No matter what else was going on.......I HAD to listen to James and Joel.

I wrote letters and sent emails complaining bitterly when they were off the air.

Yep, and even when James was on by himself he was great, but the two as a team were awesome. Joel Santistaban is still at WABC but James Golden is down in the EIB Southern command with Rush I think. James did leave EIB to be president of a internet talk radio station but alas the dotcom bubble popped.

I wrote letters too. I do not care about the ethnicity of a talk show host, except that when James was on, antagonistic black callers could not pull out the race card as easily. Plus I think the white audience appreciated not being called racist, bigot,etc.
