Does Mitch Rosen think LoHo is a good host these days? I think he is below average and as good as he is ever going to get. Listening to him and Spiegel is not a good show. At least Spiegel keeps Holmes off his intentional tangents that he thinks make him cool in some bizarro world of anti decent radio.

You can blame me. I enjoy listening to him! This hasn't been that bad today.

Spiegel complaining about how people save parking spots in Chicago for a second straight day was an instant PTFB button for me. When I flipped back he said people on the East coast need to "man up" and deal with the snow and the inconveniences it brings. OK...

Laurence being there today makes it unlikely I'll flip back again.

People on the East Coast do need to man up and deal. Our office in NJ is closed today and my office is stuck with their crap. We never close

At least there's interested talk regarding both major sports currently in progress this time of year.

Two projects I have involve people in Upper Saddle River, NJ. Their office is closed, too, but at least they're working from home.

Ike, pull your head out of your rear. I'm not faulting the guy for busting his ass, I'm faulting him because he sucks on the air.

Only to go on his own. Some of his thoughts are weird & a waste of time to me.

No, not really. Actually I don't hate LoHo, that's a pretty strong word. There are just several other people I'd rather listen to.

No it's not; give him a listen sometime.

To paraphrase the philosopher P. Griffin, LoHo is pretty much "shallow and pedantic".

Holmes must suck a MEAN....

How else can you explain how a guy with no talent has his own show and fills in for "star" hosts? There are talented guys like Goff and Drinky that have to sit on the bench for a hack like him.

Anyone ever think that Holmes is already being paid, so it's an easy choice?

That's the most logical explanation. He is still under contract, so it makes more sense to get the most you can out of him...

And screw the 6-10 slot, the one he's supposed to be building audience for. Yeah I know, that's on the PD for not having any sense. Really, if they feel that way, why bother with an assigned host at all? Rotate the update guys in that slot; play the Dan Patrick show! Shark will listen to the latter.

I wonder what Hampton's contract state is. E.g., use him as the designated hitter if he's still being paid 'weekday show' scale.

You would rather hear Hampton over Larry?

I'm not a Holmes guy, but compared to Hamp, Larry is appointment radio.

No, that's an opinion. Both Jason and Matt are nice guys; they had a chance at being fill in hosts. Management; for whatever reason, does not use them anymore. Probably has to do with that they WEREN'T good enough for the numbers they brought in.

LoHo is being PAID for a daytime shift after being displaced by Danny Mac. Hence, you use the guy YOU ARE ALREADY PAYING FOR.
