.

Fifteen days to flatten the curve has progressed to a full stop, with no end in sight. How are the ladies handling it and what laughs can they share to help everyone get through it together?

What happens when a bunch of radio people get together for a videocast? Find out here. Marco is a longtime radio pro, who happens to be related to Dani. And of course, Dina and Dani work in the radio biz, too. It's a family affair. Family by blood, and family by profession.

Ah, the wonders of technology. Dani and Dina are in Frederick, Maryland, while Chris Papadopoulos joins in from Australia.

This special episode is a one of a kind experience. In the early days of the government mandated lockdowns there was a sense of novelty around participating in Zoom calls. So, Welcome to Crazy hosted it's first (and so far only) Zoom episode. Everyone had a good time, even with hackers breaking into the broadcast to utter a few inappropriate things. After that experience the ladies have been in no hurry to try the experiment again! :)

Life is crazy, and laughs help us all get through. Welcome to Crazy is all about sharing life together... the ups, the downs... always with a smile. Note: In some of the early episodes there is silence for the first minute or so. Then the habit became to open with a minute (or so) of music. You’re encouraged to skip ahead 70 seconds in all the videos, if you like.

Very early in the 2020 "Covid Experience" Dina joined the show (for the first time) from her home studio. Times were strange, but the laughter was (as always) uninterrupted.

Recorded June 10th, 2019. This second episode would be the final episode for nearly a year, as the show was dramatically retooled and then reintroduced in March of 2020. Ironic that the show name "Welcome to Crazy" was settled upon before 2020 even arrived. It was almost prophetic.

Recorded June 3rd, 2019. This pilot episode was shared live on social media, even before the program had a name! See how it all started, right here.

Since 2009 Dina Carole has been a fixture on the radio in the Washington DC and Frederick area. From 2009 to 2016 she was half of the morning show on WFRE. She then starred on WWEG, first in mornings, then in the mid-day. In 2020 she moved back to mornings at the star of the WAFY Dina Carole Show. And now Dani Gurrie joined her in the early morning... just as the coronavirus craziness was reaching new heights.

Coincidentally the official full launch of Welcome to Crazy coincided with the launch of the coronavirus madness. These videos were first (and exclusively) broadcast on Facebook Live. Now they're being posted to Rumble and provide a fascinating time capsule for our shared experience during the past year.

Coronavirus is Here. The Best of Frederick Awards. And Thoughts on Movies.

Welcome to Crazy has now produced approximately 50 episodes. Posting a few of them on Rumble began as an experiment, but looking back at our collective progression through the COVID madness is rather enlightening and entertaining. So, over the course of the coming weeks, all of the episodes will migrate over to Rumble. Enjoy!
