Well, you might find that there are indeed better babes to talk to. The ones with 1-900- numbers probably really are NOT cute, or smart. I prefer babes with the ability to discuss politics, or even sports.

Meanwhile, I hope you can repair your standing with the Mod, perhaps by taking a few good suggestions?????

They gave him a permanent ban...I hate bannanations...with few exceptions.
 
I don't know any of the people or shows you fanz mentioned, but I think it is good to have such a variety of viewpoints within the forum.

yeah, well, you and I both know there needs to be some kind of reasoned moderating. I checked around this site a bit and was actually surprized at the content. I didn't really expect to find some well-formulated opinions in here except on the Jazz subject, but this looks like one of the best all-around forums I've seen.

I like to see all the basic points of view represented by someone, and some outliers nobody could believe could ever exist except in a free country.

I think there have been some problems in here that actually need a serious Moderator to take a stand on. If it's consistently enforced it's gonna make an even better forum. Can you imagine NOT having a team of trolls just piling in on every thread with repeated diversions to shut it down??? No personal attacks??? No institutional programmed propaganda attempts to dominate the folks with real opinions????

Freedom of Speech is what has revived radio. I believe it can make a forum like this a popular public resource. With just a few rules to keep it civil.

BTW, I used to be a regular listener on Loveline, and expecially was impressed with how fast he could pick up on someone who was in an abusive relationship, and he could actually talk those callers through their issues and make some good sense all the way.

I do have to agree on the "reasoned moderating." I suppose if there is more than one and they aren't all chicks then there is chance it could happen. I too was a little surprized on the well-formulated opinion, although in general Jazz fanz have always been intelligent if somewhat crazed.

Hopper didn't seem like a propagandist and he gave others a chance to speak. His thread about NPR firing Juan was an example of his desire to have reasoned discussions. I guess he was just too much in other areas? Or there was some kind of clash going on I don't know about.

Radio is a great forum for your average Joe to get involved in public discussion and a great avenue for helping people...like that financial guy who helps people get out of debt, and Dr. Laura who helps people deal with moral issues, and Loveline to help people with relationship issues.

BTW the humor on here cracks me up.
 
I listen to DJ and PK, Jim Rome, Dan Patrick, Bill and Spence, Alema and Scotty G (Powerhouse), Tony Bruno, Mike and Mike in the Morning (only sometimes), The Scott Van Pelt Show, and a few more as well. I used to listen to the Radio from Hell Show, but they became annoying hacks so I dropped them for DJ and PK. I know, right?

I'm surprised that no one has said the Red and Blue show... Or whatever they call the Jan Jorgansen and Kyle Gunther show. LOL those two are hilarious homers. BYU should be playing in the national title according to Jan and Utah should be playing in the superbowl according to Kyle.

I especially like Kyle, who basically puts into voice everything that I imagine Salty saying.

Sounds like typical boosterism around here. Do you listen to the very partisan KSL gametime announcers covering BYU, or the equally partisan play by play on the Ute radio 700?

How about the morning program on KTKK with the former Utahn what'shisname doing the program from Minnesota or somewhere, and talking like he's a homer. He said everyone knows the air here is chlorine because you can see it's yellow color from the Bountiful bench. . . .
