Speaking of the real Dent, Van DeVeer, you know, they guy who gave you and all his grandkids land that wasnt supposed to be sold. Well you sold it for what.... $400 an acre? The piece right across the fence just sold for 13K an acre this spring. There were how many grands? There were a dozen or more pieces of ground. just imagine if you had just kept the land like "DENT" wanted, you would be worth 2 million, and if the family had kept it all you'd be talking tens of millions of value. But that 300k radio station is a real accomplishment. Probably why the real DENT left a legacy for his entire family for the future generations. Not one for you to steal his name and for you and your sisters to blow it all.......
Your name isn't even Dent, its a disservice to the real Dent, who was a great man. Stealing someone's name and calling it your own doesn't make you great. Create your own legacy with your own name. That would be an accomplishment.
The famous uncle dave! The man who says all us Brauns need counseling because his sister is a perfect mother and wife. I guess he doesnt want to hear anything about her adultery, drinking, dancing or how she neglected her oldest son to suffer a diabetic death. Not to mention how the woman disowned me, sued me and evicted me from my childhood home, all documented I might add, but dont worry dave, after years of abuse and neglect I was able to find myself ;) Its sad you couldnt at least listen to me as a child suffering abuse. Shoving a child back to their abuser is NEVER the answer.
I remember one night toward the end of his Newcastle Mal had an interview with Dan lynch the Nebraska state senator. And I told my mother I hated lynch and walked into the bathroom. When I came out my mother said lynch had rudely contradicted Mel and you could tell by his look Mel didn't seem to like him either. Mel made my day.
I liked the way Mel talked about how Deb doing the news helped him do the news. Helped him collect his thoughts. Well compare that with Harry reasoner's attitude toward Barbara walters. We Nebraskans didn't realize how lucky we were to have a newsman like Mel. I sure miss him and Joe Kinney. I've lived in tenn a long time and I miss nebraska
Thank you guys for all the years of wonderful entertainment. Many times you bought smiles to people's faces when they had nothing else to smile about thank you so much you mean a lot to a lot of people.
Best radio show in the morning period. I listen everyday since I was stationed in omaha in 02. Hell, I listen to the podcast when driving or even sitting in my hotel when I go home to Chicago. Love these guys
Beloved Mel Mains. Besides being a great newscaster, he's the reason I got to stay up a little bit longer. What a thrill it was to see him out and about in real life! (Nice, brief glimpse at the young Bob Kerry, Sen. Richard Marvel and was that an appearance on the set of Calamity Kate?)
I met these guys at a 2006 Z-92 Hosted BBQ Party in Omaha. Bought a T-shirt, signed it, got to talk to them together with my father and my brother by my side. I will never ever forget that. Love you Todd n' Tyler, hope to visit you soon in the studio!!
I agree. He’s kind of a douche too. Always bashing Todd for his hobbies and activities. Always bashing every movie that’s not a drama of some sort. Hell even bashes the guys for going to the gym and what does he do? Watch football SMH. I love the show but I wish Tyler would turn it down a notch.
The Douchebag and Dementia show. For 4 hours Tyler is suffering from Orange man bad syndrome,. Tod is crying about how scared he is of the kung flu, he goes home and gets in the fetal position pissing and shitting himself hoping it dont get him since he's at high risk being 65. The big party show blows them away
The final show of last year didn't mention anything about Petey not being on the show this year. Whatever happened must have occurred during the holidays. But the guys never see each other when they're on vacation, so what could have happened? I'm thinking it had something to do with not really needing a sports guy since TnT talk enough sports as it is. But back when BW got fired, TnT at least mentioned it the next day. They could have given Petey a quick mention as to his disappearance. They just acted like he never existed.
Mel Mains was in our home every night. I grew up watching him broadcast the evening news. He was a trusted source of news and information for our family.
I am proud to say this man deserves this award...I worked for Craig in Nebraska for 5 years and learned a great deal about advertising and the broadcast industry! Congratulations, Craig! Norma Rizer
