'''Furpile Radio''' is an internet-based radio show which features music, comedy, trivia, and, occasionally, studio guests. It is the creation and production of [[Dark Racoon]] and [[Ollie Pup]].

==History==

The concept of Furpile started in 2005, it's original plan was for it to be a magazine, created by Dark Racoon and Ollie Pup. What made it special was that it was going to be a magazine made by furs all over the UK, it was going to contain art work, stories and anything else of interest all piled into one furry magazine, hence the name, FurPile Magazine.

But once all the pages for the first issue were ready to be printed, the computer holding it all died and all the infomation was erased with it. Feeling crushed by this, Dark Racoon and Ollie Pup gave up on the project.

In 2006, FurPile was revived in the form of a radio show, with the help of Tryst, the first episode "Dave: The Pilot Episode" was recorded in Guildford, it was uploaded onto the internet, but with little to no hype surrounding it, a second episode was recorded, but the recording lost and never found.

After that the FurPile Crew disbanded and went their seperate ways, but then in 2007, DarkRacoon and Ollie Pup got back together to bring FurPile Radio back, as a low quality podcast recorded in the "Ollie Pit" (Ollie's bedroom on his computer). As the episodes progressed, so did the sound quality, each episode getting better and better. They are currently on their 22nd episode as of 20th March 2007 and episode 23 is going to have new microphones and a new recording program and promises to sound much better than previous episodes.

Dark Racoon is now also known as Snack Meerkat.

==Production==
The show hails from [[Wikipedia:Swindon|Swindon]] in the U.K., and is often recorded on the weekends, sometimes helped along by consumption of alchohol, other mental relaxants and food.

The show used to be hosted by [[Simbapaws]] at http://www.simbaspaws.org/snack/, where uncleaned and unprocessed versions of the show are still kept. After noise reduction, equilisation, and compression, the shows end up on the main website http://www.furpileradio.net

Furpile Radio has its own forum on the website, which allows users to post their comments for the show's hosts and listeners.

2008 saw the introduction of the back episodes to the internet.

== Transmission ==

Normally recorded on Saturday for release Sunday or soon afterwards.

==Content==

The show is done in a structured format, starting off with the disclaimer and then a short opening song (or collection of bizarre sounds), then the first segment followed by a song, then another segment, then another song, continuing until the show is finished, usually ending with a song, sometimes with bonus material after the last song.

The show is comprised of several segments, some are every week and others are as and when they happen.

The most commen segment that has been on every episode without fail is the "News" segment, introduced with the "news theme" played in with a different instrument each week, the instruments have been as varied as guitar to a bag of sweets to a spoon against a glass. The theme is a collection of da's followed by the word "news".

Another segment is "DarkRacoon's Interesting Fact" which is simply what it says, Dark Racoon gives the listeners a fact, usually a completely useless fact, sometimes it's not even a fact at all.

After the news there is more than often the "Sad News", a segment where the hosts mention the death of a famous person over the week, tell the listeners a little bit about that person, how they died and how they were, on more than one occasion, they have never heard of the person in question.

"Reading The E-Mails" is a laughable segment that occasionally pops up in the show, in which DarkRacoon checks his e-mail inbox, more than often, to find he has no new e-mails, when there is an e-mail, it is to great shock and the e-mail is then read out on the show, whether it be fan mail, or just spam.

"Assasination of The Sun/Tesco" is a fairly new segment, DarkRacoon and Ollie Pup dislike newspapers, but have chosen "The Sun" specifically and find one thing that the newspaper has done wrong in the week and talk about that, when The Sun has done nothing wrong, they 'assasinate' Tesco instead, which employs both Dark Racoon and Ollie Pup.

"Smash S**t Up!" is the newest segment where the hosts find something they dislike and then smash it to peices on air.

When the missing girl "Madaleine McCann" was mentioned in every single shows news story, guest host Kyotas introduced a rule called "No MIDI no Maddie", as he always requests that the Legend of Zelda soundtrack be played as backround music, but the only files they have on computer for it are MIDI files, DarkRacoon banned MIDI files from being played on the show, so Kyotas said, as long as there is no MIDI files, there will be no mention of Madaleine. DarkRacoon and Ollie Pup often break this rule when Kyotas is not on the show and mention Madaleine anyway.

Stump is a stump of wood, DarkRacoon and Ollie Pup found him on a trip to Cardiff, he is a wise old stump who invented such things as the steam engine and light bulb and also wrote several songs which he does not get credited for, he is literally a peice of wood with a face and always gives words of wisdom on the show.

Music on the show is varied, they mostly play rock music, but have also had hip-hop, rap, pop, dance, classical, heavy metal and just plain
weird. The backround music is comprised of ambiant tracks from the likes of The Orb and Future Sound of London or remixes from video games.
