Joe, Beth Ann and Robb were all infinitely funnier on D&M because Don knew how to use them effectively. It doesn't matter if Joe, Beth Ann or Robb is on the air with Mike, they will suck because Mike let's them do what they want to do...not what they are good at.
As for petitioning to get Beth Ann off, why bother? The guests suck because Mike doesn't demand good guests. ANYBODY in that position would do the same exact crappy job she has. Want to interview a guy who wrote a book about collecting Fossil watches and is ranked 284,326 on Amazon? Sign him up! Mike will try - and fail - to make it compelling radio by doing a SERIOUS interview!
"What makes Fossil watches so good?"
"You know, I used to think Fossil watches had been around a long time. But I later learned that they are about as old as Swatch watches. (89 caveats later) Why is that?"
