We have guests like Hrudey, McGuire, McKenzie etc to talk hockey, but the demographic that our station targets Men 18-54, like other stuff. Movies, music, gambling, stuff like that. Hence the reason we have different guests on. In the three years that I have been producing the morning show, we have had plenty of guests that are non sports related like Bob Saget, Cheech Marin, William Shatner and recently we had Verne Troyer aka Mini Me. These guests have nothing to do with sports, but they are some of the more memorable interviews on our station. It works when they happen every once in awhile, as a complete 180 from what we usually talk about. This is also a reason why many of sports shows turn out to be "guy talk" as well. It's sport talk mixed in with movies, hotties, music talk as well and based on listener surveys, that's what the listeners want.

Do you remember the Mc-Lovin Interview with the Movie guy?

My favorite interview I have ever heard. Kid has a dirty mouth for live radio?
