    I would have to agree with some of the others, I used to like freewheelin but anymore they have dumb topics all the time....i like chris t. but meredith is really rude to callers.

    My favorites:
    1) Lockridge Report (most useful info of any of them)
    2) Bozo (have listened since i was a kid)
    3) Jonesey (thats a cool concept like a big "CB" radio show)

    Don't listen to Nemo, BUT on weekends when Marcia and Truckin Tim are on i try not to miss it......love those two!

    And as far as Bozo goes, ever since he got Richie as a Producer they just crack me up.......All his New Jersey B.S. and the Nancy Pelosi song.....just hilarious!!!

    I listen to the channel.


    The lockridge report is OK most of the time. I can do with less Tim Brady, but over all the show he does is listen able.


    Landline now is good. I try to tune that in.


    As far as KR is concerned. I could do with out him.
    I have listened to the show. When I have done so, I often find myself going “what did you just say” more times than I can count. I think he is doing a great disservice to the people that take a lot of his advice. He is supposed to be a Financial planner, yet does not understand the basics of a 125 plan or what is required to have an HSA. I was listening one time and he was trying to explain tire aspect ratios. He was so wrong it was funny, well not really. Every time I have listened, I hear a lot of misinformation. I just can not support that.


    Freewheelin. I do listen. More than I care to. I am just too lazy to change the channel.
    They seem to be legends in their own minds. I have noted that when it is only one of them on the show, it seems to be a better show. Both seem to get very rude and condescending. A lot of what they call humor is just not funny and always at the expense of others. It also seems the have a favorite caller list.


    When I can I like listening to Jonesy. The show has some great segments and some real characters.
    Some people may not grasp the free form concept. Then at times it can be a hard listen.

    I only recently got into this channel. I've never been a fan of Bozo and will only listen to him for a few minutes, hell I can only take his son's show in short doses as well, it get's way too inside at times. Otherwise, I don't mind Freewheelin' in short doses and Lockridge is pretty good. I've listend to bit of Nemo, he' son the same time as O&A so I usually listen to them, then flip around on commercial breaks.

    I have attempted to listen to the channel maybe 3x and so far all 3 of those times it wasn't even broadcasting. I will stick to my country stations and comedy.

    Good to have my opinion of Freewheelin' validated. I really dislike a lot of Meridith's politics and condescending attitude, but her voice... it's like a hot chocolate sundae to me. Chris is pretty good on the days Meridith is away and most days their topics are ridiculous. I hope the powers that be can come up with something better than running them twice a day.

    I like Dave Nemo, Evin Lockridge and Landline. Rutheford is like a wreck - you don't want to look but you can't help it. :biggrin_25520: Sometimes he has some good "stuff" on though.
