Who's the right wing nut sitting in for Bernie Ward tonight?
He keeps saying Michael Moore, when he means corporate puppet Patrick Moore.

1. I feel your pain...

4. Welcome to the Mike Webb show!
We trade off between listening to Mike Webb (thirty miles away in downtown Seattle,) and Bernie Ward.

He's the greatest. It's a long wait to talk if you call him to comment about what's being discussed that evening, but we're diehard fans.

If you're listening to Mike's intros (he changes 'em a lot,) and you hear a female voice say, "You could make Sean Hannity cry like a little girl," that's ME! (The first time he played it, I had to wake up DH and tell him all about it.)

7. Webb is brilliant
Edited on Thu Mar-04-04 02:25 AM by bumbler
Now has as a guest a locally well-known fundie anti-gay bigot (Mike is openly gay, a fact apparently unknown to the guest (Lon Mabon)), and he is stringing him along in the best Mike Malloy style!
(edit near misses and double punches on the keyboard)

8. Thanks for the website, I'm
listening now. I assume it's Mike Webb.:kick:
He's really taking some religious wingnut down the path.

9. This guy is good

Again, a new listener talking here, but so far after just a couple shows this guy is great! He's got the voice, good timing, smart, fast on his feet.. all the things for a great host.

Why the heck is this guy on in the middle of the night?!

He should be on for morning drive-time or afternoons at the least..

Lemme guess, is that a Clear Channel station and/or do they control the radio market there too?

10. If it were ClearChannel Mike would not be broadcast at any hour
KIRO is owned by Cox Communications, a relatively small player. It is Seattle's largest station, however, and Webb's show is their highest rated talk program, despite the late night (10-1) hours.

5. He's Bill Wattenburg.
Yes, he's a right wingnut, and feels he's anointed to counteract the liberal voices on KGO.
He is a scientist and is responsible for many of our weapons of mass destruction.
:eyes: He's also a prick.

6. You've got that right.
Bernie Ward fittingly refers to him as Dr. Strangelove
