Where is this rumor about Bob coming from?
It’s pretty much a given that Jake is gonna move to the Hardline.

I think it'll just be Bob moving. Otherwise I don't think Corby would have tweeted out the teaser the other day.

"Confirmed by a good friend of Bob's", yep checks out.

A clear misdirection. Again, if they’re being demoted, Corby doesn’t tweet basically “ha ha, we know something you don’t know...”

Bob isn’t going anywhere.
Jake is going to afternoons and they are changing the show name. That’s all that is happening.

I find it interesting that some of you seem to think Bob never bullshits on BaD Radio and was 100% serious sports. I think if he can get Corby to try again, it might work very well. 

I don't think anyone thinks Bob never bullshits and is 100% serious sports.  He just leans way more that way than he does a yuck monkey.  Which is why he got paired with Corby who leans way more yuck monkey.  And I agree...I bet it works pretty well.

I find it interesting that some people actually thought Jake was ready for prime time.  He did a pretty good job during Super Bowl week and even started to grow on me a little from time-to-time, but a permanent Jake & Snake show for afternoon drive would have been a fucking disaster.

george has been sick since christmas and is out again today with fever and chills.  he’s got the coo-rona. 

I’ll suspect he’s acquired an immune deficiency from inhaling too much red dirt.

Randy rogers should probably go get himself checked out before things start falling off on the man.

I still hate breaking up bad radio but I’m willing to give this a shot. Bob is my favorite sports guy in radio and I like Jake enough to give him time with Dan, they already get along great.

Nobody envisioned them breaking up BaD radio. The pairing of Jake with Corby was more or less resignation that Corby, for some ungodly reason was going to be permanently fixated in drive time. The Ticket just blew up their best show by far and most us of here didn't think that was an option.

They alluded to the fact that Corby does dick for show prep when they said Bob passed him in the hall and said see you tomorrow- what time do you usually get here? 2:45?

I am really really really interested to see what happens if Corby does prep. 

We know Bob is going to be prepared...and I think Corby, if he does prep, can be a fantastic co-host.

Then again there is a non zero chance that Corby gets choked out by Bob in the next 3 months

Here is my HSO...Mike is going to set up a podcast “station” or whathaveyou....and slowly the entire band will get back together. Cut out the corporate overlords, go rated R on content. Profit. 
 

He aint done. Lots of fight left in the old grey wolf. 

he is going to have to actually prep and do work for that to do well. way too many competitors in that space to half-ass it...legend or not. 

then again if he does a monthly or weekly podcast (say 2 hours of "air time" vs 20 hours of "air time" a week) or it is on topics he cares about maybe it can do quite well.

One upside is Bob will have no issues calling out Corby's dual fandom. 

Did whatever consulting company they used to make recent decisions tell them we needed more Fernando?

I love when they retell the story of George sucking up to Randy Rogers who was wanting to let everyone know that one of the guys in the band just got a mortgage.

This is what I don't get. How was everyone up there ok with the fact that Corby just didnt do shit to prepare for his job? Why wasn't his prime position in drive time radio ever in doubt? Perusing through twitter it's an open secret about his lack of care for the job he's held for the last 13 years.

Because the ratings were fine until recently.

I think it's because he's been there since year 1. Even now when the ratings have gone to shit they aren't moving his terrible radio ass to 10-noon (or better 7-11) where he belongs probably because he's made strong relationships there and they're protecting him. They moved the most well prepared host there in an attempt to babysit him. It'll be interesting to see what happens if Hardline ratings stay in the shitter. 

From the Athletic piece:

One difference for McDowell in going from hosting with Sturm to Kemp is the age gap. While the 50-year-old McDowell was just three years Sturm’s senior, he is 16 years older than Kemp. That part of the equation is just a prayer answered.

“I’ve prayed for a new, young wife, but I didn’t specify my home wife,” McDowell said. “Apparently, my prayers were answered for my work wife. I’m looking forward to it.”

 

Dan is the best

And Jake continues the run sheet which is nice for deciding if a segment can be skipped.

If only Jake had eaten all three pizzas...

This is just awful.  Flat out awful.

Just like every time Bob was off in other countries searching for kids to christianize any time it was just Dan and Jake it was like eating a pizza with no marinara sauce. It looks very similar and when you pick it up it feels similar, but at first bite it's clear something is missing. This isn't bad but it's unfulfilling

So an hour in and your mind is made up?  I haven't listened (nor do I really ever get to listen during this time slot) but I don't think you can really judge until you've given them a few months to get the right chemistry.

Ha. Yeah, 1 hour in and THIS IS FAILED (/Greggo)! Let's also go ahead and PRE-say that Bob and Snake will fail also. 

Give it a few shows before you completely write it off. 

3 segments is a pretty good sample size. 

The Bob and Corby Extravaganza is completely new and needs a chance but Dan and Jake we've seen a ton for years every time Bob was out. It's going to be the same as it's been before. It's always been just ok

I'll never get tired of Bob replying to Corby making some fanboy comment about OU with "when did you graduate from OU again?"

Are certain P1 posters on here already contemplating hiring a pane to fly the “Not Our Standard” banner outside of Ticketstock?!?

Who gets Joel Klatt in the divorce? Bob can definitely have Tyler Seguin and LVE.

^ Exhibit A of why people should never base any real life shit solely on what they read on Surly.

Segin needs to stay with Dan. He always gives Dan shit for his Canada questions. Also hockey players always do mid day shows since they have games in the evening.

I think one real benefit of the BaD split is that Kid and Computer may be gone from the Ticket forever

I'm afraid you might be right.  Dan doesn't really know shit about shit...because...he just doesn't give a shit.  Jake has never known shit...outside of sports.  This might be a train wreck.

BUT...this slot is pretty much worthless and they can always change it.  The evening drive slot is all they really care about IF they got it right or not.

One thing that Dan has to look forward to is to not get totally dominated in the paint during a segment while Bob barely allows him to get a word in edgewise. 

Klatt has got to follow Bob. That may be the only sports related segment I listen to on the whole show. Plus, Klatt will clown Corby regularly. 

It ain't great but it ain't terrible. Going to take a while to get things sorted out and build chemistry

taking a break from conference calls to say that anytime craig tells a story about his childhood, i immediately want to kill myself.

I, for one, am excited about Jake and Dan.

Hopefully Computer is the odd man out here and nobody gets him.
