I was always telling everyone, I want to be a broadcaster. They'd say, What, are you crazy? What, you're going to be Arthur Godfrey?

I've had bad days and good days in my life, but I've never had a day when I didn't enjoy that red light going on. Whether on the radio, or on television, there's still a little bump every time it goes on. And if you can spend a life, if you can get paid well for doing something you absolutely love, well you can't beat that.

When I was 5 years old I would lie in bed, look at the radio, and I wanted to be on the radio. I don't know why.

Nobody beats a bunch of journalists for inflating their rather mundane straightforward chores with a lot more melodrama and self-importance than the job should be asked to contain.

I'm sort of the comic relief after a hard day at work. My message is that it's OK to relax

It's joyful to give. But for people who want to take advantage of you, you're kind of an easy mark.

If they asked me, I did two shifts. I did sports, I did news, because I loved it.
