message: It seems inconsistent to me that Greaseman's show content has been deleted.  Many other pages feature descirptions of entertainer's content, for example, Jay Leno or Liberace.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smelldog (talk • contribs) 17:30, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Greaseman also used to do this bit about his theoretically pompous neighbors in the upscale Foxhall road area. I doubt he really lived on Foxhall road (or in DC at all), but there was a guy that regularly called in with a fake british accent claiming to be his neighbor. The neighbor invariably complained that G'mans dog had soiled his lawn. At one of G'mans live public shows at the Bayou, he said an anonymous listener called in and started doing this bit. It caught on and was a one of the few bits that was not a monologue. Anyone remember that bit or know who the mystery listener was? Madhu 00:23, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I used to see Grease at the Sutton Place Gourmet near Foxhall. Perhaps he did live there. Sfahey 16:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

text: Those were the "RJ calls" listed in the article page. I'm glad someone else remembers; the mystery listener was a Dundalk/Baltimore native, just a regular guy with no entertainment background. He's my dad. 23:14, 02 March 2007
I actually met Mr. Tracht today.  If he ever did live in the Foxhall Road area of Northwest Washington, D.C. (which is possible, as I believe that his radio contracts when he worked there were quite lucrative) I can report that he no longer does.  He told me where he lives, but I won't post it here, the man has a right to his privacy. CrashRiley (talk) 21:53, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Hey Sfahey, that is not a sawing wood sound, that is a squeaking bedspring sound.  You are hearing it wrong.  Sawing wood wouldn't make any sense there, anyway. 128.244.110.203 11:47, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I thought the music from "Tuna Fish" comes from Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 11 in A major, K. 331  Piano Sonata No. 11, the third movement, "Alla Turca", aka the "Turkish Rondo"

message: I just reverted edits by User:Starbucksinstant, who seems determined to remove any negative information about the Greaseman. He blathers on about "this isn't true", but provides no sources that support his claims, while the passages he deletes are well sourced. If this continues, we may need more protection for this article. Mgrē@sŏn 02:37, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

message: The working stiffs, you know, not gov workers but people who actually sweat and made wash dc happen: loved greaseman.
He was a excellent joker.  Telling as many jokes as he did and to get people talking: you can bet some were a little on the outrageous side.  He has NOTHING to apologize for for being funny.  Infact he was stalked, still, by competitors and communist types...
"The Washington Post noted that he was the highest paid DJ in D.C. during 1987, making $400,000 a year.[6]
Syndication.  His show was syndicated by Infinity Broadcasting Corporation"
Yes.  The Washington Post is well known to be communist sympathizers, very liberal, sometimes run by foreigners, with business interests aligned to defame and stalk any media or politics not affiliated with them.
It's not Greaseman who had a bad show.  He was in a bad area: the washington area of hostile takeovers and backroom deals.
Just a small example.  There were car salvation donations in the area run by Salvation Army.  Radio and news blasted them for be illegal donation scam, but they weren't!  Not long after "wash dc" forced them out of business... guess what?  Now a New Jersey company is doing the exact same thing.  Difference?  Financial affiliation.
Listen to the Greaseman.  Washington isn't run by americans is mostly run by foreigners with foreign affiliations.
Greaseman.  no apology please.  wash is too dirty to ask you for an apology.  far dirtyier than a few dirty jokes people laughed hard at!

message: Would someone be interested in adding content about how Grease attempted body slam Big John Studd at the first Wrestlemania? That might have been his largest national media exposure, but I don't see it mentioned here.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.174.135.224 (talk) 03:44, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

message: Something may be wrong with the WWDC hiring dates re the wiki pages of either Tracht or Stern or both.  We know for a fact both of them worked for WWDC (DC 101), but I don't recall their employment at WWDC overlapping.  According to this page, Tracht was hired by WWDC in 1982, and according to the Stern wiki page, Stern worked for WWDC from 1981 to 1985. Mark The Droner (talk) 11:59, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
