There was a tape of great calls that I listened to probably 20 years ago - back when cassette tapes were the medium of reference and you could check them out at the library. I remember one caller who talked about putting a raw egg in his radiator to plug a leak - before the call was over they were talking about adding pepper and making eggs Benedict. That call may be what later precipitated "Stump the Chump," when they would contact a previous caller and find out if the advice worked. The program grew organically, as ideas occurred to them they tried them out, resulting in a great mix of material to work with.

The laughter was infectious. If there was ever a rainy Saturday when my mood needed a pick-me-up, listening to the laughter on that program was always a help.
