New Voice-Over Guy - BWN 7 - 04-06-2009
New Voice-Over Guy? The sarcasm is FAIL, he sounds like he's reading a script (which is what he's doing).
It's different, and [Ron Burgondy]I. DON'T. LIKE IT. [/Ron Burgundy]
As you were.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - 0rz0ski - 04-06-2009
Yeah...why do we have that guy? Are we mocking someone else in the business? Is this social commentary on something? Is the new syndication guy making you do it? We demand answers, and less voice over!
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - maximaxine - 04-06-2009
Come on its the first day give it a chance.
Relax
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - BWN 7 - 04-06-2009
Uh, the guys are the first to say when something sucks. This, sucks. Eventually I'm sure it will fade in to white noise, but I won't apologize for calling out Teh Fail......

It sounds like goldenthroat.... is it?
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - Rock Monster - 04-06-2009
They talked about this coming up a while back. The guy is some famous voice over guy, and was willing to do it for free.
I like the change.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - hotwings - 04-06-2009
We've gotten new voice guys a few times over the years, but usually we've just been using whoever the station was using. This guys is soley ours. It always takes a while to get the imaging to sound right and to get the delivery to sound the way we want it, so it's a work in progress, but it'll tighten up. BTW, it's not Len "Goldenthroat" O'Kelly.

Re: New Voice-Over Guy - burnking - 04-06-2009
It's definitely different and will take some getting used to if they decide to keep it. The way they were talking about him, I expected more of a movie trailer voice.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - Mark the Valet - 04-06-2009
Hey guys, remember when your favorite morning show was replaced by these idiots calling themselves Freebeer and Hotwings?
Yeah, me too. I hated them because the name was stupid and they weren't funny! I also hate change. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Oh wait, this new voice-over guy is the exact same situation? STOP. NO. LOGIC IS NOT ALLOWED HERE.

Oh I get it, because Hotwings came in and said it's a work in progress, that means my argument is null and void.
STATEMENT RETRACTED.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - maximaxine - 04-06-2009
all though I like freebeer saying phone number and email address I could listen to him talk all day he has a very nice voice.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - mayorofawesometown - 04-06-2009
I don't really like or hate the voiceover guy. I'm fairly indifferent. More than anything he just keeps catching me off guard.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - hotzester - 04-06-2009
Not a fan.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - Mad Dog - 04-06-2009
It will take me a while to get used to, but I don't hate it :|
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - thegriz - 04-06-2009
this new voice over guy reminds me of wayne's world. when they went into the studio for the first time and had that cheesy voice over guy. it sounds a little awkward...
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - bitely450 - 04-06-2009
This guys sucks, he couldn't sound less interested in the show. Get the GRD guy to do these, he's way better.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - aprusky - 04-06-2009
If this guy offered to do it for free, I would pay to get him off the air and put my douche voice on the air... I think I could pull it off.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - potthole - 04-06-2009
I'm very curious to hear this dude tomorrow when I listen to my podcast.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - LimpBagel - 04-07-2009
I think the main reason it sucks now is because how different he sounds from anyone else talking. It's like when the guys were having microphone problems a while back. Or when you listen to a flashback either from Knoxville or even 2+ years ago, everyone sounds different because of the mics.
Once you listen enough it will fade to normal and then the old guy will be the one that sounds shitty.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - mudplug - 04-07-2009
The GRD guy does it for lots of radio stations. I think the whole point is that the new voice over guy is exclusive to FBHW.
I HATED the intro and outro to 'what hotwings thinks' before. So to me this new guy is a HUGE improvement.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - jeeps19 - 04-07-2009
The new voice over guy sounds a little like len o'kelly from the oldies station.

Really? You think? Tell us more.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - Titan! - 04-07-2009
I can't tell if the new VO guy is supposed to be intentionally lame and therefore funny or if he's being sincere and is therefore lame
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - hotwings - 04-07-2009
Intentional

So far I don't care for him.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - Titan! - 04-07-2009
Sorry guys, I'm just not feeling it.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - iwantjoe - 04-07-2009
I'm with you, Titan...not feelin' it.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - potthole - 04-07-2009
About the only new voiceover that I didn't really like was the intro to WHWT-- as nitpicky as it probably is, the deepness of the voice just seemed strange. The outro he did was fine, just that intro.
Aside from that, I thought the new voiceovers were fine with everything else. Sure, will take some time to get used to it, as with most anything new, but overall the rest of the voiceovers didn't really have that 'wierd feeling' that the WHWT into did.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - captnpea - 04-07-2009
Voiceover guy sounds like something from Bob and Tom. Keep up the good work, your getting better guys.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - kp - 04-08-2009
It's going to take a min to get used to but he's ok
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - potthole - 04-08-2009
Just got done listening to Tuesday's podcast, and I thought the mixing in of sound clips with the VO when coming back from commercials was a huge improvement.
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - 0rz0ski - 04-08-2009
I agree, and turning the music bed down helped too. When the volume was up, it was like Zane was having a senior moment and was mashing the sound effects machine with his face.
I love being on the Spite Board
Re: New Voice-Over Guy - Ashleyme - 04-08-2009
I'm midway through Monday's podcast.... make it stop, for the love of everything, make it stop haha I'm hopeful though that some of you say it gets better on Tuesday
