So, what music are you listening to now?

A stroke too? I remember that he had a serious motorcycle(?) crash that took him off the air for... damn.... I think a couple of years. (I wonder whether there's a connection.) He came back and was as sharp as ever but his speech was very slow and slurred. As you say, he has an incredibly broad and deep knowledge of music (as did Weasel).

I'm sure that being the station owner's son helped Damian to keep his job. Nepotism has its place and that would be a prime example, IMO. What a gift that station was!
