My autistic cousin loves finebaum and wants to talk to him so I’ve tried helping him call in so he can talk to Paul since that’s all he ever talks about. Any help?

Never tried but they are probably all plants. There's a reason it's the same people every day.

The same people I think have a different number to call in with.

I can say this...I worked in radio for a decent time and they will screen calls. On top of that, they will take a favored regular caller over somebody they don't recognize. It will be very, very difficult to get on the air.

Not plants, as such.

The people who screen the calls will put a regular on before somebody they don't know. Why? because they recognize the name and know they will get a quality call, or at least someone they know will be entertaining or get a reaction from listeners. It's all about the ratings.

I called in in once to tell Paul about a prank I pulled on a rival school.

Worst mistake I ever made.

Seems like EVERYONE should be able to get through, judging those huge radar dishes on the side of Finebaum's head.....

Back when he was on XM Radio, I got through a couple of times, just by calling over and over.

I was pretty proud of myself for my joke, I did a "SEC Halloween costumes" and my closer was that Paul's wife should go as a screeching witch and Paul should go as her son Derek Dooley.

Looking back, I'm... less proud.

Be careful, my thread about my adopted special needs child got wacked yesterday. Mods can be pretty insensitive

It's been said several times, on air, that his regular callers have a separate phone line to get through on. Even Laura said as much. Finebaum has even admitted, numerous times, to having off the air conversations with several of his regulars...bama callers. No secret what is discussed. As noted, plants.
