In the last Interlude of this album, DJ Crash Crash is taking calls from normal people. As it turns out, only misinformed humans call and this highlights the various forms of racism.
Caller 1 is an open (and potentially violent) racist. She believes that droids don’t and shouldn’t even be considere...
DJ Crash Crash: Hello! This is DJ Crash Crash and you are on the air here at WDRD. We are here once again talking about our favorite fugitive, Cindi Mayweather, Electric Lady No. 1. Caller, you are on the air.
[Call #1]
Caller #1: Hello, my name is Peggy Lakeshore, and I live in Neon Valley. I just wanna say I'm disappointed.
DJ Crash Crash: You're disappointed?
Caller #1: Disgusted, actually.
DJ Crash Crash: Really?
Caller #1: Yeah, this whole thing.
DJ Crash Crash: Really?
Caller #1: I mean, they should just do whatever they do to people like that.
DJ Crash Crash: "People like that"—what does that mean?
Caller #1: I mean she's not even a person—she's a droid just like all of you.
DJ Crash Crash: She's not a person. Well, you're right, she's not a person—she is a droid. She is an android Alpha Platinum 9000, and she is jammin'.
[Call #2]
DJ Crash Crash: Next caller, you are on the air.
Caller #2: I wanna say, power up, power up.
DJ Crash Crash: Power up. Mhm, power up to you.
Caller #2: Okay. I'm a student at Time University, okay, and my name is Josh. I've been following you and Cybersoul and the whole Droid Wonderground for the while now. And I just wanna know if you know, if you guys in android community truly believe that Cindi Mayweather, you know, is not just like Electric Lady No. 1 and all but like also the ArchAndroid? Because according to the book of Zo—
DJ Crash Crash: Oh no, no, no, not on my show!
[Call #3]
DJ Crash Crash: Next caller, you're on the air.
Caller #3: Robot love is queer!
DJ Crash Crash: What, what, what?
Caller #3: Robot love is queer!
DJ Crash Crash: Quee— What? Ohh, anything else?
Caller #3: That's all.
DJ Crash Crash: Uh-uh, I see. What I wanna know is how you would know it's queer... if you haven't tried it. Ohhhhhh! Here we are on WDRD Metropolis 105.5. We still alive. Everybody say, beta!
