I just recently noticed a new voice in the mornings on The Buzzard

This past week, I've heard a new voice on The Buzzard since "John Boy and Billy" are no longer on 100.3.

Whats the deal with this? and Who is the morning guy?

I hope this means they finally gave Pencola his shot

;D Hah! Shot of what??? Tequila or Cordisone??? Hahahahaha ;D ;D
 
Matt Pencola is one of the funniest persons I've ever met. Most people who've met him or have seen him at live broadcasts/station events will agree with me. Doing the local end of John Boy & Billy versus hosting his own morning show always seemed like a waste of a very talented personality. While there's no guarantees that the show will be successful (though I am very optimistic that it will be,) I'm just glad he's finally been given an opportunity to prove himself. I also understand Crash will be part of the show as well (so expect lots of talk about boobs, beer, and the Dallas Cowboys...hopefully more focus on boobs & beer than the Cowboys ;) .) Best of luck to the new Buzzard morning show and hopefully this move will be a permanent one!
 
I'm a Matt fan, as well. I always thought he could handle a morning show and I'm glad he's getting the chance. He has natural talent and with some coaching and encouragement could develop into greatness.
 
I am rooting for Pencola in a big way and I hope CC promotes the show HARD. I would love to see R92 get a little nervous. If you chip away at the AM numbers on R92 then the whole thing FALLS.
 
Well, I wouldn't get too excited about CC promoting the show. That will never happen. But, I think you're right that he might be able to chip away at R92's morning show. Go Mattie!
 
Bob and Tom are now on The Buzzard.


B&T did well on former Raleigh classic rock WRDU before mgmt started to send WRDU in a classic hits direction, and also didn't promote B&T as well as they had in the past under a former PD (Bob Edwards now at KQRC/KC). Edwards had B*T and WRDU #1 M25-54 before he left March 2003. Mgmt to follow changed direction musically and the station started to slide, B&T as well.

B&T were tried on the original "Buzzard", WMMS/Cleveland, last year... they bombed as Cleveland requires a live, local AM show. B&T lasted all of six months.

B&T, historically, do well in "northern"markets.
 
Anything is better than JB&B. R92 management has always been afraid of B&T and I hope those fears are well-founded. I am pessimistic, however.
 
Is it confirmed that B&T are on the Buazzard? I heard a local guy sounding pretty good on 100.3 today! :eek: I know he was local cause he was talking about Marcia Gam. He was good but I only heard one guy not a team like they said it was gonna be. I hope they keep it local and live and local!
 
B&T are on the Buzzard OVERNIGHTS. If JB&B failed miserably on WVBZ, how bad would Bob & Tom do?

Boob and Thumb on The Buzzard

Considering their dismal showing when they appeared on 94.5 back in the early 90's, I predict equally showings on overnights... I mean who are they up against? Jeff & John on FM Talk? It's perfect that they are being alloted a non-rated time period because that'll be the kind of ratings they'd pull.... Although it WOULD be the perfect lead-in to the Chris and Crash fest at Prick Broadcasting.... gawd I LOVE that company!

Isn't Two Girls named Chris on 12 hours a day, six days a week at Crock 92???

the website lists Chris & Chris, a couple features like album sides...and Nights with Alice Cooper. That's it.

Bob and Tom are based at WFBQ in Indianapolis. I think they became popular with the college kids at Indiana University in Bloomington and as these kids graduated they had a ready made audience throughout the nation. It couldn't have hurt.
 
Bob & Tom are really funny, to themselves. they're John Boy & Billy without grits.
 
B&T might be good in overnights, some kind of best of situation.

I used to try and listen when they were on WRDU, and I found I could only take so many of the same retreaded body part/sex jokes and songs early in the morning.
