Make way for LOHO from noon to 2pm. Maybe these last ratings forced this. From 5 hours and the longest running sports talk in city to 3 hours and losing all relevance. It’s sad. |

Looks like one of his (former) sponsors just got nailed: Avant to pay $3.85 million in FTC settlement The FTC in a lawsuit alleged numerous infractions that led to borrowers paying too much or suffering unauthorized bank withdrawals. https://www.chicagobusiness.com/finance ... settlement |

Heard Larry the last 2 days, yikes. Fucker won't stop talking about his degree from Alabama, who cares. He has weird nicknames for his wife. He just had Siera Santos on, sounded like he want to smash that. |

Sir described her as fine chocolate. Every interview with a local news female comes off extremely creepy. Why does his show have on a random reporter at least once a week anyway? |

It's pretty obvious Larry got his Masters cuz he's thinking about becoming a full time professor at DePaul. If and when he gets fired from the SCORE. I mean he got this midday gig. But he's barely been working at the SCORE the last 4 or 5 years. When he set out to get his masters he didn't know he'd get middays. So he's just being prepared. Something to fall back on. I think you have to have your masters to be a professor. I could be wrong. |

Given how cringe-inducingly awkward and creepy he has always been with women on the air and how hard he tries to prove he's hetero I am stunned, STUNNED, he has not gotten himself in hot water for saying or doing something inappropriate to a female student or colleague. He has gone the "She's like my sister!" route with colleagues (Cheryl Scott) after coming on to them on the air. |

I wondered same Tad. Reminds me of a guy I knew claiming he was a Gator because he got an online MBA from Florida. Weird thing is Laurence said he went down to the graduation ceremony. |

Weird thing is Laurence said he went down to the graduation ceremony. Of course he did. No one would see him if he announced his own name, marched down to the mailbox to get his diploma, then went back in the house. |

Need a leery section no doubt https://www.robertfeder.com/2019/04/26/ ... latlining/ Quote: It’s shaping up to be quite a year for Laurence Holmes. Last month the popular Chicago sportscaster signed a new multiyear contract and was promoted to weekday afternoon host at Entercom sports/talk WSCR 670-AM. Now comes word he’s about to receive a master’s degree in journalism from the University of Alabama, where he’s been studying remotely for two years. Holmes will pick up his diploma next week in Tuscaloosa. “I’m glad that I’ll be able to add that to some of my teaching at DePaul [University],” he said. “The experience was really mind-blowing to go back to being a student again.”

He probably got told what DePaul or anyone should have told him before. No minimum Masters no more adjunct work. |

Be that as it may a college instructor or prof has to have a certain level of education. Hell a HS teacher without a master's is a bit stuck. |

I think Sir has a great work ethic and puts out a competent, but not spectacular product. You cannot deny he is a little strange. He seems developmentally stunted in his interactions with women. |

again, need a new section for the Leery show. He does seem to be taking a lot of stuff from his 3-4 hour nighttime show into the 2 hour midday slot where it doesn't seem like an appropriate use of time. The in-studio longform with fetching anchorwomen, non-sports asides, a 'rundown' segment (it's about the topics of that day, at noon, or something. Seems like a "Holmes original" that is anything but. Oh shit it's the pulse for a new generation!) that can just go. you have a prime slot now (do not mean the anchorwomen...) the show will program itself with sportzzzz talk |
