It's amazing to me the lack of talent we have in Detroit with both television and radio. I haven't followed numbers in years. Is Detroit still considered a big market? I imagine we aren't top 10 anymore.

As I've mentioned in previous threads and others have mentioned here, it's time Bernie hang up his highlights.

I'm still amazed Jay Towers is doing anything on air. He's dreadful. Is the annoying and unfunny Allyson still with him on WNIC? Yeah I could google it, but I'm lazy.

Jay Towers for biggest douchebag in Detroit
Charlie Langton, for the stupidest shit.
Mojo in the morning, for having a morning show catered to 40+ women from Westland ON A TOP 40 STATION.

Top annoyance, the constant COVID-19 radio commercials with that gloom and doom woman's voice. Seconds into the ads I leave.

I was going to stay out of this thread. But I gotta comment on Towers. I really do think he needs to lose the mange and go clean shaven. To me, he looked better. Same with Michael Estime. When he came to Detroit, he was clean shaven. Then maybe because he seen Towers, he decided to keep the trimmer at #1. Here's the link to his Fox2 page. Don't he look much better clean shaven? Maybe it's just me:

Either shave or grow it out. One or the other.

Charlie Langdon does some stupid reporting, but I'd say Andrea Isom is a close second or a tie for stupidest shit. Her constant yelling makes my ears hurt. The restaurant stories she does are a waste of time. I was disappointed to find out she was back on the air when I moved back to Michigan a few years ago.

1 - Jason Carr - Stumbling thru copy should be reserved only for first year talents. You should know better.
2- Ryan Ermanni (sp) - Inside voice! Inside voice! Please, dude.
3- Karen Dru - Stop with the fear mongering! "Farts. Are your kids safe?" Stop it.
4- Paula Tutman - Drop the "Agaaain" schtick. It is so pretentious.
5- Carolyn Clifford - I hate the way she pushes the ends of her teases. "Watch! Or I'll tell your father" type vibes. Ugh

I still like the ever-smooth D Scillian but his co-anchor? Not so much. Nice smile but such a fake!

Jim Brandstatter and Dan Dierdorf on the 97.1 Michigan broadcasts. They are embarrassing.

Brandstatter is not a play-by-play guy, his best work is color analyst, Diedorf is ok, but needs a polished play-by-play guy to make him sound better...

Agreed. Brandy sounds like he's about to have a heart attack the way he huffs and puffs trying to do play by play while the Cryptkeeper Dierdorf sounds like he's a day away from death
