Last week Phil Hendrie broadcast his last radio show after 13 years in the business. I didn’t find out about Phil’s show until last year, and since then I’ve listened to hundreds of his shows and I’m still not tired of him. If you’re not familiar with him, Phil hosted a talk radio show where he played both the host and in a different voice, the guest as well. People who aren’t in on the joke call up and get into arguments with his “guests.” Here are some of my favorites:

Chris Norton-Farenheit 69
In this bit Chris Norton, aspiring adult filmmaker is angry about the fact that he was shooting a very hot sex scene with a fire raging in the background when some fireman interrupted the shoot and evacuated all the actors. Chris wants the National Endowment for the Arts to make a contribution to his film as a result.

Mavis Leonard-Santa Ain’t Black
Mavis Leonard is tired of the “new negro nonsense” of parents telling their kids that Santa Claus is black. She has called Phil to let him know about this problem and refers to the angry callers who try to change her mind as “kwanza women.” She also sings multiple negro spirituals throughout the call.

Steve Bosell-Don Johnson Wink
Phil’s most litigious guest is back again. This time Steve is suing because he thought a woman was making eyes at him, but it turns out she was looking at Don Johnson, seated behind Steve. After exchanging glances, Steve went over to the woman and tried to initiate sex. She turned him down and now he’s suing her for emotional distress. He’ll drop the lawsuit if the woman agrees to a night out with him.

Justin McAlroy-Turn Your Headlights Off
Justin, a teenager who does not have a license, is urging other teens to take their parents car and drive around with their lights off to protest the oppression of adults.
