Guy died at the hospital down the road from where I live, odd.
 
He never really recovered from the “nappy headed ho“ comment. Dude was radio gold though, him and Stern I don’t know if I’d call them battles, but their relationship it was quite interesting.
Yep, Imus didn’t really know that they were doing different shows.

they both had incredible edge and pushed boundaries, but were different.

Tells you to find a different hospital if you should happen to get sick.

Imus was like David Letterman - he kept doing the show until he no longer liked it, and then he kept doing it for another 10 years. If he had quit at the end of the 90s, before he became so relentlessly self-promotional ("Send an underprivileged kid to my ranch!" "Buy my calendar", "Buy Fred's Whatever-the-Hell"). At Least Fred's bits were funny, as was Charles McCord with the news segments, and then Don's reaction to them. But he overstayed his welcome, just like Fat Boy Francessa.
