SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 best first hour of the national show ever. greg cote is the best. i'm so glad he did this and stuck it to that arrogant gas bag. Link to post Share on other sites
Essay21 2,385 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Pipo is the best thing to happen to the show in years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Pipo is great. I know those guys. I get some stuff translated by a Cuban friend I turned on to it The show is just full troll now. I still listen out of habit and the occasional good segment, but it’s mostly shit now. And don’t get me started on the Johnny come lately sycophants on twitter telling people they don’t get the show I listen to the local hour which is a full troll, and the best of, which seems to be just cutting in the troll stuff and cutting out the real content. I turned off the Legler stuff, which i’m sure was great on tv, but not good radio. He came back from a break apologizing about getting the Reid vs Jenkins stuff wrong, but they didn’t play it in the best of. Plus, he yelled at Allison to shut up a few times when she was taking as the reaper, yet that gag is dead and stupid, and you couldn’t hear her on radio. And either fire Cote and shut up about it Plus, stu isn’t even trying. Just a total parrot. You can tell when he repeats a joke. “How bout that?” Is his tell Plus the this guy bit was Hochmans, and Hochman was funnier. Clearly mostly over the show. Still enjoy Mike, Billy and Chris in the proper doses. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Essay21 2,385 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 dan and stu gave up years ago. most days i can’t listen to more than any one section of the cast. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I was disappointed when all the people were brought back to say Happy Birthday to Dan, that Hoch wasn't one of them. I mean to have ****ing reggie, and not Hoch is just disrespectful. Hoch said on twitter that he even offered to do one, but was told no. I want to know what the behind the scenes beef is like between him and mike ryan. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Untilted 158 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Highly Questionable is basically the only non-game programming that I can stomach watching on ESPN Everything else, is just like watching Paul Finebaum or nails scratching on a chalkboard. Not sure what is worse Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I like High Noon and the jump also, but I agree mostly. Link to post Share on other sites
YonYonson 156 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 high noon is a disaster, admit it already. i can't listen to lebatard anymore. dan has been on repeats for years now and i've literally heard anything he is ever going to say. Link to post Share on other sites

YonYonson 156 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 my opinions on media are respected the internet over. i will say that lately i have really been enjoying the Bill Simmons Podcast. The end of year compilation of all the "parent corner" segments he and cousin sal did on the guess the lines pod was great. then his nil stuff and now one with Adam McKay. Plus the Godfather Reqatchables. I liked them all. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
David_Sklansky 1,903 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Are we including ESPN+? Because Always Late I think is probably the best non-game property at ESPN. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 If you guys get a chance, you should read the Hochman AMA on Reddit while it's still pinned. It's really honest and interesting, for long time fans of the show. Link to post Share on other sites

brvheart 1,752 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 That was great and confirms most of what I assumed. Dan's an ass and the show is much worse than it would have been with Marc. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Well it is wholly from Hoch's pov. If it's true dan was no longer even looking at Hochman towards the end of their run, there had to be a reason why, other than Dan was an ass. I did find the level of acrimony at the end to be shocking, and I'm sad that Hoch isn't invited to Dan's wedding, given their personal history together. Again, there has to be more to this story than what Hoch presented. That Zaslow stopped talking to Hoch, and has never spoken to him to this day, leads me to believe that working with Hoch must not be a peach. I will say, given Dan's view of tyrant head coaches, the fact that Hoch has never had a boss yell at him like Dan has to be really hypocritical, if true. The Dan Lebatard Orbit I find to be really, really interesting. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I haven't listened to the show now in almost a year, but it was obvious by the end of my time listening that dan lebatard is a complete tool. none of that surprises me. Link to post Share on other sites
brvheart 1,752 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 I totally get that this is one-sided, but even filtering for bias, statistically some of that stuff happened. And if even 20% of it happened, which feels really conservative, my conclusion would be the same. For example, no boss should ever scream at his employees for any reason. Full stop. I'm sad that Hoch isn't invited to Dan's wedding, given their personal history together. This is horrible. The Dan Lebatard Orbit I find to be really, really interesting. No doubt.
