Used to listen to Leonard's Losers on the radio with my Dad, was my Dad's favorite.

Knew Leornard "Post Toasties" Postero for several years prior to his death...as did almost everyone in Athens...he was quite a figure about town LOL. He was a GREAT dude. Had more stories than the entirety of the collection of Reader's Digest...had done a LOT of living. Also knew his son but not as well..also seemed like a helluva guy. The radio show was basically him in a nutshell...he was what one would call a good hang today. He and I talked about doing his show after he retired once but to be honest I wasn't comfortable pulling it off...he was a genuine beloved celebrity and had some massive shoes to fill. His son did an admirable job for a while but the CFB world and fans had kind of moved on...his show is still available, I think, from Knoxeville if I am not mistaken, but it is a mona lisa kind of thing...no matter how well it is being done it will never be the masterpiece it was at its height.
Did the google machine...
Familiar....
