A series pf testimonial infomercials about doo wop, where biker dudes, Station Manager Ken, Terre T, all talk about how Medson got them into doo wop, how before Rama Lama Ding Dong, they used to hear Frankie Valli and descend into a 36 hour period of self loathing, but now they hear doo wop and they can’t help but say its “the dip d-dip d-dip dopeness.”
