A white sports talk producer in Philadelphia created a stereotypical black radio caller to get under the skin of a show’s host, and it went on for two years.

“Dwayne From Swedesboro,” a frequent caller to 97.5 “The Fanatic,” was a made-up caller created by producer Pat Egan, according to a Crossing Broad report. The fake personality would often call into host Mike Missanelli, with the shtick of going after white women and surviving paternity tests. He even created a Twitter profile for the persona, using the photo of a black friend, Nosike Onyemaobim, according to the report that was confirmed by Egan.

Most of the 97.5 staffers knew the caller was a fiction, except Missanelli. On the air, after the story broke, Missanelli said he actually met “Dwayne From Swedesboro” at the station once. However, that was apparently Onyemaobim — a hockey teammate of Egan’s, whom Crossing Broad tracked down through that roster then social media.

Egan has come clean, and said he expected people to “play the race card,” though he didn’t explain the rationale behind the decision to keep up the con, other than picking someone the exact opposite of himself.
