As we catch up on the last few weeks of calling in to the John Carney Show on KTRS, here’s our August 9th segment. Take a listen as we stumble to figure out on the fly what we’re allowed to say on the air, while dropping way way way too many “you know”s:

Notes:

– God Voted For Todd Akin, Claims Todd Akin

– St. Charles Police Catch a Predator Dateline Syle!

We’ve been bad about posting these, but here’s our August 2nd segment:

– Creepy Looking Guy Does Something Totally Creepy

– St. Louis’ Not So Missed Connections

Listen live on the Thursday night edition! We’re going to start Facebooking/Tweeting out when we’ll be on, so look for the heads up Thursday evening.

We haven’t mentioned it much on the site yet (other than our header ad you might have seen) but we’ve hooked up with KTRS’ The John Carney Show to do a weekly on air segment. We discuss what was on the site over the last week, or other random shiz with Carney and then we’re done. It’s simple, fun, and since it’s radio, we don’t have to wear pants.

The show airs weeknights at 9p – 12am and we usually go on around the 9:45p on Thursdays.

Updates below! Short version: While we are 100% confident in our source saying Trish unoficially quit Thursday, they have apparently convinced her to stay. (This was confirmed by Trish via Twitter)

Original post follows…

We have independently confirmed what STLToday’s Deb Peterson broke yesterday: JC Corcoran has been fired from KTRS. However, our source told us that show producer and on air “sidekick” Trish Gazall will not be staying on, which is contrary to what was reported by Peterson.

So remember when we celebrated “JC Corcoran Says Pujols Will Re-Sign Today” Day? Well that whole thing is still going on. No, not the actual day, that came and went with no Pujols news. What’s still been happening is all the chatter since then which came to a head yesterday after KTRS suspended Corcoran for two weeks, as was initially reported by STLToday, but was independently confirmed with our sources as well. The official word from KTRS has been a firm “No comment.”

Update: So it’s now officially Saturday and Pujols is still a free agent. Not because Corcoran was wrong of course, it was probably because this thing, this other thing and what’s his face did that stuff they were thinking about doing and that pushed the whatever back a few whatevers until it’s all ready. Then he’ll be right. You’ll see.

It’s Friday, and that’s a big deal for another reason other than the fact you get to wear a knit shirt and chinos to work and spring for the beer at TGIFridays during lunch. It’s also the day the 550AM mid-day talker JC Corcoran says Albert Pujols will announce that he’s resigning with the Cardinals! It must be true too, because it was on the radio, and the radio has never lied to anyone ever.

KTRS’s  (550 AM) McGraw Milhaven and KMOX’s (1120AM) Charlie Brennan both called the Riverfront Times to complain about each other in this month’s edition of “Irrelevant Radio People That Think Anyone Gives a Shit About Their Stupid Arguments Over Who Gets What Guest First.”

As usual, lets have Mr. Blockquote fill you in on the details we didn’t actually acquire ourselves.

Mr. Blockquote: Ugh do I have too? This story is lame!

A reader forwarded us an e-mail they recently got from KFNS, one of the approximately 17 sports talk stations in town, to show us how amazingly crappy their “E-Blast” is. They were right, it suucccckkksss! …but we weren’t exactly surprised and gather that the other stations in town offer more of the same, so they should all be paying attention instead of laughing at the back of the classroom while we whip out the ruler on poor KFNS.

Friend-of-the-site, J.C. Corcoran recently found a seat behind a microphone again after nearly a year of being “on the beach,” on middays at KTRS (550 AM). However, like the conservation of mass (Physics reference boosh!), the conservation of radio jobs works os that when Corcoran came in, someone must go…that person was not-exactly-a-friend-of-the-site Charles Jaco. (Previous story) Up to speed now? Good. Well you should also know that people hate change, and so the other day J.C. got an email from a “listener” who wishes everything could have just stayed the same because new voices coming out of his truck’s dashboard scare him.

After a year of being off the St. Louis airwaves, friend-of-the-site J.C. Corcoran, is returning to local radio. KTRS, in the midst of a major overhaul after losing the Cardinals, has hired Corcoran to fill the mid-day 10a-1p slot. John Brown‘s show the Mindset (which we were a guest on earlier this year) has been moved back to a 1p – 3p slot.

But what of Charles Jaco? KTVI reporter, writer of accusatory emails and current KTRS radio host? Toast!
