FB not Gregg Daniels? - moobsminger - 10-05-2008
On Friday, Free Beer made references to charity scammers butchering his last name. How could anyone butcher "Daniels"?
I wonder if that's not really his last name. If he wants to keep his last name private, that's fine with me, but it seems weird that he would create a radio last name that he very rarely references.
*shrug* Maybe "Daniels" is too hard for some people.
He should just legally change it to "Beer."

Years ago I worked in television and dropped my last name for a more generic and easier to pronounce last name. I used a version of my middle name. That is the case with a lot of folks in the media (maybe free beer as well). The main reason is to avoid the inevitable stalking and intrusions by the public using online searches and phone books. It is not a secret that Zane did the same thing and so do most of the people in your local news. You normally can tell when a news anchor or weather person have a first and last name that sound eerily like two first names. Again, this may not be the case with the beer, but just thought I would throw it out there.

Try having a Polish last name. Rule is, if they can't pronounce it, hang up on them, unless its senile Grandma who, despite having a Lithuanian last name, can't pronounce it.

I don't even let it get that far. There's always that slight pause between when I say "Hello?" and they start their recognizable pitch, and when I hear that I instantly hang up.
As for the original topic, I have no input.

who cares what his real name is? he's Mr. Free Beer and that's all we need to know.

now why would you axe such a silly question as "who cares?"
of course you know who cares, the same people that want to know why hotwings misses or why zane cant make it in for the rest of a week, and the same people who REALLY need to know why joe and nikki aren't together.
it's annoying, yeah, but as long as this board is here there will always be these questions showing up, and i hope none of the show members answer any of the questions like this.
FB not Gregg Daniels? - moobsminger - 10-06-2008
Yeah, like I said, I don't care if he's using a fake name. - I completely understand why he would do it. It just came as a surprise when I was thrown off by the thought of someone not being able to pronounce Daniels.
FB not Gregg Daniels? - Howie Feltersnatch - 10-06-2008
I totally agree with giving us listeners a fake name...
Beleive it or not but my name is really not Howie Feltersnatch....my birth name is Howard Feltisdic
FB not Gregg Daniels? - egowx - 10-06-2008
and 20 bucks says Chris Michaels may also be a stretch.

Hey, look up "Minger" in the Ceresco phone book, and yes, you can call me. My mommy and daddy named me "Moobs," because they were so obvious, they showed up in the sonogram. and I'll post the birth certificate if I have to.

I think you have to.

Some people are still alive because it is illegal to kill them. Really? I hope you are a new listener. You couldn't figure out Gregg Daniels and Christopher Michaels might not be their real last names? 2 fist names, with an s added sure seems suspect to me. I could be wrong, but who in tv or radio use their real names?
And really..who cares?
FB not Gregg Daniels? - burnking - 10-06-2008
You're absolutely right. It's completely unheard of to have two people with first names as last names be friends.
I'm not saying that there isn't a chance that they are using fake names, I'm just saying that I don't think it's stupid for one to think that those are their real names.
FB not Gregg Daniels? - moobsminger - 10-07-2008
I personally know people in radio who use their real names. Hell, Rush Limbaugh uses his real name.
FB not Gregg Daniels? - plumpenut - 10-08-2008
so does Tom Barnard although Terri's last name is different

After dropping out of college, Limbaugh moved to McKeesport, Pennsylvania. There he became a Top 40 music radio disc jockey on station WIXZ, a station that covered the Pittsburgh area. In October 1972, he broadcast over Pittsburgh station KQV under the name "Jeff Christie".

This isn't permission to brand me a "Rush lover". I'm just a fount of useless trivia.

IDK if everyone knows this or not but Zane's last name is not Zane. I believe it's something else with a Z. I heard it before but forgot what it was. It's something kind of crazy so that's probably why he changed it.

Yeah, I know what it is, and I even have a clip of it from one of their videos, which I was about to post, but out of respect for his privacy, I'll leave it alone.

This makes me wonder how many people in the radio/news business have changed their names. It would make me feel better about Carl Apple from Wood TV if that were the case...
