Does anyone know if Burke's podcast today that was supposed to reveal what went down on why he got fired was worth paying the ala carte price of listening to?
No real surprise the Bone let him go. His show sucked on it. And I like Burke normally. But not enough to pay to listen to him unless it is something particularly noteworthy. -- Edit: I went ahead and bought a one-time weekly subscription and the 'inside iggy' that he mentioned on Twitter is that their was no 'inside iggy.' Shannon didn't want to 'bad mouth anyone' [his words], and really didn't get into anything. The most enlightening thing he said about the firing is that he can't go back into the Tampa Bay market for 6 months due to a non-compete agreement. My verdict is it wasn't worth the $3.99 that I had to shell out and won't be doing it again. |

Shannon mentioned yesterday that Rick quit a week before "things went down" but that he [Rick] and Shifty might be coming every Wednesday to do a "free live show" on Tuneinradio in an effort to garner more subscriptions.
He [Shannon] was also pondering doing a Saturday "weekly news" podcast with SBK. Since I paid for the week, I'll see if Shannon can pick up the pace beyond the poor presentation he gave already. |

Shannon's second show was better than the first. He brought on 'one of his football buddies' to help him out. From what I remember, the guy's name is John Farley, and he was okay. They just shot the shit back and forth, discussing news stories. Certainly sounded better than when Shannon was just by himself broadcasting. Supposedly, the guy will be showing up weekly to assist. Or at least, that's Shannon's plan.
Still not something I'd [continue to pay] to listen to though once my week is up. I hope Shannon gets Sean Ras on. I enjoyed listening to their back-and-forth when it was over on I.O. One thing I don't get is at the end of Shannon's podcast, he plays the rejoinder that he had when he was still on the Bone. Clearly the same announcer that says "The Shannon Burke Show." It even had '102.5 The Bone' at the very tail end before it got cut off. Is that even legal? For Shannon to keep using it? I could see him - maybe - getting away with it if it just said [Shannon's name], but it didn't. Just seems lazy and sloppy on his part. To not get it recut now that he is no longer employed with them. |

Bummed that he got fired, but apparently Cox doesn't really know what it wants to do. Howard has always maintained you need a couple of years on the air before a show gets its legs. Cox doesn't allow for that and, for some odd reason, doesn't even do much to promote/sell anything outside of Calta. Spice never got a fair shake, and Shannon was on a super short leash from the get-go, resulting in him pairing up with SBK (who had his own Cox deal). Even with the great chemistry between Shannon and SBK, Cox failed to recognize they had something there they should help grow.
This is a real shame, because Shannon is a better broadcaster than all those jobbers on The Bone, including Calta. With the ratings as they are, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more changes coming. Maybe not to entire shows, but to who is on those shows. Smaller on-air staff on Calta? Same with Drew? We'll see. |

putting on a show with one host having the most annoying yankee accent imaginable in a mostly southern market is not a way to get listeners

Got an email stating that Bubba will be on Shannon's podcast on Monday and that it will be 'an exclusive' to [Shannon's] show. And that one can only listen to it if they're 'a monthly subscriber.'
I say, no thank you, Shannon. All the talk does or will do is basically verify that Bubba wants you to come back somehow to his station once your non-compete expires, and I don't need to pay you more money to decipher that out. |
