One guy was able to pull himself together when "on the air" but otherwise began hallucinating; saw flames when he opened his desk drawer, thought a fellow DJ's sports coat was crawling with maggots.I'm just curious on what Jayden hopes to accomplish with those extra 4-5 hours during the day when he would normally be sleeping.

Same BS, different day and different crop of newbs with all the right answers".Is this any different than the Sports world debating who will win the Super Bowl or World Cup?

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies that spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.
