Bubba the Love Sponge Listening Thread (week of 4/16/2012)

Mizornin..wonder what the announcement will be.

[Chob]

Everyone must be available and pick up the phone right when Bubba calls. So sayeth Bubba Law.

Mizornin..wonder what the announcement will be.

He's going to be on WLUP in Chicago. Lock it in.

Of course that's what I said when he went on that rinky dink Detroit station. But the hype behind said announcement and the way they talked about it makes me think it's bigger.

[milkman]

What kind of shady deal is this?

[Chob]

Benny "Randy Michaels" Homel's company owns that station which makes me wonder why if he's such a good buddy, Bubba isn't on there yet. I was looking at the Radio-Info boards to see if there's any rumors about this and saw that WLUP is supposedly doing quite well.

Chicago is the third largest Arbitron market. And lets face it, the chances for this show to get on in L.A or NYC (which doesn't even have a rock station) are slim to none.

I was thinkin maybe they are going to switch to the 10-2 slot.

That would be a terrible idea. This show dominates the Tampa area as a morning show. I don't see why they'd fuck with it. Also it would completely fuck IO up.

[milkman]

Because Bubba is sick of waking up. Just a thought.

[Chob]

If I keep saying they're going on in Chicago, one of these days I'll be right.

[milkman]

And last I remember, Bubba doesn't seem to give a fuck what he fucks up, as long as it suits him.

[Chob]

Because Bubba is sick of waking up. Just a thought.

He has a contract to do a morning show for Cox and a midday show for IO. He'd have to renegotiate two contracts for that.

[milkman]

That was funny.

[milkman]

Yeah, I don't think that will happen either Chob, just the first thing I thought of driving in half asleep.

[Chob]

First thought is a new market. Maybe a contest of some kind? A return to Sirius XM? Could be a lot of things.

If it's the last one at least these dumb fucks will stop calling in asking when Bubba's going back to Sirius.

[milkman]

After Howies court loss..I highly doubt that is happening.

[Chob]

Well he's going to appeal it so it sure as hell isn't over.
