Tom taught me how to critique food. He taught me to appreciate eating out. He taught me how to describe food and to make food criticism an art.


LOL

This isn’t saying much. You put Blaze in the top 5 of your NOLA Metro pizza rankings and left Ancora off completely bc political bias.

I listened to his show for about 45 minutes yesterday. It's the first time in a couple of years, I think.

His demotion to HD2 has cost him a gigantic portion of his listeners, his dementia has cost him some more, and he gets almost no callers presently, which were what kept the show new and interesting. They've filled in with guide dog Mary Ann and guests which people care nothing about. Then there's the solar magnitude issue of his arrogance, pomposity and rudeness.

Tom has been a great resource over the years. He had pretty comprehensive knowledge the history of the NOLA food scene. But he resisted new food trends, choosing to ignore them instead of continuing to follow the trends. For example, he refused to learn anything about the revolutionary segment of craft beers.

A couple of you guys (you know who you are) can continue your worship, but his time has passed.
