The transition from Greyhound bus as punishment to Greyhound now sponsoring it is a bit of a wet fart

That's just a good salesman seeing an opportunity.
It's weird. Riding your bus is a punishment that an entire radio station is trying to avoid, and I don't think Greyhound is going to be cast in a positive light, but yeah let's sponsor it.bthotugigem05 said:

No one rides Greyhound because they have other options. You might as well jump on board the joke.CampingAg said:It's weird.

Seriously, it is the long distance travel mode of last resort. This is not a secret. Embrace the publicity.

While it was strong I don't think it was as good as In Da Club from a few years ago.
Great work by Jub and the gang though. It's always a delight this time of year when the wintry mix hits so a Michael Irvin School Closing mix hits as well.
Can anyone post the In Da Club one? That might be a top 3 8:40 bit of all time in my opinion.
Corby and Cowlishaw on the Pigskin Roundtable or whatever the hell they call it here in a few minutes.
If there's a loved one you've been meaning to reach out to those two segments will be a wonderful opportunity to do so.

I just heard the Playmaker "closed" song from yesterday. Wow….that was awesome.
Who else really enjoyed Cowlishaw on Pigskin Panel this morning?
Hope I didn't just jump headfirst into a bear trap there.
Nope, you are all good:The Pilot said:

Update: We heard from our buddy @TimCowlishaw. Alive and well. Smartphone Alarm mishap (hey, guys). Glad to hear.

What happened?
Hi, Miss Hap.
He didn't show up. Looks like he got to sleep in and the rest of us didn't have to listen to him. WIN WINdave94 said:

How many Ticket degenerates will be at the Greyhound station in 4 hours to send off Corby?
Not me. He should suffer. P1 fanboys sending him off are weird AF to me.
the_batman26: I guess yall need this, its something to take pride in. At least the Feds trusted us with the Space Center; and I seem to recall the Feds not having the best time in Dallas.
The boys came to send me off. @GreatDonovan @NotJackKemp #BusBuddies pic.twitter.com/CjopQTrzzY

Did I forget what he looks like or is Jake unhealthy? I didn't even recognize him. Maybe no beard + beanie. Idk.

What a beating.
Edit: Also a bus tracker link as well - https://bustracker.greyhound.com/routes/1415/I/Dallas_TX-Phoenix_AZ/GLI_1415/02-03-2023
This is a great damn bit. Can't wait to hear his beaten down ass tomorrow on all the shows
Not sure he'll be beaten down

"I got up in the middle of the night to go to a bus station and see a radio host ride a bus what am I doing with my life"
Listened to Corby's 8:15 segment and he sounded so beat down. I thought for a second he was doing a bit but I think it's really just him.
I think that trip would be kind of fun if forced to do it.
Every host up there would find some enjoyment except for Corby. So glad he's the one that lost.

it looks absolutely miserable stopping every hour. I think the longest stretch without a stop is 3 hours. That would suck throughout the night.Chewy said:

I think if you realize it's a Greyhound and that's what they do you get over it pretty quick.
It's not like he's in a rush to get to Phoenix. It's not the ideal way to travel for most of us but for a ~22 hour bit that's part of your job I think most people would just accept the beating and have some fun.
If 22 hours on a Greyhound is completely miserable you're living a pretty damn good life. Suck it up and have some fun.
Edit - It's 22 hours and not 10. I still believe it's not all that bad in the grand scheme and a little fun can be had.

I think it's been perfect so far, especially his whisper voice while sitting next to random P1s who bought tickets and he had to sit next to.
It's 22 hours
I do think his trip is gonna take a turn for the worse when Ben and Cletus get off in El Paso.
He'll be tired and lonely.
It'll make for great radio.

I'm annoyed that the P1 had to screw this up. On a full bus, we needed Corby having to sit next to a "bus person"Chewy said:

The issue is going to 22 hours in that chair. That's not going to be good on his middle aged body. I'm 42 and I would be a mess. I'm 6'1" though. Is he short? Would help but only a little.
But then I've never been able to sleep in a chair of any kind. Not even as a teenager. Maybe he can.

At the same time though at least the P1 gave him some insulation to be able to speak more freely.dave94 said:I'm annoyed that the P1 had to screw this up. On a full bus, we needed Corby having to sit next to a "bus person"Chewy said:

His whisper pterodactyl laugh was great.
We stopped in Pecos, and this is their incredibly sad heat lamp food selection. We passed. P1s Ben and Cleatus decided to eat air. pic.twitter.com/B0fW5jpSwu

For sure. It would be a bit of an adventure. Plus you've got access to any movies, tv shows, or books you want. The hardest part would be the sleeping.Chewy said:

That was my point. the longest stretch is 3 hours. It's easier to sleep when the bus is going at a constant speed than stopping and starting. And loading and unloading passengers.double aught said:For sure. It would be a bit of an adventure. Plus you've got access to any movies, tv shows, or books you want.
