Neil, God!
in Neil Rogers

Well that about does it for me and AM radio.
I'm still processing the news that Neil will be off the air in South Florida.
Anyone who grew up here in the 70s and had any sense of humor at all listened to Neil, and what a run it was. Talk radio had a bunch of freaks back then -- Neil, Steve Kane, Alan Burke, Bill Calder, Hank Goldberg, Larry King, I could go on -- but Neil was the funniest, and the best.
Whether it was his mid-70s "topic radio" period of Jews marrying Catholics, abortion rights, and all that stuff that still makes Glenn Garvin really really angry, to his great show on Zeta-4 to his coverage during Hurricane Andrew or 9/11 to his contentious final run, Neil was a constant, a source of opinionated intelligence, smarts, smart-aleck humor and personality, and a softie at heart who always loved his mother. It's a testament to the quality of his show that I often disagreed with him but still always wanted to hear what he had to say.
I hope he gets his posterior onto Sirius and keeps on shining a light up the arses of the pompous, the clueless, the corrupt, and the incompetent.
