At least he stopped angling his headphones on his forehead to hide the hairline like he did for years.
The fact that no one in the room ever called him out on it made it difficult for me to believe they were ever anything more than posers, the entire lot of them.
He did? Do you remember around when? I used to listen to Stern religiously and kept waiting for someone to call Benjy out on it, never happened. However, I haven't listened in half a decade.
I think I remember Fred saying something like that, but I've never heard anyone on the show specifically call Benjy out for using his headphones to hide his baldness. Not even on the Wrap-Up show. I would have liked to see him put on the spot about it and have to explain it in his own words.
Howard tried to untangle himself from the "Benjy Vortex" as
the show buzzed to life on Wednesday, explaining to Robin
that he was parrying political questions from Benjy.
Instead of playing into Benjy's schtick, Howard noted
that he was fascinated by how the balding staffer had
positioned his headphones in the perfect way as if to make
it look like he actually had a hairline.
"It's a headphone toupee," Fred added as a matter of fact.

Their both bald with camera angles pointed downward. It's not rocket science, their genuinely embarassed so they made a quirk out of it.
Like fat guys with the chin strap, it "hides" the double chin

Fred called him out once. Said he "wears his headphones in a retarded fashion."

A "headphone toupee" is pretty direct, I stand corrected. Got the air date? I'm curious to see how he reacts to being directly confronted about it.
