5/26: Spiff still seeking a job
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Spiff Carner, formerly of Randy & Spiff, resurrected his “Hey, it’s Friday” bit on the Regular Guys this past Friday to the song “Bang on the Drum All Day.”
“I’ve lost a little bit since I’ve been off,” Carner said. “This is the earliest I’ve been up since October 8.” That was the day WGST-AM let him go, but kept his radio partner Randy Cook. The pair had been together for 22 years, including their longest stretch with Fox 97 from 1989 to 2003.
“I knew there was trouble,” Carner said. “We started doing this talk radio thing. The PD said it’d be better if you talked less… I think that’s a hint!”
He didn’t fight it. “I walked out of the building. You can’t argue with their success. Then I got home. Wait a minute. You can. You can argue all day long!”
He noted that if you want to employ him on the radio, his email is spiffhappens@gmail.com.
Larry offered for him to show up on Fridays anytime he wants.
“We can give you movie passes and t-shirts,” Larry said.
“Don’t compete with us. We don’t want to crush you,” Eric said, if Spiff got another job.
