Re: Tai filling in for Jerry (free Phoenix!)

I stand corrected. Since Mindich was mentioned here, today the Phoenix 
announced they are going to stop charging for the paper and give it away for 
free from now on. Yeah!

<< Actually, he started using the name when he was
 working at WQBK AM/FM in Albany. Tai was working
 at the FM operation while a guy named Tom Leykis
 was hosting a show on the AM side. 
 
 When he got to WFNX, there was also a Tom (Lane)
 working there so he just kept using Tai.
 
 As far an earlier post about his real name, he
 doesn't make a big secret about it. When WFNX owner
 Stephen Mindich hosted a show on Boston Cablevision
 a few years ago he invited Tai to appear as a guest.
 Mindich asked him what 'Tai' stood for and Irwin told
 the story like it was no big deal... >>
