6/3/2008: The previous day, then new (now ex) producer Ryan Stewart came up with a new segment for the show entitled "Ryan's Riddle", where Ryan would read a riddle on the air, and listeners would call in and guess what the answer was. Apparently it either didn't prove very interesting to the audience or no one could come up with the answer, as not a single listener called in to participate. This apparently did not sit well with Lino, and he took it out on us the next day:
Mercifully "My Heart Will Go On" did not go on for the entire hour. But it went on long enough.
Lino's frustration with the show was coming out over the air at this point. Notice that this particular segment took place in June, just a couple months before Lino had to start thinking about whether or not to resign. Some of those summer shows were difficult to listen to, not because they were particurally bad, but you could tell Lino was unhappy. Since re-signing a few months ago, though, it seems that Lino has adjusted to his new crew and is enjoying himself again.
