I listened for an hour. It was bad and in my opinion Danny is trying to hard right now.

I get it I am in my 40s he in in his early 30s and far more liberal than I am, but you can be both liberal and a sports fan and leave politics out and wet blankets.

Last night I listened to opening segment podcast to hear about what he had to say about Mac. During the intro he is talking about how we as a society have to be better on all issues, Trans issues? Something like that. Than he talks about watching The Chi with his wife.

Just seems like at the beginning he was sports and fun(the gambling stuff got old fast), but he has a great radio voice and knows sports.


Today he had on Pat Fitzgerald and put such a wet blanket and annoying reaction to "I guess football and money matter." "What about the unkowns with the virus to young people." This isnt about football health anymore? I was like, what? CTE is far greater deal than COVID for this age group.


Maybe a generational thing for just a 12 year age difference or so, but I remember Grunge, not giving an F in my youth, loving sports, Stern, etc.


So many people I talked to are so happy about Big Ten football starting except the one sports guy I listened to today. He just came across as obviously playing an act on being perplexed.


This virus sucks, everyone agrees. Science matters. Everyone agrees. Science states both mortality and morbidity that college age kids are at an extreme low risk to this.

Social distance around older people and those with pre existing conditions. Seems pretty easy. Only have had 8 months or so of World data.

I don't think I will be listening anymore. Even though I think he is extremely talented, sports talk was entertainment for me.

I cannot watch the dumb@ass debate shows, I tried the guy Clay Travis, he is annoying right winger who says he doesnt talk poltics, yet only talks politics.

The Herd had its moments.

I just want a sports guy, the best guy in town without a doubt is J Hood.

Just my 2 cents. Anyone else listen to Parkins first day?

I don't need to review the show because Danny has been driving the Parkins and Mac show since the beginning, and it's shit. He doesn't take calls and he's in love with his voice. Fuck him and his social issues bullshit. He and his butterface wife should move to faggotyland.

Most callers suck.

No doubt that most suck. A good host can turn that into radio gold. Parkins solo is a train wreck. We all know he likes to hear himself talk but without someone else there to help him it is probably the worst show on the air.

I dunno, Frank, anyone who regularly interacts with college students knows that they can't be trusted to make responsible decisions about most things, and certainly not matters related to public health.

I'd rather listen to fucking B96 for 72 straight hours than Danny Parkins for one.

Everyone says he has a great radio voice but to me he sounds like a spoiled mammas boy who is playing radio host. He has no clue why we watch sports and listen to sports radio.

The best thing we can do is not listen, and not create show threads IMO.

Lebatard has podcasts too!!!

To me, Parkins is better suited to the national broadcasts. The couple times I've heard him, he was great, partly because he focused strictly on sports (and maybe some gambling).

Lebatard has podcasts too!!!

Lebatard has podcasts too!!!

Its too bad the ones from his original local show aren't up anymore. That was a great show. They pranked Mac once.

I wonder if they are on YouTube somewhere.
