Fanatics is the best local show. Murph and Andy are great too. I don't care for the morning show due to Travis. Heather is good and I'm glad she's on KXNO. It'll be good to have Ken back on the air because he's better than Jimmy B.
I actually don't mind the Morning Rush. If anything its worth listening just to hear what dumb thing Sean Roberts said or did. I usually don't mind Travis either, maybe it's just his sick twisted ways of thinking I find entertaining but he's no where near the level of annoying that many other former KXNO hosts reached. I still wonder what could have been had Miller not ditched Heather to go running back to scumbag Marty once again but then again we'd never have the Fanatics had he stuck around. Chris and Ross are by far the best show for local sports talk right now and they have gotten so much better than they were when they first started out too.
As an out of towner that will listen to listen to iheart, I stay away from most of the crap radio shows. I'll tune in to Chris and sometimes to Murph and Andy (but NOT the Time with Tana segment-BAD), but DP has lost me over the years.
Just FYI for you and all, they haven't done a Tana segment in literally years now. M&A is a daily podcast listen for me.
Morning Rush is god awful. When they brag about their ratings I roll my eyes.....only reason they have anyone listening at all is because there is absolutely nothing else to listen to that is sports related here in this market during that time slot. The Morning Rush can barely qualify as a sports show. Sometimes they skim over some topics but the rest of the time it's Travis with his crude sexual innuendo and both of them making fun of Sean. I'm also quite certain that I pay more attention to sports and I've got a full time job and a kid to tend to. Seems like they surprise each other when reading off topics from the sports websites that they cruise for content while on the air. Essentially no show prep at all.
Heather and Ross is a decent combination but Heather doesn't show much depth with sports topics. She routinely mispronounces the names of fairly well-known figures. Travis and anyone else is terrible. Travis is OK in small doses, but horrible in a daily 2 hour radio show. Bruno is awful also, like someone just mentioned.
The morning rush is a decent show. It's better with Ross and Heather. Murphy and Andy is a great show, and Cw has really come into his own with his show. I personally think Ross is the best sports talk guy in the market.
It's cuz our guys are out recruiting. #thoseguysinAmesRoss is at his best when Chris is on the show, when Chris is gone for whatever reason he is not as good. But yes they have a good show. Murphy and Andy are good except when they go Hawkeye heavy and it pisses me off they have a Hawkeye staff member on every week, yet cannot get anyone on weekly from ISU (Walters, Heft, a coach, Pollard, anyone) to talk Cyclones.

I get that you are being nice and political but Marty is scum of the earth. The number of people he's ripped off, the amount of money he owes, the company he's kept (Luebke) is off the charts ridiculous.I don't want to get into the mix of discussing my colleagues. I love them all. But good news for you guys that Campbell will be on my show weekly this fall. Matt and I talked about it last week and he is excited to bring that to the KXnO audience knowing that Kirk does the weekly deal with Keith and Andy.

This Travis fella predicted the Huskers to go 11-1 or 10-2 this season, SMH. And #9 is the exact reason I listen to Fawcast and the Saturday podcast during my morning drive time. Oh, and I have no desire to listen to the life and times of a 28 year old guido talk about the reasons why he overslept and which dating site he likes best.

Preach! I really wish the morning show was better. Not a fan of Travis Justice at all
