If, not it would be pretty cool.

Seconded.  Does he do interviews, though?  People know more or less who he is, but he doesn't get "out there" as I understand it.

I've never heard of LPC doing an audio interview, but he's done some in print.

I'd flip out if he appeared on the Best Show. I think Tom, Jon, and LPC are pretty much the funniest people out there.

This negative feedback is just heating up over here.

Maybe Tom Gugliotta could be a guest once he comes off tour with the Scorpions.

I haven't heard any interviews either.

My friends' band did a record called "Is That Factual?" a few years ago and I'm pretty sure the LPC guy got in touch with them to show his appreciation haha.

Side note: I passed Dugan avenue on my way home today.

definitely see similarities in LPC's humor and the more absurd, crazy parts of Wurster's calls. LPC battling it out with a Wurster character would be potentially mindblowing. with or without delay rack.

chesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

LPC is one of my all-time faves (see: my username). I would love to hear a good interview/call between LPC and Tom, but it won't happen.

I've heard he can be really weird about interviews. I'll leave it at that.

I'm sure part of his weirdness is that he's worried about the legalities of being a semi-professional prank caller. But I think at this point, I'd actually rather hear a Best Show call with JW as an LPC-alike.

Tom has said several times in interviews that he doesn't like prank calls, and the general concept of making fun of people who aren't in on the joke.

Still, I want to hear an interview with Mark Knopfler.  How on earth did he keep from breaking up?
