the top performers it says are 6 figures. but i dont think Parkins is considered an all star host , well at least not yet.

Once again, what do you think a producer makes?

Zawawski is in his 40s with a kid and a house. Shep had a kid and a house before he got fired. Keep that in mind, if you think a host makes 35k, I'm curious what you have the number at for a guy like Zawawski and Shep

I want you to answer that.

i just told you in my last post :

those guys have kids and homes because their wives are the ones making the money. not them. North/Mac salaries you are quoting are from 20 and 10 years old. different ball game now.

a producer is probably making barely 30/32.

Where's Vito? He's in the biz. He'll know definitely as he was a producer both at the score and am 1000.

Once again, what do you think a producer makes?

i just said it 3 billion times - 30/32 a year

So you think the host makes 35k and the producer makes 32k? You're stupid.

no if you think parkins is making 6 figures on a 2nd contract then you're the fucking idiot.

you asked me for an estimate and i gave you one. but now i think my estimate was too high - producers are probably making like 25 to 28k.

i even gave you the industry stats from ADP and you ignore them. Do you know what ADP even is?

I'm with RFDC on this one- keep being wrong.

The only guy here who knows for sure is Vito bec he works in the industry. He's the only guy who i'd take seriously when it comes to talking about radio salaries.

Bernstein has a nice house in the city, eats at nice restaurants, takes trips to Europe, sending a kid to college, about to send another one. And you think he's doing it on a 35k salary.

You're stupid.

There’s no way Parkins would not be making six figures.

now your changing the story and resorting to name calling which is the first sign you've lost your argument.

you were talking parkins, not bernstein. bernstien like i stated before probably makes way more and 6 figures because he's been in the industry for 20+ years and is a vet. he was on successful shows.

Probably not parkins. not just yet. if he is great, more power to him.

And just for your information, you act like all these guys are single and buying big homes and taking trips to Europe and sending kids to college all by themselves. These guys have another source of income from their spouses i'm sure. maybe bernstein's wife doesn't have to work because he's earn his dough but those other guys have their wives/gf's pitching in.

ya this is all speculation. i admit that. we don't really know - its all guessing.

beardown is taking this personally with no facts. i challenged his radio world view in his head and he can't stand it. weird.

But Parkins is working in afternoon drive, you idiot. That's where you get the most ad revenue. He's not making 35k. He's absolutely 6 figures.

Bernstein's wife is a wedding organizer. I doubt that's big money.

Not at all. I was offended by your stupidity.

I dont know that he is making 6, but he is closer to 6 than what HY is saying.

there you go ahead with the insults. why are you so angry? im trying to discuss this with you but for some reason you're offended and aruging.

Like I said before, the bulls aren't winning 6 championships which is driving revenue for all sports media. Things are down. it doesn't matter what 'drive' you're in. I could be wrong - I can admit that unlike you - but w/ the way things are i find it foolish for any sports radio place to dish out 6 figures to a virtual unknown.

ok sure. keep posting your speculation here like fact. it's entertaining to read and an interesting view into obsession.

I'm not angry. I'm laughing. And yes, I am insulting you. Doesn't mean I'm angry. Just means I'm insulting you.

thanks i'll take this as a win. not that i care but it probably irkes you by me saying that.

Parkin's trust fund has kicked in.

Nobody here ever irkes me. Trust me when I say that. And you obviously do care.

Congrats on your perceived win. But you're still stupid.

You two battling is like Brady VS Mahomes

Nah. I'm a combination of "Brady & Mahomes". He's Nick Foles.

So he’s a Super Bowl MVP?

Who really cares what he's making? He's still a smug twat.

No. He's the current Bears QB version.

Surprising 2 posters to get into a pissing contest.

The two highest paid talents currently in the Chicago market are Eric Ferguson and Sir Larry. I think Noisewater knows exactly what Sir makes. He can talk about it on the podcast.

I thought I saw him walkin' up to The Hill
With Elon, Tulsi, and Don

About year ago Mac made a comment he saw Parkins adding up the years salary from various gigs on his phone calculator in studio. He didn't say what it was only that he crossed that threshold in the mid 90s for the first time. Makes me think 100k when you include his national work once a week.

To steal from Mac I’m not sure why a main show host would get out of bed for less than 100k. In Chicago for sure. So weird from the top Dahl and even North earning years.
