There's some guy that calls into Mueller's show all the time and drops "Mark Eaton" at some point during the call. Maybe this was the guy? ISH HE DA GUY ISH HE NOT DA GUY

Also there's a guy that drops "Zack Collaros" in calls during the drive time show.

No one will need to call, he'll probably joke about it.

NOTHIN' JUST DOING A RADIO SHOW, BRO
Chris Mueller and Vinni say that alot as well.
If Josh Miller ever called into Vinnie I'm fairly certain it would go something like this...

Vinnie: Welcome back to shports radio nindy tree sheven da Fan. Its Vinnie with you on shports radio nindy tree sheven da Fan. Next up we have Josh. Josh yawr up here on shports radio nindy tree sheve da Fan.

Josh Miller: I hear what your sayin....

Not sure if you listened today, but Josh owned up to saying "I hear what you're sayin" and admitted that he hates himself for saying it too much.

Josh, if you're reading...

I heard that. He was getting kind of down on himself. I changed my tune on him in the past couple weeks, I like what he brings to the station.

On my way home from work last night around 5:30 and Madden went to commercial so I flipped over to 93.7. From time to time in recent weeks, I've given 93.7 a chance on the drive home because I don't mind Josh Miller.

Completely forgot that Seibel (who I cannot stand) was back on the show. As soon as I heard his voice, I should've changed it, but against my better judgment, I gave it a minute. What was the topic of discussion?

Seibel, Starkey and Miller asking callers which Steeler they would most like to see fake an injury.

...

...

I suppose this was someone's idea to try to play off the Rams-Giants fake injury controversy, but to say it was bad radio is an insult to bad radio. How does that even make it on the air, much less in the middle of drive time? I stuck around for about 60 seconds and then changed the station.

Seibel couldn't be more of a cookie-cutter, stereotypical, over-enthusiastic, over-enunciating, textbook broadcast school radio personality if he tried.

I have no idea what the hell happened to Joe Starkey. I remember when he used to be on during guest appearances with Madden and some of the older shows on 1250, especially during the lean Pens years, the lockout, the arena saga, etc. He was terrific then. No idea what happened.

Starkey is perfect on a 1-man show or teamed with Miller but this 3-man team with Seibel just doesn't work.

i wasn't listening, but driving to work today the thought crossed my mind, "gee the only radio station in town where people are up drunk at 6am on a weekday call must be the X" Seems like it happens every day. They are getting pretty blatent with their fake drunk/high at 7am, stupid Steeler/Pens calls

To put it in perspective, those are 12+ numbers (all people ages 12 aqnd over) and they don't mean that much. In Men 25-54 and 18-35 The Fan is exceeding initial expectations and in the morning is pushing the X and 104.7 for #2 behind 'DVE .. goodness knows there are plenty of commercials so somebody is buying.
