I used to enjoy listening to these stations here in the Valley: 104.3(previously KAJM) mega 97.5(KMVA)hot 97.5 & 101.1(KZCE) The Bounce, occasionally 101.5(KALV)Live 101-5. Been in AZ for just under 5 years and here is another reason why I may have to leave the FM Dial. These Commercials are the worse (In My Opinion) While I have nothing against Advertising for Accident Lawyers why are these some of most annoying? Even Call Raffi isn't this bad. I was Denver recently and had to turn of 107.5 (KQKS)and (KALC) 105.9 seems like this Pollution is only on the CHR/RHYTHMIC/R&B Oldies Formats, yet when I chime on KUPD or KLSX I never hear these adds?

Top (Loud)Dog Commercials, my ears are so done already!!
- Thread starter 1johnnyradio

Pollution perhaps too strong of a word, but it's the delivery manner which these commercials come across as Loud and highly aggressive, and why are they only advertised on Rhythmic/Contemporary Hit Radio Stations? or is there another underlying reason?? I Frequent Classic Alternative and 80s hits stations at times and never have heard anything related to this Top Dog. Radio used to be carefree, enjoyable for all walks of life, doesn't seem like it much anymore.

Sounds like you need a personal injury attorney for your ears….
I think you might be right.... with all the yelling in his ads might be why accidents happen more often

Least you could tolerate the delivery of this Attorney, Unlike the Dog Law man, just way to Loud on the delivery, I know advertising dollars keeps helps pays the bills but has things really got that tight?
On YouTube, I saw a news story a TV station did on the guy behind the TopDog radio ads, he's based out of Charlotte. He has the same delivery on ads for other businesses too
If there's a trophy winner in the annoying loud commercials, Spencer's Appliances drives me bonkers. Does the business really think that their customers have large hearing loss? I change channels or smash the mute button.
At least radio is still not as bad as TV when it comes to commercials. Worst are the political ads around election time, the charities begging for money (St. Judes/Shriners, et al), and Progressive Insurance come to mind. Radio ads are also easier to ignore, just turn down the volume till the break is over with.
These ads are awful. They're still preferable to the divorce lawyer ads with the tragic Hallmark movie piano going in the background - "when you know you just can't carry on living like this, we're here to help". Pass the sick bag!
