A Mac, Jurko and Harry podcast, you say?
I was looking for something to add to my "Things I Couldn't Give Two Shits About" collection.

Come on Mac. They ripped you way more than that. Even Drinky got in on it. And he's a dumbass. They've slandered you as a degenerate. A nobody. A never has been. A low life. An addict. A know nothing. They don't dedicate hours to it. Obviously. It happens gradually. Like poison. Over a year or two. In random tangents. You need to fight back. Make it happen! Take the airwaves back! We'll fight with you. Be our fearless leader.

Love to hear a Dan McNeil rip into the 320 lb butterball update fumbler- Internet begger.

Yes. MJH made me a sports radio fan.

But Beerdown, I am an addict. A hillbilly. A know-nothing (about the precious NBA at least). Those shots are things I've said about myself.

312 player: which one?

1. An engaged Mac who is interested and cares = Good.

2. Harry = Bad. Soul-crushingly bad. A "Are they paying him or is he paying them? It has to be the latter." level of bad.

3. Jurko = Bad. He didn't seem to put forth much effort during the original MJH and it doesn't sound like much has changed during his time with Carmen. I don't find his "clueless jock" schtick entertaining. He's not a dumb guy, stop pretending to be one.

I would probably check it out, but 2 and 3 would almost certainly prevent me from being a regular consumer.

If you are looking for a three-man booth I would find a combination of Mac, Ben Finfer, Rob Hart, or maybe even Connor McKnight to be more appealing that anything with Harry and Jurko.

People frequently complain about coaches being recycled and the same middling guys continuing to get jobs over and over and over again. This is what this feels like to me regarding Harry and Jurko.

Don't feed the mults.

Would there be a promise to keep all NBA talk to a minimum?

The behind-the-scenes stuff would be interesting, but would only take you so far.

Go for it. What do you have to lose?

Yes. I've enjoyed your work since the "Heavy Fuel Crew" days.

This wouldn't work as a podcast because it would need to be live and take calls, but there is a huge vacuum left for Bears post-game with the passing of Buffone. I'd love to hear you at 3 PM on Sundays this Fall.

I'm not interested in trashing anybody, unless it comes up organically. Unlike some other guys on radio's Black List, I'm not bitter. Got a lot out of radio. Grudges and bitterness are the types of behaviors that make people unhappy. I choose happiness.

Ask DiCaro to start a GoFundMe to pay for the podcast. She's good at that.

Gotta love the people who can't wait to hop in threads and tell you how much they don't care about the topic.

Anyway, like a couple others have said, Harry being on drags this down quite a bit, but I'd still listen.

I think it needs Harry.

He's distinctive.

They mock you for the drugs, your depression, being a cracker and mustard. Especially Goff. Plus they kind of portray you as a dumb ass when they imitate you.

For the record, I don't think you're a dumb ass. Nor do I think you're a cracker.

Yes, I would listen.

How can you get Jurko and Harry to do this when they work at WGN and WMVP? Isn't there some writing in their contracts where they can't?

Your dime, your dance floor.

So are nails on a chalkboard

Definitely would listen during football season. One gets tired of hearing about "mesh points".

Get drinky's ass on one of your shows. Then you could do drinky's podcast with his drinking buddy partner. You could help each other with promotion.

Beardown: Then both of you should do Doc's podcast to promote the podcasts. That will get you 10 more listeners.

Doc: Hey!!!!

Beardown: It's podcast heaven. Everybody helps everybody. At the end of the day, all of you will make millions. Except for Doc. Who will make nothing.

Doc: Hey!!!!!
