Very interesting. MattJ, I don't always agree with your takes, but I do enjoy the show these days. You work hard and it's a well deserved opportunity. Congratulations. Represent Htown proudly, homeskillet.
I'm late to the party. Congrats matt! Definately will record and archive this one, since it's history! Good luck...Be one with epicness!
Whitlock sucks because all he does is try to say things that people wouldn't expect him, as a black man, to say. Jay Mohr is alright, but spends too much time trash talking and trying to one-up clones. Sklar Bros are good on cheap seats, but lack the sports knowledge necessary to carry a 3 hour program. Petros & Money are the best subs, in my opinion, but I swear if I had to be in the same room as Petros for more than an hour, I'd devise a way to kill him. The guy cannot NOT scream. How f'ing annoying is that?
Why should he have someone do a Rome impersonation? This is Matt's big break. He should stick to what he does best is talk sports with a passion, not bring gimmicks to the show. Rome had some guys filling in from some other city filling in for him a few weeks ago and they were horrible. They kept playing sound effects and were obnoxious. I'd be willing to bet they are never asked to host again.
once again...so awesome that you get to do this, matt. one piece of advice...you might not want to talk over your Jungle callers the way that you do local callers when you disagree with them. now, please feel free to come by my office and tell me how to do my job
A friend of mine just emailed a bunch of us with this news. He suggested I should call in and "annoy the nation."
Agreed, congratulations. You have a point, but....... seriously, we need Adam Clanton on that show with a Jim Rome impersonation. It's hilarious. Just once though..... and no longer than 5 minutes. Does that make you feel better about it? He wouldn't do it the entire show. Just 5 mins of hilarity.
That's awesome that Rich isn't in, because you wouldn't have gotten an invite back if a national audience had to listen to that guy. Good luck! Can you give us any background on how you got this opportunity?
It's always rough for a 1st time guest host in the Jungle. There are alot of Houston callers and emailers that get in regularly, so now is the time for them to step their games up and support Matt. Maybe some of the stable callers like Rachel will get in. If I had to order the guest hosts, it would be Slam man, Sklars, then P&M. I heard Whitlock is no longer invited to host the show. Skip Bayless was usually funny too for stiring up s***.
Yesss I will have my iphone on, and listening. Cant wait. If i happen to some how miss it, how can I download the show and listen later? Thanks, and i'll hang up.
Not happening. FFB calls 1-800-636-8686. (J-stew picks up) J-stew: what's your take? FFB: Hi, this is Jim from Houston. I want to be an ass and annoy the nation. People will love it. J-stew: ... (J-mf-stew hangs up the phone and pounds another doughnut) end scene. It's not that funny. Doing this off the phone inthe middle of the night. Is stew on vacation too?
bumping... so it doesn't get lost! Sadly I have a client meeting that starts the same time as the Rome show but I will try to listen to at least some of the show.
"Whether you're white, you're black, you're Asian, you're Hispanic, or you're an Aggie, sit back and enjoy the show." YES. Come on, mattj, SPLASH!
