John is a recurring character on the Elliott in the
Morning radio show on DC one on one, often used
as a comedic device where Elliott portrays a fictional visually

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Key points fictional character you ain't real. Wait, so people,
what do you? How do you call in? So people
think I'm talking to myself? Yes?

I couldn't believe it. My friend took a screenshot and
we sent it to a bunch of my coworkers. I'm like, man,
I'm really not blind, like I've been completely acting blind
this entire time.

On two occasions there have been technical issues where you
have been able to do that.

Okay, that is true. That is true.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
And in top forty radio with the reverb, it sometimes
sounds like the DJ is always talking to him.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
But there's a very there is a very famous case
of a DJ that used to talk to a character
that he did, and it was Glenn Beck used to
talk to Clydie Clyde back when, no when, when Glenn
Beck was a Top forty disc jockey.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
He worked in Houston. Clyde E Clyde.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I think that was the stupid characters now, No, he was,
he was, he was.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
He was a horrible top four.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
He's done pretty well for himself, but he was a
horrible top forty disc jockey back in Houston, and he
would talk to Clydeie Clyde, and he would talk back
and forth to himself. It also reminds me of this one.
I feel horrible for saying, horrible for saying, but one
of my one of my heroes, Rick Deez used to
talk to the drunk engine near Willard Wiseman.
