    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    More shots from Fred around 7:30 this morning. He and Hardy were discussing Steve Albini with fondness, and Fred indicated he had received an email or two about some previous negative comments he had made about Albini. Paraphrasing: "Well... if I said anything negative, it's because of the...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Hopefully that’s what the co-hosts are for. Rich is a master table-setter; let’s hope he has some co-hosts/second voices that can provide the color commentary in a funny way.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    If I recall correctly, his last day on air was November 10… if the clock starts then on a 6-month NC, then Friday would be the expiration. Split the difference and take a guess he starts right after Memorial Day (or June 1 as someone just hypothesized). If Brookline 911 and Fart Court are...

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    About 10 minutes ago he claimed, with a hint of faux surprise, that he was getting some “blowback” about his comments. He said it was a mistake and that he didn’t intend to make fun of Montgomery’s past issues. But he never apologized, and imo was not at all contrite. I thought he was borderline...

    Thoughts about media types who don't have their own threads

    A little schadenfreude for Kravitz, as Doyel replaced him after Kravitz departed the Indy Star a while back. Doyel has been a provocateur in Indy since Day 1. I know Kravitz has some residual baggage around here due to his DeflateGate bleating, but he actually wasn‘t a bad columnist. Doyel, on...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Former 98.5 The Sports Hub host Rich Shertenlieb announces his return to Boston radio Nothing significant that hasn't already been posted or well-known to those who followed T&R. Posted in the Globe last night...

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Yeah... just more of the same re ragging on Nick. Hardy is definitely more deft, but he needs to bring his own creativity to the show, not just recycle a hackneyed bit. Fred is still a great interviewer, so I'll try and stay tuned for the regular guests that I enjoy (including Bob Beers, who...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Oh I am definitely going to prioritize this over T&H to give it a shot. I imagine it will be more classic music, less sports (duh). I love sports, but Fred has been such a nightmare for the past few years now, I'm happy to see what Rich has to offer and (presumably) to have some music mixed...

    They've got their PK now, and have picked up two WRs in the portal, including prodigal son Amorion Walker.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    1. Tatum shouldn’t have shot after the whistle. That’s just asking for trouble, especially against a team like Miami. However… 2. Adebayo is 100% in the wrong there and it was a borderline dirty play. Asshole move on his part, but completely in character for the team. SVG was right about the...

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    It was even more tortured than that... Felger preferred Atlanta because they invested in the position, vs the Pats going from Newton to Mac to Maye... "pick a bad QB, fail, repeat every three years... that's what bad teams do, and you're a bad team." Totally ignoring that Atlanta stuck with a...

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    The day after the Pats selected Maye: Felger: “I’d rather be Atlanta [taking Penix at R1-8 after signing Cousins] than you…” Mazz: “The pick sucked because it was a safe pick. I’d rather they took a gamble and showed some balls [by trading down for a lesser QB and collecting more picks]…”...

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    From 3 1/2 years ago. Fred’s “knowledge“ of Milton goes back to Milton’s Michigan days. He was a freshman in 2018(!) and became the starter in the disastrous 2020 Covid season (2-4, canceled rest of the season including game vs. OSU). Milton was a RS sophomore starter, didn’t play well, and...
