The impression I've had for years is that Dave would like to leave
after Jay does. If each wants to be the last man standing, it'll take
a network or a health issue to resolve.

I fully expect Dave to once again emulate his idol and stay off the
air when he retires.

I'm sure that if Ferguson went to 11:30, he'd do an 11:30 show. (The
Richie Sambora week worked pretty well.) Your guess is as good as mine
about whether or not that would be enough to pull in an audience.
