Yeah, every once in a while they will cover something that just isn't interesting at all, but I guess you're going to get that with any radio show, no matter how good it is.

I never realized they try to conceal the location. Only two things really bother me. 1) I haven't heard the DUDE in a while. (I can't listen every day so there might be a reason, but it can't be a good one) 2) Wings tends to stutter during WHWT and for some reason that drives me crazy.
I can't think of anything else really.

When they talk about politics. I am very politically active and rarely agree. I would like to keep "free" beer and politics separate.

I listen purely for entertainment in the mornings so nothing they do really bothers me.

I don't mind when they intelligently discuss politics - but when they (and by they I mean Zane, since he does it most) go off about how President Bush is stupid because he can't speak, that really annoys me.

I love it when they talk about politics. Also, I think they are a little harsh on the President, even though I agree with them.

It's just an unintelligent perspective. If you have a legitimate policy complaint, fine. Let's discuss politics. But to resort to "he's a dummy because he doesn't articulate well", that's the idiot's way out.
I love political debate, but only when that debate is based on differing ideologies.

See that is my point. They don't have the opposing viewpoint. When that happens and there are no challenges, it is as bad as listening to Limbaugh. I personally like it when they rip G-Dub.

Oh, trust me, they DO have different perspectives as I. Your comparison to Rush Limbaugh perplexes me, however. Rush bases his entire career on pointing out hypocrisies and ideological differences. How is that anything like calling someone stupid because he's not a good public speaker?

When they do stump the show, no matter what the judge says they say the opposite. If they give it to the listener they disagree and if the judge says no they almost always say "aw we would have given that one to you..." god its annoying!

OMG the minutiae judges drive me up the fricken wall. Chicks will ALMOST always get their free pass, and it bugs me when the judge says something like, "Well I hate NASCAR so that's minutiae."

I've heard Rush rip on people for things such as being a bad public speaker.

We are talking about two different things hotzester. My reference to Rush was a completely one sided conversation that doesn't allow for new ideas and perpetuates the "same ol, same ol" ways of thinking.
Also, I don't think calling G-Dub stupid is necessarily "political conversation," I'm referring more to when they get down to "real" political talk, such as "policy" or "party" or "societal" issues. If they just sit there and bash politicians, I'm all about it, because the show is about bashing.
And I realize they do have differing perspectives, but they all come from conservative, more right leaning, perspectives.

Sometimes, yes. But that's pretty much the crux of every Zane argument about politics.
Not that it matters, I can't bring myself to gain political insight from someone who doesn't know who Nancy Pelosi is anyway.

Yea i could pretty much do without stump the show, nothing ever comes of it and is hardly ever funny. One of the only segments i skip on my podcasts.

I hate it when they find the STUPIDEST crap to talk about, some annoying sound bite and play it over and over and OVER AND OVER AND OVER!! Then talk about how f in annoying it is!! We get it . . we are listening . . for the moment . . .okay we'll just turn it down. I agree, Queenofwhoreisland (love the name), they did that recently and I just shut the radio off.

No chicks on the show! If chicks are ever on the show, it should only be when they are being humiliated.

The only thing that irks me about the show is when the guys take a whole segment to discuss a youtube video (which has been happening more in recent times, understandable to a point).
I know that they'd like to have some traffic on the site, but I shouldn't have to surf the 'net in order to follow what a radio show is talking about.

And that's it. Love the show.

Ok!!! I just thought of something. What the ef is "Kaboobie"? I hate it when people say it. I'm embarrassed when I'm trying to get people to listen to the show and someone says it. Please explain.

The one thing that bugs me is when they drag out the introduction to a bit. like a teaser for Entertainment Tonight. Example- I'm sitting in my car waiting to go into work and they talk about the story of women having sex with the boys, but they feel the need to explain all the background, so by the time they get to the story it's to late. I've gone into work
