1090 ranting.

Hey guys, this is a pretty cool site. I agree with all the bashing of 1090. That new show with ATL Earl and Jordan from Downtown is probably the worst thing I've heard on 1090, and I've been listening since day one when they had the Butt Brothers on the air. I'm a frequent caller to many of the shows and write lots of letters to the editor in the UT. I go by Paul from Clairemont. Kaplan invited me to that fan forum that ATL Earl and Jordan were at but I'm a teacher and couldn't make it. I feel like I was being "sniffed at" by those guys for a shot at show as I'm a native San Diegan, have a B. A. in communications, have had radio internships, and have more credibility than those other guys. But like I said, I'm a teacher. There's no way I'm quitting that for a minimum wage radio job.

That show should really at least have one San Diego native

or at least long term Padres fan on it.

Agreed....

or at least someone who called a show and said something more than “everything’s horrible”. Wow real insightful.

1090 is unlistenable

If you want a job there, just wait a few weeks when the sound of chalk on a blackboard grows tiring.

That Eastern accent is truly annoying

and ATL Earl doesnt like the Chargers.

Plus they sound self-righteous all the time..

I dont care if tehy are supposed to sound this way.

I agree w/all four of the posts

They have NOTHING interesting to say and I am forced to take refuge over at XTRA Sports with “The Drive” which is a half step up

The Drive kinda sucks, too. I can’t stand that Dotseth guy.

I dont think the drive isnt too bad...

but it was much better when it was Dave and Jeff.

It's like being the tallest midget

When it first came on it seemed amateurish and second-rate. Now, if you compare it to the Bleacher Bums, it seems like its a first class talk radio show.
