Subject: Re: Call-in talk show participants, were you one?

I was a call in talk show participant. I called the hosts on KDKA often back when I had a Bell Atlantic cell phone and cell phone calls were free. I also called Lynn Cullen often, usually to disagree with her. I often called Myron Cope, and was once even invited to be on his show as a guest for an entire hour!

It seemed to me that talk started being less interesting to listen to when the syndicated hosts started talking over, with minimal callers on the air. When I read posts from people lamenting the lack of local call-in shows, I can't help but wonder if maybe such shows would still be on the air if they had more and better content from participating callers.
