VB is not going to have much of a life.  How do you work from 3 until 7 PM
and from 1 until 4AM?

Of course, with his nickname, he probably doesn't have much of a life.

WGAN carried Colmes when he had a syndicated show about a decade ago.  It
was OK.  I didn't think Colmes was particularly good at interacting with
callers.   He did this feature called radio graffiti, where people would
call in with one liners, that was very funny.
