''Humble & Fred'' is a Toronto-based Canadian radio show, featuring co-hosts "Humble" Howard Glassman and Fred Patterson, which has aired on a variety of Canadian radio stations since 1989. ==History== The program began in 1989 on CFNY-FM as a morning drive time show. In its initial format, Glassman was the sole host while Patterson was a sports anchor, although as the duo's comedic banter became an increasingly prominent feature of the show Patterson was eventually promoted to a full co-host. Glassman briefly left CFNY for CKFM-FM in May 1991, only to return 19 months later at the end of 1992.〔(An Interview with Humble Howard )〕〔(Spirit of Radio page for Humble Howard )〕 The duo remained with CFNY until 2001, when they moved to sister station Mojo 640 and were replaced on CFNY by Dean Blundell. They can be seen in the 2003 documentary film ''Flyerman'', which features footage of the duo broadcasting live to air at Mojo. The duo subsequently moved to CKFM (Mix 99.9) in August 2003. In August 2005, Patterson was relieved of his duties with Mix 99.9 (though he remained under contract), with struggling ratings cited as a factor in the station's decision to shake up the show. The show was rebilled as the Humble Howard morning show. However, in July 2006, the show was removed from the schedule and replaced temporarily by Steve Anthony. Mad Dog and Billie took over the slot on a permanent basis on August 8, 2006. When Patterson was released from the show, there was significant curiosity about the true story behind the occurrence. Glassman was not able to say anything on the air, but he did offer contact information for his personal BlackBerry and readily invited those curious to contact him for the actual story. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Humble & Fred」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
