Wild Steve, of XERK and WOLF-FM, has passed on, albeit in 2023.

I've just heard about this, today!   https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/name/george-hopp-obituary?id=53330173     Somewhere, I still have a XERK show on cassette kicking around. I also have a couple shows, recorded off-air, of WOLF-FM in the mid-1990's. He was quite the character over the phone, and even QSO'ed with him on CB skip in 1992. Oh yeah!!! He's also the one who got me using the MiniDisc format, which revolutionized my production and on-air quality. Wow... He'll be missed. 

UPDATE: Boomer, linked me to what's existing of Wild Steve's site.    https://www.wolffm.com/?page_id=13

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.
