How long will it take for Johnny Mac to implode? Someone has to roll tape on these ...

Johnny Mac will be fine. I want more Steph, myself.

Was she the right-wing nutjob on with Boomer last week?
 
Steph Miller? Yes.

The annoying broad who was on with Boomer on the radio last week? She was greatly annoying.

None of the fill-ins thus far have been remotely entertaining. It is downright putrid morning radio. It is almost as though they can't settle on a format.

They have Charles providing news. They have Carlin doing sports. In between they have a host talking about something and it is as though they just can't decide what they should talk about.

What they should do is just have George Carlin do a morning sports talk show and leave it at that. Get rid of the news portion.

They're keeping McCord around for when Imus returns in six months.
 
No, what they need to do is leverage the MSNBC franchise by giving KO a two-hour broadcast taped the night before after his TV show.

A tape-delayed Olbermann is better than any of the schlock they have on now -- and I say that as a dyed-in-the-wool Stephanie Miller radio show fan.

Get Sirius and listen to Stern.

I do not consider that an improvement.


Then you haven't listened recently. I don't have any interest in him interviewing porn stars or that kind of stuff, even though he does it a lot... The show banter between the regulars is the best ever and he may be the best interviewer ever when talking to celebrities.

He will cut through the BS when interviewing. Wish he did more interviewing of celebs.

His show hit a big-time rut there for several years after he got divorced and after Jackie left, and before he hopped to Sirius.

I thought the show got better after Jackie left.

Artie's too much of a fanboy. It'd be like putting Suzyn Waldman on the Yankees broadcasts.

The best part of that show is when they bust on each other. The incident this morning involving Sal the Stockbroker and Richard Christy was mindblowing.
