Summary

In this edition of The Best of the Last Year of Radio, the energy is off the rails. Theo Von calls into the Opie show from an airplane for the sole purpose of roasting Chris Distefano, leading to a legendary back-and-forth you have to hear to believe. Plus, Chris tells the wild story of the time his father forced him to "play disabled" at age 12 just to snag better seats at a Yankees game. We also look back at the late, great Carl Ruiz sharing his hilariously unfiltered take on attending the Kentucky Derby. 5/8
