No best of type intro, no mention the phone lines aren't open. Small town radio at it's best.
I wish Bob Addison well working with the Stammering Kangaroo. This is Dreck's third shot on NW and if week one is any indicator, maybe the strikeout will occur sooner than later.
Dreck is a music guy, not a news person or a talk show host. Most former NW listeners I know were driven away by his annoying tone of voice. There's no warmth to him. He just sounds like an angry person who doesn't know how to smile. He thinks he's in the same league as Bannerman, Burns, Webster etc just because he's on NW. Think again young hipster. You are an absolute nobody and that is unlikely to ever change. Remember, you weren't hired at NW because of your talent (or lack of), it was because your old pal Ronnie Stanton thought he could get some free publicity by hiring you for some all night shifts on the FOX after your demise in Courtenay at Vista for your idiotic MILF remark to Premier Christy Clark.
A national late night show based in Vancouver sounded like a great idea until we found out who the host would be. I was personally hoping for 7 nights a week split up by the likes of David Berner and Stirling Faux. Oh well.
And if you haven't tuned in, Lynda Steele seems to be enjoying her newfound freedom in the afternoons with the removal of the annoyance.
