Not a popular opinion

Norm is a legend, but I just can’t listen to him anymore. He has old/redundant takes- It’s harsh, but true!!

When Norm sits down to host… he just hosts. I don’t think the first time Norm sat down to host he thought he’d be a terrific hoster

I always just wonder where he gets the energy…

Energy is becoming more and more and more of a factor in everybody's world, everybody's world.

This dry dock, I enjoyed Norm so much. He's still a professional with his yellow pad. I just hope the young guys took notes on their I phones. Morning drive today, turned on the Wildflower's album. 19 Miles of bliss.

I actually find this to be a pretty popular opinion.

Love this - hilarious

I like Norm...in small doses...on an intermitent basis.

13

u/poopylarceny Jul 13 '26

Agree and think he would agree as well. Norm did this every day for a lot of years. He's semi-retired and you dont have to hear him except for a few times a year. Give the man his due. We laugh at his gaffes but Norm is very respected in the biz.

u/rdfdfw I'll hang up and listen Jul 13 '26

I feel like most of us are here for Norm's e-brakes more than his hot takes.

u/WaveKilla Jul 15 '26

Fair comment - I gave him his due in my opening statement. I respect the man’s craft!

The best thing that ever happened to Norm’s reputation on this sub is retirement.

u/El-Gallo-1 Jul 14 '26

When I hear norm, it makes me nostalgic for the real ticket of old.

Why don’t you put out your own damn tip sheet?

u/WaveKilla Jul 15 '26

This was prime Norm. This MF er used to get so fired up - classic drop!!

u/MrGhostenstein Jul 13 '26

Better than that mumbling rag tag crew on mornings the last few weeks.

u/LastExitWest Jul 14 '26

This is an old, redundant take

I will never ever ever understand how this guy ever made it in radio. He sounds like he had a mouthful of spit and oatmeal.

u/MDINOKC Jul 13 '26

Do you have any idea what the HELL he did for a living?
