KXNO Sports Fanatics
- Thread starter Acylum
- Start date
I think not hearing Condon's voice and his obessive gambling talk would be my preference
I think listening to a UNI grad who worships the Hawkeyes is not my idea of fun.
That's a reason I think pairing him with Brend would be good. Miller is a degenerate gambler too, so that spiraled the gambling talk out of control. Brend isn't as in to it, and would likely keep to a relative minimum outside of discussing lines and the like.
I like the idea of a CyHawk show that would be super "sports" forward and have two lifelong non-alumni fans that absolutely know their schools' histories and realities inside and out sparring a bit. You have the middle age guy/young pup type split too.
I think they could be pretty good sparring partners. Maybe not a year round thing, but like a weekly recap/look ahead during football and basketball seasons.
There are enough hawks on the radio, no need for anymore.
iHeart/KXNO know nothing about local sports/media/interests. They seem to be very dumb when you think about it.
I'd guess Trent and maybe a few others could/may target another station or streaming service. Heck, they aren't even playing the World Cup games anymore on KXNO that Sean had set up. Dumb, dumb and more dumb.

Debate is a lot more interesting to me than a circle jerk where everyone's in agreement (even if I agree with said circle jerk).
Two Guys is pretty good at this, but it's kind of "more" than what I'm envisioning.
I wouldn't (and don't) listen to his Locked on Hawks show, but he'd be a good part of CyHawk show.
Lol yeah that's the dream. To start a newspaper in an Amish community.
As a journalism grad, do not waste your time with newspapers. It is depressing. Horrible hours, low pay, and usually terrible places to live if you're young. Independent media is probably the most promising outlet right now. Talented video editors can do well on social media. If you can pair a talented video editor with a strong personality and reporting skills, you can earn a following. Not easy, and what Iowa Everywhere has built takes a lot of connections, marketing, and hard work.
Or you can face reality and use your skills in marketing and consulting like the rest of us.

If you do it right you can still make a good living with newspapers. I did. Especially after the Amish Bishop allowed the Amish to run display ads instead of classifieds.
Maybe if you started your career when newspapers were still relevant. It's not worth the crappy pay, hours, stress, and location. It's not a bad place to gain some experience, but you can make a lot more doing a lot less in other fields.
We will disagree.
I try to avoid all things hawk and have absolutely no interest in hearing what they have to say.
I think a show with Condon, and Jon Miller, and maybe another tavern hawk would have a perfect spot in the garbage can on the surface of the sun.

The first 3 times Condon was mentioned in this thread I read it as ‘condom’. I better get my eyes checked.
