I like Wydo; he reminds me of my brother-in-law, who cracks me up when he goes on rants.

Spoiler:
DDT WY. OUCH!

What stops theX from implementing an application (thru BB, iP etal) that would make it possible for one to choose the artist/genre/year/song etc. when a Madden segment ends?
If your chosen song exceeds the length of the station content, the former is merely disabled until the advertising ends.
If you don't care for Madden, you could continue to play music you like.
There is probably a reason why the aforementioned hasn't happened.
Anybody know?

Gianatti has some odd opinions but he is a funny dude. The morning show is much better with him on it, I agree.
I agree as well. A few weeks ago when Gianatti was in for Alexander it was pretty darn good radio. I think that Gianatti / Burton / Colony could potentially be gold.
Yep.

She's the one on the right (ok i guess). She was pretty bad about constantly botching people's names.

Talking about Madden's segments unrelated to sports, he had some pompous English bloke on during rush hour on Friday. I was sitting in traffic on Rt. 51 and this guy wouldn't shut up. He had something to do with the Sex Pistols, which is fine and all, but he was the most boring interview ever.

I think i heard him praising Public Image Ltd before. i guess that kind of makes sense then (johnny rotten's post Sex Pistols band)...plus he's on a rock'n roll station now.

Madden was off on Friday, he's probably on vacation this week.

Yeah, anytime Madden interviews porn stars or people affiliated with rock music, I turn the dial. It's usually pretty dry. The porn stars are the worst though because it just seems like the entire time he is hitting on them.

I heard that most of the time she basically would surf the interwebs and find stuff on like yahoo sports and espn to then mention on the air. They probably would be better served with some national feed.

Wat ophoudt theX van het uitvoeren van een toepassing (door BB, iP et al) die het voor mogelijk zou maken om de kunstenaar/het genre/het jaar/lied enz. te kiezen wanneer een Madden segment beëindigt? Als uw gekozen lied de lengte van de postinhoud overschrijdt, is de eerstgenoemde slechts gehandicapt tot de reclame beëindigt. Als u don' t zorg voor Madden, u kon blijven muziek spelen u houdt van. Er is waarschijnlijk een reden waarom voornoemde hasn' t gebeurde. Om het even wie weet het?
