If you tell people Nick Redfern was on do you know how many will go back and listen?
Nobody, they have heard him peddle his woo before.
Well Nick may never come back. Dave believes he will, but this remains to be seen. And this incident might scare away other guests. No professional host that I know of would keep the guest hanging for 35 minutes. Yes, Dave supposedly has 14 years in radio, but you would never know it.
If you tell them Crazy Bonnie went on a 25 minute tirade then they will listen.
A magical call.
How would they know? She was never listed for that night and she got on in the last 35 minutes of Nick's show when most people were already asleep. And she talked so fast that most still awake (which they were there to listen to Nick most likely) tuned her out in the first minute or two (including Nick). So what good did it do to let her continue on for over 30 minutes if virtually nobody was listening? If it was just to upstage Nick and make Dave gloat (he believes it was on par with Art's classic shows no less), then mission accomplished.
