Bob took a shot at that week’s Grammy Awards, pointing out that a performance by AC/DC was the single highlight. And there’s no better way to pay tribute to the hard rock heroes than with Lucinda Williams’ cover of “It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Want to Rock ’n’ Roll).
Bob couldn’t help but crow about his beloved Ohio State Buckeyes winning the national football championship behind quarterback Cardale Jones, while Bill sung the praises of Dave Mason’s “Alone Together” album.
Bob rings in the new year all by himself since Bill is probably out somewhere waiting for a ball to drop. Regardless, celebrate the coming year as Bob touches on the artists who passed away this year as well as some of the artists who will be in town in the coming year.
It’s Christmas Eve, and Bob is off celebrating with his family. But fear not…Santa’s favorite elf, Bill, is at the helm with his better half, Jannine. She’s probably the biggest supporter of this show, so it’s nice to have her on board tonight for some scintillating conversation and interesting Christmas stories.
The ballots have been counted, and this year’s inductees into the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame have been announced. Topping Bill and Bob’s lists of those deserving of the honor is Ringo Starr. Originally inducted as a Beatle, he is the last of the Fab Four to to be recognized as a solo artist. Also on their lists are Joan Jett, Lou Reed, and Stevie Ray Vaughn. Enjoy music from them all.
Bob and Bill are guestless and (according to Bill) clueless. It’s December. It’s cold outside, and Christmas is two weeks away. Before getting to the holiday music, the guys spend an inordinate amount of time talking about how Marvin Lewis inserted both feet into his mouth by calling Johnny Manziel the “M” word.
With Bill back in the studio, Blue Snakes & Banjos mark the 33rd anniversary of the tragic Who concert at Riverfront Coliseum when 11 people lost their lives. Jack Greiner and Bob offer their unique perspectives on what happened that night.
It’s Thanksgiving week. While Bob showed up for duty, Bill was off getting ready for the big event. We’re told he was hand-picking each cranberry to be used in his secret sauce recipe. Bob was thankful that his good friend Jim Borgman (yes, that Jim Borgman) was in town and free to come by the studio. We’re thankful for such a great show.
Bob was back in the saddle after an extra extended break from his radio duties. Some say he was receiving karate lessons from Elvis at a secret location in Sri Lanka. Maybe he was, maybe he wasn’t. All we know is that we’re glad he’s back.
Bill paid tribute to John Kelly one of his best friends who died earlier in the week. But there was also some good news. Bob and Bill’s railing against texting and driving seems to be working as fewer Cincinnatians are doing it.
