Anyone can yell at an idiot like Bernstein. It's so meh.

Mac on the other hand is a master at the art of the idiot caller. He knows how to deliver a stinging dismissal to the caller without him even knowing it (theatrical irony in its classical sense) with a few words followed by hanging up. When he does it, it's true beauty, and I mark out - as much as I did when I saw the Blackhawks game 1 OT goal versus the Wild.

I think the numbers bear out that Mac is better at just about every facet of radio than Bernsy.

Mac's producer screens out the idiots. Dan's producer screens in the idiots.

Drinky doesn't screen anyone. The few times I have called I am only asked my name, where I am calling from, and what I want to talk about/who I want to crap.

I have not called a Mackeyfish show since the MJH days but back then I was waiting once on hold to chime in on something and was told they were moving on to another topic and to call back again later.

By that logic, the numbers also bear out that Taco Bell is better at every facet of food than Rick Bayless.

Your post does nothing to refute Hatchetman's thesis regarding B&B.

Not true.

My logic would mean that El Jardin is better than Rick Bayless.

But there is more to it than just popular numbers. If I argue in that direction though, it looks like I am arguing a matter of taste.

I think it was fairly obvious that he wasn't refuting, but agreeing with, Zizou's point.

You really need to improve your reading comprehension.

Well it really is one or the other big guy. I took Zizou's post to confirm that there is actually a more organized screening process on Mac's show, which would agree with Hatchetman. But if you just want to play the semantics game, the parts you bolded clearly indicate that you were wrong in saying the post did nothing to refute the notion that drinky screens in idiot callers. Pick a lane.

Hatchetman said that B&B screen in the idiots.

Zizou countered by stating that there is no screening on the B&B show.

As evidence of his point, Zizou claimed that when he calls the show, he is let on the air with little resistance.

My point is that Zizou's "proof" actually supports Hatchetman's assertion.

In other words, the B&B really does screen idiots in.

It was a joke, which probably explains why you didn't understand it.

You think anyone actually reads Hachetman and Zizou's posts?

Is Mac really "handling" the idior callers? He just tunes them out and moves on to the next caller.
