awww... Irish Greg participating in his first Super Bowl buy-a-box grid.  Our little boy is all grown up! *sniff*

They replayed one of their "Mind the Gap" segments early this AM (pre-6 o'clock) - presumably it was one from last week. Man, both contestants were pretty clueless.

question to the "young" person: "Bea Arthur played Dorothy on this '80s sitcom" They even played a clip! but the girl said "uh, the Sonny & Cher show?"

The older guy wasn't much better but he won by giving the only correct answer -- he actually knew who Perez Hilton was.

Oh, and Adam Levine's "Lost Stars" is suddenly getting multiple spins per day, presumably because it's an Oscar nominee for Best Song.  (it was co written by Danielle Brisebois, of all people)

This segment is a complete rip-off of Don Bleu's Generation Gap.

yes absolutely -- but that's where Irish Greg worked previously, so I guess he feels entitled.

The segment predated 103.7 and Irish Greg, but there must be no intellectual property protection, so what the hey. From a marketing perspective, though, lifting a well-known segment from a well-known competitor would seem to make your station look bad.

"Feel Good Inc" by Gorillaz -- not one I've heard much on KFOG

I realize he's in town next week, but it seems like KFOG plays Billy Idol once an hour lately.

There's a post on FB by "KFOG Radio"; the topic being SF-vs-NYC, where would you rather live... I swear the comments look like one of the parody FB threads that our Big Fingers McGee does from time to time.

Doing a new one of these crosses my mind from time to time, but I'm afraid that other group has gotten waaaaay too sensitive. My idea would be to have a thread focusing on people not being able to find basic information, such as where today's 10@10 thread is.

Last night I stumbled across this brief FB post from the Morning Show on Wed am:

Quote
As we prepare to move to our smaller studios, it's time to make some tough decisions about what stays and what goes. ‪#‎KFOGintheMorning‬

Had to dig way down the comments for further details, but it seems that they are decamping the Hawthorne St. studios that they've occupied for quite awhile (since before I moved to SF in 98, not sure how long before that) to someplace "near North Beach." I know there used to be a ton of media out that way around Jackson St. in the Barbary Coast area, and Channel 5 is still on Battery.

And that prompts the question, is the entire Cumulus "cluster" all going that way? It would seem to make sense that if one's going they all will.

pre-10@10: Two earlier-than-1980 "oldies" in a row ("Blue Jean" and "Honky-Tonk Women"). Of course, they were preceded by Milky Chance for the billionth time.

Bowie. And it's actually from '84, so never mind.

That's what I thought, but also was thinking maybe there was a '70's song with the same name.
