If 960 decided to move on from Boomer and Pinder, for whatever reason, I hope they would start a podcast. They would have no problem with sponsorship, I assume, and it would be entertaining listening to an uncut version of their show. Maybe the could entice Rhett to come back. No more 4am wake-up’s.

What a drive in today. 20 minutes discussing how to pronounce the Tennessee Titans and Peyton Manning.

Very weird. Soon after the new show started, Boomer went on vacation for like 2 weeks. Then Rhett left. Then there was the covid situation last week. Seems like there hasn't even been a single uninterrupted week.

Boomer/Pinder/Steinberg carry the station. To lose any of them is insane.

I had to turn it off. This station, Like most Sportsnet entities, seems to be dying a slow death.
Boomer , Pinder , Steinberg are core pieces that bring any kind of quality to the station. Precina(sp) I felt was very good in her fill in last week.

It’s gotta be board op related. Riley left, Dumas got COVID. LoGo was filling in yesterday.
The station needs someone new running to board.

This is just garbage. Best flames team in 20 years and the local sports station is a hot mess.
Maybe they shouldn't have fired everyone

I've grown apart from the radio. Steinberg is great, but that's all they have anymore. Boomer is a great host, but he's not a real sports guy like Pat is.
Podcasts is the way to go. Lots of Flames content out there, but also league-wide stuff.

Can you recommend a good podcast with lots of Flames content?

Today was one of the rare days I'm driving into work, and was looking forward to listening to some good Fan960 morning radio as I drove in. The stuff they had on the radio was pretty much unlistenable to me, so I had to just switch it to FM radio for the drive. So disappointed.

I hear ya! Mine was even a step worse. I switched to NHL on Sirius, and they had CANUCKS talk. Blech...
