I've got to disagree with you with the whole Sacramento thing Sammy... since I'm here on business this weekend as I type this. lol. I'm here alot and I too live in SoCal, but Sacto ain't all bad. It's more laid back and relaxed than L.A. and the people don't seem so self-absorbed up here. They'll actually hold a conversation with you instead giving an attitude. Sacto isn't choked with smog, traffic and wall-to-wall gangstas like down south, and yes, there's actually things to do up here... believe it or not, it just takes some looking around and exploring.

I have to agree with Don that it would be a good place to live, that's if you want to get away from all the phony L.A. bullshit. I think part of Sacto's problem is that it gets lumped in with valley shitholes like Fresno, Bakersfield, Stockton and Modesto.

Sacto has it's bad parts.... but L.A.'s bad parts are 20 times worse.

I will give you that. LA sucks, so does Sacramento. I live most of the year in Eureka, CA ,way north, and I believe it is the best part of California. I'm not touting LA as anything but what it is. Your right, the people suck, traffic sucks, and its not that accommodating to live there. The one thing Sacramento does have is a relative closeness to San Fran, which is the only true city in California. I also agree that the other cities you listed are way worse than Sac, Most people in the state call that area the armpit of California. But I still would never choose to live there. Although the ARCO arena is not a bad venue for sports or music.

Watch the Mentalist on CBS if you want to see only the nice parts of Crackamento. Looks like heaven on that mug.

And i really never go to LA anyways unless its to Chavez Ravine, Staples Center, or to Phillipes( home of the first french dip sandwich). I mostly roll the South Bay, which has a better vibe that W Hollywood, the Valley, or the fucking worthless OC. LA is not a city but a spread out bunch of small cities with no real downtown. There is a downtown, but not like the east coast.

I have to agree with you Sammy about San Francisco being the only true city. It tops my list as best city in the state, if not the country. It's impossible to take a bad picture there. lol.

Anyway, to get back on topc... Mike O'Meara is still a loser.

Agreed. Did it seem that Donnie was dug in pretty deep up there? Is he actually living in Sacramento? I remember him saying that he was going to use ICDM? lines from where ever he was going to end up. I know he has a TV lead in on some local news. I imagine Sacramento is a good market as the people there are loyal and usually dont want anything to do with San Fran or LA media.

About to throw on This week in O'mearica. I am a little scared.

Don moved out here full time in October, I believe. He did his show with ISDN lines from Maryland, then moved out here and has really expolded since then. He is killing it on both radio & tv here. Funny too see him in a CBS13 promo about better stories during the Tsunami coverage. Exactly what Don used to bust balls about!

Fuck mike...his must sit home at night with a drink in hand staring at the floor wondering where the magic went..

I think Mike "expolded" too, whatever that means. Also, it would be funny "too" see Don in a TV/radio promo.

I'm not even going to bother with a Photoshop on this one, just read the copy...

Mike's a proud pet owner, and you should at least be thankful for all he's done to make this event possible. It's sort of a dream-come-true for Mike, to help all these animals and give support to their loving owners. It's something he truly believes in with all his heart. If it's not the type of event you're interested in, fine, but for the thousands who will be there, they offer a big salute to Mike for all he's done.

It's not a charitable event, dumbass! Why do you think Mike is going to be hanging out at Hadeed Carpets' tent? Because he's being paid an appearance fee!

Hey, dumbshit. This is what the organizers are charging rescue shelters to exhibit there...

Our shows are the perfect venue for 501c3 Rescue and Adoption organizations to do three very important things:

1. Educate the public about pet ownership responsibility.
2. Meet perspective foster and adoption prospects.
3. Raise funds for your respective organization.

Exhibit Space
Space Size 10' x 10'
Investment $325
Misc.
· One organization per space - no sharing
· Only logo'd items can be sold
· Includes listing in show program guide
· Includes web listing and link
· Does not include furniture (tables, chairs), electrical, etc.

If Mike is promoting this as some sort of charity thing, he's full of shit.

They're probably paying him with new carpet to replace the one his neglected dog has ruined.

Mike threw a hissy fit on The Edge show last week, screaming about how he'd never been trained to use the dump button.

Well, gee, Mike, you've only been in broadcasting for 100 years, how can anyone expect you to know how to use basic equipment?

It reminded me of when Mike started his show on JFK, and didn't know how to take listeners call without hanging up on them.

Snuh? If you hear a curse word, hit the big red button...


If you use the old D&M lineup, Kirk is Don, who answers the phone and runs the board...

Would Mike or Shamrock be Mike? I mean, could someone who listens let me know?

Thanks, Tom, we get it...

It's the mean-spirited-ness that really shines through for me. Mike just starts ranting and yelling at whomever is in closest proximity/nearest to him at the time, whenever he gets in a pissy mood, which is damn often.
At least Don, while an unrepentant asshat, took advantage of his pissy personality to be funny.
Listening to Mike = mean-spirited, childish, petty, vengeful asshat + no funny = CLICK!!

Don was capable of accepting blame for a fuck up. When have you ever heard Mike do that? In Mike's world, it's always someone else's fault.

Yes, it's obvious I'm wrong. That's why Mike and crew say they are broke and why Mike blames Don and Chad for ruining his career...because the podcast is such a fucking success.

http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

I live in Sac and Don's show seems like old vaudeville radio. He still thinks he's shocking his guests by bringing up sex. Oh my. Luckily for him, most of the people here in Sac still eat him up. I don't really get why.

I used to listen to the Don and Mike show every day, but now I catch a few minutes of Don here and there and don't feel like I'm missing a thing.

As for Mike, don't ask. I gave up on him two weeks after his new show launched back at JFK. He is amazingly disappointing and arrogant.

So sad for these two guys. But I'm thinking my old memories were probably better than the old show actually was

Well, Mike did say he felt like things were turning around!

Maybe he can get the show back to 21st place by the time they are canceled.

god damn washingtonlocian rants ;)

So, I'm not sure how this works, but I assume ad time cost is based on rantings.

For example (I'm making this up entirely)
Rated 1 show - $10k/minute
Rated 2 to 5 - $8k/minute
...

Is that basically how it works?

So, what would a 21st place show charge vs a 25th place show?

How much is Mike getting paid?

If we had those numbers we should be able to calculate the point in time at which Mike is costing the Edge more money to be on the air than he can generate in ad revenue.

Radio stations wish they could charge $10K a minute. More like $400 or $500 for a 30 second spot for a top-rated station. Also, keep in mind that a lot of ad buys are done through package deals, so the actual rate may be even lower than that.

In the case of 21st place versus 25th place, it shouldn't impact the rate too much (probably in the $100 to $150 range). It's mostly about unloading the inventory. At some point, they start giving spots away to their more loyal advertisers so that they don't need to reduce the general ad rate any further.

As for Mike costing the station money, it's really about opportunity cost. Odds are The Edge is pulling in something near $1 million in revenue even with shitty ratings. And I doubt Mike is making much. However, if the show didn't suck and the ratings were in the high teens, the station could be pulling in $5 million or more.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

Ok, so if there are 20min of ads an hour and $100/minute and Mike is on the air for 4 hours and 5 days a week...
$40k/week in ad revenue

$160k/month -> $1.92M/year

I have no idea what Mike makes, let's say $100k and Kirk $80k and the other staff is $75k -> $255k/year

Mike's show is making 7.53x than it costs

Again, I'm making these numbers up and they may or may not be grounded in reality.

Looking at it, I'd like to make 7.5x on a contract for the DoD

Like I said, how many of those spots are being given away? Besides, using your math The Edge should billing close to $5 mil a year...and it's certainly not.

But even if those numbers were accurate, CBS could plug in a machine for $50K a year and make just as much money in 25th place. So why pay people when you can "Jack" your morning show?

O'Meara is fucked at this point...

No matter what the station is billing, no matter how many avails go to waste in the AM drive slot at WVRX, Mike won't be there for long. I imagine that Mike will be asked to clean out his "office" soon and this scene will play out on Jenifer street:

It's funny that you don't realize it could be shtick.

I mean when they talk about how much Oscar makes, you don't think that is even slightly true (despite a lot of evidence pointing to it being the case). Yet when they claim they are broke as a laughing joke you think there is not a chance it's a joke.

Agreed!

ChadIsFat has the right idea here, and most of the rest of you are just plain jealous losers. I mean, after all, you're here constantly on this site bashing a guy who has never met most of you, let alone done anything wrong to any of you.

Mike and Oscar especially, but also Robb and Buzz to a lesser degree, are well-set financially. Mike has a number of well-paying investments, and a healthy stock portfolio. I mean, someone who is NOT doing well financially doesn't live in a neighborhood like Mike does or drive a car like Mike does.

Oscar is clearly well-off, as has been documented numerous times on this web site. He makes a ton of money off mangrates and is in the podcast biz for fun and to keep his name fresh for future broadcasting gigs.

Buzz has been in the business forever, and is set for life. If you don't think this is true, you're just wrong.

Robb, well, Robb's savings account is probably not in great shape right now, but his wife has a good job and she loves him and fully supports his broadcasting career. I feel sorry for all of you who have not seen them together personally. They love each other very much, and Cary loves being married to one of the region's funniest radio men!

hey guys,
never posted here before - been reading for the past few weeks - comic gold.

But here's some interesting insight into the behind-the-scenes:
- Joe Ardinger posted on Facebook:
"stay tuned for my Podcast that you can buy for only $100 a year! Oh Boy Howdie! Just kidding, there will be no pods..." [Saturday at 10:40pm]

then continued to rip on the MOMS crew.

Here are the responses (to save you the effort):

Christian Carlqvist - Cheaper than the damn O'Meara show.
Joe Ardinger - yeah but how else are ya gonna get Robb and Buzz...
Mark Merritt - Lol
Mark Merritt - Joe knows radio..........let's start a podcast tomorrow......contact me......im in the bumpass book!
Kurt Foster - Too bad. I really liked your radio show. I'd pay for it!!
Joe Ardinger - no one will ever pay for my radio show, because then it would be just another tawdry Podcast...those who can do radio do, those who can't...pod...
Joe Ardinger - I call it Podsterbating...

@Mike, I hope you are trying to be sarcastic (don't quit your day job because it wasn't a very funny attempt).

I actually do agree people go a little overboard with the personal attacks on here, but really - the Mike O'Meara Show is a complete sham. I was tricked into listening to it as an old Don & Mike fan. (I even bought Raw Episode 1). I've since come to the light. I can get into what I listen to now if I post again in the future.

Regretfully, I have attended the Pet Expo in Chantilly (last year, had a new dog, wife made me go, enough excuses haha). It is certainly not anything charitable and it's just awful. We didn't buy anything and had a brand new dog. People hocking (sp?) their awful merchandise and trying to suck everyone dry. Pets are fun, that event is not. Also, he is definitely appearing on Hadeed's dime, as he's not an official guest of super pet expo. I just got the email from the company that runs it (again, embarassed, but they send it out to everyone who went last year)... he's not on it. But the pig that paints from Oprah is.

That painting pig should start a podcast.

ok guys, back to obscurity and trolling this thread!

Mike furiously yelling at Buzz on the air about bringing up money and yelling that "we aren't free anymore" because he is bouncing checks is pretty good evidence it is not a joke. One, because I believe them and two, because if it were a joke it's not funny...even by their lame standards.

This raises another question about the Hadeed oriental carpet-cleaning business. Anyone else notice that he is paying for a media blitz on local radio and TV? I mean, to have jingles ("You stand on it, we stand behiiind it), Mike doing ad copy for them while mentioning his dog in them as if people know about his mutt, TV spots, etc. Seems more than a little excessive for an ORIENTAL RUG CLEANING company; a very specific service to begin with, where he is probably one of the only games in town.

What gives? Is any of it necessary at all?

They will also steam clean your wall-to-wall carpets on site, with equipment that's superior to that of the competition.

If by specific, you also mean expensive, then yes. And it's definitely unnecessary. However, "one quick call to Joe Hadeed, if you stand on it, we stand behind it (bah, bah!)" has been around a long time. I grew up in Vienna and remember those ads. Just because you started paying attention, doesn't mean it's new.

Don't forget that shitty Chimney Sweep jingle Robb played every fucking Friday...

They do when they've been riding a gravy train for 25 years, and refuse to acknowledge that the train has left the station without him.

Oscar is lucky enough to come from a great family that taught him the value of hard work.

He may have a decent savings account thanks to the fact that he and his wife have never had kids, but he's far from set for life.

And your evidence? Because we have evidence of past podcasts where he bitches to Mike about wanting money he's owed.

I'm sure she would if he actually had a broadcasting career, and wasn't just playing radio in his friend's living room.

When did Cary marry Chad Dukes?

Does that eliminate those of us who worked for CBS and had contact with O'Meara.

Grant Avenue in Manassass? Please! If O'Meara's mailing address was Foxhall Road in DC or Bethesda I might agree with you but O'Meara is where he needs to be socially and financially.

No disrespect to Manassass or the PWC.

Did you say fattest?

Seriously though, Chad is pretty funny unless he feels people aren't worshiping him enough and he falls into his MASSIVE insecurities.

I don't know why Mike is agreeing with me since I don't believe many of the things he said. I am sure the podcast is shitty but I also don't pretend to know exactly how much they make.

I know that WTL has been RADICALLY wrong with previous financial estimates regarding salaries so it's not like I trust his random made up numbers any more than anyone elses.

I'm obviously wrong about Mike's finances. That's why he is bouncing checks and getting calls on the air from bill collectors.

I didn't know you were sitting in his house while he got those calls or were processing the check that bounced.

I don't have to when he talks about this shit on the podcast, dipshit! And, no, it's not shtick, because it's not funny and there's no point to it otherwise.

Do you think that Mike could eat his own weight in spaghetti - in one sitting??

Interesting question, but the answer is no. Who has the time or the funds to prepare that much spaghetti?

Mike definitely has the time but not the funds. Although one could go the really cheap route and get the cheapest pasta and a bottle of ketchup.

Do you realize...

It would take a team of chefs working round-the-clock for a solid day to produce enough pasta to equal the weight of just one of Mike's thighs?



Let's not get started on the sauce...

YoungDCian: You are treading dangerously close to a lawsuit. You should hope that Mike is more charitable than I would be in this case.

Hahahaha! On what grounds? A hot coffee McDonald's lawsuit has more merit than whatever you're insinuating.

Hey, "Legal Attorney":

What EXACTLY would Mike O'Meara -- an unquestioned public figure -- sue FOR? People are alleging that he's not doing that great financially. Gee, why? Because he ran a bar into the ground, pumping God-only-knows how much cash into that particular rathole? Because he couldn't get financing to buy Sign of the Whale? Because he's make public reference to bouncing checks?

Please. Spare us your bullshit. Better yet, forward ALL of these to Mr. O'Meara or one of his buttboys. Oh, wait, you won't have to; they're always here.

Maybe, maybe not - but I'm sure O'Meara has Oskar clean his "Mangrates" regularly!!

Hee, Hee - "Mangrates" - get it?!?!?!?

You know, I've tried to give good advice here, by warning YoungDCian that he was opening himself up for a lawsuit, but you all would apparently rather laugh at me and mock me instead. So whatever. When you get sued, don't cry to me, haters.

And people talk about Oscar being really wealthy too, dipshit, and yet you think that can't possibly be true.

Seriously, may you get cunt cancer and have it spread like wildfire through your body. I've said it before. I don't hate MOM but he is worthless and a good example of how NOT to succeed for everyone.Including you if you were not so stupid. But I sure as hell hate idiots like you. Seriously!

I don't know if it's true or not. I'm merely pointing out that plenty of idiots with no money are able to lease expensive cars. Apparently you don't understand that fact, but I see it all of the time.

No, they really aren't.

In fact you can't rent or lease anything, let alone expensive cars, without any money. So no, you have never seen that done, especially not this far into a lease.

Let's inventory the "Oskar Empire":

1. pimped-up ride
2. Kara
3. trunk full of "Mangrates" in pimped-up ride
4. 2 podcasts
5. reportedly hangs with 'high rollers' making $250K a year in Georgetown (?)

Well, ain't the young man livin' life in a mucho grande fashion!

It's not surprising the 'success criteria' listed above were posted on this board by O'Meara butt boys - it's an insight into what they consider 'success'.

I'll post the positive side of "Rob(b)'s Realm" as soon as I can think of something positive, like "functioning jumper cables".

I knew a deadbeat who was driving around in an $80K Mercedes because he got an idiot friend to co-sign on the lease with him. There are ways to make these things happen.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

It's possible that Mike, Oscar, robb and Buzz are not all as broke as you think. Or do you believe everything Don says on the radio, too? It's entertainment, you know. People who are on the radio need to be entertaining, and they might sometimes bend the truth to be more entertaining.

Are you truly that stupid that you don't get what we're doing here, or are you just trying to be obtuse?

There's joking about being poor and then there's having near-nervous breakdowns on air because you are poor. What I've heard on the failcast has been closer to the latter.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

Okay. Let me put it this way. When was the last time you heard Howard Stern or Don Geronimo bitch about being poor?

Adam Carolla talks about the low revenue nature of the podcast and is very matter of fact about it (and his podcast is usually ranked 1 or 2). Carolla is constantly trying to land a TV series or a movie role or a gig on a game show.

The truth is podcasting pays shit. The reason is because your costs increase as the podcast gains an audience. Costs are pretty much fixed for broadcasting.

Let us not forget "Lurchie" on the Junkies who tooled around in "his boy" Osama's Bentley or Lambo like he was DC royalty rather than the Seabrook/Ashburn D-list celebrity he is in real life.

I'd say that Rob(b) is fatter than Chad at this point...unless you look at his photoshopped Facebook photos. I'll give you the fact that Chad is extremely insecure both professionally and personally. Just listen to the BO&D podcast. He's always whining about not having any friends at WJFK, and how people don't want to hang out with him.

Still, unlike Rob(b), Chad has a steady job.

Jesus Christ, who really gives a fuck how they are doing financially. Who cares if Oscar lives beyond his means, he is 33 years old and not married. Buzz seems comfortable and has no kids, he is fine. As for Robb, why do you care if he makes $10 - 15 an hour doing a podcast or the same running a board at some shitty local station. Oooh Cary works as a floor manager at Target. Fuck you, plenty of families in the U.S. survive off less. They get health insurance and work at the wage of most Americans. He has no skills beyond Radio and this is his wage bracket. What do you want him and Cary to do? Mike is kind of a disaster, that I can not argue. Congratulations to all of you for never being late on a bill and for never having to refinance, you bastards are brilliant when it comes to money and hindsight. It is a piece of shit free podcast among many, who really cares?
