1. This is Good

Mike Rosen is on KOA, the Limbaugh station.

David has been playing Darth Vader theme all morning leading up to this debate

2. Thanks for the link.

3. Doggone it!

I wasn't listening. Who was it and will they continue after the break?

Edit - I see now that it was Rosen. I'm tuned in just in case they continue. Thanks!

4. Yes They Will Be Back - Entire Hour

Mike Rosen

6. I can hear sweat popping out on Rosen's brow

I'm pretty sure he thought this would be a cakewalk. Never so when the opponent is Sirota. He's as sharp as a tack. Rosen has had to move on a couple of times already - which is his way of conceding a point. With callers, Rosen can, oops!, lose a caller to electronic glitches. Not today with David sitting there with him.

Thanks for the heads up!

7. Funny - Brought Up Rosen's Huge Loss of Money

though Ponzy schemers and deregulation

9. And Rosen started losing it at that point

He never could regain his calm and was getting more and more strident until the break.

Did you hear the first piece of news when they took a break? Two cases of flu have been confirmed here in Colorado. Health Dept will be giving a news conference today.

[otohara]

10. I've Never Ever Heard Rosen's Voice

until today.

Yep, CO no longer flu free.

11. Rosen's been on local radio for around 30 years

I remember listening to him when I was working and driving around out in the field. He was one of the only conservative voices back in the 1970s. He hasn't changed much. Still arrogant in tone. Sirota is knocking him off his pins today. Rosen isn't used to this. :D

[otohara]

15. I Used to Work in Radio

Clear Channel bought the group (KBCO, KHOW, KHIH) I was working for... the day after Clinton signed Telecommunications Act....then couple years later when I was at different group (Alice, KIMN, KOOL) they bought those stations.

My new boss fired me - I sued for ADA, Age - Gawd what a nightmare that was. They settled with me, but the stress nearly did me in.

I knew Martino, and a few others on the AM side, but never met Rosen due to my canning.

16. How interesting but awful at the same time

From the inside, you've seen radio change so radically.

5. thanks for the heads up

[otohara]

8. Rosen Pissed Cuz Sirota Laughed

WTG David.

[eleny]

13. Right before Rosen lost his money he wrote an editorial dissing PERA

That's my state pension system. Many responses including one from me. Then he lost his money a few days later and the responses to that same editorial were so sweet to read. Karma paid Rosen a visit. :D

[otohara]

12. Continuing For One More Hour

Yeee....haw...

[eleny]

14. Sirota admonishing Rosen for dissing a caller after Rosen hung up on him

Go on there, David! Teach "The Michael" how to be a good radio host. That was priceless given how Sirota is so new to being a talk show host.

[otohara]

17. My Bad, Or I'm Confused

I thought 2nd hour would go until top of hour, but maybe it's now over.

If not, go here:

18. Sirota just called Rosen a "partisan water carrier" for W

Whoot! :rofl:
