Had the honour of being the first caller to Les's opening show!

Great to hear him back on. Let's get some Illini and Kane County Cougar talk going!

Les just said an old friend from Hyde Park is on the line. Could it be Barack? Better not be wild bill.

It's good to have him back. The best part of his show is that you'd hear at least 10 minutes of talk before he would go to commercial. Also he generally doesn't hang up on callers.

I thought the first 30 minutes was rather awkward. The first few callers were strange and had nothing more to say than welcome back. It seemed like Les wanted the callers to stay on the line to talk but they jumped off.
But it's great to hear Les again instead of the David Stein suckfest!

I wonder if there is anyway to tape Les' show. I can't stay up that late and expect to get anything done in the morning. I wish they would make the whole thing available on the website.

I must have been living under a rock because i had no idea that Les was coming back. Talk about a nice surprise when I hear his voice.

How long has it been since he was on overnights? Had to be around the All-Star game in Seattle...circa 2001?

I'm looking forward to some old time callers...if theya re still alive. Wild Bill, and Tom from Hangover Park.

Wild Bill called on Les first show. I remember listening to Les and T-Dub overnights before it was replaced with Fox Sports Radio and then Sporting News Radio.

I'm gonna listen to all of the shows from the last couple nights. I have to get my Grobber fix in case they get rid of him again. I used to think TW was obnoxious, but now I miss him too. He had that sports trivia game where one guy would say a player's name and then the next guy would have to say a name that started with that letter. I think it was called Initial Reaction.

Thank Mitch for rehiring Les Grobstein.

That SOB David Stein! I am going to find him, re-addict him to pornography and alcohol, and then I will addict him to cocaine as well. Fucking hearing AA at 2 AM is not what I need.

So he's a bad guy because he likes to be positive?

I actually liked listening to the stories on the David Stein show -- they were a change of pace. Some of the gimmicks ('winner winner, chicken dinner!', scenes from the remake of Fever Pitch) were quite tiresome but overall the callers seemed genuine and their stories were uplifting. I, on occasion, did do random acts of kindness.

At least they have the shows on the web, so I can still listen.

No, AA is not a positive thing for addicts because it teaches addicts the erroneous belief that they are powerless children. Instead of ignoring the bad things in your life and sweeping them under the rug of "What's something good in your life?" he should be asking, "What are you doing to deal with the problems that bring you pain?" Because you know what? If you just sweep your problems under the rug, then eventually you are going to build a little hill and trip over them and take a hard fall.

And pornography addiction.... What a sham of an addiction! YOU REALLY REALLY LIKE PORN BECAUSE YOU ARE A MAN!



Anyway the Lee Elia Tirade is the most positive thing in many people's lives and we have the Grobber to thank for that.

I actually like David Stein.

Also did the Grobber tape the Lee Elia thing?

Yes he did. Read the youtube info here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uv23pqH9iG0

I don't like David Stein sorry. If that makes me evil, then I am evil. I just can't stand his AA like crap, deal with your problems people and you won't need to drink to avoid them.

Dating a girl that's into pornography is amazing!

Maybe he's going to start earlier? Doesn't he start between 1-2 most nights?

Yeah, I thought that too. He used the word "timing" when mentioning this. Maybe the Score is gonna drop the Dan Patrick show all together. He said the announcement might be made during the Danny Mac show. We'll see.

Grobber will be starting at 10pm, Dan Patrick comes on at 1am. Apparently Grobber comes back from 4a-5a? An earlier start is definitely easier on the guy and his crew but I don't understand why they'd have him stick around to do 4a-5a. I also hope they don't drop Dan Patrick altogether - I like the show enough that I'll listen in to the delay when I get a chance, but I don't know if I would ever bother to go after the podcast.

This makes no sense. They need to drop dan patrick altogether or just move him to podcast only.
