The Bert Show - Pathetic

K

kaylar

Ive been on the borderline with the bert show for the past year anyway because I hate their lame "caller problems" etc that they do every day. But they have just pushed me right over the edge today.

They are absolutely pathetic. The way Bert & Jeff were telling the story of how the atty for Josh Duhmel contacted them to stop running the interview with the stripper (total skank by the way) and they replied that they needed "proof" that the story wasn't true in order to stop. Excuse me, but who do they think they are? They are simply a radio show that is trying, very transparently, to do their best to turn this ridiculous story into some "bit" ... and they are advising an atty that they need proof, like they are some high court. Uggg, the whole thing and their attitude about it is making me sick.
 
It is very hard to listen to all the cackling and the constant "ummmmmmmmmm" noise coming out of Bert's mouth, that was the FIRST thing I was taught in Journalism class -do NOT say "uhhh, ummm, ya know, and like". Reason being that it made the listener/person being interviewed think that you were grasping and not perpared. Oh great, they are playing that HORRID Firefly song by Owl City, even more reason not to listen during the day now. Does anyone really care about Josh and strippers? I wouldn't know him from the bagger at the grocery store.
 
Bert puts on a show and he gets the numbers. Isn't that the idea? What else is there? The guy delivers.
 
So did Jenn Hobby have any comments about the potential of him cheating while married? Wouldn't want to hear she's a hypocrite.

FRKOUT --- you're freaking out over nothing important. Give it a rest. Besides, you shouldn't have the time to listen to their show with your #1
rated morning show...right? And, even more brilliant...you won't listen to the station because they play one song YOU don't like. Finally,
things -- Journalism class -- never admit you took that. The grocery store bagger looking down at you will laugh at you. For someone who
doesn't like the show or station you certainly did your homework as a listener...hmm. Was it required listening for some class that's given you so much
"insight." Geez.
 
WOW Tibbs, really??? So sorry to offend you precious! I don't listen very often, but when l DO listen it is basically cackling and Bert saying ummmmmmmm this is an OBSERVATION and an OPINION. Clearly, we don't agree. Yes, I took many Journalism classes and if you are so worked up about that then this just isn't the subject/board for you. As for the baggers looking down at me- Doubt it very much so. Hope your day gets better. ???

Yeah, Tibbs, I took Journalism too. All my classes were all about not saying, "uhhh, ummm, ya know, and like." That's what Journalism is, don't you know that? I would direct you to Rodney Ho but he majored in economics.

When did The Bert Show become the last bastion of the Fourth estate? I think someone smarter than me mentioned that he's a deejay on a top-rated morning show. The show provided entertainment, that's all.
 
It should be, "The show provides entertainment, that's all."
 
The format is not really my cup of tea, but when I turn it on the Bert Show normally keeps my attention with the topics that they're discussing. I believe the show does a great job of engaging the listener.
 
99X,Q100, 100.5 are all a mess. GROOVE 105.7 is going to blow Star, Q100 out of the water............And a CC station at that.
 
The fact is that if someone threatens to sue you have to provide a burden of truth that what is being said is not true so for his camp to send out a C&D and threaten suit they are well within their right to request suit before obeying a C&D.
