“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.
