Bush medicine was the talk on the station, and laughter ripped the airways... Tony and Desmond are so funny together. Now, for some reason, the conversation turned to chicken. Tony decided to discuss the health benefits of drinking bush tea and eating healthy. Tony spoke about understanding life, growing up with animals in their yard, and the most effective way to slaughter an animal. Tony talked about animals and chickens 'giving their lives' for human nourishment. Deso challenged him about how he knew the animals were willing to die to nourish humans. Tony said if it is not done the right way, the meat won't taste good. However, if the chicken 'gives its life freely' that is the sweetest meat you will ever eat!
Hmm, Deso, in his usual funny way, put on his finest chicken voice, 'cluck, cluck, cluck' and asked Tony what he would do next. He also asked how the chicken knew it was time to sacrifice his life for human nourishment. Tony replied, "You say a prayer, pat 'Wilfredo's' (the chicken's) head, and let him eat out of your hand." Then, with a sharp knife—not a dull knife—watap, the chicken head is gone!
Tony explained that he knew all his chickens, and they knew when to sacrifice themselves. Tony said, "People were sad in the yard and did not want to eat "Derek" (the chicken), who was slaughtered for Sunday lunch. Poor Derek, Tony sacrificed Derek for Sunday lunch! Total laughter erupted on the airwaves!

Calypso music is an essential part of Trinidad Carnival and adds to the excitement and fun of the celebration. However, calypso has been supplanted as the music of carnival and has taken a back seat, way to the back, as it relates to what people want to hear and party with during the festive carnival season. Having said that, Calypso music is not dead, and there are many talented artists choosing Calypso instead of Soca as their contribution to Trinidad and Tobago's carnival culture. Today, we feature some of the upcoming artists and songs that made the cut for Carnival 2023 in Trinidad and Tobago.
- Sets the tone for the celebration: Calypso music is upbeat and festive, and it sets the tone for the entire Carnival celebration.
