4. No, it was in the first half hour.

Usually they just ask a question and ask people to call in.

I'm a WJ total junkie. It's always so much better than anything else in the morning because you get to hear the people.

My best call ever, imo, was when I got through to the CEO of Marriott Industries, his named just happened to be Marriott, and I asked him how much he made and what was the salary of his lowest paid employee.

His answer? He took a pay cut so he was only making about 3 million in 2008 instead of his usually 12 million. He said the lowest paid was most likely house cleaning and that was around 12 dollars an hour. That's a lie. Housekeeping makes minimum wage.

I love it, this guy is getting torn apart by the way.
