My recording of "Sports Talk..." is somewhat old-fashioned. I'm currently using a CC Witness Plus MP3 recorder from C. Crane, which apparently is out of production. I set the timer for 6:03pm to 9:00pm on Sundays and hook the microphone jack to the speaker outlet on my computer and using WKTK's stream, record the aforementioned stream. I then download the recording to Apple Music (the current version of iTunes).

Even when you point out something to Ron in the most specific way, he sees and hears only what he wants to see and hear.

Remember, all we have to fear is fear itself (or a lifetime ban)!
We should get our own imitators of Captain Janks. Instead of shouting "Howard Stern!" they can shout "Buzzboard!"

Thanks! Just listened to the first few seconds of the first hour. The podcast doesn’t begin at the start of the hour, starting only in the middle of what was Ron’s preemptory attack, before Mr. Positive could even begin to talk. But we get Ron’s drift.
I guess there is no record of Ron's new nickname for our group, something like "Buzztalk or whatever they're called."

Kurt's Name Game for next Sunday should be interesting, with the letter M next on tap.

Hall of Fame pitchers include Christy Mathewson (373 wins), Greg Maddux (355), Mike Mussina (270), Jack Morris (254), Joe McGinnity (246), and Juan Marichal (243). Ron will try to squeeze Denny McLain on there and do everything he can to keep Morris off.

HOF first basemen include Willie McCovey (521 HRs, 2211 hits) and Eddie Murray (504 HRs, 3255 hits, 3 Gold Gloves)

Two HOF players in center field (Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle) but none in right field. Mantle played 147 games in RF (versus 13 for Mays), so maybe Mickey can go to right.

Managers include Connie Mack (most wins), John McGraw (third most wins), and Joe McCarthy (highest winning percentage)

Kurt, aka Kurt the Hurt, I know you’re probably preoccupied working on added content for the new, expanded, fall season, but, presently, we have a rare opening, so please consider coming over to the dark side.

Yes. Did you miss what he said to Mr. Positive? Before Mr. Positive could say anything, Ron said he had to talk to him about something. And that was that he was never to mention us again. That he heard we had "slammed" two of his guests & he was not going to stand for that!
He has a Buzzboard mole!
I think you're right. I'm afraid to guess who, because it might turn out to be someone who's often been one of our friends.
Yes, in this the summer of the 50th anniversary of the Watergate break-in, who is Deep Throat?

Could it be Luke? Since 6/23 (p. 549), when he informed us that he had been out-of-town, not fired, he’s disappeared from these pages, & hasn’t responded to any of our comments and/or requests, e.g., letting Ron know that Frank, not he, was correct about the lack of podcasts. Perhaps Ron’s given him a cut of his highly lucrative ad deals.

What about Alex? He's not been heard from since (p. 558), when he broke the news that Denny was the guest that night.

Other candidates? How about our longtime nemesis, Greg from Warren? Or perhaps Kurt, who, while studiously ignoring us, perhaps been secretly seething over the less than stellar reception his long-planned, long-running, all-alphabet MLB team has received. And he has suspiciously tempered his criticism of Avila in the last couple weeks.
Another Nixonian parallel is the "enemies list" that Ron asked Luke to compile that includes callers who use the "B" word.

That also me reminds of those scenes in The Quiet Man where Victor McLaglen keeps a book of people he doesn't like.

Stan Musial will be Kurt’s first baseman.

Is Luke screening calls or just reading emails? What happened to the unnamed screener?

I think a case could be made for Mize at 1B and Musial in LF.

Mize's numbers would have been as big as McCovey's or Murray's if he hadn't served in WW II.

I've been using this link as a guideline: https://baseballhall.org/discover-more/ ... y-position

By this standard, Bill Mazeroski is an easy choice at second base.

This is a message to Luke.Do not turn your back on the buzzboard.You did the right thing by promoting your show on the buzzboard. It is a good show and you have talent.Do not be afraid of Ron.He is a 77 yr old man who,sells ads so he can pretend to be a sportstalk show host.If you have talent you,will make it in the buisness .Stop kissing Ron's ass and connect with your buzzboard fans.

As we - apparently - eagerly await the unveiling of Kurt’s all-M team, let’s not forget that Chuck from Belleville’s all-American League team is also expected to be released on this week’s spectacular, the only show on radio whose content is wholly produced by its listeners.

Thank you for the reminder! What a action packed show this is setting up to be! I don’t want to take away from my Sunday pre show post but look at a few things we have in store in what could be a historic episode!

1 Will Mr P even attempt to bring up the buzzboard after the historic scolding that rocked the buzzboard

2 The over under on the new time show reminder has to be about 20

3 Kurt’s letter game

4 Caller chucks all star team

5 caller Dave and “combero” talk

Who needs a guest-this alone is three hours!!!

I'm hoping that Mr. Positive says something like this: "R Sizzle, the Elvis of Sports Radio! Hey, real quick, I just wanted to say that I will not mention the Buzzboard because you don't want me to mention the Buzzboard because you felt that the Buzzboard took some cheap shots at two of your guests so I will not mention that the Buzzboard is listening right now and the Buzzboard helps promote your show even though the Buzzboard sometimes says some negative things about you so I will not mention the Buzzboard."
