Dare's Name

Johnny Dare's name is NOT Elmore Liebowitz. Please quit editing his name to say that. That is not his name. His first name is John. His last name is Italian and starts with a C. He has said so on his radio show. Please stop illegally spamming his wiki page ! Think about this. Once Bread becomes toast, you can't make it back into bread.

Please stop editing this page to remove well known facts that I keep adding after someone who has too much time on their hands decides they don't like for no good reason. I listen to Johnny every day and know that I'm not wrong about what I put on his wiki page, so stop taking off what I put on. Please. I've been listening to Johnny for 15 years, so I think I know a little bit about what I add to the page.Think about this. Once Bread becomes toast, you can't make it back into bread. (talk) 01:47, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your say-so doesn't really cut it here, since this is supposed to be an encyclopedia article rather than a web page stuffed full of trivia. Unless a reliable source reported on an event or fact, we should be fairly skeptical about including it here. (ESkog)^(Talk) 02:03, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's not my sayso. It's Johnny's say so. I live in Independencce, MO and the show is broadcast from Kansas City. I listen to the show every morning and have listened to the show since the very beginning, (that's fifteen years !) so I think I know what I'm talking about. Obviously whoever keeps editing Johnny's page and putting in the obviously false and ridiculous "facts" and comments, has never listened to his show more than once. And as for "reliable source", wouldn't someone that's been listening to Johnny for 15 years and can tell you all sorts of facts about the people on the show be a reliable source ? What about Johnny's website or the radio station's website, or the numerous articles that can be found that are written about Johnny and the show ?Think about this.

For the last time, Johnny's real name is not Elmore Liebowitz. And it is not Edgar Maniweikicz, either. His last name STARTS WITH A C and is Italian. He has stated this more than once on his radio show. Please listen to the show for a while before you post blatantly retarded comments. Think about this.

Oh, but you don’t know the real name of his girlfriend. It’s Kaitlyn Johnson from Lawrence, KS. She’s on instagram as kaitnmiles. Just wanted to add this to the page. Dogdayz (talk) 18:03, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Johnny's Name

Johnny Dare's real last name is Caprapolli (spelling?). It would also be nice to see some sources for this page. I also have been listening to The Rock for several years, and I am a big fan. However, according to Wikipedia guidelines, the stations website, the shows website, and the observations of any number of fans ARE NOT credible sources.Natt the Hatt (talk) 21:53, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If a show's website and the station's website aren't considered credible sources by Wikipedia, then all tv show pages on wiki can't be credible sources either. Think about this. Once Bread becomes toast, you can't make it back into bread. (talk) 00:12, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The real name of his girlfriend is Kaitlyn Johnson from Lawrence, KS. She’s kaitnmiles on instagram. Dogdayz (talk) 18:06, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I’m being completely helpful by helping with the spelling of his last name... Caprefoli. Dogdayz (talk) 18:10, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Clean up

I've removed some POV statements in this article and tried to do a little clean up. There is a lot of work to be done here, especially finding better sources and removing personal research. After looking it over, this page could possibly be renamed "The Johnny Dare Morning Show" and a new page could be started about Johnny the person. Any constructive help would be appreciated.Natt the Hatt (talk) 21:53, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've added an infobox, as well as cut down on a LOT of unsourced trivia, original research, personal opinions, and what some may describe as "crap". I also removed a lot of extraneous and unrelated external links, in addition to rephrasing certain portions and adding wikilinks to others. The article has a long way to go, but we're off to a good start. We should try to find a picture of him to use for the infobox, and some sources to add to the article. It also might help to get a little info about his broadcasting background before he got the morning show. Rwiggum (^Talk/_Contrib) 23:20, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
