For me, at the end of the day of the day it's still a job. I still have a boss and have to do things I hate doing. For Boomer he has to wake up probably around 3 in the morning, he has to plan out bits, he has to "be on" when he is on the air. It's more than just showing up and talking about fun things.

Oh I don’t doubt it has its disadvantages. But after 6 hours, he’s basically done for the day as well, so that’s what, 30 hours for a typical work week? Then you throw in all the perks and the extras and people you get to meet, it’s ultimately a pretty awesome gig. I’d take it over a paramedic or a truck driver or retail. Definitely beats boring job or a high pressure/stressful environment. Heck, Boomer’s gig definitely beats out Pat Steinberg’s gig. Pat probably doesn’t even sleep with the sheer amount of hours he puts in to the station.
