After a way too long hiatus, the Robio returns to pay tribute to three media legends he played as characters on the Imus in the Morning Program, all of whom, sadly, all passed away within three weeks.

Hear some of the better bits from Larry King, Larry Flynt, and Rush Limbaugh, then, as a bonus, Robio revives a classic serial from the WFAN Days, with an All-New Remake of ‘The Legend of Tres Huevos’. Multiple Yuks A...
