I'm sure his political positions are well informed.

Having listened to TBob for awhile on WWL, I have to tell you guys that he actually is very good. He has his own style but it will grow on you.

Maybe its just low expectations with the rest of WWL...but give him a chance.

I actually enjoyed his sports show. I quit listening when he went all political on me.

Yeah, for the most part I thought t bob was great on wwl. Gave the usual crew a breath of fresh air.

He did try a little too hard at times but as a young broadcaster I thought he did a great job.

I've met him a couple times and he is a pretty bright and funny dude.

I was listening this morning, and maybe I missed something but why did they can Hunt? or did they just move it somewhere else like Juluke?

Hunt was only a tempoary fill-in for Ponamsky. I think they have been trying to get Liberal T-bob since DP left the show in the fall. As long as TBob leaves out his polictal views I think the show will be ok.

The fact that four different people have made this point in this thread is a pretty good indicator that his success depends in part on his ability to stick to sports.

He'll get better it was day one. Chick was way worse why do they keep hiring these women who aren't any good? McCord was horrendous too.

I can't even listen to the damn show. He is trying way to hard to be funny and it's coming off as creepy and awkward. Anyone else agree?




Honest question....how does it compare to the hour on Fridays when Moscona has Ryan Theriot on? I can't listen to that...so I am trying to see if there is a comparison here

Ole Gordy, exec vp of guaranty who probably has a hand in the hiring, is probably trying to smash all of them.

His own version of the casting couch.

Ummm he wasn't solo
There were three other people in the studio

This is definitely the last of Corey Webster on the show until next football season

TBOB never let him talk

What did he say this morning that was political? Or, are you talking about his Nola show?

Yes. My morning ride to work was mostly enjoyable listening to Cullotta and the Fan, but I had to change the station this morning. It was definitely hard to listen to. I hope he settles in, because id rather listen to sports talk than music in the morning.

I found t-bob to be worse although I do agree with you on Matt and moscona. T-bob did try and throw in his political views. Joking about the pats favoring white wr's and mentioned something about not being homophobic. It was said in a joking sense, but after reading people's responses about him including his political views i understand why he said it, but not tuning in to listen to political views from a guy named T-BOB

Sorry to hear that his "don't be homophobic" line triggered you snowflakes by violating your safe spaces.

Lauren, who was doing the entertainment stuff is an awesome girl. It was her first day. Let her get comfortable and she will be great. Her personality is perfect for that.

TBob will be great too. It was day one with a lot of adjustments. Give it a few days and settle down.
