No, the segment was great overall. Everyone just stepped out of the way and let Fred do his thing.
It was awesome. Irsay buying the ham sandwich that Mama Cass choked on and letting people taste it killed me.
Thought the same thing. It would have been perfect if he made a joke about failing a nicotine test.
If Wallach had any chops he would have used the opportunity to call Fred, in turn, a part-time morning show host. Alas, Wallach’s main comedic contribution to the show is his breathy “Jeezus” whenever he has nothing to add to a joke.
Yeah, I haven't listened to a Simmons podcast in months, but I put on his latest this morning. No need to subject myself to that lineup, life is too short.
I know a number of people who've essentially been sick for 4 months at this point. With all the crap going around people's immune systems seem to be just getting hammered one after another.
I like it in limited dosage. Thursdays 7-7:40 are perfect IMO. The first segment is just usual T&R with them in studio and then 10-15 min on gambling related issues. That's plenty for me, I know Fred feels the same way from what he's repeatedly said as well. I don't see gambling taking over T&R.
I don't know why, but for reason hearing him this morning touched a nerve. Was just like dude take a couple vitamins and try to get some cardio in 2-3 times a week.
The delusion to call up everyone after the show trying to get them fired is always hilarious to me as well. It's Jim Gray. Dude thinks he's Scott Van Pelt or something.
These have been going on for about a year at random points during fill in weekends, vacations etc. I'm shocked T&R just caught on to them now. They're usually a complete train wreck.
there was a story back when it happened that Grey didn’t know who they were and thought they were Dennis and Callahan and Minnihane and went on with an axe to grind I forget the exact details.
Oh I agree. I love this stuff the same way Fred does. It’s amazing radio.
I think they had said something during that season about Brady’s kid maybe? But yes I remember that speculation he just thought Boston radio meant those guys.
I believe the pics were Portnoy/Barstool. The comments about Brady's daughter being a pissant was from Alex Reimer who was part of the D & C show
Oh shit, I forgot about Reimer. That was definitely what it was. He was the absolute worst.
[Deleted. Clearly, the poor guy is dealing with a massive throat problem.]
I dunno, Fred is SUPER into the Celtics. I'm not sure that he'd be able to control himself after his favorite player Jayson Tatum did some slammajammahs.
