...his show was the shite back in the 90s and early 00s. It was very organic and the regular callers were not scripted as they now are.


eehh

I never listed in the 90s but did listen in the early/mid 00s. It wasn't the caricature it's become today but make no mistake it was still a radio version of jerry springer. Basically just getting AU/UA fans riled up and then have them call in to talk shite to each other.

This. By God this. I don't care if they were fake. That was the funniest shite I have ever heard on the radio.

I will never forget him referring to Hank Aaron as a cabana boy. The guy is a little POS and I have no use for him.

Shane from Centerpoint

Those were the main original callers I remember when he had Neal Vickers as his sidekick. Show was hilarious back then. Now he's just a politically correct hack.



You know the show was authentic when Shane died and Bobby from Homewood called in to talk shite about him and claim victory with his death.

Show went downhill from there but only because Paul banned him from calling ever again.

You member that time Mildred was on a car phone and said she was heading to Auburn to see if Tubberville's love pole was as big as his ears?

The show is like all "reality" shows. eventually the thing that made it popular gets scripted. Those callers make what could be a decent show unwatchable.

Yeah, Fred is really good. He’s a lawyer I believe.

Another old school caller I forgot to mention:

Chris from Gulf Shores. Dude laughed constantly while trying to speak. Must have always been high or something.
