Deke sounds like a shitty Dusty Rhodes.

The amount of time those breaks last are a joke.

Unbelievable if so. This guy always sounds like he's got food in his mouth when coming back from break.

This and the constant mouse clicks in the background.
Welcome to the show caller, click click, uh huh, click click, yeah, click click click, then some condescending comment...
Drives me nuts!

I believe he is employed by Fox 8 and the New Orleans Saints(as the play by play commentator).

its really amazing that Deke fricking Bellavia has reigned as (fwiw) the king of NOLA sports radio for over 10 years

Yeah I am pretty down on talk radio as a whole lately - I don't really even like Howard Stern very much anymore - it's all so stale. I like the hell out of Zach Lowe and Bill Simmons and Behind the Bets podcasts - I think this "on demand" quality content stuff (even if it's not about your team specifically) is the way audio entertainment is going.
WWL would be better off paying the BSS guys $150 per podcast hour and just airing that for the entire evening between breaks IMO. Have them do one per week for the Saints as well. Cut Deke to 3 nights per week with his shite show.

What's pathetic is when a caller who is somewhat educated (not like the usual bunch) calls in and is trying to say something and Bobby keeps cutting him off, "But Yeah but but Yeah listen listen..." How a caller hasn't said "Would you shut the f$&k up and let me finish my statement first" is beyond me.

Agreed.
They cut people off when they don't have food in their mouth and then berate them.
It's a joke.

People who don't get outside of New Orleans much don't always realize how utterly ridiculous and bad the Saints' and WWL's local radio presence is, compared to other teams in other markets around the league. Deke and/or Hokie would not last a month on radio in any other pro team American city besides NO, he'd be fired for not knowing anything about his subject, never mind the eating. I mean we all like to make fun of guys like Paul "this is not Detroit" Allen's radio calls, but at least in Minnesota if you tune in they are professional and sound like real people on the radio talking about their team.
I once dated a girl originally from Buffalo and I spent a couple of visits up there listening to local Bills radio, a decade or so ago, during the week and game days, and even though it was the effing Bills, it was literally TEN ZILLION TIMES better than the broadcasts we have here. Other than Jim Hen, this town has nothing on the dial that is even remotely professional or NFL-worthy caliber. It's sad.

The 45 minutes I spent in a car in DC listening to Redskins radio made me realize how terrible our entire radio presence. Deke would not have made it onto their show as a caller, much less a host.

I agree. Perfect entertainment for the ride home from work! The call ins make my day!

I wonder if the Saints (Payton) implicitly prefer numbnuts like Deke and Bobby who would never use their platform to question things in a thoughtful, harmful manner. Better to have a good ole baw like Deke talkin bout dumb things rather than to have a sabermetrics type like Barnwell break down second by second why Payton killed us by not taking his TO's properly in the Bucs game.
If you got an educated host he could eviscerate Payton's gamemanagement skills over the past couple of seasons. He gets pissed and dislikes journalists who poke too aggressively or work too much on scoops (Kenny Wilkerson, some of the TP guys, etc.)
