Fair enough, on all counts...
I'd like to say I'm not whining about it, but I can see how it's viewed that way so I won't really argue you on that. Consider me a whiner if you like, won't bother me.

I guess I wasn't really complaining that you were knocking on the show, I was just surprised to see how much hatred there was for an optional show. I dunno, just seemed strange so I commented. No offense intended really.

Since you've explained that this particular "gay porn" lacks the sexiness that you wished for, I would like you to expound on that a little...
Are you saying that you like O'Meara but he's not as funny as you want him to be?
I guess I'm just unsure as to what you hope for when you download it? If you know it will be bad, why download?

(don't get me wrong, not trying to hurt the amount of downloads...)

Honestly, no bad vibes intended, this just has me curious so I would like to know :)

That's a complaint? They want to know what is effective? How is that a bad business model?

I've worked for companies that failed because they didn't listen to customer feedback... so you've all rooted for them to fail and then complained when they did something pro-active to help business?

Really?

Sad.

Honestly, if they thought they were "above all that" and didn't do a survey, I might agree with all the golden-boy hype... but the fact that they actually want to understand their demographic should tell you that they are trying to establish a business. Nobody starts out on top of the world and they seem to be well aware of that.

Yea, POO-POO on anyone trying to be productive with business... sure... Mike should be working at the jiffy-lube, lol.

Not a good argument.

A business model is required before starts said business. It's pretty obvious that Mike never had a monetary plan in place before starting this purely self centered internet show. If he had content worth charging for, it would have been addressed and exacted upon the business debut in the marketplace. For instance, if Mike had sought out one sole sponsor for six months or a year before starting, he could focus on the content, not the daily begging for money.
Oh, and this, too. He just sin't very good at the mic.

Are you all aware of the money Don and Mike were raking in in the last few years of their show? I know for a FACT Don's yearly salary (in 2006 at least) was $6 million. Mike's probably wasn't that big, but you can bet your ass it was close, and even for someone who has terrible business sense and ran a bar into the ground and has alimony and child support, it's pretty hard to piss enough of that away in 5 years that he couldn't afford a Porsche.

Not 'mediocore'. Seeing people do the 'minimum' is irritating and insulting to an audience. If you were a totally new upstart with no fan base, what you're doing would be a great start. But there's a very long shadow being cast over a pretty pathetic attempt at a podcast. Me personally am not cool on hating people's wives and kids or other lowblows, I just want a better show. I haven't listened in a long time but keep checking this forum for good news of a better show. Tain't happened yet.

Borscht, Really man, Don Geronimo was the $6 million man? That sounds highly inflated. I'll take a rough guess of $750,000 for the honorable Mr. Geronimo with O'Meara probably getting 50% of that or even less. After all Geronimo was the captain of the good ship Don and Mike. If you think O'Meara was making close to $6 million then why oh why is his podcast all about raising cash. O'Meara could have set aside some of his moolah to finance the podcast project. Wonder if he has an accountant who advised him about the foolhardy attempt to make a go with podcasts. Plus what was top total gross ad revenue for WJFK during the Don and Mike years? I think I saw something like $30 million reported in the Washington Business Journal and that was during the Howard Stern years. Btws, what does bandwith go for?

Geronimo made over $2 million per year. O'Meara made roughly half. Don owned the show. No way O'Meara should be trolling for cash, he should be able to finance a podcast out of his own pocket. CBS has gotten rid of most of their over seven figure shows now Though the morning guy at WIP in Philly just got a million a year from CBS, according to the P Enquirer.

Oh please - whoever you are. Have you any idea how much bandwidth and server fees cost? If you are with jfk, then I am not sure you do as the website blows. Hell, Oscar and Chad used to do extra shows that were good and I didn't see jfk slapping them up for people to listen to on the site.

I suppose he should just piss the money away every day and every month as the website and show grows. You have no idea what the traffic is there. How much do you make? Maybe we can all tell you what to do with your money.

Who's really the loser(s) in this scenario? I mean, you all are the ones hovering over your keyboards, glued to your computer speakers, and waiting with baited breath to find something about O'Meara and his show...anything...to bitch and moan about. How do your boss's, coworker's, customers, families and friends feel about the way you spend your time? You think they'd be proud? You think you'd still have a job if your office knew? Are you really proud of yourself for typing out all of that hatred on a message board? If you are...good for you.

While it is possible that something to this effect might be muttered if Mike was still heavily intoxicated from the previous evening’s all night drinking binge. I see the odds of hell freezing over being more favorable, among all of the things Mike has pissed away you will not find his ego! Even when homeless Mike is podcasting into an imaginary microphone on the street corner, he will still maintain his elitist attitude. I hope he maintains his fighting weight for his final 15 minutes on A&E’s Intervention, a la Rocky Lockridge.

Good work Young. I think a couple of days in ICU and things will really pick up.
This thread weaves the fabric of our common goal to entertain ourselves in spite of the dreaded podcast. If we don't mock and ridcule who will? It's a nasty job but somebody has to do it. By the way Perry isn't on the visiting list but thread can't wait to see Charles.

That will never happen, but when the podcast stops and when it is mentioned on DCRTV that Mike is doing mid-days on Froggie 99 in the Shenandoah, the circle will be complete.

MOM NEWS RELEASE

No show today, however the Mike O'Meara website has just introduced a new fangled, chat client!

# # #

FYI there are currently a whopping 14 users!

Let’s see how much traffic this little chat application generates. This will be the true test of how many users hit the site during the normal "show" time. The best part is the results (or lack of) are visible to everyone.

It's coming - Mike is talking about selling his house. Money is running out - so it's only a matter if time that the podcasts sinks.

They also reached a new low yesterday with the 'sho would I do if I was gay' bit. It's unreal that these guys would talk on the air about thgeir gay fanatasy men. Do they think people will respect them more for this? This show just isn't funny any more. I wonder if they go back and listen to it and EVER laugh out loud at anything they say on the air.

Buzz is cool - but he can't get a word in edgewise. They keep cutting him off - even during his news. I hope he leaves these losers and finds real work.

Mike, your rant about Oscar being late was sad. Don't you realize that he doesn't see you as a boss or authority figure? Figure it out - your show is a muse to him. You need hium - he doesn't need you. You should be kissing his ass.

I used to listen to these guys on WJFK - and I found the podcast and have been litening for a month or so. I think I'm done with it now. What a disappointment. It's not funny. They don't take calls. They talk about fraternity shit all day - They talk about themselves and the show itself way too much. They beg for money. Buzz hardly talks at all because they seem to like him silent (weird since I like his style). Mike always wants to talk about his damn dogs and their shit. He wants to talk about jacking off (I'm sure his wife loves this). They talk about food way too much (not radio friendly). If Mike doesn't hear what he wants to hear from the other guys - he berates them (and doesn't even realize it). There are no guests. The topics they talk about are irrelevant. They kind of remind me of some college kids learning how NOT to do a radio show. They need to act like adults, talk about adult stuff, and bring back the funny. I'll listen again in a month or so to see if it has changed. Hoping it does because I used to like the old show - but this new show really sucks.

Anyone else having a problem getting there? I just listened to a few shows a couple of days ago, so if the site is no longer accessable it just recently happened. I hope it comes back up soon.

O'Meara makes the big time - feature article in the InsideNova.com News & Messenger....

Manassas residents may not know it, but an international phenomenon happens five days a week on one of the city's nicest streets.

And the man whose name is on the enterprise doesn't even have to leave the living room couch to go to work.

That would be Mike O'Meara, the Washington-area radio veteran who found himself without a job last summer when WJFK-FM switched its format from guy talk to sports talk.

A JFK listener since I moved here in the late 1990s, I was bummed by the move, which ended O'Meara's gig and the "Big O and Dukes" show.

But O'Meara, perhaps the most famous person living in Manassas, came roaring back. And he brought the Big O, Oscar Santana, with him.

That duo, combined with longtime O'Meara buds Robb Spewak and Buzz Burbank, put together a one-hour podcast five days a week in a studio fashioned out of O'Meara's living room. It's on mikeomearashow.com.

The Internet radio show has been on since December, and it gets 15,000 to 18,000 downloads a day.

The regular version is free, but the guys also have broadcast some special pay-per-listen episodes.

Before the show taping a week ago, O'Meara said he's happy to be using his old skills with new technology.

Ironically, Mike can no longer afford his subscription. Perhaps he can borrow what’s left of his neighbor’s copy after they are done housebreaking their puppy.

“15,000 – 18,000 downloads a day”, Hilarious! Are you sure he wasn’t referring to bowel movements?

Looks like there are finally some new "reader reactions" to the article. Strange though, all of the new reactions seem to be written in the same “voice”. A voice that seems all too familiar…

Looks like the MOM crew wasn’t asleep at the wheel for too long, way to go with the damage control boys!

Bravo to the author of the most recent “reader reaction” to the O’Meara article. It was succinct, elegant, and got your point across, a point of view shared by many here. I didn’t even bother to post a comment on that site, looks like a lot of O’Mearafans didn’t exert the effort either. A strong statement has been made on this local rag’s site, rather than garnering praise the MOM crew is stuck combating the truth. Will it ever sink in?

I have reposted the “reaction” below, why waste a click?

Posted by BAM1981 on April 26, 2010 at 6:38 pm
I also signed up JUST to give my two cents on the show mentioned in this article.
The Mike O’Meara Show is a comedy radio show without the comedy. It’s as simple as that.
I listened to Don and Mike for 10 years. I’ll always have nothing but love for Mike, Buzz, Rob, and Oscar (thanks to D&M I became a Big O and Dukes fan too). I have to say, though, TMOS is just not funny.
Mike spends the majority of his show talking about food, or his dog’s bowel movements (the frequency of them, where they’re done, and the size of them). That’s when he’s not throwing a temper tantrum and yelling at a fellow cast member for some perceived slight.
I thought maybe a podcast show without the dubious influence of former producer Beth Anne McBride would make TMOS more tolerable. I was wrong.
I gave up on the show after Mike recently berated Buzz Burbank on the air. Buzz’s crime? He had the unmitigated gall to refuse to haul his grill to O’Meara’s house, and to suggest grilling salmon instead of red meat (Maybe Buzz suggested a healthy alternative to red meat so that Mike has a shot of living long enough to see his daughters graduate high school?). The toddler-like temper tantrum was the last straw for me. If Buzz has any sense, he’ll move on soon, too. He would be great for an all news station, or doing more voice over work.
Don Geronimo said years ago that he could do the Don and Mike Show without Mike. It led to a huge on-air fight between he and O’Meara. Turns out, Don was right. I listened to the show Don did on the Ocean City station two years ago, and the show he did on the Delaware station up until 6 months ago. Both were more entertaining than anything O’Meara has regurgitated into the microphone since going solo.
Despite all my criticism I DO like Mike and the boys. They were part of something I really loved. I DO hope they find a radio gig that allows them to be successful. However, The Mike O’Meara Show (either on-air, or on podcast) is not that gig.

On today's boring show - Mike spent over 25 minutes talking to Oscar like Oscar should be subservient. Oscar doesn't need Mike - it the other way around. Mike is such a douche for talking about it so much. I wonder if he knows how much time he spends non-entertaining? This squabble and berating is for discussion off the air, but Mike doesn't understand that I guess.

I just listened to the 1st half of today's "show". I know people pile on Mike here, but swear to God, it's not funny at all. He spends over 20 minutes harping at some lower level worker, while defensively answering questions.
What an insecure bully he sounds like. Stern, DonG, Imus, the best of them have actual content besides the large and in charge routine.
And he's not on the radio! (That AM station in Iowa that reruns his one hour I guess qualifies. Congratulations.) What an asswipe. Good luck every being heard on an FM station, anywhere, ever.
And keep on treating your hangers on like shit. That will work out nicely for you.
I have listened on and off since the old show went off. Now I'm a goner.

I appreciate that some people still download the show and at least try to listen to the whole thing. I don't want to do it myself so it keeps me up-to-date on how lousy each show is. I don't want to add to Mike's 15,000 to 18,000 downloads a day. Right.

Let’s all take a moment to reminisce and lament over what once was...

What’s your favorite D&M moment?

Some of my fondest D&M memories were the Elvis birthday shows, especially the ones on location. Here was a true “podcast”, just two guys and a DAT recorder. Of course we were lead to believe that they were beamed to us live via the magic of "special wireless technology" as Don stated. The boys just walked around, made observations and were naturally funny. These sorts of excursions required a lot of planning and coordination but when it came down to it the show consisted of D&M just being D&M. You wouldn’t find any tired bits, forced laughter or lambastment of others (excluding the patrons of Graceland). Oh the salad days of the Don & Mike show, how I miss them. Much like a floral arrangement in the shape of a hound dog, it’s fragile beauty has faded, leaving behind the dried up husk of a show now available for daily download. The memories of what once was will live on in the hearts and minds of all the listeners fortunate enough to have partaken in the sweet nectar of the radio gods. Seriously though, the Elvis birthday show, now that was a goddamn podcast Jack!

Honestly, I’m not WTL. I do however wish that WTL would return to posting on this thread. When you have experienced trauma, i.e. listening to TMOS, it’s best to share your feelings with a sympathetic group. Consider it a coping mechanism. We are all friends here, friends that share a common bond. If anyone wishes to return to this thread, I certainly will not judge and I don’t feel that others will either. My point is that the door is always open, to newcomers and thread founders alike.

But what happens at the end of next month when the fellas at Glory Days take a look at how much they spent on advertising and cross-reference it with the lack of new business, I don’t need to be a CFO to figure out the ROI on this little venture.

TMOS was a whopping 60th on the Itunes comedy podcasts earlier today. Slip - sliding away folks. You get what you deserve in the entertasinment business. Mike needs to find a way to make the show funny real fast. I thuink he's letting Robb take too much control because : a) Mike is lazy and techinically incapable of mixing a good show on the equipment and b) Robb loves this stuff and loves being in control.

Mike needs to find the funny fast. Mike, go back in time and remember what worked best when you were on your game - and rekindle that stuff fast! You are losing listeners, doing a generally boring podcast (berating Oscar for 20 minutes was not funny). Talking about shit and gas and food for much of the time isn;t funny. Have guests, take calls, quit talking ABOUT the show and DO a funny show. The show shouldn't be ABOUT the show - it should be funny stuff. By the way, Buzz is funny and you don't let him say enough - his wit will come out if you let him talk a little more!

The only thing WJFK has to offer is Chad Dukes and 2 of the Junkies. TMOS (and the Fukerton) are way more entertaining than listening to a station about sub par FUCKING awful "sports" teams. You jackasses really listen to a broadcast about how bad D.C. sports suck and you bash 4 guys who enjoy what they do and don't give a shit about this forum filled with cubicle-dwellers and "I hate my fucking life" northern Virginians?

Enjoy your humidity this summer, assholes :)

www.dahl.com. Enough said. This guy is doing what Mike aspires to do. He's a 30 year radio veterean. He lost his radio job (still had 270 some days left on his contract). He's been doing a class-act podcast since late 2009 - from his basement. With a staff. He has relevant news. He takes calls. He has guests. He sells merchandise. The web site is great.

I used to listen to Mike and the gang - but have looked around for a better daily podcast alternative and Steve Dahl is it.

Mike and gang - take a lesson and go check out Steve Dahl's operation. You can learn from his gig.

I miss the old show. I just found the podcast and found one thing - it isn't funny. Mike has missed the boat on this one. They laugh at themselves a lot - but I wonder if they think others are laughing with them? No phone calls? No guests? Only and hour long? Seems like too short a time period for 4 guys to have enough to say? I wish them luck, but I won't be listening any more. From what I can see on Itunes, they have about 3,000 listeners and are ranked like 60th in comedy. Do they have a muzzle on Buzz? He hardly talks, and I miss him. He's witty and wise and seems to be muted on this show (until the last few minutes, which isn't enough). Robb continues to be an ass - just like he was on the old show. Oscar is a good addition, but from the podcast I heard the other day, it doesn't sound like Mike will keep him around. He kind of treated him little a 10 year old kid on the air - and it was pretty sad. They spent like 20 minutes talking about stuff that shouldn't have been on thr air. Mike lacks tact for sure. He should look for a radio gig because I think this podcast thing is going nowhere.

I don't think anybody has ever claimed on this thread EVER that they are fans/avid listeners of "The Fan". You think 65 pages of MOMS criticism is bad? Trying to document the suckiness of the current WJFK format on a daily basis would take 165+ pages at LEAST. We talk about MOMS podcast here because we do still listen to it (for the most part), and it represents the last beatings of the heart on life-support that is the old WJFK.
As for The Fukerton and ROD Radio, while entertaining at times, in many ways its the "MOMS Jr.", only with Chad Dukes as the egomaniacal center of his own cult of personality, surrounding himself with third-rate radio flunkies like Othello and Blue Shorts. I'll take a Buzz Burbank and even a Robbay over those non-starters any day.

It’s a new dawn, a new day...

Nice to see the "Belcher" chiming in, thanks for stopping by, feel free to grace us with your comments anytime. Although, much like your comedy, your post seemed a bit phoned in, how about a little more effort next time big guy.

New Topic: Buzz

I know there are a lot of Buzz fans out there. I think Buzz is a genuinely nice guy, other than his politics, I really can’t find many faults. But everyone seems to think that buzz is being held back and is not allowed to speak. I honestly believe that Buzz really doesn’t have that much to say. Did anyone ever listen to his old Sunday morning show on JFK? If you didn’t catch it I’ll provide you with a one word abstract: Horrid! While a very nice man, Buzz really isn’t much of a radio personality. He is good for the occasional zinger here and there and he makes a great straight man. If you remember, the laughs on the D&M show were mostly at Buzz and not with him.

I know many people will disagree with my opinion, I invite you to present a good argument.

Mike won't let Oscar go because he knows how important oscar is to the show. Oscar drives listeners to the show and does so much behind the scenes that most of us don't even know about. The only thing Mike needs to worry about is Oscar leaving the shown on his own because he is sick of being yelled at by mike.

I can get behind what you have said. I stand corrected.
On the same note, I think Chad is just having a good time being Chad. I don't really see it as a 'cult of personality'. I'm the same age he is and I love my job, I just respect the fact that, in this economy, he really that much fun at (and after) work.

Good point Yabels. When I said 'assholes' It was indirect)

Agree with the "YoungDCian" regarding Buzz. He's good for throwing in the zinger from right field but it just ain't there with Buzzito to be a full time contributor to the laughs and hi jinks. I guess Donnie baby figured that out by letting Buzz swim on his own occasionally on the D&M show and resulting in Buzz floundering. I'm sure buzz is a nice dude and all but I sure wish he'd never shared that stuff about going commando.

As for senor Oscar I think it would be interesting to see him say eff you to O'Meara and hit the road. I found interesting the podcast this week were O'Meara says that the Big O is just to uptight about life. After all the Big O is making lots of money these days. Hey baby if you got it flaunt(?) it seems to be O'Meara's mindset. I imagine that the Big O having lost 2 radio jobs in the recent past and seeing that the days of guy talk format are dead for awhile is a bit tenative to go out and start spending money and being a hotshot like O'Meara must have been when he was making the big salary. Figure the Big O wants to have an FU nest egg before flaunting it baby. Kind of insight into the O'Meara thought process. Bitching all the time about the financial state and then telling a friend(?) to go out and spend cash and enjoy the finer things in life. What an asshat O'Meara is.

What you say about Buzz and his Sunday morning show is the way I always felt about Mike in the D&M days when Mike was left to his own devices. On the rare occasions where Don would walk away from the microphone and when Mike was left to do the show alone (ie. when Freda died), the show came to a screeching halt. I never thought he was in his comfort zone at the helm. He should have id'd a significant co-talent before he embarked on TMOS. "Promoting" Buzz and Robb wasnt a wise decision, and one, for some reason, he keeps sticking to.

I agree with YoungDC and the others who posted. Buzz and Robb are not anymore of a "lead" man, then Mike. Everyone keeps saying Buzz should do voice over work. Is there really much of a market for that? Problem is this is a show where everone is a "sidekick" personality.

Good point! I remember when Mike had to slip on the alpha male shoes in Don’s absence, what a disappointment. I must say though, he has improved slightly since those days. Now that he has had to peel away the second banana persona and the ambiguity that comes along with it, we are able to see the real Mike O’Meara. Mike’s angry outbursts are almost a daily occurrence, as are the little life lessons that he offers up like candy. Telling Oscar to enjoy life a little more by blowing cash like it’s going out of style, are you suggesting that he purchase a Porsche Cayenne then be forced to "downgrade" when things don’t go so well? Mike, you obviously haven’t learned your lesson, have you?

Another excellent idea from the TMOS brain trust...

A TMOS golf tournament! The gang will be hosting a tourney at some local shithole that is wasting money (advertising) on the podcast. So they are encouraging all of their listeners to trek out to the middle of nowhere to watch Mike waddle his way up to each hole. This should go well. At least the turnout (or lack of) will be a good dose of reality for everyone involved. The whole exercise has served up cold bowl of reality for Mike; hosting a "tournament" at a course that he wouldn’t have debased himself to urinate on a few years ago.

Check out the luxuriant amenities:

Never could figure out why BAM did this. a desperate attempt to improve ratings for a tool like O'Meara. Do I see a little bit of crazy in those dark eyes of BAM?
