Earlier in his career, Crummey was a disc jockey at New York's WNBC and WAPP (where he briefly partnered on-air with Mark McEwen) in the 1980s, before moving to talk radio at stations in the West. He successfully presented his on-air personality in the general talk format. Incorporating, among other techniques touching a "bell hop" style bell sound when a caller, or news person made a good point or clever reference to something he had previously said, etc. For a brief era at KFI, he made use of a filtered mic to do a bit where if he were in the middle of discussing a personal dilemma, his logical and moral mind would "debate" on-air with "Evil Joe" his bad side who was telling him not to worry about doing the right thing. When he moved over to KABC from KFI, he jokingly referred to his former employers as "The Evil Station". His blog during his WABC New York stint was called "Evil Thoughts". From KFI he was hired away to KABC across town in Los Angeles, where he began to include the phrase "deeeal with it" in his commentaries directed at those who refused to recognize a certain point of view or fact. He found his way later to KFYI in Phoenix and also KTAR.
