Notice there's no mention on this page, nor the press release, that Crummey records out of his El Ay home and emails his commentaries to the station?
Didn't Russ Hill pitch a hissy fit in one of his "Master Blogs" that KFWhyEye -- & Crummey! -- weren't honest with listeners by not disclosing that he broadcasts from his El Ay home!?

Hypocrites!
Russ hired Crummey in an act of desperation, once again throwing darts at the wall to see what sticks. The Evil Crummey, on the other hand, is also desperate ... desperate for work with no full-time, steady income the past nine months after being foisted by J.D. in pm drive. Crummey shines (that could be the name of his band!) when he's a full-fledged talk show host, not a measly one-minute-a-day, know-it-all smart ass commentator from another city. (Any host at 92.3 could do that!).
Take a listen again to the two commentaries - and close your eyes. Crummey sounds generic, misses key story details, lacks passion (he has a manipulative, paint-by-the-numbers radio talk show host speaking style) and misses key payoff lines to his set-up and plants. Why is that? Crummey doesn't eat, sleep, drink, shit, fart and breath our rarieifed smoggy air .. THAT'S WHY!
And how much does he get paid for a week's worth of one-min. segments!!??
