To be fair, when Sorry goes off script we get questions like ''why does Jesus have a Mexican name?''

Christ! Didn't that happen last night or the night before when he was asking… I forget because I didn't listen to that guy that was blaming everything on Trump, he asked the guest some pretty stupid questions and it was almost like he was trying to be smart and with it.  Kind of like when he uses every opportunity to mention he's friends with Billy Mumy or Billy Gibbons. He is so out of it, he's trying to be in it.

Someone in the old country had a sNoory soundboard and used it with those Indian scam callers who were so prevalent.  Was it Eddie Dean?  It was a hoot.
I remember listening to Phil Rizzuto on a NY station interviewing some sports figure.  Must have been in the 60s. Anyway, Rizzuto would ask a question and the guest would give an answer that had nothing to do with question.  I soon realized the guests answers were one question ahead of the question.  Clearly the guest had been recorded and playback was messed up.
If Coast were to do this, it would cost more to have someone edit in the questions, so they probably wouldn't do it.  The soundboard though - they could fire sNoory and pay Tommee $100 more a month to operate the soundboard.

Wasn't one of them Tanya Roberts?  And somebody like Roseanne?

Tanya Roberts, that was it.  And I did also hear the exact same ad with Roseann, but maybe not on Norry's show.

Back when I worked in radio, we would have 33 RPM 45 sized records that were open ended interviews. They would have small holes like a regular LP.

On the cover was a list of questions to ask and how many seconds were in between each answer.

It's amazing I actually remember that shit. It was a very small part of my job.

I remember seeing one of Billy Graham that probably is worth quite a bit of money. It was like a box set of 78 RPM records, a true album, but it was Billy Graham talking on all sorts of different subjects. Death penalty, abortion, Stuff like that.

I remember hearing a time share commercial Snorge used to run, it was him asking a celebrity various questions and them responding.  One day I heard the very same commercial on a different station, but it was the host of that show asking the questions with the same celebrity and the same responses.  The celebrity parts were pre-recorded and sent out, with the local hosts each reading the script and putting the thing together.
