Summary
BT & Sal welcome legendary WFAN host Steve Somers to the studio to discuss his new book, Me Here, You There, available for pre-order on November 18th. The interview is fiery and deeply personal, covering his incredible career journey, from boxing three rounds with Muhammad Ali and watching the Immaculate Reception with John Madden, to his decades at WFAN. Somers reveals sensitive, never-before-heard stories about overcoming prostate cancer and his struggle with alcoholism (which led to a 30-day rehab stint) while working the overnight shift. He also offers honest, behind-the-scenes takes on his difficult midday pairing with Russ Salzberg and details his unlikely friendship and correspondence with Jerry Seinfeld, who wrote the book's foreword.
