Ted Leitner explains how it all started.
"People love to say, 'What'd you do today?' I stole that (from comedian Elayne Boosler). He had always done stuff like that and told me about it. Since he was telling me off the air, I decided to ask him. I thought the stories were hysterical and I thought, let's share them with the audience. The true listeners comment to me more about that than anything else. "
