Re: After hearing this I\'m ready to get rid of my VIPER!
Phil Henrie isn't on in my area any more. I listened to his show when it was.
For you guys who haven't listened to it, it's really funny.
He will do an interview with a "guest" who is actually Phil himself.
The "guest" always has some slightly crazy idea or job, the "interview" gets going and then they take calls commenting on the "guest's" ideas.
I remember one "guest" was supposed to be the head of security for a big shopping mall. He said that they were cutting into shoplifting by strip searching teen girls at random as they left the mall.
I know, now you all want to get into security, at least part time.
Of course all the callers thought it was for real and most of them were saying how they couldn't believe this policy was allowed. More than a few were guys saying what would happen if it was their daughter that got searched. Lots of emotional people calling.
The "guest" giving nearly sensible answers to ranting callers and keeping his cool, talking in cop speak.
That's the way the show goes. It's always some off the wall idea, put across as if it were real.
He never actually lets on that the show is a put on and it seems like it fools quite a few people.
