Considered an eccentric, he promotes a variety of personal interests using his media outlets. One of his most legendary stories involved John Lennon and Yoko Ono. He and his son were staying in London when they heard “Come Together” by The Beatles.

The two conducted a series of interviews which was eventually broadcast to his Canadian radio stations.
