Ok, but is he phoning in his show like he has been the past decade?

He was pretty good (for the time) when live here in Chicago. Guess at some
point moved to California and tried national syndicated or something.

Last few times he was back on the air here, sounded too generic. Without the
local element, it disconnects from the audience to me.

I should point out though, I don't care. Total listening time to the radio
annually for me, about 5 minutes these days.
