KUT/X and Sun radio are the only stations worth a shit.

Pretty much.

I hardly ever tune into KGSR/ACL Radio anymore as both KUTX and Sun Radio are far superior, but this is still sad to hear.

Shit, I just found it a couple of weeks ago.

The dynamic bw E Hogan and his new sidekick is horrible. Hogan talks the whole the time and the other guy just interjects every 15 or 20 seconds and repeats one or two words Hogan just said.  It reminds me of something I've seen in a movie but I can't put my finger on it.  It's unlistenable.  Are there any podcasts or streams that talk Texas sports?  Is Babers going to go anywhere?  I think he is really good.

E Hogan is overrated. People just thought he was decent because Bucky Godbolt shared a show with him for so long.

Never liked Hogan. He came off as an asshole or arrogant, or often both.

Agree that Godbolt came across much more genuine and down to earth and enjoyable. Even if he was pretty goofy at times.

I used to drive all over for work and the Horn had maybe a few listenable moments back then, but that was many years ago.

The one young guy who was still a student at UT was also entertaining and had a decent radio persona.  Can't remember his name but he moved on a couple years back, and looks to have done so at the right time.

Its been years since I listened to any Austin sports radio, but when I did it was usually Bucky and Erin. Erin was OK when discussing sports, but the problem is they all too frequently ventured off onto popular culture tangents or updates on their own personal lives. If you go that route, you better be entertaining and Erin is boring as fuck and the next funny thing he says will be his first.

This is when I miss the prime days of Jason Dick. His divorce saga was pretty funny

Check out the On Texas Football podcasts and YouTube streams. Rod has been doing the daily (afternoon) “Longhorn Livestream” and then does one or two others a week it seems like.

BK and Bucky Godbolt have a morning show every weekday from 8-10 AM on the Texas Sports Unfiltered app. They have other shows throughout the day as well. https://texassportsunfiltered.com

Considering that you couldn’t get that signal most of the time, it was gone a long time ago.

Met and spent a good bit of time talking with him at a wedding weekend two years ago.  Incredibly nice guy.

Ha. I know the Lone Star guys. Runnnnn. 

On Austin sports radio, when I moved back to Austin I tried to listen to the various shows but they were all so bad as compared to The Ticket in Dallas I couldn’t take them. I can’t even keep any of the broadcasters straight except for Babers. Anyway, Austin Sports radio sucks and that’s a shame. It shouldn’t.

How much time did he spend on telling you what was coming up?
He spent a lot of time on that at the Zone.
