First, the wallflower, Sarah, aggressively challenged Crank's opinions and came into full bloom. The subject they were discussing was whether or not college football players should be paid. Our critic wasn't keeping score, but he claimed Sarah won. All he could tell us was Sarah felt strongly that players should not be paid because they signed a contract and, besides, they're getting a $100K free education...that's pay enough. She expressed herself the way our critic knew she could. All he could remember from Crank's side was subtle deferment to Sarah's point of view.
The second thing he noticed was the absence of Phoebus. With the lump of clay gone, our critic knew
why the wallflower had a chance to bloom.
Flowers wither in clay, but bloom profusely when there's a lot of crap
around. No wonder Sarah came into full
bloom Thursday morning.
Doing a little research later that night, we discovered that
Phoebus isn't on vacation. He's left
radio to join the coaching staff at World Gym Millsboro.
We
wish him the best and advise him to refrain from using his ailing Sylvester the
Cat impersonation. He might get his ass
kicked by those much bigger guys we see on the website photo.
Our interest piqued, we all tuned in this morning promptly
at six. Sarah was a little more mellow
than how our critic described her performance the previous day, but, yes,
finally we all can say that the wallflower is blooming! Ok, the three guys are grinning ear-to-ear,
but the two women only begrudgingly acknowledge that maybe, just maybe, Sarah
will blossom into an entertaining morning host show.
Right now, Sarah is a flint spark trying to ignite wet
kindling. Sarah is about ten years
younger than Crank and Crank is entering his middle-aged years. Even though the two more or less agree
philosophically (conservative Christian), the age difference alone should ignite
sparks to set the show on fire. At
least us three guys are hoping Sarah is the woman we always pictured would be
able to body slam Crank to the ground and shut him up. Wouldn't it be a wonderful show if Sarah sat
in the Captain's seat and every time Crank spoke, his thoughts were prefaced
with "Permission to speak, ma'am"?
As for reviewing the content of the show, honestly, none of
us paid much attention, nor did any of us listen to the whole show. We all were more interested in the dynamics
between Crank and Sarah than we were about what they had to say. We've seen the spark and we may have to
listen more. From Crank and JJ to
Crank, JJ, and Sarah to JJ and Sarah to Crank, Phoebus, and Sarah to Crank and Sarah, maybe
WZBH has finally hit a winning formula for the morning show.
