What's everyone's opinion on this guy? I think
his show is based in Georgia cuz he talks a lot
of bulldog football. I have only caught a few
segments so I haven't formed an opinion yet.
Does he give the Tigers any love?

BTW he is on after Mascona @ 6:00

He covers LSU quite a bit. I think he had Moscona on a few weeks ago. I like his show. He’s not a homer for any specific team.

His voice is nails on the chalkboard. Can't do it.

...and yes. The Kirby love is strong with that guy.

I like his show and very informative. With him I get college football mainly sec football talk everyday of the year regardless of it is basketball or baseball season. He is 100% better then listening to Paul finebaum who is a Bama cocksucker.

He knows his college football
Show is in Atlanta
He also does a show in ATL with another guy during the afternoon ride
Calls himself the Kang
Went to auburn
Was high school teacher and won a contest that gave him a shot as a radio guy( or something like that)
Good dude
Talks GA a lot bc a lot of his listeners are in GA, but certainly knows what’s going on with most teams.
I like him better than Moscona

I’ll listen to his show if I’m driving. Seems to know his stuff. I like Mascona too, but don’t particularly care for some of his guests

I think he covers SEC football better than any other radio personality. Just because the radio show is based in Atlanta does not mean he discusses UGA all the time. I listen to him on the local Mobile, AL radio and his affiliates are growing all over the south so it’s a true SEC biased program. Naturally he talks more about UGA, Florida, Bama, LSU and Auburn because at this point in time they are the better SEC teams that draw the most interest but he honestly has good takes on all the SEC schools and brings on quality guest from all schools. He even throws a little ACC teams into the mix. He went to Auburn but I think he goes out of his way not to act like an Auburn biased homer. I don’t always agree with him but his thoughts are logic based and he can say things in a manner that really never piss me off. Even Mascona acts very professional and serious when he’s on his show to discuss LSU. I look at his show as very factual, informed and pro SEC. if you want to hear about the entire conference Chuck Oliver has the best show the guy is sharp. Also for those that gamble he throws a lot of nuggets out there that you don’t hear anywhere else.

Lived in Atlanta for ten years.

He also does Chuck & Chernoff on 680 TheFan.

I enjoy him and like the fact that he only focuses on football.

He did yesterday.

I lived in Atlanta for many years. Oliver was on most of those years. Pretty matter of,fact. Not a homer for anyone. Understandably if you are on ATLANTA radio you will talk about Georgia. If I had an impression from the past it was more of an Auburn bias than anything.

It is so much easier to,get inside info on Georgia, Clemson, Auburn, Bama sitting in Atlanta.

Yesterday Oliver said he got to interview Burrow three times in two years. One was at media days in the summer.

They talk to our local pundits. Guys like Oliver, Forde, pretty much any national guy get info from our local know it alls.. Those guys were trashing Orgeron and our program all the way through the end of 2018. Now we are geniuses
