I loved his show, and laughed my friggin' ass off at the doofus callers who didn't get the joke.
(My wife didn't get the joke for two weeks; I finally had to enlighten her one night when she came in just raising hell about the way Hendrie was treating one of his "guests.")
"I'm just sorry we don't get Hendrie in DFW any longer."
That's what my cousin in North Dallas said for about a year until Hendrie's mother station
got on the net:

KFI is also good for a few other shows:
Captain Dale Dye (USMC, ret.), Sunday 5-7PM PacTime, always with some good "boots on the
ground" perspective about military affairs
John Douglas' "MindHunter" show, Saturday 7-10PM PacTime...not for the squeamish
as the former FBI profiler spills the beans on the sickos he's seen.
The Jesus Show; Sunday morning 6-8AM PacTime. OK, this one sounds hideously sacrilegious (sp?)
right off the bat. But don't write it off until you give it a listen and also
consider that it's in Los Angeles...on a secular station.
Yes, with all the radio choices we are blessed with here in DFW, you'd think a station would have picked him back up(dump Savage for him!) Perhaps he is too blue and raw for the market. In fact I usually would tune him out because of that. But I am so drawn to incredible talent that I'd keep checking back in occassionally. He really is amazing.
I saw him recently on the Dennis Miller show. He is a sort of slovenly fellow personally. He dressed for the tv appearance by wearing a clean tee-shirt and blue jeans worn only a week or so while he slouched and seemed to be singularly disinterested in participating in the discussion at hand.

I got the joke and still couldn't find anything funny about his schtick. We already have enough disharmony in this country without manufacturing more. He brings nothing to the dialog but complete idiocy.
