Tempers Flare Behind Scene at 'Nearly Famous' Show!

Now, a lot of people are going to say because he only has one post, it may not be credible. But think about this: How about the fact that the situation is so shocking and intense that he/she finally had to burst and say something?
Hmmmmmm ???
The suspense grows..

Its pretty obvious that Michelle and her doctor husband have split, seeing as she hasn't said one thing about him in several months.
But, I gave the show about 30 minutes today and it was just so blah. Barry says something factually wrong, she buts in and slurs, repeat for 3 hours.
Talk radio is really dreadful leading up to an election because its essentially "go vote for the conservative/liberal that we are talking about" On the left or the right its unimaginative radio just talking points and jibber from the candidates.
And, if I have to hear "I can see November from my house" one more time I'll vomit. Its not a particularly witty meme, nor is it illuminating or worth repeating 20X a day for 3 months.

So by this same logic Barry and Kim have split as well...
Maybe they dont want to drag the spouses in to the show.

I left the valley in 2004 and had not listened to Barry since the podcast started. I remember when Michele first started with him (~2001), she used say, "The best doctor ever!" anytime that a reference was made about her husband Joel S. Larson. I have not heard her say that since the podcast started and I have only missed the few that were not posted.
My question: When did you hear Michele talking about her husband?
* I did hear Barry make an off the cuff remark this week about Michele turning someone into a Log Cabin Republican.
Out of the loop,
Norman
Looks like she is recently divorced according to Maricopa County Superior Court's web site: http://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/docket/FamilyCourtCases/caseInfo.asp?caseNumber=FN2009-004145

Michele stopped mentioning Joel over a year ago. This is not something new. And Barry rarely ever mentions Kim by name. Michele started mentioning vacations and weekend getaways with friends rather than her husband over a year ago. The split itself is old news.
I hardly ever get a chance to listen to Barry, but I had heard that Michelle and her husband were divorced. Think I heard it about 6 months ago. Kim mentions Barry by name on her show.
Regarding Barry and Kim: I don't listen to Barry much because I'm at work when his show is on and can't necessarily listen to the radio. So I don't know if he talks about being married to Kim Komando.
Kim has mentioned her husband "Barry" on her show a lot. I believe a couple of times she has said her husband works on Phoenix radio/KFYI. Plus if you go to her website and look at her vacation pictures, you will see pictures of Barry.
How I found out that they were married is because Tom Liddy said it during the Liddy & Hill show.

So, was Michele that overly botoxed cougar that looked like an old purse that I saw last nite in N. Scottsdale at PrimeBar?
Lord, I hate N. Scottsdale, but I had no choice.
All kidding aside, Barry and Michelle have been awful lately, and its pretty obvious that the trophy wife got taken out of the trophy case...

I didnt know the Larson's got a divorce. That sucks, i had her husband as a doctor while i was at the mayo in 2000.
So back on topic, Whats going on behind the scene's with Barry and Michelle?

Actually Legend, I'll disagree with one part of that...
The really frustrating aspect of Barry's show is that he DOESN'T generally endorse any specific candidate or even give much of an opinion on any one person. It's fairly obvious who he likes, but he makes a point to say "I'm not going to come on the air and say which one I'm voting for".. this was the long running theme during J.D. vs McCain. "They're both my friends", I mean come on! Barry is the first person to make fun of the "undecided" crowd, yet when it comes time to give HIS opinion on the air, he refuses to do so.

As for the original poster's comments.. blah, same old conjecture about tensions on a show with no specific examples; no previous postings, no facts and therefore no credibility.

Actually KMGX, he does....The Nearly Bald One is openly solid for David Schweikert in the CD5 race against Harry Mitchell. And he'd move Raul's Tuff Shed to Tucson just to vote for whoever is running against (and will lose to) Raul Grijalva. Mr. Kommando purposely sat on the fence in the US Sentate race because he was very instrumental in getting J.D. Loudmouth on KFWhyEye.
KMGX said:
Nah, he's too busy endorsing his clique of sponsors--gold dealers, water softeners,
carpet cleaners, plumbers. It's always "our friends over at..." Your friends? Really,
NBO? Do you and Kim regularly have them over for a BBQ at the house? (And is
the Prattster invited too? ;D)
