Wiki article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_the_cable_guy)

He became known in the South in the early 1990s when he made regular radio appearances via phone on programs such as The Ron and Ron Show.

Look, I'm not a LtCG basher. He's not my cup of tea, but he makes a lot of people happy and makes a lot of people laugh. Good for them, and good for him.

I just didn't expect that Ronnie B was so heavily involved in making him.

Ron has mentioned him a few times over the years. There's no love lost between them, apparently. I think he eventually pissed off Ron and Ron by going on another local morning show.

Larry was on O&A a few months back, and brought up that he thought Ron Bennington is one of the funniest dudes ever.

it seems "larry" was just a guy who did phoners to lots of radio shows and one of them was with Ron.

he then too his act out to the public as we see him today.

So does this mean in a few years we are going to see a new comic named Blue Healer or kevin from Connecticut?

"The "Larry" character was created after a friend from The Ron and Ron Show on 95YNF in Tampa, Florida asked him to call in as a cable installer and install his cable."

I think I have heard him mention Ron in other interviews also. So, in a world of it is all about me, it is a welcomed surprise.

larry started out as a caller on YNF(tampa) when the buddays got syndicated in the southeast they couldnt broadcast in tampa for a year so they went to JRR(just ron n ron) in orlando.larry lived there and went in studio some times. when the year was up larry kept the orlando thing goin and the split was made. his other calls to mornin shows didnt create any heat so he dropped everything to do stand up and the ron and ron show

I can guarantee that I will not be a stand up comic in the future. That seems like too much work!
