Voice Therapy
In February 2006, Plaster began to experience difficulties with his voice, which soon became serious enough that he was forced to curtail his on-air activities. He began receiving voice therapy at Vanderbilt University's Voice Clinic. In April 2006, Plaster's participation in The Sports Zone was limited to online "cyberchat" on the station's website. On May 17 it was announced that Plaster would return to the airwaves on a limited, one-hour-per-day basis, effective with the May 19 show. He did so, conducting an interview with his good friend, former San Antonio Spurs, Chicago Bulls, and Vanderbilt University center (and current ESPN Radio basketball commentator) Will Perdue. In early June it was announced that he would begin to appear on the show for two hours daily. He eventually returned to his standard schedule of three hours daily (3p-6p).

Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or therapy:
“Reason is a faculty far larger than mere objective force. When either the political or the scientific discourse announces itself as the voice of reason, it is playing God, and should be spanked and stood in the corner.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“Show business is the best possible therapy for remorse.”
—Anita Loos (1888–1981)
