Downtown Bars

Quick Service, great patio, decent prices and a large enough mix of people as not to annoy me.

Just try to order a drink if you are male… better to just stay crammed on the walkway with the other 200 thirsty guys.

Sure I’m a bit biased but both shows stellar morning ratings (consistently 1 & 2) prove my PPM ratings theory: people don’t want to hear the same damn music every morning or syndicated shows. They want local entertainment in the form of talk radio.
