Fairfax Underground
Welcome to Fairfax Underground, a project site designed to improve communication among residents of Fairfax County, VA. Feel free to post anything Northern Virginia residents would find interesting.
What a tragedy WMAL has become. I really don't want it to reformat because even though it's rancid butter, it's on our side of the bread. But it seems like it's inevitable. Their morning show is surprisingly worse than ever. This duo right now comes across as some boring friends your parents met at church and you are listening to them noodle over very basic and shallow political sparring points over and over and over...and then they go to the phones and you hear the same nonsense over and over and over.
And, Larry OConnor. FFS. Anymore, it's like listening to the Iowa harvest report on AM radio.
Why can't WMAL get an actually entertaining morning show established.Its a huge radio market with enormous potential. Put a Gavin McInnes and/or a Greg Gutfeld on there and do a non pathetic and conservative version of the Junkies.
Its the damn baby boomers running WMAL. The tail end of this awful generation is running out the home stretch in leadership roles. Never before has one generation been so ill-prepared to adapt to change and this is proven everywhere, every day.
Awww. It's not like it's always been a shitty terrestrial radio station that only bumped up to FM a few years ago by always hawking garage door repairs and buying gold.
Attachments:
Vince is just as bad. Milktoast, at best. It's like listening to school children that are losers, yet they think that they are cool. Mary has some serious tell tail signs when she's fudging it. It's really clear that all WMAL wants to do is save some money! Penny smart ~ pound foolish...
On a positive note, I channel surf more than ever now! It's changed my morning commute and it's actually more positive.
Listen up you whippersnappers. Did you ever consider there are a lot of us old folks still out there. It’s a tried and true formula but it has made WMAL one of the most successful radio stations in the area for over 50 years. I think they know what they are doing.
That being said - yeah, they are cheap. And I agree this latest version of morning talk are lightweights. Boring lightweights. The worst since I have been listening.

Next generation Bingo caller.
Same tired phrases every ... single ... day.
I actually play a game during a commercials on other stations by going to WMAL.
How many will he regurgitate before hitting "Need Garage Door repair?".
- "Nanny Pelosi"
- "Bolt-neck"
- "Lunch bucket Joe"
- "My best girl"
- "Lame-stream media"
- "The lying liberal media, But I repeat myself"
- "MSDNC"
- Replace the word Democrat with "Communist" "Bolshevik"
- "You know I worked at CNN ..."
- "Hillary RODHAM Clinton"
- "Making quotations with my fingers"
Then add in a snarky, self-appreciative combo of snickering chuckle.
That's not wit, bravado, or humor.
That is lazy.
No analysis or critical thinking skills.
He's the Waffle House cook of right wing media. Churning out the same crap over and over as fast as possible.

Chris Plante is awesome. That is why his show has gone NATIONAL.

sometimes i'd like to bash cris plante for being smug and for being born in s.a. and helping democrats by making the opposite case
but if you listen to him, despite a small chip on the shoulder which is his style: he's not a democrat in hiding his news makes dems look bad
mark levine - his stance stands before everyone un-arguably - the most stanch republican voice wmal has over the long term
rush limbaugh, broadcasting FL, they should drop because his thinking is very neurally twisted and often makes a point tacitly for democrats (by logic) while saying the opposite. he's a hypnotist if you listen to him you'll have ill thinking, twisted neural formation.

I like plante but you fucking nailed it. He says each one as if it's his first time coming up with it and I just imagine him looking around the studio for praise from his production staff
