The jokes they do are not very funny!! They try to mimic the Boers and Bernstein show and fail horribly.

All I hear is 2 screaming fat asses on the radio and that's their number 1 show? :lol:

Never listen to this show anymore.

Did listen about a month ago on a Friday morning, briefly, and they had Buffone on and it had to be the worst segment. Doug was so wound up, and Mulli and Hanley were laughing like school girls at everything he said -- kind of like Cole and Lawler pretend laugh at some bad bit happening inside a WWE ring.

Dont think they really do "jokes", much more of telling funny stories on the air of life events.

Really dont think they mimic BB, but I do think Mully will call a guy out and they are not looking to make fun of people, Like lil Danny is, but they will if the chance presents itself.

Mulligan will not jump on a poorly educated meatball caller, just to make fun of him, he will let the guy speak and make a point, no matter how foolish it is. Bernsie will jump on every little word a guy says.

Their stories are not funny, bigtater.

And just what is the value in doing that?

Mully interrupts callers all the time. Why does it matter if he is berating them ala Bernstien, or interrupting to make a dumb joke? He does not simply "let guys speak"

Hell I don't even listen to this show as much as you, bigfan, and you still can't get it right.

I don't listen just like you don't watch or listen to White Sox games.

Well I am just glad you didnt turn something back to me again, because that would be very unlike you

Bad callers are funny when mixed in with some decent callers. Not when the only people you let on the air are 75 year old guys who forgot why they called.

Comedy

But it's not really comedy if the hosts take a caller's stupidity seriously.

There's a way to let them finish their crazy thought (might be funny) and chuckle with/at them without treating them seriously.

Mac is good at it

Mully and Hanley both pulled a Bernstein this morning and chided a caller for using "we".

Granted it was a Packer fan, probably Keeping Score, but still...

Not saying they dont do it, but not call after call after call...like Lil Danny does. Just gets old knowing that he is going to attack every caller, everyone is an idiot, except his pet callers, like West Side Rod, who I dont know for my life, but because he has called before Dan talks to him like a person.

It was just odd hearing it from someone else.

If not even Mully and Hanley are immune to the Bernsification of the station, I fear no one is safe.

I bet Dan is a lot more polite in person with the meatballs.

You're right Jimmy. He is nice to meatballs in person.

He is often emboldened by the safe distance of a phone line.
