Hi there folks - how are ya? You know, I've always wondered what the typical 'Letter to America' listener looks like. Well, now I know.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Thom Brown, III.
Now, you may ask what makes Thom so special - so deserving of the 'Typical Letter to America Listener' moniker? Well I've been receiving more emails as the show gets more popular, (though I'm sure nowhere near as many as the delightful Aine Chambers), and Thom's are, both in style and content, the spot-on, arrow in the centre of the target, typical examples of listener mail.
Also, I saw his photo on our Frappr map and the thing is he looks EXACTLY HOW I PICTURED A TYPICAL LISTENER TO LOOK LIKE.
And he's got a monkey on his shoulder.
Thom wants to be on the show - actually he wants a shot at co-hosting. Thom - Skype me, (my user name: jettloe), and we'll do a wee audition.
He's got the looks and the attitude Dear Listener - let's hope he has the pipes.
Man. Everyone wants a piece of my co-hosting action...AND he has a monkey. I can't compete with a MONKEY!

I know - it's tough to compete with a cute monkey - and Thom's got great teeth - maybe we can use him to boost the sex appeal of the show - a male equivalent of Miss X?
Stay tuned Dear Listener to find out what happens.

Dude,
WHERE did you find that link on my name? I haven't even read that . . . Bravo!
That picture was taken in the Dominican Republic by my wife on our honeymoon last October . . . the Monkey and I became fast friends, but our relationship was inhibited . . . I can't speak Spanish.

Oh man - you're ruinin' your chances of being the Male Miss X - we can't know you're married - gotta keep the hetrosexual female listeners hooked!
