Hello!
Matt from Springfield (Virginia) here. I've been listening to the Best Show about a year and a half now, glad to chat with other Friends of Tom!
It's been almost two years since I first started listening to WFMU, and around that time I checked out the Apr 28, 2009 show after Brian Turner announced earlier that day Martin Short would be on at 8. I don't normally like talk radio, but before that episode ended I decided I LOVED Tom and the Best Show! I never heard anything like that before, and don't think I will find a talk radio show more enjoyable! (I have since determined that 'FMU talk shows in general are the best, Tom's still #1).
Like many FOTs probably were, I was drawn in to Tom's humor long before I even knew about BS--a writer of "Monk", which has been around since I was in high school, "Tom Goes To The Mayor" and esp. "Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!" from when I was in college (and stayed up very late watching those on Adult Swim!) Thank you Tom, for still leaving me impressed!
