Am I wrong? READ, LISTEN, AND REACT! :)

So I got this email in regard to a phone call I aired on my show where a woman accused me of advocating drinking while under the influence.  WTF!  Are you kidding?  If you get what I do than you get the term “SARCASM”.  You decide though.  Go to my podcast section first and listen to “Confronting An Email Complaint From Fran”.  Then you tell me.  In the meantime, enjoy a nice little email an irate listener sent me (1 of many actually:) I pasted below:) 

Julian:

When you told Fran that she was too old to be listening to your show you were speaking to me and many other 50+ year olds.  If I were to say to a listener “oh, you are American of Asian decent, you should not be listening to my show” would you not take that personally? 

I did hear the phone conversation before I emailed you.  As I recall you were talking with one gal and asked her to put her drunk sister on the phone.  You suggested she come see you however she responded that she was too drunk to drive and you still pressed her to come and see you. 

As far as Fran is concerned, I believe you had an opportunity to tactfully express your position.  Instead you aggravated the situation by being disrespectful in your tone and when she didn’t bite at that you made the conversation about her, her age, and resorted to calling her a dumb ass.  I hope you learn that you are fortunate to have so many listeners who enjoy your show, for the most part, and care enough to express their opinion.  Keep in mind, when Fran knew it was you on the phone she was open to talking with you. It was you who degraded the conversation by insulting, degrading and disrespecting her.  I noticed you majored in major communications; maybe you should have minored in adult communications. 

On a less sarcastic note:  I hope you now realize that you have a wide age range of listeners and it is not for you to decide who is old enough or young enough to listen to the music you play.  When you reach the age of 50 and bop your head to a jam be careful…you may sprain your neck  I think your behavior in connection with this matter speaks to your character.  I will not be listening to B96 when you are on the air nor will many of my friends.

Ok…I’ve heard every urban legend/myth/old wives tale out there! There’s one that is YET to be proven or DISPROVEN, and pics like THIS one circulating around the internet don’t help!

I’m convinced that Elvis is dead but you can’t tell me that TUPAC is dead for sure….LOOK!

Note the G UNIT T-Shirt that 50 is rockin’ in the pic!

The G Unit didn’t start until 2002, Tupac “died” in 1996….whoa!
