Thanks to Steve Goldstein who found the ultimate radio testimonial spot on YouTube.
Of course, it begs the question whether this is how "real people" perceive the types of TV spots radio stations run. Or then again, you could just enjoy it for the ridiculous parody that it is.

Uhhh…there are probably some stations that would love to have people like this listening…with this sort of passion, it’s guaranteed ratings…isn’t it?
Ani DiFranco and the Best Mix of Music
I’d like to run this spot for my Mix station, unfortunately it’s a minute and thirteen seconds too long. But that’s the only thing stopping me, I assure you. There is nothing easier to spoof than a bad testimonial spot.
