Him doing that 19 second intro was one of the best moments of FBHW ever. I just loved the celebration afterwards, including Joe honking the air horn as if someone scored at Joe Louis Arena.

I just got to listen to this segment on Podcast and you're right...it was really good!

Len is great, amazing sense of humor, voice like velvet, and a genius at hitting the post

It was definitely an awesome moment. Len rocked it and acted like it was nothing while the guys went nuts.

It was like soft butter slowly melting on pan made of velvet all slow cooking on a stove of awesome.

I'll admit, I nutted.

They should force Len to come into the studio any time hes not doing anything for 2 seconds. The Freebeer, hotwings, and Len show! I like it.

they should re-record all show bumps and promotional sound bits and use Len

Len O'Kelly is the Balls. He HAS to walk around like he owns the station with a voice like that.

Len has a website with voice samples!

I wish I hadn't clicked that link. My libido is disappointed in the disparity between voice and appearance.
Len O'Kelly was awesome on Friday - neelyohara27 - 10-20-2008
Wow, with that voice, I would never have put that face with that voice.

Terribly sorry, Allyson, but that's the best picture of him. Although, if you use your imagination, you can imagine this guy reading it.

I'm just disappointed that I didn't work in at least one "Kaboobie." Maybe next time.
Thanks for the notes - and thanks for reminding me that I have to update that website...
best,
Len

Ah, welcome to the world of radio, where one's looks rarely match up with the sound of their voice.
A few years back somebody approached me after a public speaking engagement and told me that I had the perfect voice to get into radio. They didn't really understand why I took the comment as a bit of a back-handed insult.

Len was awesome. I love how everyone was waiting, with their breath held, for him to just nail it. and of course he did.

They all look the same in the dark... or under a pillowcase.

Saying you've got a voice for radio isn't so bad, if they said you have a face for radio, that's the insult. Kind of like Bob and Tom.
How much fun would it be if Len was a semi-regular on the show? Have him come in every Friday and read WHWT, or something

I agree. Can you imagine: "It's time for the Free Beer and Hotwings Show..." "Here's what Hotwings Thinks"...
Hell, they should just take him on the road with them, and have him be the official announcer of everything.

Great. Now I know that the voice of God actually belongs to a retarded banker.

I was STUNNED when I seen what FBHW & Eric Zaned looked like when I saw them for the first time. I had thought that zane was 80 years old, had a gray comb over and a beer gut. I pictured FB as an overwight petaphile with glasses and a mullet, and I pictured HW as a 25 year skinny "ginger" (red hair with frecles) wearing a calculator watch from 1992.
Len O'Kelly was awesome on Friday - loosewendy - 10-21-2008
Yeah, that whole "face for radio" thing sometimes scares off shallow people. I didn't know what to expect when I went in for my interview to become an intern.
I mean, this was back in the days of Fat Joe, and Andrew the Well Spoken Hairy-backed Cuban...
I was pleasantly suprised to find that I wasn't working in a building full of fat old men with bad comb-overs.
Just people with questionable grooming habits and bathroom manners.

Wow . . . you got all of that from their voices? I don't think Zane sounds old, and why in the world would you think Free Beer would be a pedifile? No comment on Hot Wings.

As evidenced by the miracle poo, and any of the other interns various defects.

Just give it time.....they'll be old and fat with comb overs before you know it.

Hey Len, how do you like your new custom title?

The funniest part is if you scroll down about halfway you see "Good Morning" in medium sized font.

No offense, Len. But based on that picture... "retarded banker" is pretty spot on description.
You need to update that!

Aww, you could have gone with something cheesy, like "Postmaster."
I'm going to have to hire a webmaster. Eff!

I want an audio clip of Len dropping an F bomb. That would make a great ring tone.

Verb or noun?

Just went to Len's site, he put a blip on the main page acknowledging FBHW listeners as an undeniable internet force.

Hehe, when I heard the air horn bit I knew that Len sounded familiar . . . it's from his stint at WODJ . . . lots of miles riding with my dad listening to that station.
I pictured Len to be much older, maybe because of the oldies programming and the sooper voice.
