What Do You Say To That?
Westport Publishers, 1988

Taking its title from the tag line of Walt’s commentaries on KMBC, this book includes reminiscences on everything from talk shows to past presidents to the perfect malted milk.

A section titled, "Thoughts While Listening to Callers" contains this coded confession:
