O/T - For the Old Timers Here

With sports radio XTRA-AM (570, 1150) switching formats
next month, former programming exec Howard Freedman
paid tribute to one listener who stuck to his guns, in more
ways than one.

A guy named Drew was a constant caller to an early 1990s
show hosted by Steve Mason and Rick Schwartz and
"always delivered some kind of Top 10 list," Freedman told
laradio.com.

"He was a main feature on the show until one day he
disappeared.

"Shortly thereafter, Drew called, saying he had been arrested
for bank robbery and was calling from the prison phone for
his 'one call' to deliver his Top 10 list."

It turned out that Drew had been on someone else's Top 10
list: the FBI's.

"I was immediately contacted by the FBI, who said they wanted
tapes of the show," Freedman added, "and one of the agents
was humiliated to admit he had been a fan of XTRA and heard
Drew call night after night."

You think this was the Drew / G.E. Koenig that did the rasn top 10 lists
and put out a book of 'em? ;) (SWMBO and I each have a copy)

I hope not.
I'd like to think he's still out there making people laugh.

It sure could be, although I can't say for sure. Does anyone
know for sure?
