24. Don't bother calling Thom Hartmann
A caller just paid him a compliment, saying that Air DLC should give him a regular time slot and Thom cut him off saying that he wouldn't discuss "programming issues" on the air. Maybe he was anticipating the caller mentioning something about Mike, or maybe not, but either way, it seems Thom doesn't want to be dragged into it. Not that I blame him for that. He and Mike go back a long way, and I believe they're friends, yet Air DLC signs his paychecks. Tough position to be in.
