Couldn't really get through it, but this seemed like something Curious Hair would enjoy.

His original radio name was The Whipping Boy, he never introduced himself as Brian until he got on the Mancow show.

I thought that was pretty enjoyable, but only scratched the surface of how terrible Eric and Kathy are, not to mention Chicago morning drive in general. She didn't even touch Mancow. Of course, would you touch Mancow? (There's also Jimmy and Lisa of WXLC, for those who feel Eric and Kathy aren't suburban enough.) The commenters did a decent job picking up the slack, bringing up those execrable Eric and Kathy billboards that pollute our roads. Morning-zoo radio, as other commenters brought up, really hasn't evolved since the '90s, which is truer than true considering Eric and Kathy themselves have been hosting since the '90s.

B96 is a weird case, because as I understand it, Stylz and Roman function as kind of a personality-driven show that mornings would usually be, but in afternoons. The B96 of my youth was only personality-based in the mornings and then music-intensive in middays and afternoons, then a little more talky with George McFly in evenings.

In uplifting morning-drive news, Charlie Meyerson was in for Mary Dixon the other day and had a line about the Oregon idiots like "finally, our long national snacks-and-dildos nightmare is over." Honest to God, I didn't think you could say "dildo" on the air.

as bad as Howard is nowadays, I would rather listen to the worst of him than any of those morning shows. I only listen to M&M during football season and even then I hate myself for doing it.
