I thought Spiegel was supposed to be to Danny Mac what Ed McMahon was for the longest time to the late, great Johnny Carson, or these days, Andy Richter is to Conan O'Brien on the "Tonight Show"...You know, second banana!

This coming from Mac after he's finished dead last in our Fantasy Lig the past 2 years so of course he's saying fantasy numbers don't count but if Im a betting man he's grabbing Jay with his first pick this year.

Wondering if we have the draft at the Score studios this year if they will allow Jurko in the building.

Didn't oppose Cutler trade... said I didn't like his flakeyness and doubted Team Turner to develop the lad.

It sounds off to me, too. "Hot" and tinny. Like Reg Dunlop said to the drunk guy in the bar who was unhappy with the Chiefs' powerplay... "we're working on it." Leaving Slapshot off the air for bit (and a lot of other old "crutches") but I reserve the right to quote one of the greatest guy movies every made here on the board.

Thanks for suggestions & pointing out things about podcasts, bios on the website, etc. Concerned right now only about content and staff chemistry... which has been solid as a rock. We'll get to the peripherals later. We had only Fri and Sat together as a foursome. Jay was with us all of us last week.... while also juggling Murph. Coulda used another two weeks to work out Ray Davies' Kinks... but we there's a lot of talent and dedication on the staff so it'll adjust quickly... much quicker than it took MJH. And by a mile.

I only heard about an hour today, but have always liked Mac in a 2 guy booth, and no bullshit from Jurko "I'll argue with you on every point just to argue- duh,,,that's good radio..."

I haven't listened to 670 in a while and I was prewarned by the Board about the commercials, I thought you guys were just exaggerating but holy shit!, they ain't talking for 2 hours in a 4 hour show!

First of all, let me say how great it has been to get feedback from you guys. (Good and bad). It's been a whirlwind since last Tuesday when I got the call to meet for coffee and got the invite to join the ball club. A lot has happened in the last few days, and I'm getting comfortable in my new surroundings. Every radio station is different. It's been a little like that feeling you get in a strange rental car. "Where's the headlights, how do I turn on the wipers?" I'm finding my way. I have to make sure I don't continue driving to State and Lake like I did yesterday before I had coffee.

As far as sound issues, are you finding it only when the guys are talking, or is it commercials and production pieces too??? Also, Stu says the stream sounds good? Interesting. We are definitely aware of something not right, and we are working on it. (I know, "Get it right, soundboy!!")

For me, it is all of the above. Its hard to describe without sounding mean, but kind of like being on a live remote in a tin shed? Its really noticeable in that first promo piece with Mac that plays during Mully and Hanley commercial breaks. And not just your show but M and H also. Maybe its just the station equipment. I have the stream up now and it still sounds off to me. Its not so bad I can't listen, maybe my ears are just hyper-sensitive.

Keep up the hard work, I am sure you guys will work it out soon enough!

The only time it sounds right for me is during that tinnitus commercial.

I listen through the stream and it sounds fine.

That tinnitus commercial is a drag! Anyway, thanks for the information. We'll get it tracked down.

The stream today sounded good - definitely better than the radio yesterday. And you can really tell with that new promo Mac cut. Good work Dave!
