48 hours of RKO

New in this week's Phoenix: I chronicle two straight days of WRKO chatter, including a caller's baseless assertion (not rejected by John DePetro) that Deval Patrick thinks rape is just rough sex.

    Adam, you subjected yourself to that kind of torture? I hear the Bush administration is subjecting detainees at Guantanamo with the same program.

    Howie Carr's undying support for Kerry Healey shows the Captain has lost his touch. He no longer has his finger on the rage driven pulse of the Massachusetts electorate. In 1990, he led the brigade that chased Michael Dukakis all the way to Hawaii. But now, sixteen years later he's still singing the same tune: the Mass GOP will save us all. Sorry Captain, after Weld, Celluch, Swift and whatever this new guy's name is (or was), that tune is sounding a little stale -- The old Howie Carr would have jumped on the Christy Mihos bandwagon and terrorized the Devallians right up until election day. Must have been all those weeks on the best seller list.

    Thanks for sharing Howie's "Fluff" line. Still smiling. Also, it would have been good if you'd listened later - Feinberg, the guy after Howie, is best thing RKO has going.

    I felt bad about not including Todd F., but the Healey people didn't even put him on their talk-radio call list. Plus, his show doesn't wrap up until after my bedtime.
