Radio Shakeup - 790 chooses Josh Innes over Adam Clanton

Isn't XM mostly national sports stuff? I have absolutely no interest in that for the most part unless its basketball

 

Yep. Garbage takes too. You would think guys that have been and around the business for that long would make them good at that job. Nope. Most of them are awful with very few exceptions.

 

Well, there's the SiriusXM NBA channel.

 

Yeah its alful. I got XM to listen to sports. It's guys who can't make it in local radio. I ended up only listening to O&A.

 

Fantasy football radio is the worse discussion radio. Hey bob, who do I start in my flex position? Thanks. I’ll hang up and listen. I don’t care about people’s fantasy team, much less my own. And I do play.

 

When I came back to the H from san antonio circa december 2004, Chance vouched for me and I was able to get an internship producing in studio for 610. Mashing up and editing interviews. I felt like I failed him as I retired 3 weeks in.
He was the first one to come up with the concept of podcasts in local sports radio and the first one to want to bring cameras into the studio but was deemed to0 radical, now they all do it.

I say all that to say...all those years and I still can't get into pod casts. It's like a reading a comic book digitally. I have to feel the pages but that's just me. Tired of these West End boys telling me baseball is boring and too long.

 

But you love the 20 minute commercial blocks for low T centers, home builders, and weight loss?

Podcasts still have the actual show... but you can listen to it in its entirety on your time, and skip through the awful promos.

Or you can listen to actual decently produced professional shows that talk in-depth on a variety of sports topics, Houston sports included.

 

I'm a weirdo like that. I'll usually flip to the breakfast club hip hop talk show during the breaks. I also enjoy to listen to baseball and futbol on the radio rather than to view it on television. & traditional Phone sex over sexting.

 

Podcasts tend to be amateur hour.

 

Podcasts of live shows are awesome

 

compared to what? I listen to tons of podcasts, but no sports ones. I can't imagine anything being worse than every buffoon on the radio. No one could be a bigger loser than someone like Josh Innes or a bigger douchebag than someone like LZ.

 

I guess you've never listened to a DaDakota podcast...

Look, I typically view sports talk as passive listening when I'm driving. I like some more than others. Personally, I like Clanton and Pendergast. Even Rich Lord, I'm good with. The rest? Again, passive listening or I'll switch to 95.7.

 

Dont waste time with the amateur ones then.

Either stick to the ones of live shows, or the other ones listened by literally millions of downloads every week.

AM radio has become the shitty version of the local news.

 

I tuned in to 790's new afternoon show a few times last week.

Each time they were talking extensively about food or pedicures.

 

Then why do you listen to the Fantasy Football channel?

 

I listen to the local guys on the radio, and they have segments for fantasy football. Or sometimes, they just call and ask for it.

 

Might be the only thing that makes me change the channel faster than Innes.

I did not know Josh had another weekend gig with CMB;

 

WOW. So Mad Radio today had a melt down today, between Mike and Seth. I believe it was in regards to Osuna.
Dude began yelling at Seth, and then stormed out of the studio and left the show while on air. (Seth stormed out after being yelled at over and over)

He yelled at Seth that he is unbearable (yelling thsi over and over and over) and stating that he is always like this and have to deal with him every day. Pretty rough.


EDIT: Meh...just noticed this was a 790 thread and not 610.....

 

The one morning I don't listen...but ya Seth's shtick is a bit much. Can see it really bearing down on someone morning after morning after morning.
