My top 3 annoying Detroit media:
Jason Carr-toolbag
Bernie Smilovitz-tired schtick
Dan Leach-impossible to listen to
Honorable Mention: Maurielle Lue-not as bad as she used to be but can still be annoying

Re: Detroit annoyance list
I can't hit the remote fast enough whenever these media personalities appear:
Kim DeGiulio WDIV Traffic - permanent (fake)smile; no substance
Michael Estime FOX2 Weather - seems like a nice guy but a little too happy and enthusiastic
Charlie Langston FOX2 News - Too loud and abrasive; why is he covering serious news?
Bernie Smilovitz WDIV Sports - On the air over 25-30 years (?) and no one has told him the truth??? Sorry, Bernie, you're NOT FUNNY!!!

Dave Dahmer. Just can't get past his last name. He should change it. And his voice sounds like somebody who would end up on a TV crime show. The station should give him a scholarship to Specs Howard to become someone different.
Jeffrey Dahmer's brother, Dave Dahmer, assuming he is a different Dave Dahmer, changed his name and moved away. It seems like using Dahmer on the air would be like using "Chester the Molester", like someone in the Lansing Jackson radio market did 40 years ago.

Disagreeing with Communists is NOT an impeachable offense.

Re: Detroit annoyance list
Frank Beckmann and Guy Gordon.
How either one is still there puzzles me. Frank's producer, Chris Renwick, is a better host, gets better callers, and puts on a better show when he's filling in. Guy Gordon never worked from the get-go. Trainwreck radio at it's finest.

Re: Detroit annoyance list
1) Smilovitz- His act/schtick grew old at least 10 years ago. It's like fermenting cheese right now.
2) Valenti- The anti U-M stuff- I get it he went to MSU but at this point its vindictive. With him and Beard now I don't even give those guys the time of day.
3) Wojo- the radio one only- annoying voice sounds like he's talking to his children. Newsprint Wojo is ok.

You hate Jason Carr because he gets to

Re: Detroit annoyance list
All of 97.1 ruined sports talk radio for me. I cannot listen to any of them.

The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Pamplin isn’t a real nice guy... he also makes his stories much more exciting then they are in person... a little embellishment shall we say on how people are feeling... 4’s MO...MotorCityRadioFreak wrote: ↑Wed Dec 09, 2020 8:23 pm Tim Pamplin from channel 4

Re: Detroit annoyance list
Charlie Langton is easily top of the list for me.
Re: Detroit annoyance list
Nah, good for him for that. To me, he just seems too smug; like we should be lucky he comes in to do that dumpster fire show.lidoshuffle wrote: ↑Wed Dec 09, 2020 7:28 pmYou hate Jason Carr because he gets to
