Just a reminder as you head off to your long holiday weekends: I’ll be guest-hosting the Scott Hennen Show on WZFG, AM1100 Fargo/Moorhead.
As always, the online feed is here, and the call-in number is 888-598-8464.

You know Rob, there will be times when Scott is on his game and the debate intense, he will lose that creepy tone and sound great, so I know he’s capable of a great radio voice. Heck, I listened to Hot Talk for years…
If you listen to announcers on commercials, you will invariably hear a practice where the speaker emphasizes the air (breath) through his words. This is a trained “skill”, as it supposedly has a positive effect on an audience. I spent some time in a voiceover studio a few years ago and picked up on some of the tricks…
Unfortunately some people over-do it and it comes off disingenuous and smarmy, and Scott, in my opinion, overdoes it…To distraction…
Ed is the exact opposite, screechy, fingernails-on-the-blackboard tone, but he and Scott share one insanely irritating talent; They can’t for the life of them allow anyone to finish a sentence (or begin one, in many cases)…

I’ll start listening to SCHULTZ!!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! I could never listen to that pompous ass.
Met him a few times. Even more pompous in person.
Hard to believe.
Interesting how he is still fairly right wing in person, saw a need and filled it to line his pockets.
Sold his soul for a money roll, as it were.
That’s why he doesn’t talk politics outside of the radio show. Doesn’t want anyone to know he is really a right winger. He would probably get mobbed by a group of Dino’s.

Thank you Rob. Nothing against Hennen (though I guess it’s something against Hennen), but it’s nice once in a while to have a host on Hennen’s show who isn’t constantly talking over people, bobble-heading the Bush Admin, and sounding like a spokesman for a used car lot. I swear, if Scott doesn’t give up the breathy, cheap broadcast school delivery, I’ll start listening to SCHULTZ!!

I guess I’ve never noticed Scott to be someone who interrupts people a lot.
Maybe it’s just something that comes with being in radio for a while. Having worked on the other side of the microphone a few times now I know there’s a lot going on, and they’re always watching the clock…
Anyway, glad you like me on the radio anyway. I hope to keep doign more.

I actually think Scott’s got a great radio voice. Ideologically he’s more moderate than I am, but hey it takes all sorts right?
