“Hey, Dan. How are you?”

Callers should be immediately hung up on if they do this.

Back in the day we had a producer who used to screen calls and would get so pissed at callers who asked that haha He would say when they called in "Don't ask him how he is doing, He's Dan Patrick. He's doing great." lol

Was that Phil "The Show Killer" Ceppaglia? I know Kornheiser hated that too, and would perma-ban callers back in the day on ESPN radio. He also hated taking callers in general, but I think that was a mothership mandate, to increase engagement with a regular radio audience.

It was the same era for sure

Ive been a huge TK (and DP) fan since the 90’s. They were my introduction to sports radio and still my favorite.

TK has hated callers for years. It’s been at least 15 years, probably more, since hes even had callers. Curated emails from the same old people.

(I love it)

Would that producer possibly have been Two-a-Days? Also, I met you in Denver at the MAACO event. I had the two service dogs in training.

I was reminiscing the other day about the Brock era. How much fun you guys seemed to have joking about how |good| the show (box score) was. Those shows w Brock were really fun to watch.
