I once called the Grant show, and he said I was very perceptive. I was honored to get a compliment from one of my hero’s.

My wife and I went to a Bob Grant roast, I remember a new broadcaster Rush Limbaugh was one of the roasters on the dais
Rush was as funny as some of comedians. Rush said Bob was one of the Conservative talk formats pioneers and that was true. Bob Barry Farber, Barry Gray all great talkers and honest intellectuals worth the listener’s time.

RIP Bob- Strait Ahead to heaven, slam the lid on this chapter and on to the next.

My parents were at that roast, since my father’s company was an advertiser. My parents got a tape of the event, and my favorite joke was from Uncle Floyd. He joked that WLIB was holding a roast for their number host also that night. The difference was that at the end they were going eat him.
