what is the Ron & Fez music on the O&A show (or maybe it's just fez's music...)? i only hear bits and pieces of it, and it almost sounds like Beastie Boys, but i'm not sure...anyone care to fill me in?

no teasing- O & A actually eluded to it and did a mix of both shows opening music.....

they had Fez on the show and he has a KROCK appearance with Ron tomorrow at some club. that is when Opie mentioned/asked why would Ron/Fez be doing an appearance for a KROCK sponsored thing when they don't work there. that is when they started to play the music to lead to this speculation thread.

The Radio Biz must be very tough to take. They were on for one ratings book do a great job then theyre yanked a few months later they may be heading back there, So theyre negotiating etc I presume/speculate. It takes a certain type of personality to handle that kind of instability.
Well we can only hope its true

I think the problem was that a couple radio shows doing well in the ratings can't carry an entire talk format. But I don't think they gave the entire talk format there a fair shake personally.
I heard that on the O & A show too

MikeB,
Not for nothing but the fact the pre-recorded promos changed from featuring E-Rock of O&A to Fez of R&F and E-Rock of O&A says something to me. K-Rock may be holding them to appearances but they won't be going out of their way like that to promote the appearance unless it has an effect on their bottom line ie. a return to K-Rock for R&F may being seriously considered at a minimum at this point.

You people can't see the forest for the trees.
Ron wasn't on KROCK, what does he have to do with anything?
Fez is going SOLO. "Fez Sayz" will be late nights on 92.3. It'll be like a sassy loveline without the love.
Fez has been carrying the R&F show practically by himself for too long and now he's finally gonna get the respect and loot he deserves.
I can't wait.

07-25-2007, 07:56 AM
K-Rock could certainly use an afternoon drive show. I hope it's true R&F are coming back, but Opie was so over-obvious it's probably another "See how stupid you listeners are" moment.

I couldn't agree more. Fez has to carry Ron and Earl all day everyday. If it weren't for the occasional shit eating Dave. Fez probably would have had a heart attack by now or at the very least been started on some medication.

based on the fact that ron & fez cleaned up on their last books, and having people like dukes in their corner, i'm sure that they will be back on krock. my only question is when and what time slot. aside from all the hints they are still paying that non working earl and dave, anyone think they'd have contacts like that if they weren't still gonna work for them? ron & fez have contacts i don't think at least producers do, i'd expect them to be at will employee's like rest of us. now lets all start speculating what time slot and when!

I honestly don't think the Ron and Fez Show is the right kind of show for afternoon drive. That's no insult to them, I just feel the show moves at a different pace thank most shows I've heard in that slot. The show just had proven success in their early evening slot and tons of past proven success in a similar slot.
I would take them back on Fm anywhere and anytime, but if I had my choice I'd like to see them back on in the early evening.

I disagree. Late nights were actually best for their kind of show, but it's a step down at this point in their careers. Really, offering them anything less than morning or afternoon drive is an insult. Also, for a music station that has an AM talk show, they sure would want to add a successful afternoon show if they could. O&A have mornings, so unless R&F specifically turn it down, they ought to get afternoon drive.
Let's jump ahead for a second and assume it's that:
We may get walkovers.
We may get bigger guests. (Likely)
We may get more events.
We may get national terrestrial syndication.
I think it's a win/win for R&F to get afternoon drive.

I don't see ANY FM slot as an insult personally. They were off the air in Market #1 and suddenly were back in evenings. That's pretty big. Plus they proved themselves in that market, it was just the station that didn't work the format correctly. Ron and Fez did everything right.
But I do agree at this point it would be kinda lame to accept anything but their old slot or an upgrade. I'm not saying Ron and Fez wouldn't do very well in drive time, I just don't think it would be the kind of show a station is looking for at that time, and in the end might move them again. FM stations are fucking idiots, they don't know how to use shows properly, so they layoff the talent instead of the overpaid stuffed shirts.

Did Ron drop any other hints during today's show? I missed most of it. Opie can't be trusted but I remember Ron mentioning that someone wants to make an announcement.
Also Ron mentioned "Tracy" a couple of times, and at the end of the show he mentioned "Tracy really came through for us"
Is this the Tracy?

I'm guessing KROCK just needed someone to do an appearance and since R&F are still under contract, they gave them a call. I really think it was a throwaway line by Opie hoping to drive a thread like this one.

Theme Song:
Fez says
I'm done with dating Ant
And acting like a sex doll
He hides
The bowl of Rohypnols
He won't remember nothing
Fez says I've never been in love
I don't know what it is
Unless it's with a wrestler

Well, if the show was nationally syndicated on a Larry King, Art Bell, or Loveline scale, that wouldn't be a step down. However, afternoon drive would be good too. If the boys have shown anything in the past 8 years, it's that they are highly adaptable to any format.

After listening to the actual audio ... I think Opie wasn't just randomly throwing it out there to be a nut. I think O+A are really smart about radio. He wouldn't say things like "Let the rumors begin" if he didn't have a good reason for wanting there to be rumors. Perhaps i's either:
1.) He knows KROK is dying in the afternoons or evenings and needs something to grab viewers, but the fan pressure needs to be stirred up to make a case for R+F. or
2.) KROK really does have plans and in order for it to be successful it's going to need a buzz buildup.
More importantly ... why doesn't someone who knows post on this thread? There's been no authoritative no ... or I'm just wishfully thinking...
