We went to a break after I talked about the board and Sparkins says, "I should do a Q&A with those guys."

Well, look who's descending from Twitter Mountain to mingle with the commoners. Now you're thinkin'. We value getting in front of 300 slappies in a gin mill for a show for the grass roots level promotion, why the fuck wouldn't we value the 300 or so slappies here?

Fire away. The Kid likes talking about things, especially radio, weed and himself.

Parkins, where do you see radio in 10 years? Will the podcast genre destroy radio or could we see radio reverting back to less corporate influence to bring it back to a more personal connection, ala the Score in the early days?

Following up Sin, did the highest you've ever been have the sudden-urge-to-be-gay side effect? Your cousin you did the odd jobs gig with?

Parkins, I spent a lot of time in the KC area and took in a lot of KC sports talk. Just wondering what your opinion is of Kevin Kietzman? I was a regular listener of KK back in the early days when he helped lead a walkout of fans at the Royals game. People in KC seem to either love the dude or absolutely HATE him....a little like people around Chicago with Bernsie. Any good stories with him?

Ok nevermind the swallow.
I do have a question I ask at all these silly ask whomever threads and I never get an answer. So I'll try again.

Is it Ill-annoy, illa-noy, ill-a-noise or ill-anoys?

Parkins, don't you think it is somewhat emasculating to Kansas that the state of Missouri has taken the name Kansas City and made it their own? And it's a real city too -- not some sleepy dump like Michigan City, Indiana. Do you think the Kansans ever petitioned and tried to make Missouri change the name to Missouri City? Well if they did, tough luck because there is already a Missouri City, Missouri elsewhere in the state. Looks like Missouri has all the angles covered in city naming. Just looking for your thoughts.

Parkins do you believe that you are at the point where the student has passed his teacher? How does it feel knowing that you will be the face of the station for many years to come? Why do you hog the mic during interviews?

Danny, I think we can all agree that... that in this... day... and age of radio and I mean when you really look at it its certainly changing I mean when I got started... more years ago than I would care to admit now but when that happened things were you know very different in how you'd talk and what you would talk about and sometimes those things that worked back then wouldn't work now I mean take a look at North for example I mean he was a totally loose you know loose ah... ah... cannon and for a long time it was like well he was the guy you know you would ah... you'd ahh... look to to see like what to do and how to say and now with the changes and the way things ahh... are changing and how omg sgonthat was I mean we were in a little closet of a studio back then with our elbows to teakettles you know and now whoah how... I mean how different I mean look around you and you see how the room is big and there is all digital editing and no one is cutting and splicing tape together you just move around... a ah... a ahh... a mouse and a couple clicks and it's done so when you look at how much the industry has you know evolved and the evolution that's sure to come could you talk about that?

Ok, I think I'll paste this here:

A few Questions:

Why don't you guys ever try to get crazy with getting top guests on? I mean maybe even Top Guests from time to time who maybe aren't even trying to shamelessly plug anything.

It would be cool to have Mike Tyson on, or have a recurring segment where you like have a top or even an up-and-coming comedian on every Thursday or something. How has local guy Pat McGann or other local comedians never been on a show?

Kind of like how Joe Rogan, etc. does it. Shit, have him on! You don't have to be tied to sports or even touch politics to be super "Interesting Radio".

Are you guys somehow afraid of being shown-up by a more charismatic guest?

I love how you do things, I just think that you could be doing it so much better - and bigger.

That's all for tonite - thanks for listening.

Heard Parkins say he got a new 2 year deal today( congrats) imo he's the best host in town.. he also joked he's in a new tax bracket ( HA! fuck you Larry) so how big a raise buddy?

I'm guessing he went from 140k to 205 k yearly.

You sit down at a new $1/2 no limit Hold Em table at the Mirage. Everyone buys in for $300. You’re sitting in a middle position and are dealt pocket kings on the first hand. The guy under the gun shoves all in. The next guy calls. Your third to act. Do you call or fold?
