Leykis is a poser. He thinks he's hep because he calls LA "SoCal" - a term Californians never use. He gets his hipness by going out for rum & cokes on Sunset Blvd after watching Friends.
You're correct that Leykis is a poser. Years ago he had a "liberal" talk show that was somewhat maddening. He traded it in for something else and now has this "relationship" hogwash. He really wears thin fast.
