1360AM off the air Jan.1

Looks like BDH and his gang will be Internet only for 2010. No matter what he says, that has got to be a kick in the nuts to him. What happen to Hunter being syndicated through Rick Dees or something? I blame it on Greggo.

 

[Bogart]

And while Big **** Hunter is fartin' around on Interwebs.....

Greggo is back on the AIR, brutha!!!!!

In Wichita Falls and Amarillo.

 

[Urinal Mint]

He'll fit in with all the meth-heads in that part of the world.

That was certainly an epic meltdown this AM

about 5-8 minutes of random music with Ty Walker trying to vamp. The whole setup in Miami took a dump and the Musers had to resort to doing the show from cell phones.

Thank god the Nestor thing is over.

NFL said any contact between the two stations would result in a permaban for both of them.There are some rumors that WSNT is basically out of money and is going to shut down very soon anyways. Nestor himself is off the air after this week ostensibly to try to find another job in the market.

Traffic Chick Barb, what happened to her?

Traffic Chick Barb, what happened to her?

Canned a long while back. She was god awful at her job. That is, when she found it worthwhile to show up.

 

[Statcruncher]

"You're having I'm Arby's" ranks right up there with "Do you like your job?" and "we're having fun here, no?".

Listening to the Musers interview of Joe Montana right now and Joe is boooorrringggg.

By contrast BaD radio's interview with Bobby Hebert yesterday was gold. He was funny and insightful. Seems like he would be a fun guy to hang with.

Having to hit the interview circuit like that has to be a real beating

I wonder what it pays. I mean if I wanted to have Joe Montana push my line of crap what would it run me? 100k? More? What's the rate for some spare?

Funny thing was that Montana called in. He wasn't even in Miami. I tuned out near the end but he said something about his plane will not be landing (assuming in MIami) until somewhere near the end of the first quarter. Joe was a dolt - I'm just sayin...

Actually he said his plane would be landing FROM Miami in the middle of the 1st quarter.

Even better...I guess I feel for the musers because that interview was pretty bad and they were really kissing his ###.

It is good. Some really weird #### at times, but most of the time, it's listenable stuff.

Me too. And some of the low-key hosts still make me giggle. Love the "UnderCurrents" ad they roll during drive-time. Really makes me want to... you know, sit back and roll a joint while he takes me on a deep musical journey man.

The hosts are greatness! My wife cracks up when I do my "Under Currents" guy (and, really, all of their DJs) impression.

Have you worked Gregg McVicar's special message into your routine?"North Texas, you're giving birth..."

 

[Urinal Mint]

I thought I was the only one both creeped out and oddly intrigued by the Undercurrents ad.

 

[Urinal Mint]

Old news, probably.

Playmaker is out at ESPN and likely NFL Net

Newest 103.3 lambs to the slaughter... Ben & Skin

 

[Urinal Mint]

Wonder if Fredo will be producing them?

I turned over there to see how tense it was today. Got a giggle out of hearing them back on the air breaking down the finer points of the 11th and 12th man off the bench for the mavs.

 

[Nigel Tufnel]

This have to do with the rape allegation?

 

[culdeus]

doubtful. This was probably the plan all along. Irvin when football is not running is just horrific. His ratings are semi-ok when football was going on. They probably put BNS on this week to give them a little boost to transition the brothers to the new guys talking hoops.

 

[The Hardline]

Personally don't mind Ben and Skin. Anything is better than Irvin especially when the Big Fella was on the show with him. Neither of them made any sense.

I like Ben and Skin. I will be much more likely to switch over to ESPN now.

 

[Urinal Mint]

I've quit listening to ESPN. They suffer from having too many effing people on at one time. I can't stand Galloway's show anymore because Galloway is hardly on it. Mosley and Dennis come off as wannabe Bayless'es

I hope the Ticket understands what kind of gold they found in Bob Sturm. In the last 2 years he has really (IMO) become the backbone at that station.

Truly agree. But it is too bad that Sturm is teamed with Dan. Dan is more the yuck monkey that Donovan is.Dan really knows very little about sports and just spends his time trying to be clever and sarcastic. Maybe it works but I think Sturm has to be internally rolling his eyes at Dan.

Dan makes that show unlistenable for me.Not only does he know very little about sports, but he knows very little about anything at all. It's like listening to a 40 year old speak with the knowledge of a 9 year old, but I guess there must be a market for that.

 

[culdeus]

Greggo now has a show on 97.1 . I have no details at all on this.

I find it somewhat interesting that they cut Donovan's air time from 15/hour to closer to 6/hour quietly over the past 6 months. Of all the on-air talent he has the least air by an order of magnitude now. Basick has more air than Donvan at this point.Dan doesn't bother me that much. I think he sort of gets on Bob for sometimes going too much by his charts and graphs.

Had not noticed this about Donovan (usually have my meetings during the midday hours) but it is good insight. I have always felt that they push Donovan a little too much. His schtick is more for music radio than sports radio. And his pairing with Norm for the post game show is awkward to listen to sometimes. Not to say I don't like Donovan but just seems like an odd fit for the Ticket. The one thing that is a little funny is giving Donovan older predominantly white bread movies to watch and report on - it's a giggle now and then.

I'm guessing the moratorium on Greggo drops ended some time ago, too, judging by what Grubes is dealing out these days during e-news.

The only thing I bet he's even been paid more than expenses was his stint on ESPN.

I listend to The Ticket online via their website from work and it seems whenever I go the Ticket's website it seems like loads slower than any other website on earth. Do any of you experience this? Whenver the page tries to load, it comes in slowly starting with the pics of the members of the show that is currently on and then everything else eventually catches up. IT takes up to 10 seconds sometimes. If so, do you have any idea why this happens?

I guess it could be that they are "Cumulus the Power of Radio" and not Cumulus the Power of the Internets.
