Drew Garabo Listening Thread - January 2013

[Ken Masters]

lip syncing should be a crime

it's a measurment of how talented a singer actually is. You don't get 15 do overs in a studio when it's live.

[SJ]

Sorry we haven't been as active the past couple weeks Drew...

but a trial of the century only comes, well once a century

Looking forward to hearing you for an extra hour!

[Chob]

More than a show behind but a few things:

-I don't know what Danielle was thinking, or know why that caller brought up the Carmin thing BUT...what I do know is this seems like one of those things someone is looking to take advantage of to stir shit and cause dissension. It's bullshit as far as I'm concerned. The best thing to do in a situation like that, I think, is to resolve the matter off air, one on one. Danielle is a class act and I can't see her slamming someone on her same team. Although I fully support clowning someone on your own team if they're as much of a douchebag as MJ. Just saying.

-Meredith being...not the sharpest tool in the shed is in no way an act. She was late to court in the MJ trial, called Bubba's audience "unrealistic" when she probably meant something like "crazy" or "ridiculous," and was playing with her hair like a caricature of a dumb blonde stereotype during sidebars. So Danielle, if you're out there, it's no schtick and thank YOU for not falling into that dumb girl on the radio stereotype. There should be more women on air like you.

-The waiter is there to do his fucking job, not to get in someone's grill, as they say, because they said something he didn't like. It's up there with someone who forgets your straw.

[Chob]

Wait a second. Eric Deggans, the same Eric Deggans that was telling Bubba he perpetuates negative stereotypes and wrote a book on race was making racial jokes? I hope they were tame.

[SJ]

lol I just can't get enough of how drew rips up these callers

Garabooo VS Limbaugh 2013

Slice Nights

[SJ]

While I agree that it's career suicide to sing the national anthem for some singers if you screw it up - I disagree on the principle that a real singer should be able to sing the anthem live IMO and not screw it up.

We forget that thousands have sung it without incident. We only remember the screw ups

[Chob]

If you can't hack it, you shouldn't get that honor. IMO.

[SJ]

ty drew for getting the stupidity of this trial.

[Chob]

Just got to "Slice." It's one of those gaffes that will live on.

[SJ]

"uh oh"

man that one I think set the bar for anthem fuckeups

The roseanne one was pretty talked about but after I saw that roast it was all theater of the mind


Come to think of it - if you aren't A list, fucking up the anthem is a good way to get free press...

It is a pretty thankless endeavor to be honest.

Also I like Drew talking about the trial. I like hearing any other broadcaster's take on it as well. I've seen people online that like other shows but don't like Bubba root against him. I want to shake them by the collar and tell them that this doesn't only threaten Bubba, it threatens any show they like and it threatens their own right to talk bad about Bubba or anyone else online if taken to it's logical extension. Some people are so spiteful that they will root against their own best interest.

[SJ]

Should be an interesting one today for sure

[Chob]

Bubba, Brent or Steve Diaco call? Sweet.
