If you've been paying attention, Bubba's got a new Friday deal with Tim that he can't talk about yet. Before today the only other clue we had about it is the AM terrestrial show won't be able to go late past 10:30AM. This has sparked all kinds of speculation about the Friday Bubba Sirius show being moved to an earlier timeslot to something like 10AM, 10:30AM, or 11AM. It could never be earlier than that because of their Cox deal but at least it would be live content for Friday mornings. A 10:30AM timeslot means we'd have Bubba right after Mastertape / his terrestrial show.

Keep in mind that this is all rumor & speculation.

Today's hint was we are scheduled for the 11th but we need to wait till Howard announces it next week. The next Friday the 11th is April 11th which is right around the corner. The next Friday the 11th isn't until July. There's no way they'd be all excited about a July deal. it's gotta be April.

Other news about Fridays, a week ago Jay Thomas announced on his show that he was the new Howard 101 Friday AM guy. I have not been able to confirm this but it's possible we'll have Jay at 6AM & then Bubba right afterwards.

if I hear anything else, you'll all be the first ones to hear about it

Thanks!

:rock: Sweeeeeeeeeeeet

ok.

I missed Jay the first time around.

thanks Mutt!! you're a treasure trove of great info.

very cool

Hope this is true.

ok.

I missed Jay the first time around.

You'll never complain about too many commercials on Stern again after hearing Jay Thomas. 3 or 4 breaks an hour.

man just leave fridays alone MTT is just wonderful

I am not a Jay Thomas or Bubba Fan. Too bad.

Jay Thomas :rolleyes:

Jay said last week on his show that it starts on the 11th also

Thanks for the scoop Mutt.

Jay Thomas plus Bubba.

Not my top choices but at least Tim has FINALLY done something

man just leave fridays alone MTT is just wonderful


dip this quote in gold and pass it around for all to see.

bubba's mid day show could become a 5 day per week event, which would guarantee his continued employment at Sirius for years to come

:yawn:

Nice!! Live Friday shows, lets hope Tim doesn't fuck the west coast again!

I kinda like the Jay Thomas show on 102. That chick Jane can be kinda annoying though.

Post merger approval this could have some validity, along with Thomas' show after Bubba's? I would think Sirius Stars channel would be dissolved.

A woman on a radio show annoying??

:(

thanks, Mutt. It would be nice if they started putting some focus on live programming on Fridays.

man just leave fridays alone MTT is just wonderful :spit: :funny:

Either show would be cool. Both would be awesome.

Thanks for the heads up MUTT.

Jay live at 6 is a great idea.

If Bubba's show is moved to 11 that's complete bullshit. We rather have a live afternoon drive time show than a live one from 11-3 the worst hours of the day.

man just leave fridays alone MTT is just wonderful

The way I read it is MTT would still be on 100 and the other shows on 101 . I will be listening to MTT during bubba .

Give Evil Dave a shot on Friday's.

I guess this would be good news if I wanted Bubba live on Fridays.

my only wish would be for Howard & co. to get back to doing friday's, short of that I don't care who they put in his place.

hire phil hendrie

man just leave fridays alone MTT is just wonderful

mastertape will still be there

Jay 7-11
Bubba 11-3
Bubba Replay 3-7

That would make sense IMO

Jay 7-11
Bubba 11-3
Bubba Replay 3-7

That would make sense IMO

This would make more sense to me --

HOWARD LIVE!

Thanks for the update Mutt, although the news is extremely disappointing.

Guess I'll be turning my radio off on Fridays.

I agree that we need some live content, but seriously? Not a fan of Bubba at all.

Thanks for that Mutt! :)

Jay 7-11
Bubba 11-3
Bubba Replay 3-7

That would make sense IMO

that's basically what it is except the day starts at 6AM

Jay does a three-hour show on Sirius Stars; I guess he would do 6-9, then two hours of other programming until Bubba is able to sign on.

It works for Bubba; he gets his ass out the door early on Friday.

just in time for our Summer Time Friday beach listening :bigup:

They were created by man they can be solved by man

Jay 7-11
Bubba 11-3
Bubba Replay 3-7

That would make sense IMO


that is what i think it is...unless sirius is going to simulcast bubba's AM show



is jay thomas being permanent on 101 official?? did howard announce it?

I would totally listen to MTT then Bubba right after, I like this rumor, it leaves my afternoon open with no commitment.

I hope it goes through nothing would be better than a live show on Friday.

Bubba woulde be great friday mornings but shit man hes gotta be getting burned out soon here eh.. hopefully sirius mans up and gives him some more $$$ so he can leave his cox deal.. how long was it for anyway???

dip this quote in gold and pass it around for all to see.

:rolleyes:

Thanks Mutt you da man

I kinda like the Jay Thomas show on 102. That chick Jane can be kinda annoying though.

Dont worry she (and Jay) will both be completely drowned out by Shuli the hack. :rolleyes:

thanks mutt great info

that is what i think it is...unless sirius is going to simulcast bubba's AM show
That would never happen. Howard will never carry a censored FM show on his channels. And it wouldn't make sense to only have the FM show on Sirius one day a week. I don't know where people are getting the idea of a simulcast from.

:) YAY

Sirius has loads of simulcasted terrestrial radio on thier channels. All of the live sports, Nascar and most of the talk channels are from AM/FM radio. Do you really think Howard cares enough to give a shit where the material comes from as long as it doesnt cut into his "budget"?




Welcome to the "revolution".

I know, I listen to Mike Malloy and other syndicated shows on Sirius Left. I think syndicating Bubba's FM show on another channel would've been a great idea. But if Mel had it his way, there wouldn't be any sharing of content. They took Stephanie Miller off of 146 even if she was very popular and replaced her with the very boring Mark Thompson.

I'm all for putting on good terrestrial programming on Sirius and I think XM had the right idea when they have put on hosts on their "Extreme XM" channel like they did with Bubba in the past. But I think Howard's pride will not allow him to put a terrestrial show on his channels. And Sirius probably resents the fact Bubba has a morning show so I see that as another thing that gets in the way of a simulcast.

Great news!!

Amazing what happens when Bubba gets huge ratings in Tampa (AM drive) and Howard is in pre-retirement.

Sponge is a worker.

Is Mark Thompson the guy who sits around all day and laments how hard it is to be black in America? It might be the worst show on Sirius that doesnt involve Interns or Shuli. There was a pretty big revolt from the fans when they pulled Stephanie Miller and shes still on most days.

That's him. Only one hour of Stephanie Miller is on though. I wish they could carry her show live instead of Alex Bennett. I may get the Stephcast but I hardly have time to listen to anything else between the two Bubba shows and Howard.

Thanks for the heads up. Mastertape Theater unbearable -- Bubba too filthy constantly and uninteresting -- so, Fridays have been out of the question. But with Jay Thomas, will definitely tune in. He's great!! Thanks again.

will be listening to MTT regardeless.

can't wait till people start complaining about this :btu:

What doesn't make sense is Jay Thomas is on the west coast so he's going to have to get up at 3:00 or 4:00 AM?!?! Maybe it's 7:00 AM PDT, 10:00 AM EDT and Bubba simulcast?

And what about Miserable Men? I guess they get the shaft, unless they get 4 hours on Sundays...damn merger needs to happen now...

He got up that early to do the last show on 101. And it's only one day a week.

Get out the melatonin. That messes with any appearances he or any of his sidekicks may have on weekends....

He was in NYC for that other morning show on 101.

Will this conflict with his Tampa FM radio gig?

Jay was good except the technical difficulties for the 1st 35 minutes. Doesn't anyone else hear the echo and reverb and the repeat???? SCOOOOOTTTTTTTT :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

That's Great to move up Bubba!!!! :) :) :) :)
