Anyone out there, including my posse, have any good, timely, jokes for the mattress man come Friday? UPDATE: OK, JUST SEND 'EM VIA E-MAIL "SWEETJACK" NOTES: Mark everything: SWEETJACK.
I say you girls and boys
Something tells me that the Sweetjack/KGOne lines will be loaded. Don't forget, give 'em a good joke. Think "mattress", think Dec. 1 too. It's a date I expect you to know all about.

ReplyDeleteAfter a two year long study, The National Science Foundation announced the following results on Corporate America's recreation preferences:
1. The sport of choice for unemployed people is: BASKETBALL
2. The sport of choice for maintenance level employees is: BOWLING
3. The sport of choice for front line workers is: FOOTBALL
4. The sport of choice for supervisors is: BASEBALL
5. The sport of choice for middle management is: TENNIS
6. The sport of choice for corporate officers is: GOLF
CONCLUSION: The higher you are in the corporate structure, the smaller your balls become.
This is about the only Ronn show I enjoy. Unfortunately I don't believe they take calls that hour. The two hosts read jokes that have been emailed to them. That's it.
ReplyDeleteThe way this worked the last time I heard it was you were supposed to email your jokes in and THEY get to read them. They don't allow callers on the air for this topic. I am sure that will hold true this time, in light of their callous behavior toward their listeners.
ReplyDelete808-0810 works from all Bay Area area codes that have a "0" or a "1" in the middle, e.g., 415, 510, 408. It does NOT work from newfangled area codes that have other numbers in the middle, such as 925, 650, etc. This because the phone folks wouldn't give the numbers out that way when they rolled out the new area codes. People in such area codes should dial the traditional old school area code nearest them if concerned about tolls.
ReplyDeletelistening to ronn Owens live for first time since early December. Wow what a difference from just a month ago. He sounds completely deflated with fake enthusiasm greeting callers. Kgo stregnth had always been dissecting election results. But today they are talking about movies.
ReplyDeleteAnd whenever I check in to get the pulse of the show, there are usually at least 2 topics per each hour because there are few callers, emails and facebook posts to fill up the time. I wonder if Ronn is still as excited about the new format as he was a month ago. Some lady today asked if it was Jared screening the calls because he was so good and so nice. Ever heard that from a caller before? NO!! Somebody's putting these callers up to this. Pathetic
ReplyDeleteBTW, they did talk politics today --for less than 30 minutes.

ReplyDeleteI've noticed that as well... and it seems to be happening with all the hosts I have dropped in on... Ronn here and there (tho I have never been a fan) as well as a sampling of the weekend offerings.
If it were occasional, or not all the hosts I have bothered with, it might be spontaneous, but obviously not.
Excuse my ignorance.......but, would someone tell me what is meant by the SweetJack term?
ReplyDelete8:43, then how do you explain Ronny boy? No guts, no balls? Jared was born without a pair.
ReplyDeleteJared, get a grip, dude. You are in way over your head. Ira Blue, you ain't. Brian Sussman, you will be! See what you have to look forward to? An idiot who shills for big corporations so he can be little big man at sycophantic East Bay Tea Party rallies. Oh, boy, Sussman, you're a BIG man. Take Jared with you. Maybe you can both get a real degree from Glenn Beck University and be like Glenn Beck and be a self-taught man who learns everything he knows from a public library (Oh, did I mention Beck wants to remove tax money from libraries and have them privately supported?) Heil, Jared! (Sussman, since you cannot understand the nuances and complexities of foreign languages, as you have so ignorantly demonstrated with Arabic and the word Allah, heil means I'm a kiss-ass, ball-less wonder.)
ReplyDeleteWhen I first started hearing spots for "SweetJack" back in October, I assumed it was something like LoJack for your Halloween candy, so the cops could track down the big bullies who swiped your Snickers from you.
ReplyDeleteApparently it is some kind of Groupon wannabe.
And I originally thought "Groupon" was a contraction used by hipsters when referring to "Grey Poupon."
11:10 -- I do not want to sound paranoid but do you think perhaps the Cumulus "suits" have rules limiting Ronn from discussing aspects of the political races this year?
ReplyDeleteI too miss the morning after big primaries when you could discuss the results, the implications, and share the insight of many people from throughout the Bay Area. I miss my KGO community.
@11:10--I do not think you are paranoid.
ReplyDeleteI noticed earlier this year that Ronn had started the nationwide media mantra that "It's likely Obama will NOT be re-elected."
If I hadn't heard other "pundits" repeating the hype, I would have just thought Ronn was stating his own off the wall view.
Now, I have to wonder how long Ronn has had a muzzle on!
and p.s.--LMAO. " The Republicans are really going to give Barak a run for his money this year.IN YOUR DREAMS!!!
Election results?
ReplyDeleteRonn Owens is too busy watching reruns of
Survivor.
Ronn Owens the TV groupie.
SweetJack is owned by Cumulus and is a wanna-be Groupon, but much more inferior.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'll give you a R&B Joke for Friday and throughout the weekend:
ReplyDeleteIt's Karel Bouley.
There are few bigger laffers at KGONE Radio.
