This thread delivers.


My Bobby Hebert story. After the NFCCG we went to Deanie's for the post game show. He showed up and got himself all set up. Had all his notes with him. He had his paw paw glasses on the tip of his nose go over his stuff. His wife was behind the set up getting him hot tea with lemon and he was sitting there sipping his tea looking all serious. They get to the live show and he completely loses his mind. He was up on tables waving his shirt chanting Who Dat and doing shots.

A while back he basically slurred himself off the air one morning then went mia for a few days. He blamed it on sinus medication.


I remember that.

We were discussing this the other day at work. What other market would have more mush mouth on air folks than WWL? I mean I like Bobby, Deke, Hokie, etc but my god even growing up here it's hard to understand them at times.

I had it on for a minute this morning because it was on 105.3 from my drive home yesterday. Your boy was trying to say that someone that served his country in non-wartime and had to spend 2 weeks away form home in Paris sacrificed the same amount for his/her country as the people that were in combat in WWI, WW2, Iraq, etc. I just shook my head and plugged in my phone.

One of the most basic rules of radio is that you aircheck yourself. That is, you record your own show and listen to see if you are falling into bad habits, poor speech patterns, talking over callers, music (lyrics) etc.

It is very clear that no one at WWL, with the possible exception of Scoot, does this.

It's b/c it's listeners are morons. morons flock to other morons.

ANyone with a brain that functions normally in society listens to any of these shows for a few minutes and realizes they have to stop or they are going to become dumber by listening to it.

Kristian Garrick may be the biggest WTF in radio history

Yea he must be related to someone in the industry to get the jobs he has, sideline reporter and radio host . I don't think he has an ounce of athletic ability and he is not entertaining, very confusing. I think TBob does a really good job and there is a guy (can't remember his name) who typically fills in for Kristian that is SOOOO much better than him. Don't understand why they don't switch to him.

Kristian started out as a intern that they let come on the radio on Friday afternoons on the Fan and the Pro...he was the fan. The show was horrible bc Kristina didnt know wtf he was talking about.

Then after Gus Catingale got canned, they put Kristians fat arse on the sideline after that happened his head got as big as his waist and now he somehow thinks hes a legit sports reporter.



BTW....is he wearing Capri Pants?

He was so freaking bad on that show.

It's crazy that he's the sideline/locker room guy for a major sports franchise.

Semper Fi.


Btw, I absolutely love that he still rocks the 1996 military issued Oakleys and hair cut.

One morning a caller called in to Tommy Tucker's show and kept calling him Scoot...Tommy was getting so pissed. I think all TD posters should strive to call in 5 times a day and call Tommy Tucker, Scoot

All that would do is make him puff out his chest about all the people listening to his show.

I can't take that station for more than about 5 minutes.

I think they've somehow managed to rearrange the time and space continuum to get 6 minutes of commercials into a 5 minute slot.

The commercials are crazy. The only time I usually listen now is in the afternoons for Saints stuff.
