New Jersey 101.5 has taken its mid-day hosts, Dennis Malloy and Judi Franco, off the air until further notice in light of comments about state Attorney General Gurbir Grewal made during Wednesday's show.
"We are aware of the offensive comments made by Dennis and Judi during todays broadcast," the station said Wednesday night. "We have taken immediate action and have taken them off the air until further notice. We are investigating the matter and will have further comment shortly."

Very clearly an offensive radio station, with offensive management.
Hopefully these two find better employment after this.
He’s a man. He wears a turban. It’s descriptive.

I believe what they said was a little over the top.
WHO, what, when, where, why?...................
Well, if the Attorney Generals name were pronounceable....
I am surprised they lasted this long since the NJEA took over the station a few years ago.
NJ101.5 is liberal garbage now
They thought bringing back Duminski and Dumdum was going to save the station? Who can listen to those losers argue about ice cream.
Dennis was the only star they have. Judy can jump in the lake, she is no one special.
Gearhart was awesome, always was after the NJEA and the corrupt public sector unions, but he just does a pod cast here and there, fell in his home and injured his head a few years ago.
I remember that vividly.
Gearhart is not the same anymore.
They clearly were trying to say ‘Turbo Man’ in reference to the hero from the Arnold Schwarzenegger Christmas classic Jingle all the way.
I believe what they said was a little over the top.

So don’t listen to them.
IIRC, Grewal is a Sikh name. They are known to wear turbans. They carry ceremonial knives too.
He could have said “I’ll stick with the guy with the knife.”
Too bad he doesn’t wear a cowboy hat...those guys don’t get offended when you call them Cowboy Hat Man.
The state attorney general is as big of a commie statist as the governor and the rest of his neo marxist regime in Trenton
I miss BOHICA and GRIP
I pronounced it "Gerber Gruel", which we used to feed our kids (except it was AKA "Pablum").
I respect Sikhs, they took a lot of crap from folks who mistook them for Muslims after 9-11. They’re not trying to kill us.
The pair continued to call Grewal "Turban Man" throughout the segment.
And here - is TURBAN MAN!
I see nothing disrespectful in that other than it’s a bit childish...................
Grewal is a Sikh, this one a Democrat.
Funny cause all the Sikhs I know are conservative .... some with family histories serving in our armed forces as far back as WW1.
It’s talk radio. Anything can happen on any given day.
