Johnny Carmelow joins us right now on the Circus Sports Illinois Hotline.

You might know him as Jason Benetti.

Hello, Jason.

Hi, Speigs. How you doing?

Oh, man. It's an honor to get to sit here and just try to get people to talk about Terry Boers.

What a brilliant, bizarre, funny, wonderful man.

Man, it's like your favorite restaurant closing.

Like, the community just isn't going to be right.

Like, and you're going to have these recipes that just go away.

And it's the coolest part about it, about what Terry's legacy was, is like, we really, in this day and age, after listening to a bunch of clips the past couple days, I just went down a rabbit hole and was remembering.

But his sense of justice within 10 seconds could be fervent and fiery and, like like craze that he just calls somebody a dope.

You know, like it.

And you felt it.

And you felt it.

It was real.

And then suddenly like 10 seconds later, he'd be like self-deprecating or by cracking his way into a break.

And I just, the range that he had for like a, you know, a newspaper man, right?

Like, he just was such an unbelievable entertainer and could so quickly go from a very real sense of what was right and who was a dope to just laughing

that's sort of like wheezing, herniated, hilarious, my knee hurts laugh.

And I can hear all of it in my head right now.

That's amazing.

And coming from you, it's impactful to notice that range.
