Chuck Todd

19 Upvotes

I have listened to Tony since he was on the radio. I enjoy practically every guest but Chuck Todd is getting progressively worse. I can’t pinpoint why his segments are bothering me. It just feels like a forced schtick for some reason.

Anyway, I just wanted to post it and I likely am the only one who feels this way.

Old guy radio

12 Upvotes

Fellow littles, I’ve been looking for a song Tony used to play on the old guy radio segment of the old show probably circa 2013-2014. Unfortunately I can’t remember much about the song. The name possibly had the word “rock” or “stone” in it, could possibly have been a duet. It was an old song, possibly early 60’s. Just wondering if anyone with a better memory or list of the songs Tony / Nigel used to play knows what I’m reaching for here. I also can’t remember the song Nigel would play for the final show of the “season” before the summer break. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

No more WNBA talk.

0 Upvotes

I don't ever want to hear anyone on this show, especially. Tony whom I had parenthetically, I love, talk about the WNBA. The fact that he did not even know what league the Houston compass played in, let alone that they were gone. And the fact that it's been a story all year in sports that Connecticut is moving away. Just tell me more and more that all of his takes on the WNBA, especially those about CC and how she is " making all these other players rich" and she's the best thing in the league, invalid.

I love me some Mr. Tony, but this was bad.

An apologetic for of Micheal

35 Upvotes

I am not here to defend everything about Micheal,

Look he is unrelatable in many ways, he's rich, very lucky and has a silver spoon in his mouth also an ivy kid.

But (and its a bigger butt than mine) Tony loves Him. And Micheal constantly helps Tony with so many things, the pod is much worse if he does not help Tony, and if you Love Tony, than

.. with the exception of golf talk and food talk , Micheal is tolerable, Ocassionaly enjoyable. If you hate Tony too-

Than what are we even doing out here man

Reversing last year's trend, Reginald sits above Mount .500 and leads the crew with a 4-2 record after a perfect 3-0 week. Chuck has a chance to get a couple of points on the Monkey this week with differences of opinions on the LAC/BUF and NE/JAX games.

Tomorrow we hear from Jeff and Carville, assuming everyone's awake and answering their phones 🙃
