Really depends on the nature of the prank and the humor of the talk show host.

Generally speaking most have little or no tolerence for those type calls.

Most talk shows have “professional screeners” that are adept at filtering out prank calls before they have a chance to reach the air. Don’t waste your breath. The only chance you might have is if the town you live in has a “dial-a-deal” program on Saturdays.

No. You’d never get past the screener who has been there and done that so many, many times before. Every year bringing a new crop of kids who think that the world is desparately waiting to be re-created according to the kid’s whim.

I don’t think you’d get in trouble if you prank called Howard Stern. Just don’t make any threats of violence.

No… because the radio stations just put their numbers out there and they will probably think it is funny

You will probably get laughed at and told to get lost.

Other people might get very annoyed however.
