My favorite segments were Lance's characters:
Tony the Hatchet man Valentine
SEC Guy
Rappin' Dad
______ on a Mobile (RC, Mack Brown, Milo)
John and Lance are the only duo that can come close to what The Ticket puts out. I hate Dallas and everything it stands for, but their sports radio is very good.
Porkchop Express- That call was me and my buddies! This is crazy and I can't believe somebody remembers, or even heard the call. That Phone call to Charlie Palillo was after a Rockets/Celtics game, and we did the call in to Charlie as a total joke. We were still in HS, and had to be around 93 or 94? If I remember correctly, we were laughing at all the dumb trade calls, so we decided to make one ourselves to get Charlies reaction. I think we also made a comment about Hakeem playing the Clarinet, as a dumb inside joke to our friend who played the clarinet. What a blast from the past your post was!The Porkchop Express said:
Hearing John and Lance together is like going home again. So great together.
My parents sat next to Rich Lord and his wife at a concert a few months ago with only a vague idea who he was. They said he told them he was forced to retire but had no regrets, but absolutely hated working with Josh Innes, which isn't very surprising.
I've said it before, but nothing tops the time I had the radio on and a guy called Charlie Palillo wanting to trade Hakeem straight up for Dino Radja and Charlie hanging up on him and saying, "Everyone gets an opinion, but I can't condone idiots."

Admittedly, yes. Not quite sure what accent my buddy, doing the talking, was trying to pull off. I think he was making something goofy up on the fly.

Was he copying the Jerky Boys?
Thanks, that was a good read (which I had saved and finally remembered). Good stuff.MAROON said:he was great.maroon barchetta said:
I tuned in to hear Joel Buschbaum as often as possible. That guy was amazing.
good article about him
https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/raiders/the-draft-business-spawned-an-early-unforgettable-character-2013265/
I figured he was like a syndicated expert or something; didn't know his relationship with KTRH was special.Quote:
Between his work with PFW and his highly anticipated radio work with KMOX in St. Louis and KTRH in Houston, Buchsbaum planted the seed for what we see today.
His picture in that article is pretty much exactly as I would have pictured him.Quote:
Not many people actually knew what Buchsbaum looked like, and only a handful of people ever saw the inside of his apartment, which was so messy and disorganized his mother refused to come visit.
I remember Buck the Wonder Dog well. And Brooks. Joel Buchsbaum on KTRH is one of those wonderful "this could have only happened in Houston in that specific moment" things.Microwave Onions said:

Back when John Lopez and Nick had the morning show, it was pretty good, IMO. Coupled with Jim Mudd and it was the best morning sports show in Houston, IMO. John was like the childish adult and Nick was the stats guy who tried to bring structure. They seemed to have a pretty good rapport with each other and found a good balance for the show. But yeah, the race **** got old, quickly.AustinCountyAg said:
Forget about sissy Nick being on 610 back in the day. He was/is terrible. He's white guy who wishes he was black and wishes he was a Stephen a smith copycat. Brutal listening to home. That dude was a hard core race baiter.
