The Dave, Emily, and Chainsaw Show, formerly The Dave, Shelly, and Chainsaw Show (DSC), and known simply as Dave, Emily and Chainsaw, is a long-running morning radio show in the San Diego, California area. Broadcast on weekday mornings on San Diego's famous KGB-FM, the show is named for its three main hosts, Denver Dave Rickards; Emily Maguire; and Cookie "Chainsaw" Randolph, known as the "Dean of American Sportscasters". The show originated in 1990 with Shelly Dunn as a member of the trio; she retired from broadcasting in July 2018 and was replaced by Maguire, the show's then-producer.
The format of the show combines humor, parodies, news and skits. The show's bawdy humor and irreverent attitude, described as "raucous and often hilarious", has sometimes sparked controversy. That said, the show is marketed as "San Diego's most dependably hilarious morning radio show".
In addition to the radio programming, the show has produced three comedic films starring Denver Dave, Shelly, and Chainshaw. The group has also released 18 annual "Best of" CDs featuring the show's regular cast members. The proceeds from the CDs and DVDs, usually released around Christmas, support the show's charity fund that assists San Diego residents in need.
