The Lockridge Report is my favorite and I guess Kevin Rutherford would come in a distant 2nd. I just turn off the radio when Chris and Meredith comes on. Sometime I will listen to Dave Nemo, but not very often. Bozo is just like myself, he is getting old and tells the same worn out stories all the time.

I miss The Loading Dock with Mark Willis. It was better than Dave Nemo IMO.

Anybody ever listen to "Coast to Coast" with George Norey? Always came on late at night. Kind of a sci-fi talk show. My wife loved it! They talked about Ufo's and conspiracies etc... Also the Ron and Fez show. It was like station 202. I used to love listening to the different talk show because it really made time fly by.
x#1 Thanks this. -
Lockridge Report, when I remember to turn it on is about the only program I can handle on Roaddog. Occasionally I'll listen to Chris T and Meredith and call in, but god they are beyond stupid. I've become addicted to CNBC, I start my day listening to Opie and Anthony, then usually alternate between music and CNBC the rest of the day.

Good ol' Morton Downey!!! -
I like Nemo, Kevin, and Evan.
I cannot listen to the others. I cannot spare the brain cells they will burn up. -
I'm surprised no one's mentioned Steve Sommers on WLW 700 out of Cinncinnati and 152 on XM in the overnight hours. My opinion is he's the best. Lots of trucking related information, many, many repeat callers that are characters, to say the least. As for that show on road dog at the same time, well, does CB channel 19 mean anything? LOL

Hi all,
I switch to Sirius 147 after Stern. Meredith and Chris, junk. Not informative. Lockridge, now there is someone to listen to. Two hours is not enough. That is one of the most informative programs on that channel. I don't know why he doesn't garnish more time. Very informative even if the topic does not cover your segment of the industry. It benefits all.
The bozo? Please. He seems to be (in his mind) the know all, end all, be all person in the trucking world. Garbage. As others have said, a caller who disagrees or has a rational thought, are immediately cut off or lampooned. Those that agree or talk about frivolous topics are on for quite some time. It makes me cringe to hear some of those callers. As if we didn't have a bad enough image with the public already. Hiiiiiii daddy comes to mind. God forbid if you bring up Unions. Yet OOIDA is talked about at length. OOIDA seeks to represent O/O and there is nothing wrong with that. The Teamsters seek to represent company drivers. I think both do a realtively good job. Now when Truckin Tim fills in, I will be there if I can. Superb.
Jonesey, never really cared for his style. Putting two callers on together. To me, that seemed to have had a lot of dead air and comments that benefited a few. Don't miss him in the afternoon since I only work during the day. Sorry, just not my cup of tea.
Nemo is okay but but when Truckin Tim is on, it's moves up quite a few notches. I only listen on Fridays hoping that Tim will be there. If not, oh well. Like I said Nemo is okay.
Just my opinion folks.
Drive safe -
I can take Steve Sommers in very small doses, his callers are stupider than his fathers.
