RE: Ben and Skin....Suck

I understand Eric has also been spotted printing a story or two for his talent and allegedly he also once changed the ink cartridge.

I swear listening to that show...it might as well be called fark . com radio since that's about the extent of their prep work.

and Outlaw...you ain't fooling anybody

Fooling nobody as in......what? Only reason I brought this up was because people weren't giving credit to the type of behind the scenes production that these shows like Jagger and B&S do. I'm just sharing with a few of you guys that there is quite a lot of prep work that has to be done to do something like this. Besides this type of radio is like your favorite TV show, sometimes it's great and you think wow that was a good episode and other times they are off.

NOW, I know that people will probably rip me for saying that and say "Well B&S are off all the time" yeah they are off probably because you turn in on the MIDDLE of the freaking segment. If people were to listen to the ENTIRE show, I bet you 75% of the time you would find something that interested you just for a brief moment in time.

And again, I'M NOT ERIC, NOR ANYBODY WHO WORKS AT THIS RADIO STATION. YET!
Thank you for your time.

Yes, Ben and Skin do suck.

 

[jeffdfw]

Yes, Ben & Skin Suck... so does Jagger, Russ, Tom Leykis.... However, those at KLLI that suck the hardest IMO are Jasmine, Mondo, JD Ryan, Trey and of course... Gavin Spittle and David Henry. CBS - please pull the plug! :-*

Pugs & Kelly still suck too - just at a different spot on the FM dial. :

Just so I am not completely negative here... I do like Jimmy, Jantzen, Edward Newton, Clo & Dan. ;D

 

[ISaidSo]

90% of the people on this board know exactly what goes into putting a show together, and also know that what B&S and Eric are doing is bad, bad, bad..... I agree it is time to flush the KLLI Bowl. it is starting to smell.

Some of your post don't really show how much you really know man. I maybe wrong and if I am let me know. I HIGHLY doubt 90% know what it takes to put a show together. I don't say that I know everything about what it takes to put a show together but I've seen enough to know what I'm talking about.

It's actually Everett Newton, but oh well You guys who talk about this station sucking crack me up. I want to KNOW WHY, it sucks not just because you say so. I'm sure that most of you will say "The things these guys talk about just aren't interesting" or "(Enter name here) is SO!!!! annoying". OK that's cool opinion belongs to everyone.

I just want to know what people are thinking.

 

[ISaidSo]

Dude, seriously...First, my point is 90% of the people on this board are in radio, so they in fact do know what it takes to put on good radio, much less the junk on B&S.. Second, if you want to know what people think just read the thread, it is spelled out in great detail.

Wow, there's prep work involved in producing a radio show? Who knew. :

If people were to listen to the ENTIRE show, I bet you 75% of the time you would find something that interested you just for a brief moment in time.

Hey dude sounding like a clueless radio idiot, ever look at Arbitron and notice something called TSL? In case you ARE a clueless radio idiot, and not just a dude that sounds like one, it's short for 'time spent listening'. And the vast majority of your listeners do NOT listen to the entire show. They don't even listen for an entire HOUR.

Which is what makes you sound like a clueless radio idiot. "Oh if we were to listen to the WHOLE show, then 75% of the time I'd find something that would interest me for 'a brief moment in time'.

So let me see if I have that straight. If I listen for (what?) 4 hours,(how long are they on?) I'll find something that will interest me for a brief moment. That's it? one good brief moment in 4 hours. Dude, aren't you admitting they suck? If all I'm going to find interesting in 4 hours is a brief moment, that's pretty close to my definition of 'suck'.

Now were going to do a little name calling. , I'm not saying that B&S are the best. I have never said that they didn't suck. But I think they could be better than some people I have listened to before. I only brought up the whole prep work thing because people on this forum acted as if B&S and most of these people on KLLI just did everything right off the top of their heads.

I'm not in radio I have admitted that, but I have friends in radio such as Jimmy Ryan and Eric Marc who have taught me things about radio. So until you know ME, I would consider watching what you say about people man.

 

[tomficker]

Is Eric Marc the same Eric..who's their producer? Is Jimmy Ryan also Live 105.3.

 

[outlaw2448]

Eric Marc is the producer of B&S and Jimmy is the producer of the Jagger show. ;D

 

[ISaidSo]

Well. if Eric has ANY say in what that show does, then he sucks too. Not to mention he should NEVER open his Mic.

Well, have them teach you about TSL. And cume. And ratings. Which for the last book was a 1.5 12+, A 2.0 25-54 AND A LOUSY 2.3 men 18+.

And just to point out how bad that 2.3 is, Both sports stations beat them (KTCK 4.6 and ESPN w/a 2.9) They're beat by, well, let' s just say that Men 18+, what I would guess to be their target demo, they're THIRTEENTH. Beat by both country stations, both the big hispanic stations, all 3 CHR/urban stations, KLUV, The Eagle, KRLD, WBAP. And they're barely ahead of KZPS (2.1) and Jack (2.2). And this is in their demo. 13th. In their demo. Oh sorry, do you need Jimmy or Eric to take a break from producing to explain to you what a demo is?

Maybe you should make friends with people who actually work at successful radio stations.

Wow man, I don't know what I've done to get up your ass but I'm sorry. Just cause there 13th in the Demographic (amazing I know what Demo means) doesn't mean that I can't support them. The more you talk down on me, the more you look stupid man. You are just showing your TRUE colors.
You guys can tell me about all of the HORRIBLE things about this station, the ratings, and the entertainment (or as you say "Lack there of"), but I like this station and at this time you won't be able to change my mind.

Little1 I've respected your opinion about this station, but why are you just attacking me as if I'm stupid. I'm going to take the high road, why don't you come with me and stop this stupid little argument?

 

[Britchesthedog]

KLLI is just a corporate tax write off and lack of anyone giving direction on what to do with the property. Its a prime example of why radio is plummeting like the stock market.

 

[satradio]

I happened to catch a little of the BS show today. Boy, Eric is wimp!! They were talking about something in Little Elm and Ben and Skin kept saying they knew nothing about the town or were it was in the DFW area. Eric kept chiming in about how much the area has grown in population in the past few years, the traffic clogged streets, new developments, etc. B&S repeated several times they couldn't believe how much Eric new about Little Elm to which Eric never responded. Uhhh.. doesn't Pugs live in Little Elm? Is Eric not allowed to mention P&K at all. He can't say the former show's host lives out there. Really?

 

[radioaircheck]

The whole station sucks!!!, not just Ben and Skin. It's real simple, just quit listening to 105.3 and may be they will get a clue.

I don't think Eric was talking about Pugs, unless Pugs grows shrooms. But yeah you'd think Eric would have given a little more of a clue about how he knew so much. All Eric said was that he had a friend who lives up in Little Elm.
