Why do so many board members dislike him?

He's an easy target. I think he's pretty good at his job. And having listened to other SEC school's cities' radio personalities, Baton Rouge is spoiled for good radio sports shows.

He has terrible takes and gets upset when people tell him he’s wrong.

I like him. At the same time, I can acknowledge he's kind of a pompous douche. We all have our flaws though

I used to really enjoy his show. Now it has become too much let’s talk about how I was right but never acknowledge when I’m wrong. It also seems like he doesn’t prep as much as he used to. Way more dead air, fake laughs, and repetition to get through segments. 104.5 is still great compared to other markets but can be hard to listen to at times. Josh Pate and Chuck Oliver get more of my attention now.

fricking loudmouth obnoxious screaming at stupid shite. At the same time, you have T-Bob with his unlistenable shite. The only radio guy I can listen to is Hunt Palmer only because I am more of a baseball guy than football.

For me it is that he just comes off as trying to be the cool kid way too hard. The whole bourbon snobbery, always dropped names, etc.

That said, he is pretty good at doing a radio show and obviously a hard worker. Maybe just not try so hard to be liked.

He made friends with big wigs because of his job. He was never the “cool kid” but now he has the platform and feels “cool”. I’m 2 years older than the dude and choose to buy tractors over Nikes…but to each their own

He is cocky and thinks he is always right. I only listen to him for the interviews. He is much less of an arse because he can’t be an arse to the people he is interviewing.

When I became a fan of scone he was producing for Condon.

I loved it bc Condon was a blowhard who had bad takes and scone was always there to make him look stupid with good takes.


Then he got a show with that dumb arse kid who was the son of a radio guy and that douche had double takes and yet again scone was there with the good takes ..

And now it's just scone and Noone to balance his massive ego.

I guess sometimes you live long enough to become the villain

I really like Hester and Hanny. Weird that show didn't even last a year. It's like they felt obligated to find a way to keep T-Bob on the air.

He seems to be good at his job, most of the time. He does quality interviews and his preparation is good. At times, his ego gets in the way of quality radio. Strangely enough, I prefer Jordys show over all of them. Hunt Palmer=too slow and boring, Scone=good, at times his ego makes it unbearable, T-Bob and Hester=I want to like it, but can’t….. Josh Pate = GOAT

He’s about as solid of a local radio guy as there is and normally has sound takes. Never really understood the hate. The “callic high” shite is the worst though, I’ve never seen someone take so much pride in where they went to HIGH SCHOOL as chs people

His main sponsor is Bug Light now. He did that to himself.
