All over the country (which I drive around quite often now) there are people on these shows that I literally cannot tell the difference between. It's as though the owners of the stations order them out of a catalog, or borrow one from another station and head to the nearest Fedex Kinko's to get their own stale, washed out, middle aged "hipsters" to do their impression of Howard Stern.
There is a pattern, it seems, or recipe.
Add one sarcastic single syllable named man in his late 30's to early 40's who is so VERY male which has the sense of humor of a frat party from 1962, one "guy" (ie. Cable Guy, Beer Guy, Chair Guy) who is the party animal of the group who shows up to all their events, one (or several) women probably named after pole dancers who are the butt of all stereotypical sex jokes made by the other two who sometimes gleefully play along, and the person who is supposed to be "the sensible one," who boos at things that are too harsh as if to render all the useless filth the others say OK. Mix well. Serve with smattering of news.
I'd even bet that a lot of them look the same. I can't remember much of a difference from one billboard to another, except the names. And there is always two names. Bill and Ron, Mike and Jeff, Jim and Rod.
Of course, all of this could be easily avoided if, in fact, I liked listening to classical, country (I have my doubts... they may have morning shows as well), rap, or celestial harmony music, but instead I have to listen through this utter crap for the 3 rock songs they play an hour.
Please, rock stations... bring the music back in the mornings. It helps me get through my day, even the little bit of good music you still play. I promise I won't go whore myself to satellite radio if you'd just play the music again.
Please?
