Billy Bob

Traveling through Tennessee last week I heard Billy Bob and whoever. I was not at all impressed. I thought the morning shows in PA were bad but these guys were horrible! What is the appeal? They were not even close to being funny!
 
If you're referring to "The Big Show" with "John Boy and Billy", that's NOT a "Tennessee" thing.
It is a syndicated show based in the home of NASCAR- North Carolina.
One station in Jackson dropped it fairly recently and a station in Dyersburg (with sites set on the Jackson market) picked it up.

You are correct in that it's not that great...but there's worse.
 
The worst thing about these type shows is that these losers all laugh (excessively!) at their own "jokes"!

A promo for one of them ran one of these guys telling a joke that began, "A seal walks into a club..." followed by what seemed like at least 30 seconds of continuous laughter! And it wasn't even remotely funny! Certainly not that funny! (And by the way, that was the entire joke! "A seal walks into a club.") Not laughing? Didn't think so. ::)
 
DELIVERY and detail have a great deal to do with the success of a joke. ;D
For example, in the joke you quoted it is supposed to be a BABY seal...
Makes all the difference in the world.

Let's try it again...

"So, this BABY SEAL walks into a CLUB!"

It's funny because there's so much controversy about the killing of the small, white, furry creatures.
They must be killed for their beautiful pelts BEFORE they shed and leave the rubbery seal skin. They just walk up to them and POP 'em in the head with a bat (or club).

What????

Still not funny?

Wait til I tell you the one about the car-owning chimpanzee who blows a seal. It's hilarious!!!
