insanse George Carlin radio interview 1990 (host thinks he's Gabe Kaplan???) wtf???

EDIT: Turns out it appears to have been a bit, (see post#3) but not known to the guest. I'll leave my original reaction here for posterity.

Holy shit!

even if he's somehow goofing (he can't be - even O and A at their worst wouldnt insult carlin like that) i hope that this host is either dead or his radio career is. :hamm:

i could possibly imagine thinking carlin may have played kotter way back when, but the host not being prepared to talk to carlin about anything?

the most insulting thing is that this host stays in wacky greaseman-ripoff character mode when its clear he's fucked up bigtime. we gotta research this guy.

p.s. the guy who is posting this stuff has got to be the best carlin-related youtube poster there is.

also, it's pretty funny that carlin admits kaplan had stolen some material from him in the past.

Apparently host is named Chucker and was working at this Minnesota station as late as 2004.

Apparently, it was a station bit.....what shit. O and A would do it, but not to Carlin. I'm not just saying it because he died. gotta admit, the Rob Schneider one is pretty good.

Ok, some radio stations don't want to interview everyone. So KQRS has a guy called the Chucker they unleash on those guests. He spoofs the unsuspecting guests by confusing them with someone else who's famous or otherwise.

There's the christian comic, Jim Nabors, George Carlin, and Rob Schneider.

Here he confuses Christopher Reeves for Keanu, I think (http://www.kqrs.com/listingsEntry.asp?ID=274305&PT=Bits+%26+Audio).

There's a ton more, but these are the ones that the radio station still has posted.

Who knew there was a Greaseman wannabe out there??

sounds like an Allen Thicke wanna be, what a fuckin douche! George wants him to come backstage to meet him so he can whoop his fuckin ass.
