A voice like a punchy snare drum with the top off, Russo’s delivery was all about that nasal, high-pitched bark-think a New York City cabbie who just spotted a pothole. His rapid-fire cadence and aggressive enunciation, often punctuated with a signature “Oh, my goodness!” or a wheezing laugh, made every rant feel like it was coming through a transistor radio on the verge of shorting out.

That manic, high-energy rasp he had, like a guy who just downed three espressos and is yelling at a Yankees game from the bleachers. The way he’d stretch out words into these dramatic, almost squeaky screams, especially on “guy” or “baby,” made him sound like he was perpetually on the verge of a heart attack.
