It was while working for The Apple that she took the name "Randi Rhodes," having previously used "Randi St. John."

On Fridays, Rhodes opens the show with the song Bounce Your Boobies by Rusty Warren.

I want to see her have to stand beside her husband at one of those mandatory 'I have sinned against you I'm a whore kind of a press conference.'

Journalistic standards

Main articles: Journalism and Journalism ethics and standards

Rhodes regularly asserts that she is not a journalist, but does analyze and comment on news reports with a journalistic eye. She proclaims herself to be a stickler for facts, and also claims to hold to many of the basic tenets of journalism ethics and standards such as corroboration, attribution and truthfulness. She offers citations to a wide array of newspapers, magazines, websites, government documents and radio/television reports. Rhodes takes on the roles of editorialist, satirist, comedian and news analyst. She is a leading activist for accountability and standards in the media, and has spoken at congressional hearings about creating a framework of national standards for what can be labelled news. She frequently tells her listeners to never trust anyone they hear on the radio, not even herself. She tells her listeners to do their own research after hearing supposed facts on the air.[citation needed] Journalism is a discipline of gathering, writing and reporting news, and broadly it includes the process of editing and presenting the news articles. ...

Comedic style

Rhodes uses humor in her discussion of news and events and makes frequent use of sound effects and sound bites including the voices of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. Some of her trademark sound effects are the cherry pop for first-time callers, the bong bubbles, the Howard Dean scream, and various bells and buzzers for indications of how she feels about any particular subject. Music relevant to her current topic of discussion is also featured as she goes to, and comes back from commercial breaks. Bounce Your Boobies, by famous cabaret singer Rusty Warren, is played following the show's opening on Fridays, with some commentary and sound bites during the song. Her show features comedians such as Barry Crimmins and Randy Credico, as well as comedy produced by the Air America staff. Sound effects or audio effects are artificially created or enhanced sounds, or sound processes used to emphasize artistic or other content of movies, video games, music, or other media. ...

Family

In 1994 Rhodes married Jim Robertson, an independent television producer and cameraman. They had been together for ten years prior to marrying, but the marriage didn't work out. Rhodes and Robertson divorced in April 2004 but have remained friends. Rhodes took the name Robertson when she married, but continued to use her professionally known name, Randi Rhodes, on the air.

Injury

On October 14, 2007, Rhodes sustained injuries that kept her off the air for several days. Air America host Jon Elliott claimed on his October 15 show that Rhodes had been the victim of a savage mugging. Elliott went on to speculate that this was perhaps not just a random event, and that it may have been politically motivated by conservative right wing factions.[12] Elliott based his comment on an email Rhodes sent to Air America stating that: "I wrote a two sentence e-mail to the company that I was mugged."[13] Left wing blogs and websites like DemocraticUnderground.com posted the information, speculating it was a deliberate attack by right wing extremists.[14] Rhodes stated on her radio show she was drinking in an Irish Pub right before the injury and does not remember what happened to her.[15] Jon Elliott is a syndicated American talk radio host. ...

Randy Rhoads Biography - hotshotdigital.com (3345 words)
Randy was in various other bands, such as "The Katzenjammer Kids" and "Mildred Pierce", playing parties in the Burbank area before he formed Quiet Riot in 1976 with longtime friend and bassist Kelly Garni.
Randy was whisked off to England shortly before Thanksgiving of 1979 where, at Ozzy's home in Wales, the two began to write the "Blizzard of Ozz" album and audition musicians to fill out the band.
(Randys solo on "Little Dolls" was actually a "scratch" solo and was not intended to be the solo for the finished song.) None of the band members could be present for the mixing of "Diary of a Madman", which only furthered their already mixed feelings of the album.
