Anyone who listens to the Fan makes me uncomfortable. Also Jake had a bad Texas football take on Twitter last night. 

Why? They've got done quality stuff here and there. With the insane amount if commercials on sports talk I don't see how most people wouldn't go back and forth.

  • And I did. Just because it's "the way it is" doesn't mean it's not disappointing when the time comes to accept that the business is the business. The Ticket is an incredible thing. There's a reas

Can't provide a link.  I work in media so I have a subscription (that my company pays a ton for). I'll pull a report and screenshot it on Monday if you really want proof. 

I wouldn't really need to reconcile anything.  I never said the Fan was beating the Ticket.  Only that they're catching them.  But the Fan leading in Tarrant County for M25-54 in Prime is 100% fact. 

Horn was let go at the end of March btw.

When I said reconcile, I'm genuinely interested.  I read Horn's article that was linked after I responded to your post doubting the numbers.  Your numbers purport much lower ratings for KTCK than what Horn reported, or maybe you were citing a specific demo or I just misread.  Thanks in advance.

Just heard the Koko call in this morning, that was hilarious. Also Junior actually made me laugh this morning when after asking Gorgo some questions about his news story. Gordo, as always, didn’t have any additional info on the story he reported so Junior sounding put out says “I’m so sick of you never knowing anything”. Lulz

What in all that is holy is going on with the segment of Jub's?  Jub plays sad songs from over 40 years ago?

That was terrible.

Nothing about John Prine is terrible. If you don’t get Prines greatness then I feel sorry for you. Go listen to some Drake and Katy Perry and maybe you will feel better...

Never said John Prine was terrible. I'm referring to Jub's segment and his constant need to force music he's into on to the listeners.

Here's a tip: Listen to the show.

So you don’t think they should ever do music segments?

Hey! They're doing another one now. Enjoy.

I reiterate my position that, other than segments making fun of songs (such as HL’s bro country segments) or those where they are doing commentary on the weekly shows coming up (concert calendar/biggest show), almost all “let me play you some songs from my iPod” segments are a waste of time (& a better segment they could have done in its place). The fact that they may occasionally hit on an artist or style that I might like doesn’t really change that. Also, that applies to 100% of Red Dirt Georgie’s “let me play you some music” segments these days.

Corby has never knocked anybody out or been in a fight in his life.  What the hell is he talking about.

Yea that was pretty funny. Mike and fill in Danny almost laid out on him. 

Damn I hate when the Musers go on vacation. Did anyone hear them say when they’re back and/or who is filling in for them?

I don't know what the fuck this thread is about but I can get behind radio personalities making fun of bro country.

 

That's all I got.

He kept going on and on how he would have knocked out that lunatic lady on the Spirit Airlines flight.  And he was serious about it.

Well, he is a TCU alum and Sooner fan. Hitting a woman fits the profile.

1000X better than Nose in the News. Team Jake

Trouble is that it comes along with my Ticket kryptonite, Sean Bass.

Do yourselves a favor and Google the Deadspin/Action Park story referred to in Jake's "Gordo's Corner" today. It's amazing. (It's also long as fuck.)

He walked it back but wow. His timeline is the ramblings of a nutbar. It's funny how he lashes out at others like Gordo or the DMN writer. Dude snorted away a seven figure job that he was barely qualified for. 

He’s crazy, he’s a loser, and he likes fat women. He is to be ignored. 

L4G with the Jub birthday smackdown.

threesheets doling our bullshit numbers then disappearing.

I was wondering why Junior hasn’t been crowing about their ratings lately

That's just Tarrant.  The Ticket is still the clear leader in that demo in Dallas, but the Fan is usually #3-4 and they're growing.  Oh and their cume audience is bigger than the Ticket's (DFW).

Like your mom, increased surface area does not equal a better lay.

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out when I argued that point. Did I say I was a P1?

Do you fanbois freak the fuck out anytime anyone suggests a competitor of something you like might be doing well?

KRLD has a better signal, thus more area to have listeners.

Better signal does not equal better programming.

Let me know if you want me to explain how ppm ratings work. Nielsen doesn't just look at geo coverage and estimate listenership. The ratings come people that are actually listening. 

Let me know if I need to tell you how long I worked in radio.

If you're mocking me that's fine, whatever. But if you actually did then please keep talking. Love to hear more of your thoughts. The ratings stuff has always fascinated me.

What, people that took the hint and listened to the show?

So, nobody on this thread.
