Shake voice Cobra

I gotta think even if the same money Sirois would take the position. It kinda fits his lifestyle it sounds like.

Plus its not gonna hamper him being the "next guy up".

2004 Danny was great.

Orphanage Danny and Ticket song Danny were pretty dam good. Outside of that, he didn't bring a ton. I'll miss funny Danny, but those appearances have been few and far between recently.

Any idea what Balis makes as I'm listening to him on the app?

Corby says he's had a few weeks to come to grips with this...so I'll assume this all tracks on the timeline with Jake's contract negotiations? Danny emphasized many times that he was tired of being undervalued

Think Bob agrees "this is a weird adulthood job"?

This whole discussion between Corby and Danny is weird. Just seems to show how out of touch and sheltered they've been in their jobs.

They're radio hosts. Sure, lots of people enjoy them but at the end of the day they're radio hosts.

---

It's part of their "is" becoming part of their "was" after a couple of decades working together almost every day. It's sad for many listeners for the same reason.

If sirois leaves I will never forgive cumulus!

So I think basically it was him feeling like he should be paid like a host for what he contributed but Cumulus insisted on paying him like a producer.

"Danny in Lake Highlands" got much more out of this than he could have ever imagined. Talented musician who delivers pizza, to producer of a major market drive time show. As Greggo would say, he contributed, but I never thought of him as host material. Hope his other plans work out, and he doesn't regret this down the road.

After Greggo left, Corby and Dan dismissed Rhynes and jumped all over him pretty frequently. I think that was a big part of his give up.

Flake boy just rejoined Cumulous at KSCS, maybe they could get him as Hardline producer and him and Dan could fight during WTDS. I miss those fights.

Kirby would s himself if we had two ags on the hardline. Let's do it.

I liked Gribble when he was on the Ticket, but aside from maybe Scoops Callahan, I haven't missed him in the slightest.

I used to be a big P1 when I lived in Dallas and first met Danny in 2003 at the original Barley House and have had countless encounters with him at bars or at shows over the years and have always liked him. Big fan of many of his musical projects as well. I lurk this thread from time to time and am always surprised by the amount of dislike I see for him.

I never give my opinion because it's worthless anyway and I haven't listened to the Ticket much in the past 5-7 years or so and in just reading it seems like he's not what he once was.

I will say I was shocked when I heard this news today from several regular listener friends of mine. Then I saw this and cracked up. He went from pizza delivery guy to landing a small gig at the Ticket which turned into something big over a long period of time and he goes out with this. It's just too perfect:

"There is a lot of talent up here. There is a *ton* of talent at this radio station. But Cumulus has been getting a large pizza for a medium price for a long time & I guess I just don't want to be free pizza anymore." - @badkaratemovie

And I guess it may have been mentioned on air today it sounds like but I saw this earlier today as well. Always loved the Hammer. Hope he gets better:

I thought Gribble was great as a producer. The dude is a tireless grinder in that regard, complete opposite of Danny. And with ideas like Scoops and the Gabby Urinator, he was basically willing to sacrifice himself for content. But that said, he was also a pretty weird dude so frequently cringy on air.

IMO Danny's legacy is basically a lazy producer and too frequently a dark cloud on air, with occasional moments of one-liner gold or quality original songs. Definitely had his moments where he shined, but also left you wondering what he did to help the show outside of 3-7. Format basically never changed, and when he gets an opportunity with PigPen, he basically turned it into a "what's on Mike's mind?" type mail in.

I went from listening to the Hardline every day to barely tuning in to it for the last 6 months. Don't think I am the only one.
I understand the need to progress forward in your career, but he is not cut out to be a host.
Don't think Corby is either, but that ship is long gone.

Aside from Sorta, *******s of Soul, Sparrows, etc, Danny's solo album "Too Much Living" has always been a great one imo. And in particular this song. I remember vividly when he found his "country" voice and this came out. Give it a listen if you haven't before:

I can't take it seriously. I keep waiting for a punchline.

Not one mention of metal bats
