I generally solve this problem by not listening to people I think suck.  Not coincidentally this includes 99% of the sports media. 

omg a 4 page thread on absolutely nothing.

this is like asking why METV is excited to play Gomer Pyle 3 times a day.

I don't understand listening to sports talk radio period when there are podcasts out there with 1/10th the commercials.

Radio is generally something in the background while you do something else. I wouldn't seek out and cue up a string of podcasts to listen to for a drive or while I work. I don't see them as being similar in that respect.

I've heard pod casts linked here with significant amounts of ads in them.

Makes zero sense. Either Garcia screws over people and WFNZ or he's that close to hitman or both.

they fired Colin but kept Nate. They fired Yarbs but kept Frank. They fired Nate and kept frank. They fired QBC and kept Kroegs. They could have put bailey and Kroeger together. 

Hitman is an incompetent moron who has hitched his wagon to brain dead Garcia and are going to destroy what is left or WFNZ.

I don’t disagree that Garcia has survived the firings when he shouldn’t have. All I’m saying is if u remove Bailey from the equation, Kroegs would still have his original time slot.

Bailey and Kroegs are both great hosts. They deserve to be kept apart and have their own show in my opinion.

Colin def quit, I know his brother. QCB was trash. Unfortunately Yarbs always let Frank walk all over him and didn’t have a strong enough personality to coexist. And Nate...let’s face it...he couldn’t hold Bailey or Kroeg’s jock when it came to knowledge or delivery. 610 has been a lot better since those ppl left, even if it meant replaying earlier segments. 

At the end of the day, I really can’t stand Frank. However, I call in most just to argue with him. So maybe that’s why he’s lasted so long. He gets the reactions.

I love the radio cuz we can call in and be part of the discussion. Can’t do that with a podcast.

Its just like when we read one of your articles, we want to chime in and agree/disagree. 

Thats at least why I prefer radio over podcasts. That and it’s already on the second I start up my car...so maybe I’m lazy too

But where would we all learn about low T and Diamonds Direct?

I stopped listening a long time ago when Primetime with Pac-Man was let go. 

WFNZ entire catalogue is garbage.

To me, LeBatard is the best thing in radio or tv. I can't stand any other show talking about sports. With the possible exception of Dan Patrick and the studio show for NBA on TNT. The rest is self important nonsense that consistently thinks they know more than an average monkey. As witnessed by all 22 "experts" picking the Blazers over the Pelicans. As for Kroeger, on Twitter he's engaging so I have nothing against him.

Just to make your head spin a little, I listen to WFNZ every morning on my way to work, but I stream it from Knoxville. Have listened to Mac every work day for about ten years. 

There just aren’t good Panthers podcasts, so this is my only good option. 

I think "It's is what it is" and "keeppounDenn" are good podcasts. I do not like C3 though.

Thanks! I'll look those up. I do a podcast with a Bucs fan called "UDFA Podcast" but it's about all things NFL draft, and just a little is centered around the Panthers. I'd love to find a good show that's just perfectly directed to Panthers talk. I went on the Carolina Pro Football podcast once as a guest, but they haven't done many episodes in a long time. The Carolina Huddle show is good, but they haven't done one in forever.

Peopl actually still listen to the radio? Do they do it while reading the daily newspaper?

I tried it for a while when I had a couple hour drive to work. It got old real quick. Worse than watching ESPN.

That’s a fine
