If you have listened to New Jersey 101.5 for more than 10 minutes, you will know exactly who Brad Benson is. He is this loudmouth egomaniac who torments our eardrums with his lame (oops, I mean gay) sense of humor trying to sell Hyundais. The second I hear him say "Hi" the radio shuts off.
 
At first I thought it was me, but when a customer of mine came in and heard the station playing in the background, he made mention of it too. Then I knew it wasn't just me. Does this station know it loses listeners because of this guy?
 
I guess the best way to describe this guy is to picture Rush Limbaugh doing a Hyundai ad on the radio. Similar sounding voice, and a similar big ego (if not worse). Then throw in some Billy Mays loudness, and you have Brad Benson.
 
 
Disclaimer: The fact that I hate his commercials is irrelevent to the fact that I hate Hyundais.

I hate his ads, too. Their BS about paying "30% off the dealer-posted price" is total BS. Do they think people are that stupid?!!

I'd say his ego is more Olbermanesque, dwarfing Limbaugh. I'm a Giants fan and I am pre-disposed to avoid criticiaing the ex-Giant.  The commercials suck, though.
