I call it like I see it. I don’t hold back when it comes to being candid on the hot issues.
If you’re not having fun – I don’t care what you’re doing – don’t do it. Move on. Find something else, life’s too short.
I never realized that growing up in Brooklyn, flying jets, working on Wall Street and starring in a sci-fi series was the prerequisite for the fast-paced demands of talk radio. But, if that’s what it takes to succeed, I’m glad I did it all.
