Sounds about as entertaining as the MNEN 30 minute 5 minute racist half hour or whatever the fuck it is that ass clown fucknugget does.

I gave Dahl a shot around 10 years ago when he was doing afternoons on CKG. I would listen when I was out on service calls before MJH (back when they started at 3). He was just meh. Maybe it's because I was only 22 at the time, but I didn't see the attraction.

Yeah, you're probably a little young for Dahl. Guys like A7X, badrogue and I hit him at the right time. There's was nothing like him when he first hit Chicago. As he got older and he changed, his core audience was getting older and making the same kind of life changes. Somewhere in there he lost me. Now he's the cranky old guy that I'm trying my best not to be. I'm probably failing at it, but I certainly don't need to listen to another one on the radio everyday.

Yeah, it's a total generational thing. I'm older, and the shit he talks about appeals to me. I have a good friend that's 31, and he doesn't dig Dahl either. I'm just getting old, as are the people I grew up listening to. I'm just glad I'm still alive to hear it.

I started listening to Dahl when I was in 6th grade. The guy was every bit as good as Stern at his height. Then he rehabbed and wrapped his show around Dave Mc Bride and Joy Masada. It suddenly turned into a WGN level production...safe, old and boring. He got better again with Buzz but the magic just wasn't there.

I always hated aloha friday and the shitty hawaiian music he would play. Even worse was when he'd have some nondescript hawaiin singer in the studio for 2 hours on a friday.

Right! He always used to be strokin that Henry Kopono guy. Who fucking cares? I don't care about his band or his musical aspirations either, though I did like the old parody songs. The worst was around 1992, when they were in Hawaii. He decided he was gonna learn the steel guitar. He would spend half the show getting shitfaced and trying badly to play. No wonder Meier got the fuck out. The Masada/McBride period was the worst, and Wendy Snyder was brutal too.

Say what you want about Mac, but I've never found him to be stupid. He's been is the business 25 years, and he's been around a lot of talented people. He's learned what to do, and more importantly what not to do.

Does Mac have enough "guy talk" stuff for a WGN slot?

First post. Welcome to the show!

Thanks Finfer.

I don't think who a person knows is an indicator of intelligence.

That's not Finfer...he has his own login (Finji) that he can give his bad thoughts from
