Was Matt on RTG? I only recall him being on the 10 a.m. talk-show (Boston
Matters?) they produced. There was a blonde woman who was the RTG host...who
was she? RTG was definitely a favorite in my house.

I recall Matt making an appearance at the Archdiocese of Boston's annual
softball game that WROR was involved with. No one seemed to know who the
heck he was.

At least he tried.
