Chapter 2: What questions did listeners ask Eddie this episode?
So that was a good experience, and that sort of laid the groundwork for me to do what I did years later with Boomer and Carton and now Boomer and Geo.
Was that during the overnight or his nighttime show?
This was the overnight. When he moved to the midday with Russ, That was a differentāwe did a little bit of that, but not much of that. It was more of a sports show, a goofy sports show, but a sports show. But the overnight was kind of, as you know, anything goes.
Yeah, one of the things I think with Steve Summers in St. Nick, he was difficult to work with, and many a young board op went running. When I was doing my interview podcast and I talked to Steve, one of the things that was apparent is because he was working the nighttime show or overnight show, he seemed to always get the new guy. Correct. Right?
And, like, Boomer has had you the entire time other than those few months with Lou Ruffino.
Yes.

Chapter 3: What was Eddie's experience filling in on the Imus show?
So Steve was always getting new people. And very frustrating. Very frustrating. And you get a guy who you're working well with and then that person gets a promotion to a better time slot. Right. And then you're stuck with always training somebody new.
And that was more not so much on the overnight because it was he had a few regular guys and they were there every day. Same same person with him on the over.
Yeah.
Chapter 4: How did Eddie handle his first call to fill in on the Imus show?
He got moved to when he came when he left and then came back. Then he moved to the midday and then he left and then came back and he was doing the evenings. It was just by the way the shifts in the schedule worked.
know there wasn't a full-time evening board operator yeah those were only a few of the shifts that were by a full-timer and then the others would just fill in part-timers every week so it was like he could have three working with three different guys now every week would guys be warned of what they were walking into yes yeah like you give a heads up like hey uh-huh yeah but they didn't get
They didn't get training prior to going in with him. No, no, they did. On that show?
No. Not on that show, right.
So they knew what they were doing to run the board for a show, but now you're moving into a guy who's very particular. Yes.
Yeah. Yeah. So I would say Steve, which might shock some people, but for sure, Steve.
This guy said you would be honest. All right. Let's see. What was Eddie's favorite fast food place as a kid? This comes from Michael Green.
Burger King. Burger King. I was a Burger King guy. And probably because it was the first fast food restaurant I have a memory of going to. Yeah. And also they had the crowns.
Right, they had the crowns.

Chapter 5: What was the dynamic like working with Imus?
Hey, there's supposed to be a couple of planets in this system. Where are they? And they were like rubble because this probe had destroyed the planets and then it had attacked the constellation. I think it was Commodore Decker. Matt Decker, I believe, was the captain who gave a great that actor. I forget his name. He gave a great performance in that.
And that is probably my all-time favorite Star Trek, the original series. Yeah, the original. TOS, as they say, episode. So as a kid, I watched a lot of Star Trek in a rerun slot in the afternoons because it had been off the air since I think 68 or 69. And I wasn't watching TV at that point. And then I loved, I was a big Scooby-Doo and Bugs Bunny fan. Oh, okay.
These are all the afternoon stuff after I got home. Yeah. But I would say Star Trek for sure. And then, you know, the cartoons. But I was a big fan of Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Machine.
Could you figure out the mysteries as they were going along?
At that age, no.
Hmm.
Patrick wants to know, would you ever consider moving into a 55 plus community?
I wouldn't necessarily be against it, but I don't see that happening. You know, when we are going to be looking, you know, I guess within a year, year and a half after I retire, we'll be looking at properties up in the Berkshires and seeing what we can afford. And it might turn out that, you know, hey, we'll go to this 55 and over property.
But I don't I'm not against it, but not against it, but not seeking it out, not seeking it out. But it may evolve that way.
