Nope. But they definately need a woman on the show. When did htis happen, I'm assuming sometime between Sept and Apr?

A few rants:
-When Sandra was around, the traffic would always be done at the 15 and 45. Now it's always late by 5-10 min.
-Dean talks out if his ass. I remember quite a few times in the past two weeks where he's just spouting off false info (St. John's is at Leslie and Cummer everyone!)
-Half the things on the Edge Files are months old.
-Todd quite often really is retodded. Although the two days of Canadian Idol were hilarious. They made that poor kid cry.

I wouldn't be surprised if she quit after working with Dean...

I stopped listening when Humble & Fred left. Dean is an a**hole in the truest sense of the word.

I really miss Humble & Fred. I am having big problems in the morning as I can't find any radio station in the city with a morning show that I like.

The newscasts on the Edge have always treated you like a moron. I like a decent, serious newscast, and I don't understand why 'youth-oriented' stations assume that a real newscast can't fit into their format. The number of commercials around the newscasts on the Edge is also quite bad.

But the bigger problem are the hosts. Blundell is pretty bad, and a lot of the Todd stuff is unlistenable. I have to switch the station. Do they really think some of this stuff is funny? "I've got a real red wagon"??? That's humour?

Other stations have better hosts, or ones that talk less, but then they play Celine Dion. You just can't win.

My favourite station of all time is Triple J from Australia, which I regularly listen to over the net. And since it's government-owned, no commercials!

Why don't you listen to Humble and Fred on Mojo Radio (AM640)?

I tried this a couple of times, but I need music in the mornings. DJs should enhance the show, but they shouldn't BE the show.

I'm going to repopen this age old thred and agree with the absolute crap of the Dean Blundell show. I mean, sometimes the jokes about the "typical male" are funny, though when they are constant they just become stupid.

I wish there was a station with better humor. Something a more intelligent group of people could listen to as well as the idiot public. Give me some ole Family Guy type humor!

I dislike Dean + Todd so much I switched to Howard Stern. Before that I was H&F since 92.

They should get rid of Dean, Todd and Danger and give Barry Taylor the morning drive (and bring back Carlos Benevides to be his co-host). That would be a show worth listening to.

The Edge morning show blows. If I could just combine the hosts of the morning show on Mix 99.9 along with most of the music played on the Edge, things would be so much better.

At least the Edge got rid of Brother Bill. What a farking moron that guy was.

Rock 95.7 isn't bad if you can get it.

yeah, I do enjoy the music and so that's why I listen to it.. and I listen at work, and I don't really get a chance to change the stations during the talk part of the show.

Don't people catch Humble and Fred on Mix 99.9? Prefer the edge, but H&F are great too!

H&F haven't been on 640 since summer of 2003. They're now at Mix 99.9. Also 640 is no longer Mojo format talk radio for guys. 640toronto now blows especially with that douche Craig Brommel on it.

I can't stand Todd. He cried daily for the frst few years. He is annoying.
I would love to kick his ass.

Also therevare way too many commercials. It makes the edge almost unbearable to listen to.


Oh well,

Sometimes I listen to 103.3 the edge in Buffalo, now those two guys are funny.

I just cant wait till Sirius is avail for my car. ( legit )
