For Tom -- I know you've touched on this before, but how much of your on air persona would you say is you and how much is an affected personality? You've talked before about your love of Morton Downey Jr. and I was wondering if you consciously sort of feed off his vitrol when dealing with bad callers. Also, I love Steve Universe so much -- how did you end up getting the role? Was rebecca sugar already a fan of the best show?
For Jon -- Do you have a favorite character to portray, and perhaps a favorite malapropism? How much ad libbing do you generally do during bits -- I imagine most of it must be scripted beforehand but sometimes it seems like you must be winging it a bit.
Also, to both, thank you so much for doing what you've done for so long. Having the show to listen to has helped me (especially recently) through a lot of hard times and binging on the box set always keeps me from going off the deep end.
