Male: Didn’t they throw him out?

Quivers: Yeah, the drummer’s out.

Stern: Hey, Duff, you’re on the air.

Duff: Yo!

Stern: Duff, I thought they threw you out of the group.

Duff: No! What are you talking about? Steven.

Duff: Oh, Howard!  How are you doing, buddy?

Stern: Dude!

Duff: (?)

Stern: By the way, ladies and gentlemen, from the excellent, most excellent group in the world, Guns N’ Roses, this is Duff. You guys are the most excellent group, you know that.

Duff: You know what, you’re the most excellent dude.

Stern: Right!

Duff: (?) California language (?).

Stern: That’s alright. You guys sound like you’ve been working hard. I can tell just by the way you’re talking.

Quivers: Yeah, you need some sleep.

Stern: You need sleep (laughs).

Duff: Who? Me? No, no, no. I’m – actually, I’ve been sane because I’m doing a record of my own.

Stern: You make Joe Walsh sound well rested.

Duff: What?

Stern: You’re making Joe Walsh sound well rested.

Duff: (laughs).

Stern: No, I can tell you guys have been drinking a little bit, haven’t you?

Duff: No, not really.

Stern: Really?

Duff: No.

Quivers: How did you get like this?

Stern: Yeah, what did you do? (laughs)

Duff: Um... I have – Howard –

Stern: Yeah?

Duff: Don’t embarrass me on the radio. I have speech impediment, okay?

Stern: No, you don’t, Duff.

Duff: Huh?

Stern: You do not.

Duff: What? Remember when we met at – we did that thing at the (?) hotel?

Stern: Yeah, sure.

Duff: Aaah.

Stern: Hey, Duff...

Duff: You made fun of me then.

Stern: How do I know this is really Duff?

Duff: Okay, remember when we (?)

Stern: Yeah, but all the listeners know that.

Duff: Oh, okay... Let’s see... What...

Duff: Go for it.

Stern: Alright, are you ready?

Duff: Yeah?

Stern: This is Guns N’ Roses, doing Live and Let Die?

Duff: It should be Live and Let Die.

Stern: Alright, go ahead. This is a world exclusive! I’m very excited. I didn’t expect this.

[Live and Let Die starts playing over the phone – it can barely be heard]

(Laughter)

Stern: I wish I had a band.

Quivers: I wish we could hear it. I mean, it’s a great song (laughs).

Stern: I just wish I had a band so I could be having this kind of fun.

Quivers: You would be dead by now (laughs).

[Live and Let Die is being played over the phone]

Quivers: (Laughs).

Stern: Sounds like it was recorded to Channel 9, doesn’t it?

(Laughter)

Stern: (Laughs) Channel 9 audio team.

Quivers: Hey, it’s an exclusive (laughs).

(Laughter)

Stern: Hey, what do we care. We’re just happy Guns N’ Roses calls us. Hey, Duff!

Duff: Guys, it sounds like crap!

Stern: Yeah, I know! What happened?

Duff: Well, I’m playing it to a DAT machine through headphones.

Stern: Well, maybe digital audio technology isn’t that good.

Duff: Um, it’s Jap crap. That’s what it is.

Stern: “Jap crap” (laughs). Hey, Duff...

Duff: Yo, brotha!

Duff: Robin, I’m not like that.

Duff: Yeah, but I have two dogs. This is more important to me.

Stern: Yeah, but, I mean, someone’s watching your money, right?

Duff: Yeah! Howard, you’ve got more money than I’ve got.

Stern: No, come on!

Duff: Come on!

Stern: Come on. What, are you kidding me?!

Duff: No!

Stern: What do you think I am, like Johnny Carson or something?

Quivers: He must have talked to you (?)

Duff: You are a baddy Johnny Carson, let’s put it that way.

Stern: Really? You think my TV shows got potential, huh?

Duff: And Robin is a baddy Ed McMahon. She only gets a (?).

Tracey: I’m 21.

Stern: Oh, you’re so young. Too young.

Quivers: How did you meet him?

Stern: How did you meet Duff? He doesn’t remember.

Tracey: No, I’m not letting him say. I met him through a girlfriend.

Stern: Oh. So, like, you’re a big Guns N’ Roses fan?

Tracey: No.

Stern: What, are you, like, flipping out? That’s some catch you’ve got there.

Tracey: No, it’s no catch at all.

Stern: He might like – he might be the kind of guy that, you know, he’s, like, treating you special for a night and you’ll never see him again.

Tracey: It doesn’t matter. He’s not gonna get anything for a night.

Stern: Oh, you’re not doing him or anything?

Duff: Alright, Howard.

Stern: Duff, from Guns N’ Roses.

Duff: See ya!

Quivers: Bye [cut]

I replaced the video with the longer (seems complete) version @Surge sent us and added the rest of the transcript.

I also corrected the date from March 1991 to May 1991.

Oh, Duff. This read like the ramblings of a drunken fool.

Soulmonster wrote:Oh, Duff. This read like the ramblings of a drunken fool.

I'm sure he is embarrassed of it now.

Just a drunk with a very big heart.

He shouldn't be too embarrassed, he was young and in a rock band.

For the record: The movie Stern refers to with Brian "Boz" Bosworth was released May 17. This was a private screening they mentioned, but Stern said "opening" as well. See https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102984/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_18

Mastering happens very late in the process, for AFD it was almost certainly in June or even July. That would be my two arguments for why this was done in May.

http://www.marksfriggin.com/news10/5-31.htm

It's listed here as September 8, 1991, but it doesn't make any sense, does it?
