Snerdly is a nickname that Rush made up and gave to his call screeners during the early years of his national show. There were actually several Snerdlys. If I remember correctly, the longest running of these was Bo Snerdly (real name James Golden). In the early days of internet radio, Golden left Rush's show to do his own internet talk show. However, this only lasted for about a year before the company folded up. Since this time Golden has rejoined Rush's support team as the "Official Program Observer". I don't really know what this job entails. Any way, when you here Rush refer to Bo Snerdly or Mr. Snerdly on his show, this is who he is talking about.

Update 9/4/2009
Since I originally wrote this answer. Bo has returned to the position of call screener for Rush's show.

I believe the orignal was “Melva Snerdley”, who wanted to keep her real name secret. From there, the tradition flowed.
