It would be good if Meat himself could phone him. If he did I bet he would soon change his opinion n probably be telling him how good n successful he is.

The DJ might change his tune for 5 minutes, but it wouldn't last
Last April one of them told me arrogantly that if Meat Loaf himslf phoned and requested CHSIB he'd consider playing it .. well, bless his cotton socks, Meat DID! .. The DJ was suitably ingratiating .. played CHSIB, asked Meat if he'd come into the studio for an interview when he was IN Sheffield on tour (appearing at the Arena which bears the radio station's name!)
Meat said you keep playing the record Nick and I will .. but have they played it since? No .. they have refused. Nick even said "I played it when Meat phoned in .. what more do you want?"
As Ace said, they say these things to get people to phone in .. don't give them the satisfaction of having outrageous comments have the desired effect. It's rewarding bad behaviour, and unless you're representative of and influential on their "target" audience they probably don't care.
Mind you .. I'd love to be able to tell Nick that Meat was going into the studio of a rival radio station for an interview .. :)
