#the rest of his broadcast is other shit like take a hint and fan behavior to really drive home the point

I saw someone mention that because Alastor is a radio host, music is the one thing he stays up to date and modern on and I totally agree.

(Granted, most of what he plays on his OWN show and through his microphone/himself is stuff he listened to when he was alive, but he's not unaware of music that's been broadcast since then. He quite likes the jazz and swing that's been created since his death, and does play that on his station as well.)

When the mood strikes, he does take requests from callers into his station, and quite often allows suggestions that aren't his normal listening experience or what he typically plays.

(Alastor finds it entertaining the type of people who not only listen, but also call in to request songs and/or ask advice, and he is nothing if not an exceptional radio host who will keep listener engagement.)

All this is to say, is I had a funny thought but had to preface with my own headcanons to even make it make sense.

One night, Vox gets drunk and "anonymously" calls into Alastor's radio show and rants and rambles about how much they were good together and that he'll do whatever to get Alastor back!

(It's up to you to decide what their pre-enemies relationship even was, here. How delusional IS Vox being? Choose your own adventure. Regardless, Alastor has absolutely no interest in having Any kind of relationship with Vox.)

Alastor doesn't do much other than play the phone call over his station, make some quip about not being interested in desperate clout-chasers, and then plays "Feather" by Sabrina Carpenter.

(The rest of his broadcast is spent playing similar songs. It's the one time when his entire broadcast is modern music.)

It takes Velvette at least a week straight to scrub any digital recording of the phone call or even the entire broadcast off the internet.

(Angel has a copy. Occasionally, he re-uploads it to cause chaos and because, as a reward, Alastor lets him touch his ears for one full minute.)

Alastor never even needs to name drop Vox here, everyone just Knows.
