Drew Peterson calls radio show to joke from jail

Drew Peterson has broadcast his trademark -- and seemingly inappropriate -- sense of humor live from jail.

The former cop, suspected in his third wife's death, called collect to WLS Radio's Mancow & Cassidy show on Wednesday and offered snippets of a comedy routine he's working on.

Peterson, who once proposed a "Win a Date With Drew" contest, offered a jail version called "Win a Conjugal Visit with Drew."

He also joked about prison showers, his legal fees and his "bling" handcuffs, saying humor is how he deals with stress.

Peterson is being held on $20 million bond on charges of first-degree murder in Kathleen Savio's death. He's also a suspect in his fourth wife Stacy Peterson's disappearance.

Peterson denies any wrongdoing.
