Anybody else listen to these guys in the morning? I used to catch bits and pieces of their shows, but recently they made podcasts of their shows available through iTunes and I've been hooked. Fucking hilarious. The best by far is the Drunk Day show, where Cathy and Casey get hammered on air. I haven't yet listened to the Fire-in-the-Hole show, where they shoot their intern in the bare ass with a water gun filled with hot sauce.

i've mentioned this before, but i'll say it again....P&S are horrible.

Anytime a caller calls in with an opinion on a topic that is different from theirs, they yell at them and belittle them. i can't stand that whole holier than thou act they put on.

*waits for NAT to tell me how great they are*

I have no idea who those two are, but if they are FM dj's then I am certain that there is 99.9999% chance they are morons.

Cal's just an ass, actually, because they're all really sweet guys. Apparently, one time at a Bar PnS didn't give away enough free stuff to his drunk buddies or something, so now he doesn't like them. I've been out working with each of them many times and they've always been great to anyone who comes up to say Hi. i've also been out many times, both with jocks or just as straight up MMaRmy gigs where people come up expecting the world - handfulls of free teeshirts, pens, keychains and whatever else their little drunken hearts desire. We do our best, but there's always people who don't get the DVD, the teeshirt AND the hat, or don't win the tickets at the end of the night - so they label us as assholes for just doing our jobs and making sure that our freebies stretch as far as possible.

I've never once heard them belittle anyone over having a different opinion than they do. Some people do call up and be assholes, and they will call them out on it.

Of course they're morning jocks so they're silly and goofy and they make asses of themselves - that's what they get paid for.

well, i don't listen to them anymore, but they did it almost on a routine basis. my girlfriend does still listen, and she says its getting unbearable anymore.

You said yourself that you met them once.

Clearly, which is why she still listens.

I've been working for the station since July. (Not Preston and Steve by the way. WMMR.) When I did the cally, I hadn't even met them - I worked with Y100's promotions director. They didn't pick me to be in the cally, Craig did.
When PnS moved to mmr, they brought some calendars, and the production team there was already recruiting new girls for the Bod Squad. Of the 14 of us, only 4 of us are from the calendars. That again was a decision of the promotions directors, not PnS directly. (Though they may have put in a word or two for us, but honestly, at that point I had only met them twice, and very briefly.)

I've been listening to PnS since the early 90's.

So my opinion would pretty much be the same.

It's up to everyone to decide if they want to tune in or go to the website and check them out themselves. If they want to base their opinions on the opinions of someone who met them once and had a bad experience, that's their loss.

Not everyone in the world has the same sense of humor as PnS. Fuck, look how popular Stern is, and he's an absolute tool that still thinks farts and boobies are prime comedy material.

Don't go calling me out (before I even SEE the thread, BTW) like I'm some kinda mindless twit because I like the guys. I've worked with them, and haven't once seen or heard any of the behaviors you're accusing them of. Of course I'm going to defend them, they're friends of mine!

MMR is the only station she gets on her radio on her desk. shes already said shes had to turn them off some days.

interesting considering they started the morning show in 1998.

Concerts are the worst, they're really stressfull and there's hundreds of people who come up to the tents.

Then she should get a better radio, or turn it off and quit bitchin.

Actually, Preston started way back before that, on WRDE I'm pretty sure, and it was Preston and Marilyn.
Then Preston, Marilyn and Steve.
Then Preston and Steve and whatever random girls on their way to Cathy.

Preston was the afternoon DJ on WDRE. Sarah, Spike, and Vinnie were the morning show (now THAT was a good show). They didnt want to go to Y100 when WDRE went off the air, so Preston and Marilyn got the job in 1998. Steve came on months later because he was a friend of Marilyn's.

it wasnt at a tent. they were in the same luxury box as me at one of the Y100 shows. so it had nothing to do with stress or hundreds of people. there were 10 of us in the box.

ok....soon as stern goes to sirius she's gonna get satellite. since P&S couldnt hold Sterns jock on a good day.

So they weren't working? They were trying to watch a show?

i dunno whats wrong w/ you cal, i think these guys are funny as fuck. although ive never met them personally and i never got the impression that they are dickheads to people that disagree with them, maybe i should listen more closely. to each his own i guess, but i think this show is funny as hell.

and nat, your boy matt played "black red yellow" for me on the my birthday a couple of fridays ago.

Sweet. I don't really get to hear 10club often unless I'm there or out, the station doesn't really come in well at my house after 1 or 2 in the afternoon. I think it has something to do with the airport. :?

as a complete outside source in this arguement. i do listen to stern in the morning but between the 15 minute breaks of commercials, i will flip to mmr and listen. i have laughed a lot at this show and i have turned it off to go back to commercials. what cal said is surely true, they most certainly belittle people that have a different arguement then them but at the same time so does stern and i love him. sooo, i guess it is a personal choice. they can be funny but there are times when they are not. some of the stuff that they do, like everyone else, in my humble opinion is a rip off of stern. nat said that stern if popular for boobs and farts but pas just shot hot sauce up some guys ass. it is the same with kid chris on wysp. they are all wannabes to the original. i dont know, like kfc, i still prefer the orginal recipe.
