I'll cash this one in.

The format flips, you take a perma-hike.

The show stays, I'll bid you all adieu.

You should have switched those two.

Sign the check, bank boy.

Okay my little piranha fish, I'll go this far: If I'm wrong, I won't post here for 6 weeks. If I'm right, you'll do the same. (Perma-hike is too dramatic for my taste - I'm no Anthony.)

MVL I can't make that bet with you since you're a mod. If you want terms, suggest something yourself.

Here's my wishlist :

- Dameshek
- Brusca
- Bill Simmons
- A final, cathartic Bitch Bag (PLEASE! For old time's sake!)
- Kobayashi

Or perhaps a Best of ACS 2006-2009 with Adam narrating and giving the dirt behind each scene.

Make it 8 weeks, and that sir, is a done deal.

Oh no, don't let it be true. That will force me and the other Seattle folks right back into the evil clutches of the BJ Shea Morning Zoo (insert turkey gobble drop here).

Taking this back to a somewhat positive, if this really is the last week of TACS, what would you guys like to see in the final days?

Here's my wishlist :

- Dameshek
- Brusca
- Bill Simmons
- A final, cathartic Bitch Bag (PLEASE! For old time's sake!)
- Kobayashi

I agree with all of this except Brusca. Brusca?? Really? You didn't actually like him, did you?

Someone has a vacation planned.

Granted there is some pretty good circumstancial evidence, but this just doesn't feel right. If the station (and all it's personalities) were going away somebody would have spilled a little something by now... there's just too many people involved, both on and off the air.

I say no change, at least to TACS. 2010 (when the contracts are up) is a different story though.

Let's face it, ACS in its current format does not use Adam to his full potential. Having him move on benefits all of us in the long run.

if it is between klsx or kcbs, they could choose kcbs. because it has a stronger signal. and if you are trying to go after kiss fm, you need as many ears as possible.

Yeah, but if I read that right, one's flipping to Spanish and one's flipping to all music. They're both flipping, it's just a matter of which one plays what.

It's a goddamn flamethrower, son.

Yes - very much so. One of my all time favorite moments of the show was very early on in the show - in 2006, when Doug Savant from Desperate Housewives was on the show. Brusca called Rachel Perry to make her watch the show so she'd be able to pose some interview questions, and Rachel left a voice mail on Brusca's cell phone where she said that Desperate Housewives sucked and there was no way she'd watch that show.

Mid-interview with Doug Savant, Brusca cues up that voice mail and the rest of the interview is Perry squirming trying to backpedal and tell Doug Savant it's a good show. Wish that clip was still up there in podcast land so I could link it.
