There might be some sexual tension on Joe Piscopo[1]’s show on AM 970 the Answer when Carol Alt[2] co-hosts on Tuesday.

While both say they are just “good friends,” the two have gone out together several times in recent weeks.

“You better check with her,” Piscopo said. “I’m just honored to be in her presence. She’s way out of my league.”

Listeners might pick up some clues on Tuesday, the way “Morning Joe” viewers figured out Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski were secretly a couple long before they married.

“I’m still single,” the model told me. “Joe’s a good friend.”

Piscopo was more effusive, saying, “She’s great to be with. We have a lot of fun. She’s as grounded as a supermodel could be.”

After a recent date, as Piscopo was driving her home and they were chatting, he was entranced at a red light. Alt had to tell him, “Joe, the light is green.”
