IMO, that one decision has improved the quality of programming by not 100% but 110%!!!

How good is that? 8-)

The champ segments were money. Solid radio there . Sort of like bitching about cyclists and bike lanes and Mayor Moonbeam. Where is John the Beast Conners when you need him ? Him and Cybul were the toast of the town back in the day.
Solid poster that guy was

As soon as Dan Patrick comes on I tune in permanently to 650 until the Dan Patrick show ends

I don’t like Botchford... but who do you consider a good read in Wetcouver? For Canucks that is..,

Isn't The Athletic a subscription service? Who's going to pay to read him?

#1. A tie between Strangelove, HW, Blob, RD, DHA
#2. For me, the only decent local media is the Kurtenbloggers. I know others don't agree, but I find them funny, they're real Vancouverites, and they actually try to expand coverage of the technical side of the game.

I kinda like Satiar, but he's such a hockey nerd I have a hard time listening for too long.

I don’t hate the Kurtenbloggers, but they haven’t grown in me either. I like Sat though.

I Mac is just a pouch licker imho. Eddie Willes isn’t bad.

I liked Sat better when he was on the old official station, in the morning disagreeing with just about everything Pratt said along with that Karen.
Radio fights are awesome. It's live, shit can't be taken back.
Finding 650 a little too generic. Guess it's a "nice" place to work.
