View Full Version : Bubba The Love Sponge?
cheesecake 09-12-2005, 07:04 PM I was just listening to Friday's show, where Howard mentions that Bubba The Love Sponge will be on SIRIUS w/ Howard. He also mentioned that we'll be surprised at some of the other "talent" that he has been contacting...
Who do you think he's refferring to? O&A? How long is their contract with XM?
It would be funny if is was like John DeBella, or Mark & Brian...
conspire 09-12-2005, 07:27 PM Def. wouldn't be O/A. They hate each other.
nicksgt 09-12-2005, 07:29 PM fuck bubba the love sponge...greg o rules :rock: :rolleyes:
chibchakan 09-12-2005, 07:44 PM I hope it's Kidd Chris & Tom Leykis.
Miller 09-12-2005, 07:47 PM Kidd Chris is in Philly now, right? Wouldn't one assume he's signed a new contract?
sparty89 09-12-2005, 07:53 PM Kidd Chris is in Philly now, right? Wouldn't one assume he's signed a new contract?
Kid Chris was on the show recently, and they joked around that when he gets kicked off of the Philly station due to the FCC, he can join Howard at Sirius.
Is Hendry on Sirius or XM yet?
jms397 09-12-2005, 07:58 PM Hendrie, Kidd Chris, and Leykis seem like reasonable candidates after they fulfill their current contracts.
Leykis is even represented by Don Buchwald.
JoeyBoots 09-12-2005, 08:06 PM i'd love to see leykis come on board.......back when he was on for a short time in the nyc market a couple years ago i'd listen to his show and call in to it a few times.......i liked it and all the constant women bashing.....good times. :hw:

I predict the FCC (now controlled by the religious right) will force all of them to end up @ Sirius.
Tom from T.O. 09-12-2005, 08:16 PM i'd love to see leykis come on board.......back when he was on for a short time in the nyc market a couple years ago i'd listen to his show and call in to it a few times.......i liked it and all the constant women bashing.....good times. :hw:
Out of all the clones they had at WBUF Buffalo, Leykis is the only one I could listen to, his woman bashing is a one trick pony but it is funny, I can listen to him without switching stations after 5 minutes....
ChronoSkooma17 09-12-2005, 08:18 PM Leykis says he will sign to whatever company gives him the best offer and I think he makes around 10 million per year right now. He gives credit to Howard for revolutionizing talk radio. I think he'd be a great addition to Sirius.
Hendrie is already on XM and it doesn't seem like he gets huge ratings. Bubba the loves Sponge had a big audience in the south and was #1 in males 18-34. I'd love to see Howard put Imus and Mancow on one of his channels just so he can fuck with them.
nicksgt 09-12-2005, 09:42 PM no love for greg o? :rolleyes:
maddog76 09-12-2005, 09:51 PM i'd love to see leykis come on board.......back when he was on for a short time in the nyc market a couple years ago i'd listen to his show and call in to it a few times.......i liked it and all the constant women bashing.....good times. :hw:
Just reply those shows now. You wont notice a difference. His show never changes. Every day its the same.
And now way he makes 10 mill. he isnt even on a station here in SF. Unless KLSX pays him 10 mill. Back in '95 a sales guy told me he was makin 300,000.
Jakyll 09-12-2005, 09:55 PM Phil Hendrie might be an option now that Howard is talking him up so much, but he can be heard on XM 152 every day, so I don't know.
O&A Never. Never ever in a million years. Willing to bet $100 real USD on it.

Sirius could be one big haven of smut! Then all the government has to do is shoot down those satellites.
Tom Leykis? How many times can you listen to "How you doin' Tom?"... "Do you care"? and callers asking to be blown up? Ha ha ha! Ho ho ho! Zzzzzzzzzzzz
SirGaryColeman 09-12-2005, 10:54 PM Out of all the clones they had at WBUF Buffalo, Leykis is the only one I could listen to, his woman bashing is a one trick pony but it is funny, I can listen to him without switching stations after 5 minutes....
He's not horrible and I can see how people might like him, but like you said... he's a one trick pony. Talks about the same shit all day long, so I tend not to listen to him.

Take me out old school Tom
Take me out Kobe style Tom
I used to listen to his show in 98 - 99 and it was good. I heard it again when I was in LA this summer and I think he ran out of things to talk about and the quality of his callers dropped.
Still, if he gets a Siruis deal, thats more money for Buchwald and probably Howard.

Tom Leykis is the 2nd best thing on KLSX. Way better than the god awful Frosty, Heidi, and Frank show.
dalliedoolie 09-13-2005, 04:09 AM Personally, I can't see hendrie as being very fit for satellite exclusivity; a lot of the show (my favorite parts at least) depends on random idiots hearing the show as they flip through the channels. I think a lot of this would go away if he could only be heard on satellite.
slitlobes 09-13-2005, 07:02 AM Howard Just Confirmed That
Bubba will be a guest on Wednesday Show!
He is gonna be sworn into the gang Mafia Style!
ChronoSkooma17 09-13-2005, 07:06 AM I can't wait for Sal to go off on Bubba
Pussah 09-13-2005, 07:13 AM Tom Leykis is goddawful. There is better chance of Howard being elected president running as a republican than O&A showing up on anything related to Howard. Does he hate them the most because they are the most "successful clones" of his.
herkyjerkyben 09-13-2005, 07:34 AM I used to listen to him a few years back
i didn't think he was that funny. Is old man partner Ned was alright
cheesecake 09-13-2005, 08:21 AM I can't wait for Sal to go off on Bubba
Oh shit! That is going to be funny!
Sal should calm down though... It wasn't too long ago, that Gary wanted to beat the shit out of him... (He probably still does, sometimes)...

I think he hates them the most because they (one of them, I don't know which) appeared on his show, and claimed to be huge fans. Then they get a job on WNEW, which was/is owned by Howard's company, and they started talking alot of shit about him. I think that Howard realized that if he kept talking about them, he was just 'fanning the flames.'

Anthony appeared on his show and Howard said he was funny until he said he was working with another dj named Opie in massachussetts.
I was a listener since after like 6 months after they debuted in NY. They always praised Howard and gave him credit for the type of radio. Howard flipped out on them and had them bound and gagged after they announced that one of Howard's daughters was escorted out of Z100's Jingle Ball throwing up after she was heavily drinking and taking drugs. This was the night before Howard announced his new contract with Infinity. After that all hell broke loose. According to them Howard had Tom tell bands like Staind, Aerosmith, etc that they could not go to WNEW or there music would not be played on Krock nor would they ever be part of an Krock event.
The first time I ever heard Howard mention them by name (not clones) was after they were fired.
