32 years and still going strong. Many ownership changes but still one constant. I know there are detractors out there but Levy must be doing something right to keep this venue. The bottom line is always $$$. Apparently the ratings substantiate the sponsors' support.
The J.O. in Phx sure has a way with woman. PREACH ON !!!!!!! Hey Denny, Did you ever wonder what happened to LISA'S PIZZA and Bob's chicken cacciatore on the bone. September is a month for change in radioland. Will Bob see year 33 ??????. I hear little billy h sent in his resume.
If you understand how advertising works you might not be as sarcastic. Of course there might be a little "over-hype" but that is what they are paying for. You can look at it a few ways. Maybe those other places got a real kick start to their businesses and no longer need to advertise as much as before. Maybe they went under. Advertising dollars are being stretched all over the place. One thing I do know is every one of Levy's recommendations have worked out for me. Whether it be Jim Higgins the chiropractor, Mark the transmission guy, Gateway Toyota or the various eateries I have been satisfied with the product. Of course he has to tout an advertiser but I know Justin(his adopted son) very well and he has told me how Bob tests out prospective advertisers and if he in not impressed he does not endorse them.
What is sarcastic to you is me just "finding the humor". I would say "truth in advertising" is an oxymoron when it comes to endorsements by radio hosts. Aluminum foil in your attic and reverse mortgages are just a few examples. I have called these advertisers out on the air. Not to mention the many "financial advisor" shows. Have you bought any gold? Don't you love it when Mike Francesa reads a live spot? I guess we can agree to disagree on Bob and integrity in radio advertising. GO PACK !!!!!
I haven't bought any gold. I've been digging in my backyard for years and have yet to find any. You are comparing other shows to Bob's. As I just said, I have tried many of his recommendations and have been satisfied for the most part. The reverse mortgage deal is an option for seniors who are desperate. The ones who really resent them are the prospective heirs. All of a sudden they are not getting what they may have been anticipating they "deserve".
"I can hear you. The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon."
- President George W. Bush,
Standing at Ground Zero,
New York City, September 14,
2001.
The Mastermind of the 9/11 attacks was Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. He was captured on March 1, 2003, in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, and is awaiting trial at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
The Money Man responsible for the 9/11 terror attacks, Osama bin Laden, was shot and killed by U.S. Navy Seals, on May 2, 2011, in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Isn't it funny HOW the name of Pakistan keeps turning up in regards to 9/11?
Even if Iraq turns out to be the greatest democracy in the world, its liberation was not worth the life of even one American GI.
- Bob Levy, paraphrased.
The Colors of the United States of America are Red, White and Blue. These Colors do NOT run! Never have, never will.
MORE FROM THE ROGUE'S GALLERY.
Mullah Mohammed Omar, Taliban leader in Afghanistan at the time of the 9/11 terror attacks. He's STILL awaiting capture.
Saddam Hussein, President of Iraq. Hanged by his OWN people at Camp Justice, Kadhimiya, Iraq, on December 30, 2003.
CORRECTION:
Saddam Hussein was hanged on December 30, 2006, and NOT in 2003 as I stated in a previous comment.
Doesn't make ANY difference, really, the bum is STILL dead!!!
