You're right, I do hate Jelly Ass, AKA Mike O'Meara.

There's no way in six hells Don is going back to Mike.
Like I said before, Don is actually a real talent when it comes to radio. Anybody who's heard the shows where he went soft and talked heartfelt about his childhood and his radio dreams would know this. He worked his ass off for what he has and honed a talent through years of experience.
Mike, I feel, just got lucky, time and again. Don saw potential, Don used him. Don knew how to run a tight ship and how to use everybody to their fullest. Yes, Freda's death ran the Don and Mike show short, but even if that tragedy didn't happen, I doubt that the show would still be around today, or at least, that Mike would be.
WJFK gave Mike a show based on Legacy, which was based on being used by a much more talented man. You look at Chad Dukes, even, and see that he stayed on past the flip, partly because he knows sports and partly because the guy, like Don, has a -real- radio drive.
In the end, Mike is a man who could do some funny voices, has a 5/10 sense of humor and got super lucky. He has/had no radio dream, he had no ambitions except to find a career where he can dick around and drink copious amounts.
Now you're there Mike. Too bad you've bought your own press so much that you've become a bloated, angry, egotistical, narcissistic, abusive fuckhead.
You should have counted your blessings after JFK let you go and faded into the limelight at the closest to the top you'd ever get.
