    RIP Toucher and Rich Show ... It was fun while it lasted

    Chad Finn's sense of humor is sometimes so dry, it would blow over with a hand wave. My experience with dumb people leads me to believe that they often take humor that they don't get as an intense personal insult, even if it wasn't intended that way at all. Like, if they detect that something...

    You didn't really miss anything. JMOH just hates poor people and won't eat their food.

    RIP Toucher and Rich Show ... It was fun while it lasted

    Much like Howard Stern or Rodney Dangerfield, Fred’s put-upon, working-schlub persona goes from endearing to insufferable the instant he starts punching down. That was true even in the Adolfo days, but Adolfo had an ability to hold his own, and to be his own personality, that could make ego...

    He's no Mike Behind the Mic Callahan, that's for sure.

    RIP Toucher and Rich Show ... It was fun while it lasted

    Yeah. I've been thinking about something mentioned upthread. I think Adolfo's departure has had a significant impact on the "morning zoo" aspects of the show. As terrible as he might have been at his essential job duties, Adolfo was a first-rate magnet for weirdos. Like, his ability to get...

    Hockey talk is definitely a ratings-killer when the people talking don't watch or care about hockey, and don't know anything about it.

    Yeah, I think Adolfo had a weirdo-magnet attribute that was valuable in his man-on-the-street role. Bird just goes out and talks to dudebro townies from Everett.

    Their ratings have been consistently phenomenal, irrespective of whether they happen to be ahead of or behind T&R in a given quarter. But ratings are not the ultimate measure of programming value, advertising dollars are. While great ratings certainly help attract sponsorship dollars...

    If the Boston Globe is/was actively protecting sexual harassers, then shining light on it is a good thing. Similarly, if K&C are saying things on-air that are offensive or worse, Shirley Leung is completely within her rights to shine a light on it and to call the people who are literally...

    And why settle for boring old vanilla when you can try fresh, hot human excrement! It's not like those other flavors!

    That's exactly what D&C did for years, after undergoing forced sensitivity training in the wake of the metco gorilla thing.

    Brady doesn't do these interviews because he values the platform to communicate with the fans and general public, he does them because there is a clause in his contract that says he has to. And that clause exists because WEEI pays money to the Patriots for the weekly interview. If Brady ever...

    Wow, that audio is something else. Even when trying to be decent, Minihane comes off as an insufferable mix of asshole, suckup, and soulless drama queen. Brady is talking slowly, obviously trying to control himself and compose his thoughts, and Minihane keeps interrupting and talking over him...

    Cutting The Cord on Cable/Satellite TV Service?

    Thanks for that! We are in the yellow on that map, in back of the Winsmith Mill art galleries and antique stores at the end of Endicott St, and I suspect their building is probably blocking easy reception for us. I could theoretically run an antenna and a wire up to the top of our 4-story...
