BT & Sal have WFAN legend Steve Somers live in studio to promote his new book, Me Here, You There: My Three Decades Overnight Under the Covers Schmoozing Sports as Captain Midnight for WFAN. The conversation quickly ignites as Somers reveals unbelievable stories from the book, including: Howard Cosell getting him suspended for criticizing Cosell as a "caricature of himself." Joan Rivers calling his overnight show to recommend a cleaning lady. The painful 1975 cruise vacation where his girlfriend left him for the table's waiter (his "ship of fools" moment). His shocking first meeting with Jerry Seinfeld in a bodega. The hosts praise Somers' "crazy" edge and undeniable talent, arguing he never needed Seinfeld's celebrity, even as he details the generous emails and foreword Seinfeld contributed to the book.
