There are very few industries that sound cool, but must suck more than sports talk radio.

I don't know how these guys take the volatility. Constant reshuffling partners, time slots, always worried about ratings, shitty pay, a dying medium.

frick that job.

Lol. And probably typed more in his reply than he would have had to type in the topic.

I love the irony with people like this.

i listened to innes from time to time on the drive into work

he focused half of his radio show talking about other stations (610 and 97.5) and the other half, he tried to push the racial envelope.

his first 2 months, he spent bashing charlie p, who was popular enough around town.

he sure as frick didnt make any friends anywhere in town

Access. Get to hang around and talk to sports personalities. Also, make money from remotes, sponsorship deals, etc. Hell Mattress Mac might have given him a room full of furniture.

I don’t get that either, the access part I mean.

I really don’t get why a grown man would give a frick about being able to have access to someone who could give two shits about them.

It’s weird

Put on 1280 in NOLA this morning a bit after 8 and they had the Innes fill-in hosts doing the show. Was Outkick the coverage on until 8 am? Curious what they do with 8 - 10 am if they will have Clay Travis on until 8 am.

The two they had on at 8 am were pretty terrible.

What a blessing for 1280AM NEW orleans. Never understand why they had this talentless clown talking Houston sports on a local station. No one gives two fricks about the ASStros down here. BRING BACK DP

Because he talked more about NOLA sports - a tiny bit - in the morning than anyone else did. T-Bob's show does more but it can be hard to pick up some times.

Would like to see a good local show in that slot. But considering how bad the rest of 1280 local programming is, ugh.

this is what happens when you try and create a daily show on a sports talk station instead of talking about sports.


when your 2 co-hosts are lame as frick.


Josh is very talented at talking. His subject matters suck.

I actually enjoyed his morning show with Jim Mudd thoroughly. Lots of LSU content so I can see why a Houston radio network wants it to be more Texas focused.

He got canned from 610, then to Philly, dumped, returned to Houston 790, dumped. Hope he gets it together.

Meanwhile, the 610 morning crew has sucked since they added the third guy Gallant. He is horrible.

Tried giving the guy a shot when he first started. I knew he wouldn't last when he said Ewing was better than Olajuwon within his first two weeks.

Time to bring Charlie Pallillo back to 790 in a good time slot. He is the best 2 hours of sports radio by a mile.
Charlie is extremely intelligent, but he has the personality of a turnip
