Good.

It works.

They REALLY need someone to do the 9 o'clock hour as well.

Listened this morning, and though a little rusty, it still works - felt comfortable, and instantly better. If they could just move out Nault, or at least move him off that terrible tin-can-and-string connection he uses, it would be great. I'm assuming now Pinder heads back to afternoons when returning from vacation?

Yep, thought the addition of Rhett and Adnan Virk was great. Comfortable and better are definitely the words that best describe this mornings show!

Sounds like the morning show is back to being Boomer/Warrener/Pinder/Jay for the foreseeable future, with Nault/Klein/Steinberg on afternoons. This is the ideal setup to me and suits the focus of each show better, all personality/banter guys on the Morning Show, all more sportsy/no-personality guys on the afternoon show.

Now just keep it that way, or at the very least, never put Nault on the morning show again.

I’m sure that all sports radio was creamed in ratings around the world. It makes sense to load up with the heavy hitters to try to recapture and keep listeners.

I just hope they don't bring Brent Khrahn back. The most interesting thing he ever said on air was talking about his aquarium. And his laugh is annoying.

Imagine Boomer/Rhett/Krahn and Jay.

That would be amazing.

Do we have our artist for the playoffs?

I thought it was Def Leppard from the Winnipeg series but I can also listen to Roxette again.

but Boomer Warrener and Pinder are great together. Plus you said you wanted someone who can do the 9 o'clock hour, that would be Pinder.

Morning show got better which I assume is always the goal when it comes to radio.

Afternoon show won't be as good as Pinder and Steinberg seemed to have developed some good chemistry. Hopefully Steinberg and Klein can keep Nault's involvement to a minimum going forward.

I am glad Rhett is back but I think moving Pinder back to the mornings was a mistake. I always thought they moved him back to mornings due to Covid and it being easier to work from home with a young family.

I was not a fan of Steinberg when he was paired with Kerr but I do like him and Pinder as a combo.

I'll never understand why all morning shows are essentially a string of fart jokes. Who wants to listen to that while getting ready/driving in to work? (at least, in the before times)

Please tell me this isn’t true. I stopped listening to the morning show because of Nault. Now I’ll have to stop listening to the afternoon show if this is the case. I’d rather listen to FM stations then to be subjected to Nault’s moronic takes and overall annoying attitude. Kirsch could honestly find a free, drunk, sports bar doofus to replace him and there’d be no difference.

I could be wrong, but I think he took a role with the Flames in player development? Not sure why he came back though, maybe it's just temporary

Seems the afternoon show is Steinberg, Nault and Klein for the foreseeable future.

Well it looks like I won't be listening to that show for the foreseeable future. Nault and Klein are grating and Pat "Who needs leg day" Steinberg who has his moments can't save the other two.
