What's your favorite new show of the Fall TV season?
I like this new show on Monday nights at 8 on NBC. It's called "HEROES". It's riveting and cool. Here's the premise: People all over the world are discovering superpowers they never thought they had. Are these people destined to save the world time and again?
Why (or how) did you get into radio?
After I graduated from college, I took a crappy telemarketing job. I wasted most of the companies time in my cubicle building things out of the office supplies. But I also spent that time listening to the radio. One day I said, "I can do that." I quit a day later and here I am.
What's the strangest "radio dream" you've ever had?
One time I woke up and I couldn't believe I was dreaming that I was trying to do a sports talk show with Condoleezza Rice. Everytime I saw her on TV over the next month I felt like we were close friends. You know that feeling?
Who was your favorite person to interview on radio, and why?
The Goo Goo Dolls were great this year. They kept playing with Guy Phillips sound EFX machine the whole time and all these weird noises were going out on the air. Me-"Johnny, tell us about life on road." Johnny- "Uhh" (then he hits a button) EWMPUH, EWMPUH DOOBIDY DOO!!! I'VE GOT A RIDDLE FOR YOU.
