I ...You know, I am not the biggest Josh Innes fan. I don't hate on him like some do and honestly find him funny sometimes. I do have several issues with him though. First, his lack of sports knowledge is very obvious. He actually knows enough to qualify as "Casual Sports Fan". And I'm no Charlie Palillo when it comes to sports knowledge (though I feel I have more than Josh) but I'm not a radio personality on a major market sports station either, the leader in the ratings no less as Josh likes to trumpet frequently as though it is due to him personally.<br /><br />My next problem is the fact that when I get my kids in the car, I have to hover with my finger near the button to switch the channel due to his sometimes inappropriate talk. I know this has been brought up before and he has brushed it off as everyone else's problem. And I don't the talk sometimes but I think there is a time and place. And afternoon "ride home" radio on a non-subscriber format is neither, in my opinion.<br /><br />Also of note are some of the things you raised in the article: Life of Josh, Deadbeat Dad, etc; It is old and repetive and I am over it.<br /><br />But the newest thing that has gotten very tiresome is the sound mixer thing. Once in a while? It can be a very funny bit. Very frequently? It gets old real quick.<br /><br />Bottom line, I think Josh needs to up his game. Show some growth as a SPORTS RADIO host, increase your knowledge of the topic in which you are supposed to be hosting and stop going to the same well to try and entertain. Otherwise, perhaps it's time to move down the road with a new person next to Rich.Sir Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04541159543417270472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067604525757369409.post-46617305397938182662013-03-19T15:27:50.870-05:002013-03-19T15:27:50.870-05:00right on with Josh...i have been saying this from ...right on with Josh...i have been saying this from day one...however i have gotten used to his tirades and meaningless chatter...the problem i had was he was doing it this "all about Josh" stuff too often. <br /><br />i think Josh can be entertaining but not on the drive home from work on a all sports station during the 3-7 time slot. he could be good in a man show format like a Adam Carolla and Jimmy Kimmel had a while back on their Man Show.<br /><br />the new program director needs to push for Josh to start honing his craft as a sports talk host....its been a few years now he needs to put in some work. however he has made it this long and like always 610 says they have the ratings so maybe that works for him and 610.<br /><br />Reese<br />@mann_at_armsshynolan_reesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02163123610720825542noreply@blogger.com
