The Human Zoo (radio)

The program adopted a 'phone-in' format where callers were not pre-screened and could freely discuss topics within broadcasting regulations.

To ensure compliance, a dump button was utilized, a common method in radio to prevent the broadcast of offensive or illegal content. The station's output was delayed slightly, enabling the station to silence any unwanted remarks from callers before they aired. The Human Zoo welcomed a diverse range of callers, some of whom contributed short performances, played prepared audio pieces, or simply shared catchphrases.

Boyd was dismissed from Talksport, the radio station the program was hosted on, in March 2002 after failing to use the profanity delay to "dump" a caller's remarks that the British Royal Family should be shot.^[1][2]
