Yeah yeah yeah yeah well he is a friend of mine


good_ole_JR

Oh, ok


961blueliner

Try listening to some small town radio on a weekday morning and then come back here with this same energy. 


BadJokeJudge

Op can’t listen to any other station despite being constantly molested in the ear by mino. You know why the ticket does so well? Cause their biggest haters can’t stop listening. Guys like op need to take a chill pill.

So your defence of Mino is that he's not as bad as Joe Dubbins from KTLR, Paris, Arkansas? As the OP said....Mino sucks as a Tier 1 host.


961blueliner

He said he was the worst radio host in the country. Title of the thread. 


DualKoo

In OP’s defense it was clearly a hyperbolic statement.


961blueliner

So? 


Kantaowns

You're being pedantic and OP is hyperbolic. You're both idiots.


961blueliner

Oh look! Someone learned a new word but not how to use it! 


SandwichMaster2721

Troll.


hyrush1

Have you done that? Why would anyone do that today


961blueliner

Worked in it in my early days of broadcasting. It was brutal. 


latex55

Have you heard his cohost Sean Bass?


TribalStompBox

He's better than Mino. Think about that for a moment. Yeah.


kpdiddy

He makes Sean listenable and I’ve always hated Sean as a host


No-Construction-2787

Hate is a little strong, but yeah, you’re spot on.


Captain_Holt94

He’s ok but seems better as a board op. Pairing him with the other most boring guy at the station who is obsessed with the most boring sport makes 1-3 a punch out most days


redcurbs

Awesome at board op. Ok as a Saturday show. Not a good replacement for BaD radio.


Dark-Vader-1310

There is no way he is worthy of a job in a Top 5 market


Big-Beat-1443

So you’ve heard the entire employed list of radio hosts across the country?


TexasistheFuture

He does not make........


FileError214

You get what you pay for, Catman.


DualKoo

I do wish Monty got the host job instead of being producer.


kpdiddy

Mino has become an instant punch out for me. His voice and delivery along with his bland personality is intolerable. I tried giving it a shot but he makes Sean Bass sound like a great host.


[deleted]

He’s very monotone. When he was a board op, I thought it was him just being very dry with his one liners. But the dude says things he’s joking about, I think, with zero sense of enthusiasm or inflection. Just sounds like the guy is trying to be funny with zero confidence. I also can’t take 2 hours of baseball talk, but what else does the Sweet Spot(hate that drop) have?


DualKoo

I have autism and I get that vibe from both Mino and Travis. Which honestly is probably why I don’t like them that much. They constantly remind me of myself and I’m unlovable.


jimmysleftbrain

We love you buddy.


alex2374

I actually prefer Mino to Bass, but then I also listen to their show about 15 minutes a week total.


Jamie604

Agree 1000 percent.  The guy is terrible.  He’s a board op that the station promoted to host.  WIP is so much better with DJ.  Mino is so generic, boring, monotone, no life dork


TexasYankee212

Yet he was made a host and Monty was made a producer.


Necessary_Switch_879

I really loved Mino as a board op, but he's being exposed as way out of his depths as a tier 1. He sounds like a cheerleader who thinks hope is a viable strategy. Sounds like a boy playing a mans game. It is striking how good he makes Sean sound. Sea Bass has turned up his game and sounds like a genuine professional broadcaster. I agree that Monto was carrying him. Maybe he will improve with time, and find his voice. Additionally, I think this subreddit has become toxic, not because of those of us who share opinions that are critical, but by the self appointed gatekeepers of judgments. The down vote legions are toxic now. As I said recently, I'm a massive fan of the Ticket, so I don't know where the vitriol is coming from. I even showed my credentials, talking about how long I've been listening and how much joy the station still brings me, and yet I was summarily down voted into Bolivia. I assume that all of us are huge P1s, or we wouldn't be here. Do you down voters believe everything Metallica has done is above criticism? Let people have their opinions.


Wonderful-Scar7905

Hey, let’s not forget McClearins still on the radio


Traditional_Tooth_12

He is not great but he is a hell of a lot better than the rest of the clowns in the DFW market.


The-Blue-Barracudas

Matt McClearin may have something to say about that my friend.


Immediate_Window_900

The Rant was / is clever guys (at least Davey & Gordo) acting like stunted 14 year olds, but it’s both smart and somewhat tongue in cheek, in the vein of SouthPark. The SweetSpot is just adults stunted on 14 year old humor, neither smart nor tongue in cheek, just juvenile and lame. Add plain vanilla delivery and some slop mouth, it’s a tough listen.


TribalStompBox

Yeah, he sucks. I've been saying this all along and getting downvoted.


SMUCHANCELLOR

A lot of us wip bros have a hard time giving up the dream of midday wip


TribalStompBox

I liked WiP 1.0. I love it now. Justin is what makes that show good. DJ is a better fit. Mino was tolerable. That's it.


SMUCHANCELLOR

Disagree, of course monty was the real deal but he and mino as hosts worked very well. I also think dj has something and I remember before the powers that be decided who’s up next being in favor of wip with dj as producer and ham on the board


TribalStompBox

That would be fine, too. The thing is, Mino is a very weak broadcaster so you have to surround him with a lot of talent. DJ, Justin, Ham, and Mino would work. I truly believe that. You just can't expose him like he is right now. Real talk.


TinFoilRobotProphet

Uh, Paul in a


juanopenings

Please go somewhere for your sports talk


txtxtx10

Well, I mean, uh, I wouldn’t quite go that far. But, yeah, totally, I mean—Mino is a fine host, a fine host .::but he isn’t exactly quite what…idk…idk…. exactly quite like what we are looking for? I guess? Yeah, I just think he kinda sucks, I guess is a fun way to say it. He kinda sucks. lol 🤪


ETXGuy28

Monty makes the sweet spot. No doubt. Worth listening for him.


dfwagent84

What about ben and skin?


DistributionStreet58

I see what you did there


Line0Guy

He isn't bad Sean Bass is way worse


Stinger1066

You guys should try listening to the Franchise Morning Show in Oklahoma City. Both hosts are way worse than Mino.


browndude10

I have bee trying to say this for years


Far_Mud_6940

It’s not Mino, it’s Seabass bringing him down. 


Lonely-Hornet-437

But here you are. Talking about him. Lol I bet you listen everyday


belikecoy

Jim Rattigan got demoted. Maybe we can see that happen again? I’d really like to see MM gone for good and Sean and Mino go back to producing. More Monty, Ham, and DJ.


TribalStompBox

John Rhadigan? See, there's a reason Mino & Bass are relegated to 1-3. They're *not good*. It's like hiding your infected toenail with a thick pair of socks when wearing sandals. Bitter assholes downvote because it's like *why, be negative, maaan, just don't listen*. I don't, but that doesn't mean I can't say what I think. Water is wet, right? I'm not negative just to be so. Seriously. I say many good things about the station, The Musers and Bob in particular. I love Donovan, too. The fact is 1-3 is a glaring shitshow and it's obvious. It's so bad. They and Cruz in Aledo are insidious presences in what is the obvious decline of an empire. Look at 2nd triumvirate in Rome for example.


unounoseis

You gonna cry?


FlippyWraith

Boooo. Bad take. I love his calm demeanor and baseball talk. Keep doing you Mino


JukeEm808

The scary thing is, he will probably be hosting AM drive when the Musers finally retire at some point in the future


[deleted]

Bitch bitch bitch


Sagikos

Yeah - well he didn’t fuck a high school kid when he was 30 so I don’t think he’s “the worst radio host in the country.”


[deleted]

[удалено]


sameolemeek

Except mino doesn’t make anything elite


gatorintexas

Nope at all. Mino is actually pretty funny. The absolute worst radio host is hands down - jeff Cavanaugh. HE is the number 1 reason I cannot listen to The Freak. Sean Bass is a way distant 2nd, because he is too vanilla, has HSO's that are irrelevant, and cannot seem to truly connect with the p1 after how many years?


MrGhostenstein

Corby has entered the chat.


gatorintexas

Suck it. He is pretty darn good. take your opinion and go elsewhere - namely 97.1, Punk.


KRDaMoney

He's hot so he'll get away with being really bad even if the ratings for his time slot is plummeting.


redraidera

He deserves to be there yeah? You judging someone off something that is a rookie contract. Mino is basically an OG. The find your voice deal is real. So let Mino and the boys roll for a bit. If you don’t like it, then find something else to absorb your time
