I always thought Jerry sounded very "old fart-y" on the air.  Talk stations
have enough of a problem attracting an under 50 audience as it is, I can't
see him having much appeal to an audience even that young.  He also sounded
as if he were running on autopilot the last few years...does he have
anything fresh to add?
