Ron "The Show" Hughley
 

Is there a worse sports personality in KC?

I’m an obnoxious guy. He makes ME uncomfortable listening to him right now.

Fescoe?

Not even close. At least Bob knows he is a dork.

There is nothing worse than Fescoe.

^Fescoe account.

Fescoe is awful. It's criminal he's on the radio.

The thing I don't like about Ron is that he legitimately finds a way to make anything and everything about race. EVERYTHING.

Hell no!

Ron the Show pretty much takes the opposing view on everything and makes no sense.

Known him for a long time, went to HS w/ him, grad in same class, we weren't bff or anything but we had a lot of mutual friends. Nice dude.

But yeah he can get obnoxious on his show. Huge liberal at heart who's been fed by the lie. Pro-anthem kneeling, would follow Marcus Peters over a cliff's edge, all of the race garbage etc.

His takes are generally pretty terrible and often make no sense.

Fescoe and KK are both worse.

Thanks for the lost 10 mins of my life listening to this idiot.

Those 2 along with this guy are the KC radio trifecta of terror.

Can add Brad Fanning to that list as well, still don't know how he got on 610.

I liked Ron when he was on a night. Always seemed to be an enjoyable listen while making dinner or whatever.

It's been a train wreck since he moved to days. Talks to low to be heard, plays music and talks over press conferences, starts unnecessary fights and constantly interrupts Vern. Hopefully he's just working through some polishing on his persona.

Fescoe is 100 times worse than Ron. At least with Ron you can tell he actually feels his stupid thoughts. Fescoe is a shill and never stands behind his beliefs. Like KK.

Him and Vern honestly just sound really unprofessional and like they don't know what they're doing.

Parkins had the best show on 610. Now Carrington.who was the third most talented between Parkins and Heisler, has the afternoon show while the other two have moved on to better things.

The guy has a jolly voice and persona, but his views and takes are just horrible. I've always hated him on the radio, ever since he was on the night shift. And it's not politics. I'm sure him, Parkins, and Carrington have similar views....yet I like Carrington and even Danny Parkings waaaay more. They are just much better at their jobs.

Anyone hear Petro on Paul Finebaum's show yesterday? Finebaum and the Alabama fans were upset that Petro doesn't have Bama at #1 with his AP poll vote and has Clemson instead.

I thought Petro handed it to him pretty good.

I have always thought that Petro comes across as a conceited ass. It is one thing to be really knowledgable about something. It is another to think that there is no other correct opinion than your own.

he should've dazzled Finebaum with some Stump the Chumps trivia, or some other form of hard hitting radio.

Yeah, I tried to listen to the show when they had Terez Paylor do a live show last night, and I made ot 45 seconds. The guy could probably be talented, but he is directionless and does seem to be controversial fornthe sake of being so. They are definitely wasting Josh Vernier. He was incredibly good with the Royals shows.

Jay Binkley doing the Royals is a dumpster fire. I think 610 thinks Josh Vernier doing a 110 loss team is a disservice to him.

The most annoying part of the show is listening to Ron's lap dog Serta(sp?). He is literally cackling in the back ground the whole time Ron talks. Ron is a ****ing reerun too, but Serta is such a beta puss.

Why has sports talk radio in KC been terrible for 20 years?

It sucks, I like hearing Binkley talk about the Chiefs. He's by far the most enthusiastic football radio guy, and he could not freaking wait for Mahomes and Hill to play together. 2 months before this happens, they make him cover the Royals. :cuss:

I've heard better college shows than Ron and Vern...it's unlistenable, and the only reason it's on is because they work cheap and the product sounds like it. Bob is just as bad, but for different reason...mostly he thinks he's a lot better than he actually is. He's a sidekick at best. 610 is just a clown show in general.

I don't know that it has - there have been some pretty good ones. DA, Nick Wright and Parkins are all legit radio talents, whether you agree with them or not.

I do not care for angry sports guy. It is just sports & you are supposed to be a pro. I turn off Petro when he starts one of his rants.

This show is horrible. What is with him referring to himself as Daddy all the time?

Are these the guys that go to lunch buffets while on the air?

Every time i turn this guy on he is talking about politics.

i generally can listen to anyone. not going to lie, he makes it hard to listen. i do like vernier. but show is a hot mess.

he's in love with himself. He thinks of himself as the smartest person in the room at any given time.

meanwhile, everyone else looking at him, realizes he's a complete moron.

he's truly awful. how anyone with decision making authority thought it was a good idea for him to have his own show is also an idiot.

Show is horrible...just awful radio. I was trying to listen to him a bit earlier. He started off talking about the Chiefs. He was going off on an Orlando Scandrick rant for some reason, but whatever, it's at least a Chiefs discussion. Then suddenly, in the middle of that conversation, he started a rant about Beyonce that continued on for five minutes at least before I changed channels. Had no clue what he was talking about or how he even got on that tirade. I just knew we were no longer discussing the Chiefs, or even sports at all by that point. :shake:

Fescoe and Soren grind on my nerves sometimes but I can at least understand the points they're trying to make. Show is unintelligible at virtually all times.

What's worse is when you 'tune in' to these shows from 1200 miles away and they aren't even talking Chiefs.

I've started listening to more podcasts now.

Because in that particular "biz", your goal is to make it up to a large market, because that's where the money is at.

Much like Mizzou sports, KC sports talk radio is a stepping stone job. All of the good ones leave when bigger/better jobs start callin'. Take Nick Wright for example. He was annoying at times but he had good takes on lots of stuff and did his homework, unlike Ron.

810 has been a dumpster fire for years. Not sure anything can save that station.

I used to like the day shift. Then Lake went to ATL(?) and they delegated Binkley to Royals coverage, which makes no ****ing sense considering he knows much more about football. At least now they have him on his own show and it's actually enjoyable. No way should Ron have taken over the Day Show. Should be Vern and Binkley, but 610 likes having a black and white co-host for some reason. I can't stand Ron's loud mouth and then his little ****ing weasel Serta cackling in the background like a middle school girl who just fell in love for the first time.

Show is not very good. Seems like a budget Whitlock. When him and Vern finally get a good back and forth going, show always tries to use "news flash" to get the last word. And yes, if it can possibly be tied back to race, he will go there.

Dumb show...can't listen to it. Vernier can't get in a word edgewise. Also, I get annoyed by how obviously Ron is trying to channel Chris Rock and his vocal schtick.

810 intentionally just has local dudes so they won't leave.

Hey that’s the douchebag that called me out on Twitter, then wouldn’t respond when I asked him what I said that was factually inaccurate. Duck that guy.

810 is probably not a good example of "stepping stone" but they're still garbage. If they're not broadcasting a game Im interested in, I never tune in.

810 is for the 55+ year old listener. Maybe catch a nice racing segment or talk some KSU sportz!! Both equally exciting.

I'm 20+ years younger than that and I like 810 because they actually talk about college sports. 610 NEVER talks about college sports. It's exhausting - their coverage about Royals in the summer. ONLY Chiefs in the fall. Over and over again. How can you talk about the same shit so much?

610 talks about the only college sport that really matters around here; KU basketball, a ton. They just don't waste time with the mutt and ksuck segments because there's like 18 people out there that actually want to hear them talk about sub .500 basement dwellers.

You'd be surprised how much they *don't* talk about the Chiefs. Ron and Vern are yawning during Andy Reids press conferences and talking about other things during it.

I tuned in at 10:05am on Monday after the Chiefs game and they weren't talking Chiefs - they went on for 5 minutes about how much some guy on ESPN was sweating.

Ron brings nothing to the table though. His takes are shit and he just yells the whole time. Vern could do that show by himself and it would be way better. But he's not a loud enough idiot to attract other idiots like Fescoe and Show are so that won't happen.

Good question but then why listen to it. I have not even heard of some those dudes mentioned here on the 610 side.

No, he is the worst all time. Not even close.

I really liked Vern pre and post game for the Royals. I thought he was so money. He definitely needs a new partner. Ron is so bad that it's hard to evaluate Vern.

I actually think that Bob Fescoe is worse than he is. Ron is sorta funny sometimes and Bob seems like if he loses just a few IQ points he will be considered functionally reeruned.

6am- 2pm is some terrible sports radio generally. I will look at the radio app and listen only to the guests that are appealing. I do kind of like the guys in the 2pm-6pm show though.

If you hear Fescoe laugh at one of his own idiotic takes or jokes or whatever you'll understand how he is the worst ever.

Bob is actually decent IMO. Bob really really hates St. Louis, which I can get behind.

I almost never hear them talk about KU basketball - unless it has to do with the FBI investigation.

What?

Have you never listened during basketball season?

Fescoe is funny if you listen to him as a satirical version of a radio show host. I never listen to him seriously, so he can actually be pretty entertaining. Not good for actually sports news, but funny as a parody.

I can find some type of pleasure in every show on 610's lineup...


besides Bob's show. Its so bad.

The afternoon show is good. Was better with Parkins. But Carrington at least brings energy and humor and some good takes. All 3 of which are lacking on Rons show.

Fescoe is an acquired taste, like ass. Some people like ass, but most normal people don't.

Him and Vern are both terrible. They are lowest common denominator with their discussions. Both were pushing Mahomes throws picks big time and that Peters was a victim of the city not liking his politics. Then of course they discuss politics or other social issues and their thoughts are just cringeworthy. After our first three or four games Vern said he wasn’t changing his expectations for the team because his opinion before the season was a 8-9 win team. Unwilling to consider new evidence or admit he was wrong about the team. He was going the Mangini route for sure.

All that said, people can have differing opinions or thoughts that don’t always make sense and that’s fine, but it’s just so obvious they don’t prepare at all or utilize any sort of information to back up their opinions.

Steven Certa has possibly the most punchable voice ever.

I leave for work at 11:30am every day, and it takes me 20 minutes to get to work. In the past couple of weeks, 610 hasn't talked actual sports even once. Petro has only been slightly better.

It's nuts. We are 8-1 and have one of the best young QB in NFL history, and they are talking about crap like prank phone calls, buffets, and crap like that. The closest 610 has come to talking sports on my 20 minute drive is discussing an upcoming segment about songs that make Mahomes sound sexy.

Fescoe is a moron. Serta and Hughley, and the others on their show are ridiculously bad.

Carrington Harrison is the only one I can stand. In fact I really like Carrington. Too bad Danny Parkins left town.
