Only goddamn try-hards send emails on Friday afternoon.

Probably true, but if they are,they seem to mix up their material. Or it’s all so ephemeral that it makes zero impact on my subconscious. Either way, they’re doing the Lord’s work and giving me a nice distraction from (not) doing work.

And not wrong about the lack of emails. Got to the last and thought “that’s it?”

In 48 of more that 200 markets. The rest still use paper diaries. But sure, the PPM is totally better and has absolutely no flaws what so ever. 

The % of people listening in a local market is much more important and is what would be used to monetize the show. And considering how few people still listen to terrestrial radio, 2.2 million is a lot. That’s over a million more than Dan Patrick in fewer markets. 

What do you mean sending random people a form and asking them to record what they’re watching and listening to is flawed?!? That sounds like a perfectly cromulent way to gather data.

In all seriousness, it now seems positively wild that people ever took Nielsen/Arbitron ratings seriously, but no one ever came up w/ a…

Arbitron has been measuring radio listeners for decades now. It’s similar to how Nielsen collects television ratings, so by no means is it as accurate as podcast downloads. But, it’s something.

He’s probably one of their biggest radio personalities. From Awful Announcing last summer:

Spatchcock is good, or if you’re feeling lazy, I’ve seen a fair amount of grocery stores that cut the whole chicken into its individual parts and then sell that so you can pull the pieces that get done sooner than others. Smoked chicken leftovers is also really good as chicken salad.

Also, beer can chicken is about the…

You forgot to list when you take the colloidal silver.

And how to correct an imbalance of humors.

I-95 and then the Mercury Highway

Come on, that’s gross, baseless, and unfair.

Ivanka’s are obviously real.

“John Roberts has made his decision; now let him enforce it.”

The rod up that team’s butt has a rod up it’s butt.

What’s next, showing kids scenes from “Silence of the Lambs” in order to get them to use sunscreen?

You and Michelle Bachmann need a good history lesson.

Hamilton was a vastly overrated royalist twat who kept poking people and then would run and cry when they fought back. I am forever #TeamBurr. 

I think they played on a Monday night game late in the season and they showed a graphic of everyone who was hurt and the randos they had pulled off the street the week before. It was quite something.

They had some pretty serious defensive regression from 2017 to 2018. 2017 they were top 5 in DVOA, 2018 they were 15th, as I think their secondary was just abysmal, though that could have been due to injuries. 

Glad they’re ok, but holy hell, that has to be about the scariest thing for a 17 year old driver to experience.
