Considered going to the game today (to actually watch it not count the attendance) however wife and I decided to have a few people over for a BBQ. I'm going to be a masochist and have R Sizzle on in the background. At least it exposes him to a few new listeners.

Yeah not Ron's fault
This really is the current state of SportsTalk. The whole “Scoop Vs. Everybody” schtick holds NO WATER. If any of these advertisers, especially ones that are working hard to build their often-fledgling small businesses, find time and/or the ability (low-watt, no-name stations can be hard to find!) to listen to this SportsTalk train wreck (especially in its current ramshackle state), they do find their time and dollars can be spent much better elsewhere. Hence, so many advertisers that are (a month or so of reads) one-and-done.
I do wonder if these business try to listen to see if there ads get read and what kind of show it is
I do feel IF they are able to listen, they probably have a “WTF!?” Moment and get back to trying to make their business successful, instead of bitching about being a “one-man operation” and complaining how “no one wants to work”.
I've got a feeling most of Ron's ad sales are made after he has lowered the price to survival level, and the sponsor just wants to get rid of him.

To celebrate summer, here's a Beach Boys parody.

Ron Gets Around

(I Get Around)

[Chorus]
Round, round, get around
Ron gets around, yeah
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ron gets around
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
From town to town
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's a real hot head
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's making not much bread
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around

[Verse 1]
Ron's getting bugged doing sports talk at the same old place
He's gotta find a new station with some open space
His callers and him are getting real well-known
Yeah, the smart folks know him and they leave him alone

[Chorus]
Ron gets around
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
From town to town
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's a real hot head
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's making not much bread
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ron gets around, round
Get around, round, round, oooh
Wah wa ooh
Wah wa ooh
Wah wa ooh

[Verse 2]
He always works alone 'cause he's never been nice
And he's never had success 'cause he can't take advice
He never reads books 'cause it wouldn't be right
To not watch Match Game programs on a Saturday night

[Chorus]
Ron gets around
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
From town to town
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's a real hot head
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's making not much bread
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ron gets around, round
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

[Outro]
Round, round, get around
Ron gets around, yeah
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Wah wa oooh
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ooooh
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ooooh
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ron gets around
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
He's a clown
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ooooh
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
Ooooh
Get around, round, round, Ron gets around
All along the icy wastes, there are faces smiling in the gloom.

Nothing like a holiday BBQ with the sounds of R sizzle in the background, just remember for some reason WPON does not stream over Bluetooth devices

I've got running around town to take care of and I'll be relying on the thread for the PBP of this trainwreck. To your point radiofan, I can't stream on due to Bluetooth and PON being a pea shooter junk station. Enjoy

I am sure this is the case. Trust me, as I’ve said here before, I’ve seen Ron “The Closer” Cameron chasing those ad dollars/free dinners. He gets ugly when he is rebuffed, so the prospective advertiser is left with options such as “alright, I’ll agree to an ad on your world-famous sports talk program just to get rid of you” or “Go F@ck yourself!” or some combination of both those options.

Thanks for the nice words about the parody. Ron's a real California kind of guy, with at least three failed business ventures in that state (the Banning radio station in 1997, the Central Coast radio station in 1999, and the immortal Long Beach Strikers in the early 2000s).

9-11?! Again, Ron's not oriented to time & space. But at least he corrected himself immediately.
