Sal is sitting in? He is fun in short burst because he always starts going over board or gets insane and creepy for no reason. Hope Fred is okay and back soon, Sal can't carry that forever, but he is great for stirring poo poo up.

His constant chirps at Gary and JD when they were in the studio were great. I might stir up something by saying this, but I wouldn't mind if Sal sat in Artie's chair and berate the staff, guests and callers - even if it was just temporary. If Benjy can sit in the studio I think Sal should too

No, I think everyone is in agreement that the studio need another voice. Just turn Sal's mic on and let him talk about his marriage.

Why does that dude's balls weigh 145lbs? Why hasn't he gone to the doctor to take care of it?

Sirius offered me 5 months for $25, how do I get the best deal if I decide to renew?

Clear Channel is a bunch of scum bags and Bob was very naive in the way he did business with them.

Waking up with the Wolf is the morning show at WPYX in Albany. One of the sidekicks on the show was a guy named Eddie Clark. Clark got fired, and after a short tryout WPYX approached Bob to take his spot. The catch was that until they paid off the rest of Eddie Clark's contract, they would pay Bob a minimal amount. Bob described the amount as enough to pay his monthly child support. Once Clark's contract was paid off, they would sign Bob on a permanent basis.

Bob worked two months commuting back to Jersey on the weekends. A month ago he and his wife moved to Albany. After cancelling 3 or 4 meetings to discuss the contract, the WPYX program director (who is also the midday guy) pulled Bob into a meeting after Monday's show. He told Bob that there was no money for his position, they would not be giving him a contract, not to come in on Tuesday, and had him escorted from the building.

Radio is a sleazy business, but it doesn't get much sleazier than this. Station management had to know a month ago that they couldn't pay Bob, but they said nothing and let him move. Bob's wife had a good job that she left. At least Bob didn't sell his house in Jersey and is renting in Albany.

Bob has to take his share of the responsibility. To take this job without a firm contract was incredibly foolish. Now he's in Albany, 4 hours from his son, his wife gave up her good job, and Clear Channel told him to get hosed.

Bob takes a lot of poo poo on SFN (I'm sure there's more coming in this thread), but he's a good guy and it's too bad he got hosed over like this.

I remember when Howard was goofing on him for the intro to Hot for Teacher then they actually listened to it and realized it was that insane and Richard totally nailed it.

Ya, I'm not going to listen to the Lars interview. That guy is the worst drummer in mainstream music by far and Richard destroys him. I can't handle hearing the kiss rear end bullshit from the staff Lars can barely handle doing a simple rock beat without being offtime. Richard took Gene Hoglan's place in Death. That should tell you what kind of caliber player Richard is.

I want to say that back when Richard started the Charred Walls of the Damned project, they played some of his drumming from Death's "Sound of Perseverance" album on the show. Everyone pretty much mocked it, except for Fred.

Lars was great in the 80s and a bit in the 90s. I remember listening to their newest album and thinking that he's the only drummer I know whose style hasn't changed in nearly 30 years.

That's pretty bad.

Well Howard will mock anything that he didn't make and if he doesn't mock it he claims he invented it and the rest just do what Howard wants, even Fred was mocking him when he obviously didn't want to, but I think he just wanted to keep the joke going.

Also everything everyone else does is a waste of time to Howard any way.

Richard would die without Howard, emotionally, he could never "quit" the show. They are going to have to pry him out of there the day Howard leaves, he is going to be like Fry's dog, going in each day waiting for Howard to come back.
