Smerconish Ripping Off Stern

[DToTheJ]

Anyone hear Smerconish during the local breaks on 1210? Most of the time, Michael has taken to ragging on his female sidekick/producer T.C. speaking in a high-pitched voice. Gee, where have I heard that before... Oh, that's right, when Howard Stern rags on his female sidekick Robin while speaking in a "Jackie the Jokeman" voice... I guess they're trying to chase that male demo...

The guy is a phoney half-@$$ed Republican in Liberal Democratic clothing, in the same lines as Arlen Specter and Ben Stein, get the connection...

Stern invented using a high pitched voice to make fun of women? Really?

I turned on smerconish yesterday morning around 6:20 and they were talking about his producer or someone afraid to fly to some affiliate events and then the convo ensued about the producer and how he doesn't like flying. I turned it off and thought " who the f cares"

I don't listen much since he syndicated. The station ought to go all sports with the Phillies, good luck hearing any talk radio now.

I'll start out by saying that I love Howard, but his claims to be the originator of EVERYTHING are just plain galling.

That would be Greg. I believe he is an intern or something, and T.C. is the bona fide show producer.

Smerconish has been branching out for a few years now, trying to be more of a Stern-like radio personality. Don't think it works too well, but given the lack decent shows, it's probably helping his ratings a little ... maybe? ... I don't know. Everything's awful. Just awful.
