Conservative estimates claim here are 850,000 active podcasts and more than 30 million podcast episodes . . .
We mention this not-so-fun fact because . . .
About a year ago, Sports radio host Kevin Kietzman agreed to part ways 810 WHB part ways . . .
But don't blame "cancel culture" for the radio legend losing his crown.
Kansas City Chiefs fans HATED the sports talker skeptic who had grown increasingly acerbic throughout the course of his career. His sentiments were out of line with the fanbase that was desperately cheering the team to a historic Super Bowl victory.
Social media rumors have been speculating a return for months and a recent row with the Mayor seemed to signaled the return to broadcasting.
This time in podcast form.
And all of this confirms a prediction our blog community made LAST YEAR.
"Oh God, is he gonna have to get a podcast now?!?!"
Turns out we were right.
Whether or not anyone cares is another question.
You decide . . .
Might be able to outdo some cooking shows.
ReplyDeleteIt helps to have thousands of megawatts back up a talker. But this could still be fun. He might not return to his glory days but this should be fun!
DeleteHe's a broadcasting genius, always on point, and almost as good as Jason Whitlock. Can't wait to enjoy his podcast.
ReplyDelete^^^ He's a creep. Nobody will listen and now we'll be able to see so for ourselves.
ReplyDeleteBroadcasting genius? Shouldn't you be working on content, delivering packages for Amazon, or cleaning the grease trap for the deep frying at McDonald's, Kevin.
ReplyDeleteHe'll be back on KC airwaves by winter of 2021. In Jan he'll be on 710 going against Dana and Parks.
ReplyDeleteKC Chiefs fans weren't as mad at Kietzman as KU fans were. Those are the people who exaggerated his commentary on Andy Reid into a national news story so he would get canned. Unlike other KC sports hosts, KK wasn't afraid to upset Bill Self/KU Sports by pointing out the cheating scandal that rocked the school long before the NCAA judgment went against them. The other hosts at 810 are chickensh*t to point out any problems with KU because they either went to KU, are married to KU grads (Soren Petro) or afraid of KU grads in management (Chad Boeger).
ReplyDeleteTHAT is telling it like it is! Straight dope there, my friend. Spot. On..
DeleteThe replacement for Kietzman has been terrible.
ReplyDeletewhat's he going to talk about? No one gives a shit about sports now. TAKE KNEE MOFO.
ReplyDelete810 Sucks.
ReplyDeleteMiss the days when 810 / 1510 first began and they had a lot of national shows and fun listeners who would call in. The callers is what made it a fun listen in the old days.
The morning show of St John and Bukaty is 75% commercials with the other 25% boring stories of their personal lives.
Bukaty is incredibly boring with his long, drawn out personal stories trying to promote himself as a SJW which is pathetic. He is as WASP as one can get. Bukaty must give Chad Boeger blowjobs to have stayed on this long. St John, on a rare moment, has a funny line but 90% of the time he comes across as unprepared.
Petro sold out his patriotism and the National Anthem proclaiming he supports kneeling during the play of the National Anthem. Jock Sniffer.
Like most Kansas Citians; quit listening to 810 years ago and don't know why folks advertise on the station as no one listens anymore. They must pay Nielsen Ratings to give them a bump in listener-ship ratings.
Just what the world needs. Another fucking podcast. Genius indeed.
ReplyDeleteZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz...........

ReplyDeleteOUCH!
The things he said can be forgiven.
ReplyDeleteBut not forgotten.
Andy is beloved in KC and so rightfully respected.
The podcast should be a right for anyone... in this case it should not be anything to do with the Chiefs. Or Andy.
KC will not forget.
Wish he would move to Siberia.
Doubt Coach Reid was so thin-skinned that he would ask for Kietzman's head at 810. The pressure came more from KU loyalists who took the story national to get Kietzman off the air for all the cutting criticism of the KU hoops recruiting scandal and other parts of their sports programs. He was the only KC sports host who didn't suck up to Bill Self. Petro might as well start kneeling before every show and bow to a BLM flag.
ReplyDeleteWho the hell is super Dave and why is he licking Takeisha's butt?
ReplyDeleteIf a bitter white guy records his grievances while sitting alone in his closet but nobody is around, does it make a sound?
