You must not have listened to me over the past four years...I have never hid my thanks to ISU on this front. I know some ISU brass has even heard me say it and has passed along the message in house. They do a fantastic job, and they are very wise when it comes to the timing of press releases to take advantage of the daily news cycle.

I have listened from time to time. The worse thing about the AM show in KXNO is that half the time I cannot get KXNO in that earily and I am not always out of the house when you are on. So no I dont listen everyday.

I am sad to hear the show is ending. It was pretty good radio.

Can we just replace it with a two-hour daily segment of Beat-it? :smile:

I'm guessing the upcoming gubernatorial vote also has something to do with Steve's decision. I know he works hard for his afternoon show, and I'm sure that ratchets up when voting season rolls around.

Maybe KXNo will get smart and bury giggle/tiny Canadian in the AM hour and bring something substantial to the 4pm hour.

And then, since 1700 doesn't play Gottlieb's show, could KXNO put it on? It's my opinion that he has the best show on ESPN radio and I would love for a local station to pick it up.

Nope. 1700 has the affiliation with ESPN, 1460 has the affiliation with Fox Sports, they can't run programming that isn't produced by ESPN and Fox Sports respectively.

This sucks... I listened to podcasts everyday and intentionally didn't listen in the car in the mornings so I wouldn't miss pieces of the show. then would be mad at myself if that day they didn't post a podcast...

Anyway they that you guys can start doing a show at 6-8pm and replace the cardinals and the other fox crap at night??

Best of luck! Wish you guys could have made it until after football season.

Miller might be a Hawk homer but he gives ISU their credit. Unlike Giggles, Miller realized that a good chunk of his audience were Cyclone fans, and he couldn't alienate them. Yes, he gave us **** sometimes, but he was usually fair. And that I can respect.

that approach didn't hurt Deace - in fact it helped him big time.

Really going to miss the show, I to have a 6am drive to work, and really enjoyed the both of them. Aside from the weekly Lost breakdown, it was a good show, better then anything in this market thats for sure. Gave some real insight into our local sports teams, and the national scene. Will be missed for sure. Good luck guys in your future opportunities.

They were definitely a good listen. Far superior to that **** head Perrault.

Obviously Cyclone Jerry and Tommy From Des Moines would be in a league of it's own, but I think the best realistic combo would be Blum and Hassel.

Just got going here. Have they talked about the reasons for the abrupt ending?

Deace talking about it right now...I've only heard from 7:00 on but it seems like this was Deace's decision with Miller not sad he made it. Deace says family is the reason he can't do it anymore.
