    It was the Yummy Goodness bar. It contained cherries, cranberries, bananas, blueberries and whey protein powder.

    Will was a great screener--not only was he cool with us regular callers, he was also kind enough to let us know whether or not we stood a chance of getting through that day based on what was going on. Hope you're doing well, Will.

    Any behind the scenes "alleged" dirt you can give us?

    Maybe it's because I listened to very little of the show when Nick was there but I find most of these segments entertaining. Brock and Bochetti are great. I could listen to Artie riff off Bochetti for days at a time. I just wish they'd stick with a co host.

    Thank you sir, you along with many of the other regulars were always welcome voices among some of the drunks and crazies that would call. I don't have any dirt unfortunately. The show was always managed by DirecTV, and their production direction was usually kept to themselves. I haven't had any contact with the program since I left in September.

    why did directv take so long to put it on since they were in control of it? - just delay after dealy. They haven't really gone cheap either since it's been on.

    Sounds good. I'm vegan though. Need a vegan version.

    Are you working on a radio show now ?

    I made a vegan version with soy at one point, but the taste wasn't to my liking.

    I'm currently working Coast To Coast AM tonight and tomorrow along with some other programs like the Jack Abramoff Show and Leo Lapporte.

    Initially, they were trying to build an audience terrestrially while they found the right space to roll out the TV show. It just took longer than they originially expected.

    I think someone has asked before, but did you ever see what kind of ratings the show was pulling in? I'd be curious to know what the numbers are now post-Nick, though I know you know nothing about that.

    Internet is shaky tonight, MPA beat me to it.

    I asked about the ratings a while back. They can now how many people listen online and every radio show gets ratings periodically. No reason not to know this.

    I personally never saw any ratings. Hell, I had to beg them for an affiliates list.

    Arbitron stations within markets, but this information is primarily available to subscribers only.

    I used to listen to Neil Rogers a few years ago and he said each station had to buy them so I imagine anyone can buy it if they want or do they have to be part of the radio industry?

    Generally they are bought by stations who use it for demographic sales metrics. But it is a subscription based service that can be bought for the right amount of money.
