He's a bit more relevant to people out here than shows like Tim & Sid or whatever. And he's generally a really good broadcaster, I find him entertaining but not in a grating or over the top kind of way.

I invited him to speak at our Naval Reserve Unit a few years ago and we've been good buddies since. He was a raging alcoholic just before I met him but has cleaned up his act and is now a recovery coach.
The guys here in Regina have taken a chance that Canadians are starved for sports talk that is not just NHL/NFL/NBA and its grown beyond their wildest expectations!
