Who ARE these dimwits substituting for Stephanie Miller?
Steph runs a nice show, for a 'morning zoo' type show with a bit of politics. I tune in for some laughs.

Whoever these two are are idiots.

Yes, I'm changing the station. No gold or mattress purchases today. Or 'interviews' with Tanya Roberts.

2. You've got to be kidding.
I've turned it off, but those girls are morons with irritating voices.

Lionel is NOT a moron but he does have a voice that irritates some people. Kind of like Joe Pesci.

There's no accounting for taste I suppose.

Here's an emoticon for you: :hi:

5. I'm workin' on my curmudgeonly. How am I doin'?
I like Boosler & Marko. Funny.

I've turned the 'frangelica"(?) show back on.

We'll see. Or hear, rather.

:hi:

7. Let us know if your opinion changes at all after listening longer.
Good for you for giving it another shot.

I'm not a big Boosler/Marko fan for some reason. I like these guys better.

Yesterday was the first time I heard them. I didn't hear the entire show but what I heard was cracking me up.

Of course, nobody could replace Steph and the Mooks.

11. No. It's not working for me.
I've switched to KPOJ in Portland, OR. Thom Hartmann usually does his show from here & 'stops by' in the 8 o'clock hour on their morning show. It's local. Traffic, weather, weekly slot with Rep. Peter DeFazio (a stellar congressman, BTW.)

I like the way Elayne Boosler identifies her stints as Steph substitute as the 'roasting'(Thanksgiving & Christmas) & 'grilling' (Labor day & Memorial Day) holidays.

Just a funny little thing that makes one 'like' a radio entertainer.

Like I say though, there's no accounting for taste.

Play on...

:hi:

10. They annoyed me yesterday
Especially when the "comedy" was just Frances echoing the last word of every sentence Angela uttered. But they actually grew on me; I enjoyed listening today. And I'll definitely listen tomorrow.
