  Tom Leykis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As a teenager in 1970, Leykis won a contest for a one-time radio appearance on a station in Long Island, and he was asked back several times to serve as a fill-in host.
Leykis believes men in their 20s are particularly susceptible to the "pregnancy trap" and continually emphasises that they take responsibility for themselves and always wear a condom.
Leykis emphasizes that the "Leykis 101 course" that he teaches is designed for people not looking for a serious, monogamous relationship, but rather for those who wish to remain independent and unattached, and to understand the difference.

 NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Tom Leykis
Leykis 101 is a series of tenets developed and promulgated by US radio personality Tom Leykis designed to teach male listeners how to achieve the most sex within the least amount of time, effort and money.
Tom Leykis (born August 1, 1956 in New York, New York) is a radio talk show host, syndicated nationally and internationally (USA and formerly in Canada) by Westwood One.
Leykis, 48, is known for blunt talk on gender issues and for naming such individuals as the woman accusing Kobe Bryant of rape, a woman who tried to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge in Seattle, and the boy raped by teacher Mary Kay Letourneau when he was 13.

 The Seattle Times: Local News: Shock jock Tom Leykis says he was attacked in Seattle
Tom Leykis said his injury required 17 stitches.
Seattle police records provide more detail: According to Leykis and a witness with him, he was "not feeling well" when one of the alleged assailants photographed him outside the Five Point bar and went back inside to show the photo to two other men.
Leykis routinely does shows in which he only takes calls from listeners who hate him, takes on callers in "Ask the Atheist" segments, and has singled out Seattle men as the world's biggest wimps.

 Nancy Powell on The Tom Leykis Show
Tom (interrupting): Nowhere in the laws of this country does it say that you have to submit to a deity to be an American.
Tom: A discriminatory religious organization wants to come into the schools (and has been doing it for a long time), and recruit kids, then tells certain kids they can't be in.
Tom: Oh, but you just said, you just said it's wrong to tell your kid, "Hey, we're atheists in this house," and to have him behave as an atheist, but if your kids are Jewish or Lutheran (or you are), it's okay to shove your religion down their throat.

 Leykis or Not - Leykis 101 Rules   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Leykis asserts, as a matter of convenience to his students, that if a woman doesn't have sex with them by their third date, it means she has no intention of ever doing so.
Leykis believes if a woman deems a 101 student unimportant enough that she feels comfortable answering her cell phone during the date, she is not sufficiently interested in having sex with the man. Leaving immediately, he advises, would save the man a good deal of money.
Leykis claims that a woman will try to test a man, trying to focus his attention on her and, he believes, there's a good chance that sex might be part of the attention-getting hunt.

 Marsden: The Tom Leykis Fiasco and the Canadian Free Speech Fallacy
Leykis hit the mainstream Vancouver press when he offered to donate $100,000 American from his personal bank account to a local TV newscaster's charity of choice--if only she would come to a Leykis listener party and allow him to autograph her bare breasts.
Either way, Leykis undeniably dominates his target demographic, and is as hugely popular in the Vancouver, BC market as he is anywhere else that his show has aired.
It appears that Leykis has offended some overly-sensitive Canadians who are hell-bent on imposing political correctness on the rest of the country at the expense of freedom of speech--whether we like it or not.

Depending on who you ask, syndicated radio personality Tom Leykis is either a breath of fresh air or a foul defender of the male libido.
As opposed to other shows which lean heavily on sidekicks, in-studio guests and prerecorded gags, Leykis works virtually alone during his four-hour show, interacting with callers and moving at a pace faster than a hooker at a frat party.

 "Tom Leykis: Not Really a Surprise" by Ira Simmons   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Leykis likes to begin each hour of his show by proclaiming that he is not ''a right-wing wacko'' or a ''convicted felon,'' an obvious reference to Rush Limbaugh and G. Gordon Liddy.
Leykis also charged that her husband pushed her head into a brick fireplace in the bedroom, grabbed her, and threatened to kill her.
So given his faltering career and checkered past, it was really not that surprising that it was Tom Leykis who broke a voluntary media boycott by revealing the name of the woman who has accused Kobe Bryant of sexual assault.
