John Bacon on 105.1 Tomorrow

Submitted by umhero on

This afternoon Drew & Marc on 105.1 spent quite a bit of the show discussing John Bacon's latest book. Including references throughout the show. 

You can listen here LINK

Additionally they mentioned Bacon will be live in studio tomorrow, but I don't know the time. They may not be the most sportscentric show on the air but they both like Michigan. Marc is an Alum and based on some comments it seems he's a regular here on the blog but I don't know if he posts.

Marc if you are on here, what time will Bacon be on the show tomorrow?

I listened to that show one time and it changed the lives of a Michigan friend and I forever.

That being said, Dave Brandon is a crazy person.

I like Karsch and Anderson. Valenti and Forster is just awful, becuase Mike is an insecure jerk, and Terry has no sports knowledge whatsoever, i'm very confident Terry could't name 5 UofM football players this season.

It's crazy to me that people could actually like Valenti and Foster. Regardless of what the subject of the show is, it always turns into sports shock jock radio where Mike screams at callers. I find it totally obnoxious. I guess people like drama and that's really what their show is all about.

Wow just the looked the ratings up...didn't know 971 was killing it like they are. Out of all the cities in the top 15 of audio listenership, Metro Detroit is the only one to have a sports station hold the the top spot. I take that to mean this area does have the most passionate fans in the country.

But at least he doesn't pretend to be impartial while only being negative about UofM like some people on that station*coughCAPUTOcough*.  I listen to Karsch and Anderson when I can, and usually Jamie and Wojo on that network and usually flip back and forth between 97.1 and 105.1 from 5-6.

Just saw a nugget on twitter that confirms what we've believed around here for a long time - the book acknowledges that MGoBlog took down Dave Brandon.  Schlissel was going to let him finish out the year.  Canned him right after Brian ran with his article.  Wow.

Interesting stuff. It's amazing just how much is totally damning of not just Dave Brandon's decisions, but also his character/attitude entirely.

gna be a hater here, JUB is a good writer, but how in the heck did he get this much inside access all these years? i feel like anyone could have written these books if given this content.

Valenti is one of the few guys in Detroit that tells it like it is, whether you agree with him or not. This market is soft with talk show hosts and writers who write fluff pieces, instead of stories with some grit. The worst guy of all is Caputo, won't let callers get their points out and hangs up on callers more than Valenti. Caputo is like listening to Bobby Moynahan do Drunk Uncle on SNL!

Karsch and Anderson suck. You may like it if you wanna hear about what bar gator was hanging out at the night before. Or which one is gonna sniff Matt Staffords jock first. It's pitiful lions talk or talk about how Karsch has a mangina and how his wife wears the pants 24/7. I passed on that show a long time ago.

Pat Caputo is the worst thing in this entire state when it comes to sports. He's just a flat out liar.. and a loud, slobby, obnoxious one on top of that. Valenti used to anger me, but eventually I figured it out a couple years ago and stopped listening. He's absolutely being disingenuous but he's mostly trying to capture an audience through the shock jock stuff and it works. Its easy. But definitely not worth the time listening too.
