Talk Radio Poll

After lead-in Jack Wheeler criticizes Lassiter for too often doing polls on his show, Lassiter retaliates by...doing a poll. This one is about the Tampa Bay talk show hosts, and which ones are the worst offenders in various aspects of the job. (You'll also hear quite a bit of circa-1987 pop music in the background; It's not Bob providing a soundtrack. The original sender recorded this show over a mix tape.)

Sheryl Browne

One of Bob's most popular and notorious shows finds him tackling local Channel 10 news anchor Sheryl Browne and her sappy, gag-inducing mediocrity. He uses Sheryl as a surrogate for the entire Tampa Bay media landscape and gets a flood of calls in general agreement; this show actually led to an aborted lawsuit against WPLP by Channel 10.
