I thought they were good too. The evening guy also. They have a sports update girl working tonight though who is right out of your local college station. Ack.

The dude on from 10PM to 2AM (from Buffalo BTW) is bland and extremely uninteresting.

Not to sound rude, but it's 10pm-2am...what do you expect? :)

I like the ABC Show in the morning. Ron Cook and Vinnie is going to take some time to get used to. Starkey and Seibel were awesome. Didn't get a chance to listen to the evening guys or the over night guys yet.

:thumb: from me so far, though. Hope that this station sticks.

I turned the night go on for about 15 minutes last night. he spent atleast 5 minutes complaining about snow on the streets and then took a call from a mentally challenged person who took 2 minutes just to ask what the steelers are going to do at running back next year...it was painful.

I'd give it a chance to settle down. Obviously the first few shows are going to be bumpy.

The morning show is 100 times better than yesterday.

They are really on. This is going to be great.

Colony is getting more airtime which is good.

Seibel and Starkey were phenomenal.

I was listening to this last night in the car around 830 or so, and it featured maybe the most obnoxious host ive ever heard in my life. Anyone know who it was?

Possibly -- the part I heard he was complaining about the snow and the city failing to remove it. He was ruthlessly making fun of a guy who I am guessing was his engineer for not doing anything fun on Valentines Day, and forcing him to do pick up lines with some female employee there. It was so awful I wanted to call in and yell at him.

ABC is a great show. I never thought that DVE would be replaced on my morning drive, but as long as they remain status quo, I am sticking with ABC.

Like most people, I really enjoyed Seibel and Starkey. Now I don't have to listen to Nirvana and for 90% of my ride home.

Yeah, I made the switch over from DVE this morning. The morning show has sucked since Randy left.

I wonder if Starkey and Seibel take a chunk out of Madden's ratings if MM will play less music and do more talk. Will be interesting to see how this shakes out...

I was listening to the lunch stuff yesterday and loved it. Vinny and Cook. Pretty good, Vinny is a very good host.

From what I have read and heard Madden has little to no say on the amount of music that is played on his show.

Though I can guarantee Madden will push for less.

I also bet within 2-3 months 1250 ESPN Radio's only M-F local show will be Junker and Savran from 10-2.

I'll also be honest and say I did not think about this channel hurting DVE but I bet it does.

I listened to just about all of SS. Once Seibel settles in to the town and lets Starkey get some more airtime, that show will be ca$h.

The show has sucked a lot longer than that
