Hey, this week we talk about things like the Streetcar groundbreaking, the Bengals’ players’ inability to do law-abiding things for stretches longer than 18 months, beer, and other things. Also: filthy, filthy, filthy. Like you couldn’t guess that. Music is “Persephone” by Pop Empire. Podcast: Play in new window | Download
In case you haven’t heard, 700 WLW just fired morning host Doc Thompson. While he was on his honeymoon. The new guy? Eddie Fingers. The SAME Eddie Fingers who got fired from the same WLW in 2010. He’ll go back to co-hosting afternoons with the god awful Tracy Jones, while the equally terrible Scott Sloan moves to mornings. Firing Thompson while he was on his honeymoon is an asshole move–that much has already been covered. But what about Fingers tucking his dick between his legs to go back to WLW? Fingers says he didn’t hold any ill will toward WLW’s staff, just the higher-ups at Clear Channel. Okay, but WLW is still a Clear Channel station. It’s the same terrible company. Christ, they just proved it by making room for you by firing a guy on his honeymoon. Fingers has been jobless for about a year and a half. In that time he used John Kieswetter at the Enquirer to basically beg the world to hire him. A man’s gotta work. I get that. But Fingers is almost certainly now working for much, much less than he made when he got canned. So much for pride and principal. Eddie Fingers: you are a spineless taint.

Hey, it’s the 25th episode of the CinAwesome Podcast! Congratulations to us! This is something of a serious podcast. We talk about our respective holidays and how the went, the fall of local media and the recent history of the Yellow Pages. Yeah. Seriously. IT’S THE SERIOUS PODCAST! Jason also reveals his weight loss secrets after having dropped 15 pounds over a few weeks. And then, once the show begins to wrap up, we bring the funny. Music is You, You’re Awesome. Podcast: Play in new window | Download Is anyone truly, honestly surprised that after 80 years, a Crosstown Shootout finally ended with punches thrown? Apparently so. Despite all the jawing that happens between Xavier and UC every year. And not just by the players, like the moron who went on the radio claiming Xavier superstar Tu Holloway isn’t good enough to start for the Bearcats. The students, too, who delight in trash talking their rivals. “Fuck UC”, the thousands chanted at the Cintas Center Saturday after the brawl. And now we’re all expressing our embarrassment and apologies. But isn’t this what you wanted? Isn’t this what you encouraged by giving players from tough backgrounds encouragement to talk shit and ratchet up the rivalry? Makes for great sound bites and great headlines! Aren’t you craving this kind of confrontation when you don a t-shirt or make a sign that outright trashes the other team? Those are our best sellers! We are temporarily a side show for ESPN and YouTube. Let’s be proud of this mess we made because the way I see it, everything has gone exactly to plan. |
