Honestly, I haven't listened to that show for a while. I had no idea SSS was even dating someone. The only part that's been funny is the George Stein segment that I catch from time to time. I just can't stand listening to SSS try and convine everyone he's a ladies man.


I will admit that one of my old roomates had a brother thar got a tatoo of the Regular Guys on his butt to win some concert tix.

I am a long time listener of the show. Have been since they come to Atlanta on 96 rock. I dont get to listen as much these days, due to my job, but I get a day or so a week in.

Was shocked when Eric was fired yesterday. Seems like a lot of bull going on behind the scenes. I am not sure anyone knows what happened.

These guys have been booted from the radio three times in Atlanta and their ratings are down. I dont expect the show to last now without Eric. He was the difference maker on there.

Larry and Steve just dont have the entertainment value without Eric.

Hate to see that show die. It was always entertaining.

Shocked that Eric Von Haessler was let go, felt that he brought the show back to the center. Will still listen...love me some Zombie Reagan.

I missed that Eric was canned. That'd explain why I didn't hear him this morning.

This was awful news to find out Monday. When TRG started in the 90's I didn't even give them a chance because I figured it was just some stupid shock jock (SHOCK JOCK!) show. I'm not sure how I got sucked in around 2002, but I did and loved the show ever since. Without a doubt Eric was my favorite. His news segments were so much more interesting to me than any of the comedy bits. They said they wanted to skew more female... yeah, whatever. You get rid of the smart one who isn't a sexist pig. My wife can't believe their line of reasoning.

I'll probably still listen here and there since nothing else outside sports radio is worth listening to in the morning. But it won't be the same and I'll bet that show is going to be gone sooner rather than later. There is quite an uproar from listeners about it.
