Our interview with Janet Jackson made some of our listeners upset. Some of them said it was disrespectful and even called us unprofessional! We didn't intentionally do or say anything to upset her, but if it may have came off that way. You be the judge...
Listen to the interview here
What do you think, were we at all disrespectful? Send your thoughts on the interview to wakeupcall@endonline.com.

I’m sorry, but I agree. You were very RUDE to her. It doesn’t matter if you are not interviewers or that she was ill. You were mean and laughed at her several times during & especially after. She said “Your crazy” ONE TIME to Jason when he commented on her making a song for him & his wife having sex.
Not only was the interview horrible, the fact that you guys are so defensive and make excuses for your behavior and Gavin is still SO RUDE about it is really bad.
When I was listening to the interview this morning, I got angry and almost DID SWITCH RADIO STATIONS PERMENANTLY because you guys were SO WRONG.
You need to listen to the interview again, listen to yourselves. I’m not even a Janet Jackson fan & she didn’t deserve your absolute disrespect and rude behavior. If I was her, I would re-think doing interviews period after today.

I just heard you this morning discussing the interview, that I apparently missed. I came right home and listened to it. I think that you guys, were in no way disrespectful and that she is the worst interviewee ever. She gave you nothing to work with and is a complete idiot! Who, thinks that Africa is a country. I thought you guys were just having some fun, and she is the crazy one, that couldn't even pick up on the witty banter. She didn't even like your comment about starting a band and opening for her, an obvious joke. Pretty much the only thing she said was "I have sex," and "You guys are crazy." Im so glad that the pop stars of today are still proving to be as smart as their talent.

Hey guys, I listened to the interview, and re-listened to it, and I didn't find anything in it that was disrespectful...You stated a point about other superstars who have gotten older and come back with another album that wasn't so much liked because "people" felt they were too "old" to be talking about sex or things as such, and Janet came back with a quick response to how she felt. If anything I feel the interview had to have been awkward for you guys because of the way she conducted herself during it.
So no worries, you did what you did what what you had...Great job!!!!

I was listening to you guys on the radio this morning and you guys were talking about the interview and I had no idea what was going on. I listened to what everyone was saying and after hearing the interview myself, I think that people were took it way to far.. I would have to say that the interview wasn't completely professional but other than that it was not disrespectful. Plus if you think about it she has probably experienced far worse when it comes to interviews. I still think you are guys are number one!!
