Tuned in from 1:41 to 1:45.

This show is like a bowl of unflavored ice milk with boogers.

Does anyone listen to this show on a regular basis? There are never any posts here so I'm assuming not.

Listen may be a bit of a strong word but I tune in around 11 everyday on lunch. I made the switch once Mac left but I can't say it's good radio. I generally go back and forth between this and Snapper because I loath commercials. Carm is bland and Jurko is useless a good 75% of the time but I still find both more palatable than Spiegs. I still think both midday shows need a third host.

Jurko solo! Might be...different!

Jurko shines when he respects his cohort. He and Mac gelled well. Carmen just isn't a good fit for him...he's too literal and doesn't seem comfortable with Jurko. Carmen was best with Silvy, and always will be.

Jurko tends to be aloof a little too much when he's in this kind of environment. He needs to be needled, challenged...he can be hilarious when he's "on".

I agree. I sort of listen. I like both hosts but it's not very good.

Don't hear them much. But I've caught some and Carm is a dolt. Or a male bimbo. I doubt he's like that in real life. He seems scared to say anything controversial or overly critical. ESPN has probably told him to be a nice boy. Jurko says shit and Carm tries to ignore him or quicly move on. It's weird.

"The Carmen & Jurko Show" is a professional-sounding broadcast but it is a bit dull at times. In my opinion the strict reputation of ESPN has got to weigh on the minds of the broadcasters. Compared to ESPN Radio, I believe the on-air hosts of The Score enjoy more creative freedom from CBS for their broadcasts, and that difference is going to reflect in the radio broadcast produced.

ding ding. plus, even with silvy, it was silvy that was the edgy one. but carmen would give his opinions more. i think he just felt more comfortable.

DeFalco's greatest contribution was uttering the word "Clown-bag." And that's all I have to say about that.
