Stolen by Anchorman, but based on stuff that radio stations did (at least where I grew up) in the 1970s. Crazy times.
Johnny Fever was the Shotgun Tom of television.

Ha! I thought it was Cyrillic.
And with Deep Throat from the X-Files administering the test.
Had his Charlie Moore, from Head of the Class , taught at my high school I might not have dropped out.
Having Robin Givens and Khrystyne Haje in my class would have been pretty good motivation to keep going to school as well.
Intro to Blue Collar Man at the end gave me all the feels. Love it!!
