re: Why the switch up on the Cullota show?

This morning show has taken a huge dive. It's just turrible now. Sad because Collatta & the Prince was my favorite local show since The Fastest Hour and Condon back in the day on 1210

Maybe he is just pretending to be an idiot on this morning show.

Can someone please call Moscona's show today asking about a topic they saw on TD? I love it when that happens. He gets sooooo mad.

Do you know who is dad is?

So far, I think Hunt was much better. It's only day two though. I'm gonna give T-Bob a little bit longer before I form an opinion.

I'd prob take Buddy Songy over T Bob.

Not a good start at all. I have never listened to T-Bob, so I am only judging by what I have heard the last couple of mornings, and I am not impressed. He cuts Cullota, and the guest off alot, and tries to make jokes that are not funny at all. I would also rather them talk about LSU and leave the Saints and Pelicans out of the show. I hope it gets better because I actually enjoyed tuning in on my way to work.

So does anyone know if T-Bob was fired from WWL, chose to leave willingly or still does an evening show there?

If he in fact was fired (let's face it, he alienated A LOT of listeners when he pulled a 180 and completely shifted gears away from sports and to politics in the last couple of weeks), it could just be nerves that will eventually subside, allowing for chemistry to develop.

I'd give him a few weeks before making a judgment about his presence on 104.5. It's always stressful starting a new job, especially in that line of work.

Where's tzimme when you need him?

ESPN BR recruited him for the gig and is giving him more money. They went over it a bit yesterday on the first show.

Morning in BR is a better time slot for listeners

Might work out well for both sides long-term. T-Bob is actually entertaining when he's operating within his comfort zone and he's discussing sports.

I used to listen to him driving home from my evening classes (long drive, so I got a good bit of listening in).

Then all of a sudden in January he went off the rails and made the show 100% politics --- which is not his forte --- and after a couple of hours of it spread out across a few days I gave up on the show and found something else to listen to during that time.

I imagine being at ESPN will help ensure he stays on topic and talks about what he's good at. I like T-Bob, and certainly hope he succeeds and things work out for him.
