Lee Siegfried (born Lee Anthony Mroszak on December 11, 1968 in Minnesota), known by the on-air moniker Crazy Cabbie, is an American DJ. He broadcast on New York City's 92.3 K-Rock and is a former regular guest on The Howard Stern Show.
Mroszak previously worked for two radio stations in the Twin Cities, spending time as part of the 92 KQRS Morning Show. Mroszak was fired from KQRS after he faked a segment implying that Brett Favre was staying in a Minneapolis hotel with a woman other than his wife.
Mroszak began his radio career as a frequent caller known as "Cabbie" on The Andy Savage Show, airing on Minneapolis' 93.7 The Edge. When Howard Stern's show came to town, Mroszak moved to the KQRS Morning Show, the highest rated morning drive show in Minneapolis.
Mroszak raised his visibility at KQRS as a street reporter who took some listeners on a tour of the city's crack cocaine market. In one attempt to be outrageous, Mroszak did a "remote report" in which he claimed to have knocked on NFL star Brett Favre's hotel room door when the NFL's Green Bay Packers were in town for a Monday night game. Mroszak claimed that he intended to offer Favre some Vicodin and a six-pack of beer, but that he instead discovered the quarterback with a naked female who was not his wife. The report ended abruptly, but the press contacted the station for further information. Mroszak was forced into hiding, but eventually admitted that the story was completely fabricated. With his credibility shattered, Mroszak was fired by KQRS on December 3, 1997, and the station was sued by Favre.
Mroszak was not forgotten by old friend Cane (from his 93.7 The Edge days), who brought Mroszak to 92.3 K-Rock (WXRK) New York to produce his afternoon show. Mroszak used his new job to appear on The Howard Stern Show.
On The Howard Stern Show, Mroszak would often discuss his paratrooper service during Operation Desert Storm, events that occurred during his stint as a deejay for K-Rock radio, and the many bizarre incidents in his personal life.
