It's becoming increasingly hard to wish Mike well.

237...Semper Fat...

Transparent, your name is not O'Meara. When did this show ever be transparent about anything?

You know, that's the really sad thing. Time was when I couldn't stand to miss a show, and *never* FF'd through a part I wasn't enjoying. I always told myself "Yeah, this blows, but the gem is up ahead". And it usually was. But I've wasted so much of my quality listening time in the last year waiting for "the gem" that now if they start on a topic I have no interest in my immediate response is "I'm outta here!!"

I really am disappointed with how far the show has fallen. Now I'm just waiting for the train wreck that we all know is inevitable.

BTW, peekza...

Noodling through all the Marc history. He was lax on getting merch to the fans and for weeks he overlooked a big envelope of t-shirt cash from the Reno show.
As business manager he prob was let go cuz he never reconciled the books. In Mike's eyes this would have been thieving from the show, but was more like sloppy or incompetent.

I'm sure Chronic could not help himself. He sounded to me like a consummate bullshit artist. Plus, he's a doper. What did they expect?

I saved some shows I thought good, I have about 20 of them.
Thinking about it I haven't saved one for many months, maybe a year.

Remembering, the things that made me save a show were Mike telling a story well and funny, and Oscar taking shots at RObb and Robb getting all mad but unable to shoot back 'cause he's a dorf.

Some of the game stuff where Robb would try to make it work and Mike would get mad was always good for a hoot.

Let's go back to that, it works.

Put forth the effort to do some special things on free shows.

More Robb is not the answer...

Sounds like Jew talk to me.

Oscar will be the next to leave this stinking.. er sinking ship. Robb is about as funny as the cancer his kid got, and Mike is an obese drunk. I'd rather listen to my neighbors fight over who has the bigger rims.

the show last week about asking mike to just listen to a few minutes of the show made NO sense to me. he made such a big deal about how his "ear" is better than robb's . . . um, so listen to the show then! how the hell else can you tell the sound quality unless you LISTEN????

What episode should I listen to if I want to know what happened to Marc?

Fridays show

I don't care anything about the show being "the best sounding podcast out there", because the content is not good anymore. I listen to a few podcasts, and I hear nothing about TMOS which makes me blown away by the sound quality. Who cares about the microphones? If it is so great why is Mike always asking for more gain, or less this or more that? If the sound is so good why does Mike complain about Robb being a poor board op?

I just lost the game.

Is it really the best sounding show when you try to do phone interviews with an iPhone five inches from a microphone?

Morey Amsterdam had a good mike.

OK. I'm listening to the show.

Transparent? Now that's funny! Listeners buy this BS?

"Sounds great, no content", new TMOS t-shirt.

The sound and the fury!

There are lots of podcasts out there that sound awful but you know what? I'll listen through the bad sound quality to enjoy the good content I find - sort of like the really old days of tuning through static on the table radio to hear a distant radio station.

The reverse has never applied for me - whether it's an FM radio station, a podcast or other media; phenomenal sound quality never gets me to consume shitty content - like TMOS.

Making it all about me...

Literally, Hand2God?

Listener since day one! I could not miss a second for at least the first year. I was religeous about never missing a single minute, let alone a full segment. Never an episode. Then came a time (about two years in) when I started listening on fast speed (2X on the Podcast app). I still didn't want to miss a thing, but it became just so painful to listen to. Stuff like birthdays, the interruptions to Oscar and Buzz's stories, Mike's idiotic bloviating... 2X was the only way I could get through without feeling like I was going to miss something. Then I started skipping and fast forwarding. At first it was just the opening vignettes (always just the worst thing in the world [that April fools one for example was an embarrassing disgrace!]). At some point I really just realized I hate Mike and his entitlement and refusal to take responsibility (e.g., blame the alcohol and bartender, never himself for drinking it; never listens to his own products for quality control [he had absolutely no clue what "pee ooo wee" meant?! - from a show on his own network???!!!]). I could go on but it just bums me out.

Bottom line, I have gone from never missing a second of a single episode to posting here (!) and basically never listen anymore. The show sucks. It took me a long time to admit it.

Did Marc even get a farewell, like Buzz did a year ago?

I know Buzz just got the big boot (please super sleuths, stop making LFF upset by looking into it, he has been completely transparent with all of you jerks) without as much as a goodbye, but why not Marc if on such good terms?

I have never heard an adult over the age of 25 reference their undergraduate degree or college experience as Mike O'Meara. Seriously dude, you got a bachelor's degree. Congratulations. Can we move on?

PS - Your grammar is, as you would say, "horrible." Might want to go back for some remedial courses.

Mike reading the news is downright unlistenable. Buzz is gone. Just don't do the news. Just talk longer in the main segment. Another typical example of Mike's unwillingness or inability to realize and embrace change (the same way beautiful continues to format his podcast as a radioshow - sorry Mike, you are not doing a radio show, wake up and accept it). Anyway, if your news guy is gone and you are incapable at doing news (reading prep service with a terrible sing-song cadence doesn't cut it!) then just eliminate the news segment. I guess if you cared or thought critically about your product you would realize this, but that would take some level of critical introspection and effort. And we all know how that goes in Mike's world.

I bet it is tied to Marc managing the business end of things and Mike having no idea what was going on. If he just kicked Marc out, then Mike would have no way of knowing what was going on with the money. I bet Marc also knows about all the money Mike was stealing and doesn't want him to go public with it, so he is a consultant.

listening to thursday's show, and mike was asking oscar a question. before oscar got a chance to respond, robb had to chime-in for about 5 minutes. sure would be nice if he could shut the hell up. whatcha think on percentage of time we here them -- i'd say:

mike = 55
robb = 40
oscar = 5

sound about right??

i really like oscar, but as was said, that new "laugh" he's got is grating. not quite up to the robb level, but he's getting there.

What kind of lazy person refuses to listen to his own product to ensure it sounds acceptable?

Meanwhile of course he criticizes Robb's ability as an audio engineer. And then of course Robb caves and agrees that he has no audio engineering ability.

The whole show is just garbage. What else does Mike have going on in his life that he can't listen to his own show for a few minutes? Certainly not putting together a crib or helping his wife prepare for the baby.

LFF finished helping Carla prep for the baby when his eyes rolled back in his head, he snorted like a horse with his head in a bag of oats, and he squirted his feeble semen inside her. Glistening with sweat after 45 seconds of pumping away, he rolled his shamu-like carcass off her, as she opened her eyes, and sighed, for the hundredth time, an unsatisfied sign.

I find it hilarious that Oscar's busting Mike's chops more and more each ep. "you did nothing on the ride and felt you deserved a treat?" You can see Mike getting progressively more pissed with every jab Oscar takes. Good on ya O!!!!

Feeling he had staisfied his wife, Mike then began to eat and drink uncontrollably.

Finished your thought for you.

Mike sounds like a bit of a pussy when he talks about jail. I've been to jail and wasn't as scared as Mike. This lends credence to the theory that the ridealong was in DC, because a lot of niggers would scare Mike. He should have asked G. Gordon Liddy if he could borrow his fighting ring. So now Mike is jock-sniffing prison guards. Greaseman on the other hand, was actually an auxiliary officer in Florida and a Sheriff's Deputy in NoVa. Until that unfortunate remark.

Yeah, and no one's heard the "hours of boredom...minutes of terror" remark before. Good pretending or total stupidity?

And yes the reading of the news is poorly done by Mike.

Mike has never heard of Turkmenistan. Or a newspaper.

I just sent this to Oscar:

Not sure if this addy still goes to Oscar, but anyway...

Long time listener, now ex-listener, but I still read www.fairfaxunderground.com from time to time. I saw something there about Buzz leaving and Marc leaving (I hadn't listened to MOM in over a year {I couldn't stand Rob(b) anymore and Mike's entitlement is more than I can deal with}), which got me to listen to 6-28-2013 MOM show.

I heard you guys complain about the sleuths. I think you all miss the point.

Almost never in the history of civilization has a unilateral departure message been on mutually favorable terms.

In other words, if one day somebody is on mic and the next day they aren't. There is a reason for that and often it is because 1 party didn't want the other around. You all have a couple of options:
1) Say something like, "both parties decided to move in different directions", which is clearly untrue, if it was true you'd make a joint statement and have a going away show, so that didn't happen and hence isn't the case

2) Tell your side of the story, which curtails the curiosity The main reason why this doesn't happen is because there is something one side doesn't want to get out. This is what births sleuthing.

Let me sum up FFXU's opinion on what happened:
Buzz quit because he was tired of putting up with Mike's shit, which may include: Mike being a jerk to him, Mike minimizing him, Mike not splitting the $ fairly, and Mike being overly drunk.

Why do we believe this? If Buzz was happy with how the MOM show was treating him and he was making $ from it, he wouldn't need to leave to do his show.

Marc was fired. Marc sucked at his job. He was brought on to land a "whale" client and he was unable to do that. Marc knows the details on the $ of the show and Mike doesn't want to have to answer to that, so he isn't getting on his podcast and saying Marc sucked at landing big deals.

Assuming any of that is true, the correct way to handle it is:
Mike: "Hey, I've been a jerk to Buzz and he left over my treatment of him." Now either 2 things happen:
1: "I'm going to work on that issue and see if I can not do this in the future"
2: "Screw him, if he can't handle me and my muse, then he can eat a bag of dicks"

Mike: "Hey, Marc wasn't able to land the deals I wanted him to and gave him years to do. So, I fired him."

That would have shutdown a bunch of the sleuthing.

Oh and please for the love of god, can the BOAD show please, please stop talking about Chad's stupid lame ass friends?

It isn't funny, because almost every story that involves them could be solved at any point by them realizing that the situation would get better if they acted like an adult.

I believe Chad does it because it strokes his ego and provides easy content. Both maybe true, but it is also the why I believe the live shows went down. Why would I want to hang out with a bunch of Chad's friends, when I hear about them weekly and I know a priori what I'll get by hanging out with them.

Any chance the show can have more from you and Drab?

great point but Oscar will NEVER stand up to Chad. No clue why he won't, but he won't. There are a number of times Oscar steers the show toward Chad's friends. Chad will say "no one wants to hear about them" Oscar will say "No no no they do...how was your weekend Chad" Oscar has mailed it in on BOAD. He's a bright guy he knows this is as far as Boad is going yet he does nothing to change it. Only thing that's changed is his new Revenge of the Nerds laugh

If any of you jerks think Mike is doing show prep by pulling news stories, or that Robb is actually taping and watching all those shows and youtube videos to get his precious audio vault, you would be mistaken. They both use show prep services, the same ones they used to rail against when on D&M. Phonies.

For a brief time, listened to DGS in the morning before listening to LFF in the afternoon. DGS had exactly the same sound bites and vids that Robb shared in his precious overdone, unoriginal "vault" (the difference being that DGS at least told listeners he got them from the DJ show prep service). I guess Robb still has the password to the show prep service Don gave Robb at JFK.

Literally *not* unhinging my jaw

Mike is so out of touch that he still uses the word "coed," which pretty much everyone except pornographers stopped using 30 years ago. You'd think his wife or daughters would point out he sounds like a creep when he says it.

Also, he is lazy, fat, and a fuck. Today he was winded after leaving the room to fetch a pair of shoes. How one winds oneself while saddled wigh an injury "on" their Achilles that requires them to wear slip-on Birkenstocks is beyond me.

Mike, an injury "on" your Achilles is called a scratch on your heel.

PREACH ON BROTHER!!

Oscar & Rob(b) (more Oscar than Robb, of course) busting on Mike for his Skechers (sp?) was actually somewhat amusing, and qualified as VERY amusing when compared to a lot of the other crap on the show. God help me, I actually broke into a smile during that segment.



Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 07/01/2013 04:21PM by Yo Soy ExOMearicano.

Does anyone think Robb pulls Oscar aside at the end of the show to scold him on the increased Mike ribbing " Now Oscar Massah no like being mades a fool of, you bettah stop it... Massah Mike not one to be foolins wit"

I agree Mike is terrible at the news but he will continue to do it for one simple reason. He has to prove that Buzz is not missed and a seasoned performer such as himself is perfectly capable of doing the news. Of course he is wrong but he will never acknowledge it and his peers will never tell him. His ego is off the chart and he has zero insight. I'm afraid the O'Meara news is here to stay.....

I'd like to see Robbbbbbbb spice up the bummers, I mean bumpers, with songs like the Taboo II theme song, "Playing With Fire" from Taboo IV, and "Dirty Mama" from Beyond Taboo. Surprisingly, they're all radio-friendly.

Mike read this page, was reminded of pornography, then began to eat and drink uncontrollably.

I think it's hilarious how the TMOS crew suck on the teate of Todd Moore, and his new app "Compulsive". Are they that desperate that they find it necessary to blow an incredibly lame computer programmer? Is that the best they can do?

I can't believe how many 5 star reviews "Compulsive" has been getting on the Google Play store (and probably also in iTunes, but I don't have access to it). Of course every one of them is from a fan of TMOS, who will kiss Mike's extra large ass, along with everyone associated with that show.

What no one mentions is that "Compulsive" is an extremely poorly done clone of a game that was originally released in 2001, "Bejeweled". Only TMSOFT'S version has boring unimaginitive "colored blocks" instead of jewels, a plain, static white background, only one mode of game play, and the most sadistic mind-numbing piano music bed that I've ever experienced in an Android app.

I think everyone in this forum should go on either the Google Play store on on iTunes app store and give it a "REAL" review. How it is a poorly done remake of a 12 year old game that has been copied over and over and over in every game platform imaginable. Maybe then the krewe will realize what a hyped up loser TOMO really is.

And really dumbing it down for the average TMOS fan in the process.

Maybe that is the brilliance behind it all. The average TMOS fan (Carla O'Meara? Cary Spewak?) is too stupid to understand "Bejeweled", so they "dumbed it down" so that the average TMOS fan could understand it.

Makes sense.

http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/119930/khtk-retools-don-geronimo-back-to-middays-doug-laz

ALL ACCESS has learned of major changes at CBS RADIO Sports KHTK-A (CBS SPORTS 1140)/SACRAMENTO, which is reverting to its old KHTK SPORTS 1140 branding as it makes lineup changes that include moving morning man DON GERONIMO back to middays, his slot for many years on the station both in syndication with the DON AND MIKE show and then with his return to radio in SACRAMENTO.
Not making the move with GERONIMO to the noon-3p slot are longtime station personality MARK "PHANTOM" LOWE, producer JOE ARDINGER, and "Intern" CRAIG HARLESS, who have left the station.
In addition, the station is starting a new morning show with sister Top 40/Rhythmic KSFM afternoon host KEITH "BOONDOCK" BROOKS and CARMICHAEL DAVE, the station veteran who left KHTK last year and most recently hosted an online show and was instrumental in helping keep the SACRAMENTO KINGS from moving to SEATTLE. The new show will air 5:30-9a, with CBS SPORTS RADIO's JIM ROME adding an hour to air live 9a-noon.
To fill BOONDOCK's slot at KSFM, DOUG LAZY is moving over from nights at Hot AC KZZO (100.5 NOW FM), and KZZO PD CHAD RUFER will take over voicing LAZY's night slot at NOW.

is there a link for it?

Is Buzz now selling his own Amazon link now?

Isn't the music for the game a loop from that song that's been done to death on tv and radio, "Closing Time" or something by ColdPlay or Nickelback?

Sorry to hear about the Geronimo reorganization, been wondering why his updates were stopped.

I have not released it into the wild yet. I'll be sure to link it here when I do!

It's obvious that Oscar has figured out the only way to get out of the Failcast with minimal guilt or bullying is for LFF to fire you. I think Oscar's new aggressiveness is aimed at getting LFF to "fire" him. Cunning and yet incredibly pitiful at the same time. Oscar has the backbone of a Jello Pudding Cup.

My main problem with the Fatcast is that it reminds me of grade school: A jabba bully surrounded by pussies and ass-kissers. I never did like that scene.

I'm so Freaking Happy Doni is going back to afternoons!!!....That's the magic spot for him...Just had the hardest time keeping up with his shows since he went to mornings...He never should of left it...let the madness begin!!! ;)

"That tape, taken from today's show, right when I was having a word with Buzz and Marc"

That was unnecessary.

I always try to say good things about people I've dealt with, so people I want to deal with don't think I would just dump on them too.

There is no way he gets on top of her...He would literally crush her....Hand to God...

Can't wait for Mike, Jr. to get here. That should make things interesting.

If there's anything worse than working with a drunken Mike O'Meara, it would have to be working with a drunken and sleep-deprived Mike O'Meara.

Let the tension increase. Yes!!!!!

Let the bitchfest begin!

Bad news about everyone that got let go from the show and it being moved to middays. I'll miss Joe Ardinger. Who is going to sing the phone-scan songs now?

Phantom will find a job somewhere. He has been in the business long enough to get something going.

Craig is a moron. Not hearing his useless comments will be great. He will always have that stupid tattoo on his ass to remember the time he wasted on the show. Well, the world needs ditch diggers, too.


Good news is that the slobbering retard that is Carmichael Dave wont be on the DGS. I listened to Don from day one of his new show on KHTK up until that saliva-spewing fucktard was brought onboard. It has been such a great year+ of listening to Don without such an annoyance and I'm so glad he will be on another show. Now, I can continue to listen to Don's show without having to hear him just say "Yes" and " You're right, Don" the whole goddamn show while the interns mop up his spit off of the mic and the floor.

If I fill out the requisite forms for Sherries Berries,1800-Flowers and Spencer and Devon, can I get cut too?

Wow! The show just spirals into a further free fall each week. It is amazing to me. The guys are aware of this page and obviously read it. The fat baby himself monitors his own fan pages. Creeeep-eeee! Did anyone see the post he put up about a week or ten days ago, I was going to post it here but it has been removed, a tight close up of him with a caption of something to the effect of "I am watching" but it was way creepier.
It seems as though they read this, and see how many die hard financially supportive fans are dropping them, and yet no improvement to the show. Many of the ex-fans being VIP's, so I guess fat baby doesn't realize that his x-mas "bonus" and first of the year salary will be heavily lacking if he doesn't do something and fast!
I like so many others never used to miss a second, now find myself skipping entire shows. I no longer feel like I have missed out on a thing.
Even the loyal are taking to FB using their real names to vent their disenchantment, no longer fearing or caring about being excommunicated by the great pontiff fat baby. Damn Dude, get a clue! I guess you just cannot stop that train now....it's too late,

The best thing Buzz and Marc could have done was leave. Oscar, move on, Chad is turning into a Mike...give him 10 or 15 years...give or take. BOAD has run it's course for the same reason. Little to no content. Just kissing Chad's ass and talking about his friends and if he is left out of ultimate soccer he pouts...nobody cares anymore....

It is just that there are so many more quality things out there to listen to...why waste my time with it anymore? It is sad. It is like breaking up.
What is even worse is that all we hear is how the fat baby cares so much to put out the best show..blah blah blah and when someone complains or even hints at a suggestion he loses his friggin' mind, yeah, that is caring! I just want to scream.

I too have been skipping shows of late for the first time since the podcast started, and am reaching the point where the show is becoming intolerable. I've been a faithful listener since the old D&M days, but the recent personnel upheaval has laid bare a lot of ugliness underneath the surface of the show, and that whooshing sound you hear is the entertainment value leaking out of the whole enterprise at an alarming rate.

The whole 'transparency' thing is such a blatant lie. Go back and listen to Buzz's last TMOS podcast, the one we were told that he quit after finishing. Mike takes several passive-aggressive swipes at Buzz during the show, hitting on all his pet criticisms of him, even bringing up the fact that he left the show once before. CLEARLY, Mike had some inkling of his departure and that's why he rode Buzz's ass the whole show. It was no surprise at all to him, he already knew. And the more Mike's dickitude shines forth, the more I admire the way Buzz apparently just declared himself DONE with all the BS and got the hell out of there. Marc's departure was a surprise to absolutely no one - he's been fading from the show ever since he split with his wife. So why not just be truly honest, and stop treating the listeners like toddlers? Nobody would be 'sleuthing' if it weren't so painfully obvious that we're being bullshitted. You want people to believe you, you need to be *convincing* in your kumbaya happy-talk. Instead, the tension and bitterness beneath are palpable.

It has become apparent in the past year that Mike's drinking is at an all-time high. EVERYTHING he does, every event or activity, one way or another, comes back to getting loaded. Does he have *anything* else in his life besides this? His life has gotten narrower and narrower in the past year or so and it's taken its toll on the show. And I actually think that was a factor in Buzz's departure - dealing with a short-tempered, bullying drunk got old.

(And the fact that his promised political show on the MORE network never materialized probably had something to do with it too. Given Mike's seething jealousy of the other shows on the network, it was unlikely that he ever intended to make good on his promise.)

In the end - regardless of how one feels about Buzz, Marc or even RJ, it's no fun to listen to the remaining guys take little potshots at them on the show as if we the listeners aren't picking up on it. It's childish, petty and undermines the already-unconvincing message of 'amicable split' they're trying to sell. Who wants to listen to a podcast that treats the listeners like kids caught in the crossfire of an ugly divorce? Remember when this show actually had some entertainment to offer besides hate-listening? Yeah, the memory is getting dimmer for me too.

Thanks for letting me vent. I'm sure Mike's inability to control the discussion here is eating away at his pickled soul. AND I LOVE IT.

LFF thought he could do a show on politics? Wouldn't it be helpful to KNOW something about politics? He'd be just as qualified to do a show on brain surgery, or differential calculus.

Remember super sleuths, sleuthing for what actually happened on Mike's SUPER cop ride along will result in a de-friending and a ban!

I plead with you sleuths, please sleuth away. You can post here and Mike won't know who you are to ban you! I really don't want to hear another show like that. He filled 3 segments with a ride along where nothing happened.

Sad when the highlight of LFF's ride along story is when Oscar zings him for his stupid new shoes and feeling like he deserves a treat for doing nothing all day.

Is that Strawberry shake part of the Weight Not diet Rob(b)? HE IS.... THE WEIGHT GAINER!

Meanwhile, Buzz lolls beside the pool with a spliff and a smile.

I can't get over the people who claim that Buzz wanted or needed the failcast. He doesn't need it financially; that's for damned sure. He can do voice-over work for cash any time he wants. So it's just about doing what he wants to do, when he wants to do it, at the tail end of his career -- why not run his own show, and not get interrupted 70 times a news segment by two fat morons?

IIRC, LFF was saying Buzz would have a political show on the MORE network band of brothers - part of the "we've patched it all up and Buzz is staying with the show" lie from last year.

Literally, your comment might still apply...

I guess MORE in "The MORE Network" stood for "Mike's Offensiveness Requires Exit"

.
Attachments:

Mike saw that picture, then began to eat and drink uncontrollably.

When it all started I thought MORE stood for Mike Oscar Robb Elston like a true lap-band of brothers. How naive! Shouldn't it be the Mike O'Meara Podcast Entertainment? The MOPE network is more fitting for Mr. O'Meara anyway.

what I never got was why they never actually did a podcast
to me the definition of a podcast is a free flowing conversation, sure it can have bits or a structured segment to introduce a weekly or even daily thing
but goddamn it isn't commercial/vignette/intro/commercial/20 minutes of talk/commercial/15 minutes of talk/commercial/10 minutes of news/commercial/10 minutes of prep-service audio
the whole idea of sticking it to the man and no longer having to listen to CBS executives has gained him what exactly?
an RV trip and a trip to florida in the three years he has been "on the air"
has he even attempted a porch sittin' or some sort of out of the box broadcast?
LFF never did a podcast, he hid behind the moniker of "internet radio" to cloak the fact that he cant get a goddamn job in real radio

I would say shit is going to fall apart after LFF jr. hits the floor but he just cannot afford that
with his wife on maternity leave and zero job prospects in NOVA there is no chance that LFF makes it through the winter
Although I suppose he can sell his shithole in florida to stave off the tax man

I'm guessing because it would be easy to give to a radio station at the drop of a hat if a decent one actually appeared and offered them the cash. (didn't they have affiliate in New England a while back that after a little while just stopped talking about?)

And second, its the only way Mike knows how to do it. You actually think he would go outside the box? Which also goes to what you said, he gets to sleep every night because he gets to pretend everyday he is actually doing a real radio show.

Yeah, whatever happened with that anyway? Talk about that affiliate just stopped cold (the way they should be handling the Buzz/Marc situation).

No, Mike and Slobb can both sleep at night because they drink themselves into a alcohol-fueled stupor

It was fairly early on and didn't last very long. I think they once mentioned the affiliate stopped paying them, or had broken the contract in some manner. They probably just realized the Failcast is not worth paying for.

Hey Mike, I don't think you should be saying "very unique".

"Unique" is an absolute. It doesn't mean "rare" or "unusual". You can't use a modifier with an absolute.

You wouldn't say "Robb's house is very one of a kind" would you? Well, sure you would but I'm talking about when you're sober.

I was going to let it slide but you kept repeating it over and over during the opening conversation on today's podcast.

No thanks necessary. Glad I could help.

They were on a college station in Vermont, which subsequently stopped paying... Guess those hip openings, you know, like Ghostbusters, Whatever happened to Baby Jane, Rosemary's Baby, the Blues Brothers, didn't have as much traction with people born in the last 30 years...Or maybe it was the lame impressions in that fucked-out vignette...Those children's parents probably didn't know who the fuck Jack Cassidy was...

It was the sports station in Burlington. This was covered many, many pages ago, but apparently nobody read the fine print as to all the events Mike would have to attend, etc, so they canceled the deal after a couple of weeks, maybe a month. It was never discussed on the air. I am sure Marc has all the sordid details.

AMEN!

I'm a fan of Oscar and a first time poster here, but the above information just bums me out. Todd said he spent six months programming his new App and now it looks like he's just a full of crap liar like Mike. That sucks.

I stumbed across this board, and feel like many other posters. MOM Use to be a decent show. Now its crappy commercials, lazy segments (birthdays is the worse), terrible news (Mike should not be doing it), and the fact that everything has to revolve around Mike. Mikes not happy, Mike wants his name on everything, yet Mike is unwilling to do any real extra circular work for the show. I think Mike is a decent performer, but is really not a great captain and leader. BTW how the hell is Oscar on the radio. He can not speak correctly, rarely is funny (except when busting chops), and seems very un-intellegent.

BTW they kept talking around the issue of Marc, did he end up leaving his wife, or cheating on her?

Melissa kicked Marc to the curb because he was playing make believe instead of actually pulling in a paycheck...

As transparent as Mike's Weight-loss updates?

Or as transparent as his excuses for not losing weight? Even when he was being paid to do so...

It's hard to be positive about the show as it careens off the rails, but today's OSCAR CENTRIC show was pretty good. Nice to hear from Oscar's Papa, Miguel Sandoval as Ernesto Escobedo in Tom Clancy's Clear and Present Danger. Might be a sign his health problems are behind him. Keepin' it tight.

Speaking of which, does Shannon travel with her bucket? Does she not get that you just take the food and throw it away later?

Sadly, the show was marred by Mike's jock-sniffing in the opening, and an inaudible bell on the "best sounding podcast".

Funny you say that. Did anyone else notice on todays show Mike talking about how he's on Points Program now? Oscar asked how many points was that McDonalds ice cream cone was. His response "I dunno.....Carly tells me what I'm allowed to eat" I do admit I love Oscar's questioning of everything LFF does. So where does that leave Weight Not?
