Thursday, Sept 4th
Hi Folks,

Getting ready for our Monday after the Bear game show at wildfirerestaurant.com. We will debut at 9:00 AM and go until 11:00 AM everyday Mon-Fri. These will also be available on podcast at http://www.northtonorth.com.

Have heard from many our listeners and advertisers and are building a solid and what we think will be a great show. Jen-Jen is back as executive producer, also the show will originate from Talk Zone in Morton Grove. There will be giveaways. email interaction, calls, and great guests. Rich Melman is the MAN for realizing and having the same vision as I do about where the web is heading. To me, it's still in its infancy and has so much room to grow. Also, thanks to Howard Katz of Wildfire for being a huge sponsor for us.

I wrote in my blog a few days ago that the Cubs were going to have some problems, and since then they have lost 5 straight. Big Z is a drama queen from numbness in his fingers to shoulder problems, to fighting in the dugout, to being one of the biggest head cases in baseball. Ryan Dempster is the Ace of the staff. In fact I've said all along that Zambrano was not the ace. Last year it was Lily. We will see, but at least the Brewers are losing also. Hope everyone tunes in Monday to hopefully talk about a Bears win, and both baseball teams in 1st Place.
Take Care, Mike.

PS Oprah promoting Chicago, loving Chicago for Olympics. Staying here when she could relocate anywhere and do her show. Am I warming up to her? I think so!
PPS I'll be on Ch 11 This Week In Review on Friday night at 7:00 with Joel Weisman. Cheek it out!

Way to change it up Pappy, nothing like keeping bad radio on track or is it webcast? I love how he thinks email interaction is a bit. Honest to god, someone in his inner circle must really hate him to have him doing this. I dont know, but who here thinks rich met pappys 1mil demands?

Oh WTF? He hates message boards, his guys aint computer guys, he cant turne on a computer and internet people are pants around the ankles losers, now he has a vision. This is why I will always call this sack of sorry shit out when he does this. This guy is out of his fucking mind to think people will buy this.

He really is a classic bullshiter.

Vision? You're right Rodeo. He's made fun of people for using the internet. It was always "When we'ze wuz kids we never needed da internet. We'ze turned out fine."

Seeing the name of Mike North, the man who shunned computers and those who used them for years, along with the words 'vision' and 'web' in the same sentence really cracked me up. All of a sudden he's got a vision for where the web is heading? A couple of months ago, he didn't know enough to print up-to-date baseball standings from the Internet to read on the air, now he's some kind of expert with a vision for the future.

Could this guy, EVER, just once, open his mouth without revealing himself to be totally full of shit?

This isn't vision it's "taking whatever you can".

There is no money in this shit.

I also remember North making fun of Howard Stern for going to Satelite Radio. He said something like "Regular radio is da only thing. Dis satelite stuff is garbage."

Imagine that. North making fun of Stern. The guy he tried to copy. Stern is getting 30 million a year.

Maybe a bit petty on my part, but I dunno, he did pass the ged, so I do expect perfection. For the record, if it wasnt for spell check, I would be exposed as the dumb-ass I am. :wink:

I love how he thinks the web is in its "infancy"

Hey North, we've been out here for 16 years man. That's like saying you're in your "infancy" as a radio personality.

Granted, you can be considered "infantile" but that might be a word Bebe needs to explain to yous.

More like 100 million a year.

By the way, wasn't Melman on record as saying he didn't know anything about internet radio. Strong vision.

I'm telling you North is this slow motion multi-vehicle crash with fatalities that just won't stop...and he is in every vehicle.

From northtonorth:

"Listen Live starting Monday, Sept 8th, Mon-Fri from 9AM-11AM to The Mike North Webio Show. Go to wildfirerestaurant.com to hear Mike with Jen Patterson producing."

Like "Jen Patterson producing" is a hook to get people to listen to this worthless shit. It's so cute the way he promotes her and makes it sound like she's so important.

She isjust like Mike, she likes to see her name in the paper or wherever, she needs to see it, it give her self-worth, its dysfunctional, but its who she is.

Jens producing? Good thing I learned of this. Now I will be listening for sure. Because if Jens producing, its a must listen. Because if she's not, then I'm pretty sure it wont be top notched entertainment.

This is easily explanable. North in his mind still thinks it's 1996. He's stuck in time. That's why his act never changes.

Now that Mike's such a big Internet guy, will he be doing his Wildfire show with his pants around his ankles like all of us?

That's the only way to maximize the jenjen "production" value.

I was always a fan of Mike's, I'll tune in. Logistics are a b**ch though as far as listening on a consistent basis is concerned.
