Michael Feldman-
He looks funnier on radio!

When I was living in Madison from 1978–1995, I started to listen to a Saturday morning comedy show on public radio “Whad’ Ya Know?” The host Michael Feldman started the comedy show on a local public radio station and over the years it grew to a national syndicated show. Michael Feldman is known for his one liners like “Goldman left holding the Sachs”. You can find a lot more at his blog.

I saw in the Milwaukee paper that the “Whad’ Ya Know?” comedy host is holding a contest to find his biggest fan. Here is my entry:

Why I should be picked as Michael Feldman’s biggest fan?

If I am picked I will not tell anyone how you ‘bombed’ on the David Letterman show many years ago.

I was in Madison during the early years of “Whad’ Ya Know?” when the show was broadcast on radio from some diner and I actually laughed at some of your jokes. Look where you are now, at the Frank Lloyd Wright Monona Terrance on the Lakefront and with a national audience.

I used to regularly listen to you show on Saturday mornings but now that I have a life I do not listen as often.

I am big fan or just plain fat fan.

Although I lived in Madison for 17 years I never went to your show and took a seat away from someone else.

You are of Jewish heritage and I am of German/Lebanese heritage, whatever that means.

I like doing nothing, a nice quality for your best fan.

I grew up in Milwaukee as I believe you did and in Milwaukee we are all related.

Today is the anniversary of the song: “I can’t get no satisfaction”. Is that not the theme song of your fans?

I am very serious minded and need to lighten up some. The light humor of your show is good for me.
