I can’t imagine in this business or any other business, I can’t imagine just not doing anything. And you’re driving yourself from show to show, so that’s a lot of time on the road. What do you like to listen to while you’re out there? ball game or baseball game on, I can’t sit and watch the whole thing on TV. I love to watch the sports recaps on SportsCenter, the highlights. I like to keep up with sports instead of watch them. If you listen to the radio, you have to use your imagination. Some of those baseball announcers, they have to paint that picture to people that aren’t watching, just listening. It’s interesting to me. Who do you like to follow? A particular team? The marketing calls your comedy “common sense comedy,” that you say things plainly. There was a time that it was easier to do that, but it seems like comedians are being asked to pull back from anything that might be offensive. I’m a weird type of sports fan. I’m not a big fan like most guys who like sports, but I like to be knowledgeable of sports, so I can talk about sports. If I was at home and there was a foot- I do what I call “social commentary.” I look for situations where there’s a point to it, and there’s some humor to it. I don’t want to preach to anybody. But I do think one reason I like sports talk radio. 16 August 2016 INSIGHT
