If you ever lived in Austin, Texas, there's a strong chance you had stumbled across John Aielli's radio program, Eklektikos, on KUT - the public radio station operated out of the University of Texas.
Aielli was famous for any number of idiosyncratic behaviors, and I swear to god, his show ran for what must have been 6-9 hours every day, Monday through Friday, for decades. Aielli seemed utterly disconnected from how the world worked both inside and outside his studio, breaking into the middle of songs to make a comment. Sometimes he'd stop a song and play a part over that he liked, or just take it off if he found it irritating. He made comments that were so random, he became internet famous when KUT launched @ShitJohnAiellieSays.
