*"Rich doesn't show pictures of male TV anchors and reporters!" Yeah, because I'm not interested in seeing Sal Castaneda's legs.
THERE WERE MANY REASONS ERIC THOMAS WANED OUT AT KGO; among the biggest: a total resentment of the fat slob GM, Tom Cibrowski, who has the people skills of a blind Russian hooker. Thomas isn't exactly Mr. Sunshine but he was a near 30-year vet at Circle7. I loved the fact he didn't take any crap from doo-doo #2, Trixie Watkowski, the other ass-kiss Disney robot who has more baggage than the United terminal at SFO.
*KGO-TV: the birth of Happy Talk and manufactured "petitions."
*Dear Ron Blowens Lowenstein: Paul Harvey would kick your ass were he alive today.
*KNBR and dead-air Duane Kuiper: Kuip had a good wrap this morning with Smurph and Smack, the head of the Irish mafia and the dude with the fake New Jersey accent: Kuip's flip-phone from the mid-1990's sounded less terrible on the air. I hear Kuiper is so 1980's engrossed he wears a "Members-Only" jacket while talking to Smuph.
*That San Diego fill-in schmuck on KGO, Chris Merrill, sounds like a low-flying mosquito that bites you in the ass at 3AM when you're half-asleep and feeling miserable. I can't stand the guy; even John Rothmann hates him and Rothmann loves just about everyone.
*The main reason for the "Ronn Owens Report:" when Ronn goes dating he has a show he can tell his latest brunette girlfriend about, or more precisely, his secret book of sloppy seconds.
*I'm a misogynist, sure, but it's not me that is showing off my tits and ass on Instagram.
*Yeah, Kristen Sze is away from KGO, maybe taking some vacation time or possibly seizing the chance to write up a petition about David Louie.
*There's nothing new to report about Veronica De La Cruz; she's still absent and using a health excuse which may or may not be cool. I would bet that she (VDLC) isn't long for KPIX but that's just me.
*By he way, yeah, VDLC always likes to be on top.
*KCBS 46 minutes of commercials this morning from 7- 8 AM but less Stan Blunder the better.
*I'll say it again: Holly Quan, what a complete lightweight and marshmallow. She's there because, well, you know why.
*KCBS, the N.O.W. of radio stations because you just can't have enough women.
*Another Melba Toast on display: Megan Goldsby, about as interesting as week-old 7-11 White bread.
*KTVU's Pam Cook: every man's first wife.
*KGO's Ama Daetz: "I know I'm not Halle Berry, but I can pretend to be!"
*Lisa Argen: If she gets any higher heels she could try out for the Warriors. (And they may need her)

*Free politics take from moi: The debate tonight won't move any opinion. Unless Biden declares war on Canada, he'll get the ABT (Anyone but Trump) base while Mister $750 can do anything he still has his base. Tonight is really more, will Chris Wallace make headlines? No.
*John Lund, how much for the facelift? I didn't think Earl Scheib was in the plastic surgery business.
*Greg Papa's gargle voice is more nauseating than an NFL's receiver's brown shower habits.
*Mark Willard on KNBR; I didn't know his dating club included all the female guests on his show. Keep at it.
*Paulie Mac: the Grateful Dead never heard of him.
*Jerimiah Crowe: about as intriguing as a Market Street heroin addict.
*Doug Harvill: the only guy I know who has Ben Fong Torres wet dreams.
*Larry Beil: backstabber, with authority!
*Yesterday was Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish New Year. In fact, most Jews, even reform Jews, don't work on Yom Kippur. Except fake Jews like Ronnnnnn Owens and Mark Thompson.
> Thomas isn't exactly Mr. Sunshine...
ReplyDeleteI don't know what you're talking about. I found him one of the nicest, most decent people in the business. It's sad that so many of the good ones are leaving and the turds continue to float to the top. Eric will be missed. And oh, those tacos look good.
ReplyDeleteSan Diego fill in schmuck? You mean Chip Franklin?
Poor John hates the non liberal at the Titanic of liberalism known as KGO.
Papa's play-by-play is an extremely frustrating listen. He does not give you the yard line, ever! Listening while driving...had no idea whether a play was a 10 yard run or a 2 yard run...nor where on the field the play started from. Fine if you're watching simultaneously on TV, but not if you're driving. Greg, you can do better. Remember the fundamentals of good play-by-play.
ReplyDeleteDoes Veronica have cosmetic procedures during these hiatuses?
ReplyDeleteRonnnn's Report is better than his program used to be for one reason: It's relatively brief. As for Mr. Shouty, the APPALLING Chris Merrill, get him off! Last Friday and yesterday he was filling in yet again for Chip Franklin, and just when I thought it was safe to tune in to KGO today I find that he's filling in for Pat Thurston. Interesting that John R., a man of good taste, can't stand him.
ReplyDeleteCan't stand to hear opposing viewpoints from Chris? Go outside your bubble more, it's healthy.
DeleteWhy no mention of Ronn's facelifts and hair plugs? Only pick on Lund?
ReplyDeleteThe only thing more exciting for john rothmann then a debate/election (and he manages to plug himself and pat Thurston four or five times a night for Nov 3) is grocery shopping for his wife every day and finding the last can of stringbeans at cal mart
ReplyDeleteHave you ever heard Desperado by the eagles?
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong with a lady being on top unless its Jan Wahl?
ReplyDeleteGlad you cleared up what happened with Eric Thomas. Always found him to by a good standup guy. Sorry he's not around anymore.
ReplyDeleteI don't get what your beef is with Holly Quan. To my ears she always sounds very professional. And I wouldn't mind if she takes Susan's place on the morning broadcast. If there's one person on KCBS I could do without it's the one who calls himself "The Rat." He can leave anytime as far as I am concerned.
I much prefer Ama Daetz with the straight hair she had before.
