Los Angeles, CA -Talk Radio Network-FM announces the addition of The Phil Hendrie Show, premiering June 25, 2007. The new overnight show is scheduled to be live 10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. PST weeknights. Mark Masters, CEO of TRN-FM, welcomes the new show stating, "With the new Phil Hendrie Show, live overnights will never be the same again, like the smash hit "South Park" Phil is a master of satire and always delivers a pay off, which brings perspective on important issues of the day. Phil Hendrie has a unique skill of using absurdity to backlight absurdity. He truly is a genius at his art form."
"There's an enormous talk radio audience at night that not only wants the news and information, they want the explanation. I'm a monologist, a story-teller, a satirist and an interviewer. All of that will be put to use a thousand percent. Our show is that radio show millions of people have been scanning the dial at night looking for. June 25th, we arrive."
Adds Masters, "With the most contentious political Presidential election cycle in history literally on our doorstep, combined with all of the ongoing issues involving terrorism and the war in the Middle East, all talk stations nationwide will need a live overnight show that will be able to maneuver in and around this complicated landscape, someone with enormous range, someone who can entertain listeners but also inform them, someone who can help navigate his audience through big breaking news stories of the day, as they occur, yet do it all in an entertaining and compelling way that brings great perspective to issues - Phil Hendrie is the perfect man for that mission."
Phil got his start in radio as a DJ and began his career in talk radio in 1990. The first Phil Hendrie Show was a comedy talk radio program that became renowned for its unique and controversial guests, who were actually fictional characters created and voiced by Hendrie himself. The show became nationally syndicated in 1996 and was heard on over 100 stations around the country.
Phil Hendrie has performed voices on the animated FOX sitcoms King of the Hill and Futurama, and in Team America: World Police. In 2006, Phil starred in the NBC sitcom Teachers. He recently starred in the FOX/CBS pilot The Giants of Radio.

Horse puckey.
He's a talentless hack who made a living by purposely provoking people who weren't familiar with him, because he couldn't get people to call his call-in show otherwise.
Yes! Bobbie has my vote!! I missed this cause I was readin the thread backwards! I wish it was on AM radio, rather than FM, cause my home puter is on slow dial-up only! Shoot!!!
PH pioneered the high brow “pull-my-finger” genre.
Phil is just a guy who wants to stir up the sh&% and make people laugh. He pokes fun at the overly zealous who take themselves too seriously.
Examples: 1) Jay Santos - Brigadier Admiral of the Citizens Police Brigade. Their motto: “We take a peek over the shoulder of the police!”
2) Bobbie Dooley - Society girl and President of the Greater Western Estate Home Owners Association, who believes that the “old and unsightly” owe it to society to kill themselves to beautify her neighborhood.
3) Doug Danger - Gay man and Gay journalist who, despite how off topic, believes that ALL issues revolve around the idea that being a Gay man and a Gay journalist proves that straight people hate Gays. (No we don’t hate Gays, just HIM!)
4) Rudy Carnoza - Latin man who thinks that ALL women want to hear him say “lalalalalalalala” in their ear!
Keep in mind that Phil does ALL the voices of the characters on his show and then mixes in callers who THINK that the characters are real!
Springer is a low life who made his name first as a corrupt liberal politician and then as a liberal talk show host who appeals to the “lowest common denominator” is all humans and WANTS people to kill each other on the air.
Lighten up! He bashes everything and everybody!! Next he’ll probably start bashing internet forums like FR!!!
Dude’s a genius. Glad he is back.
It was a put on, but the way his “guests” would try and
justify themselves using flawed logic, blind spots, etc.,
and the way it would anger the callers was particularly funny.
We were having a company try and schmooze us to buy one
of their products, and were going to have it at a
Beverly Hills Restaurant. I erased the name of the
Restaurant, and replaced it with “Ted Bells Steakhouse”
and one of my colleagues, said she would never go there
cause she hates Ted Bell, cause he was an
insufferable snot. “Oooh, I hate him” were her
words. I couldn’t stop laughing. I finally disabused her
of that notion, but laugh about it to this day.
...and “Ted's of Beverly Hills Steakhouses'... We want to put our meat in your mouth
“Bobbie Dooley, President of the Western Homeowners Assn!!! (Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh)”
I seem to recall Bobbie and her husband not being the best of parents either.
Hendrie, unless he changes his format, is a joke. He plays hit “guests” and argue with himself. It’s too weird.
So if Phil Hendrie is on a station I can receive or on a web stream, I’ll probably hit C2C to see whats happening then turn to Phil when I find it’s more about the hollow Earth or Zeta Reticuli aliens.
I hate Jerry Springer, but listen to PH.
Did you ever hear PH do the Art Bell show....when General Jamieson tried to go INTO the eye of a hurricane?!? Oh, my God...I thought I was going to bust my spleen, I was laughing so hard.
Unfortunately, I missed that one.
I’m a semiregular listener of C2C, but only when the insomnia is running.
how could you forget a ‘bush bashing’ URL like ‘www.georgebushisgod.com’?
his new blog url is http://herbsewell.blogspot.com/index.html
KBLO!
There is no 'I' in Team America.
Yes there is.
thanks for the reminder on the original blog URL (I’m an idiot, it
was even in the comments with the lead article.)
