I was up all night last night n managed to be conscious enough to listen to the show and was shocked to hear something that the show was gonna be shut down. If anyone could confirm or assure me its not true I'd be..... well happy or sad, I haven't been listening to them more than like once per week but I'd really feel empty if they went off 8(

The only times I've ever heard anything close to this have been two scenarios:
1) Free Beer's play-by-play career has begun to take off, and Eric Zane has expressed his concern on the air that, eventually, Free Beer may not be able to balance both that and the show. Now, Free Beer has publicly stated that he has no intention of leaving the show and wants to be able to do both indefinitely. But there's little doubt that, if he were forced to choose, he would choose play-by-play because that's always been his dream.
If it came to that, the other guys would attempt to find a replacement for Free Beer and carry on without him. How well would that work? Only one way to find out, but I don't expect it to happen any time soon. Although FB's play-by-play career is going well, it is still in its infancy.
2) More recently, there has been news that their station in Benton Harbor, Michigan, has chosen to drop the show--today was the last day, I think. This DOES NOT mean that the show is coming to an end at all, just that they won't be on the air in Benton Harbor anymore. If you were listening this morning, then that is probably what you heard.
That sucks when a station drops the show. It personally offends me, not only because the guys are friends of mine, but also because I think the FBHW show is great and feel my good taste is insulted when others don't. But let me tell you something: the syndication deal they have going is awesome. Sure, when you're on some 20 stations and you get dropped from one, that hurts. But not nearly as much as when you're on ONE station and get dropped.
