THRERE'S SPECIAL MENTION OF TKC IN A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE IMPENDING TOY TRAIN STREETCAR DISASTER IN BROOKSIDE!!!
Take a look . . .
Listening to Yael mutter under his breath is my special treat for tonight . . .
But there is also a lot of good conversation about the Toy Train that's worth a mention . . . Mary O'Halloran seems to take the Jackson County vaporware plan seriously. Yael says Brooksiders will LOVE the streetcar in about 10 years and Woody warns about taxes.
All things considered . . . Great stuff and A GREAT MANY THANKS TO AWESOME RUCKUS HOST MIKE SHANIN for the mention on his program that is DEFINITELY worth consideration tonight . . .
If brookside is smart, they'll defeat this thing before its gets started.
ReplyDeleteThe streetcar isn't going to go through Brookside. Count on it.
ReplyDeleteFael be trippin on acid......
ReplyDeleteI like the TCK logo!
ReplyDelete"I am a somebody because I was mentioned on Ruckus".
ReplyDeletePlease.
Mike Shanin's RUCKUS
ReplyDelete...a weekly food for thought fight over the news of the day and the trends of the times.
Hello Mike!! Sporting a bowtie this week!
Friends of KCI
Gwen jokes it's a defeat for Mark VanLoh. It's a win for the Friends of KCI, and a win for the city. Yael says the Friends of KCI was always a joke. Yael proceeds to trash VanLoh. Mary reminds that the Friends of KCI represent the people of Kansas City. Woody welcome back! He wishes to reassure Yael that his opinion on the incompetence of airport management is correct. (a rare consensus between left and right!)
Mike suggests hiring Clay Chastain as a consultant...joke joke.
Brookside Streetcar NIMBY Moment
Mary reports Brookside is nirvana! Is the streetcar plan viable if it doesn't expand south through Brookside? It's a massive cost. At this time Mike highlights TKC's thoughts on the subject and Yael begins hyperventilating as his voice rises 2 octaves! Yael guarantees everyone that he can see 10 years into the future with accuracy. Mike repeats his question, will other parts of the city have similar concerns to the streetcar as Brookside residents are voicing? Woody points out that 90% of rush hour traffic moves on freeways and wouldn't be impacted by commuter rail.
Kemper Arena
Woody admits he doesn't have a clue how this will be resolved. Mike suggests solving the Plaza rowdy youth problem by having them use Kemper as an urban youth activity center! (watch where you step, kids) Yael says it's nice to have options for the "horsey-crowd". Gwen pretends to know something about agriculture/animal husbandry. Mary reports that bulldozing everything is expensive, and looks to the amateur sports model.
KS Roberts/Wolf Senatorial Race
Mike asks if the Roberts non-residency and Dr. Wolf X-ray exposure will matter in the race. Yael hates on Kansans! Mike suggests Mary run as the Democratic candidate in this race, which elicits howls from the panel! Mary asks why that would be a silly idea, as Woody falls out of his chair! Mary recalls Pat Roberts as a terrible interview guest back during her talk radio days. Gwen reports Wolf is a poor interview as well.
ROASTS & TOASTS (bouquets or brickbats)
Gwen Toasts the Friends of KCI & the City Council for recent compromise. Woody Toasts State Sen. Maria Chappelle Nadal (sp?) of St. Louis. Yael Roasts KC's Public Safety Commission. Senator O'Halloran Toasts the President of AT&T Kansas for comments to reject the Freedom to Discriminate bill. Mike Toasts Randy Miller for returning to the airwaves for one week, and then quitting! Also thanks to Mayor James for inspiring his bowtie selection.
Ruckus returns on March 2nd.
Senator O'Halloran = Bull Shuckus!
nice one, on point
ReplyDeletehere is the bottom line....if you live to be mention on Rukus...your life is Fael....Tony
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone watch KCPT anymore? It's programming (except during fundraising) is just tedious.
ReplyDeleteyou perform a terrific service, 929
ReplyDeleteShannon looked like a old sock dude....whats his name? Oh yeah...Sock Dude,,,,,,,,Jason Grill...lmfao. Speaking of fags.
ReplyDeletebow tie for Shanin? that is FTW!
ReplyDeleteI had to take some asprin and go to bed after watching it. I agreed with Gwen Grant and Mary O almost the entire show.
ReplyDeleteJesus...
Tony's CK???????? WTF?????? stupidity reigns in CK!!! Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTony looks stoned and about to bust out in a set of reefer giggles.
ReplyDeleteBut we all know he is a good boy and don't do the weed thing. Maybe it's a Twinkie rush?
9:29 - you are my hero. It's 12:50 am and I just tuned over to 19-1 and they are repeating the Ruckus episode. Your analysis is dead-on. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteIf this madness ever makes it out of Downtown, Toy Train should run east from Plaza down Cleaver, then turn and run south on Rockhill. It'll go by The Nelson AND UMKC which will make the Crossroads UMKC art school whatever happy. Brookside does not need nor want it.
ReplyDeleteNo more Sly, No more street car.
ReplyDeleteIt's time to put this toy train to a stop!
No more Yael as well.
ReplyDeleteDoes Yael continue on Ruckus to beat on the city council for the murder rate because they don't talk about it enough? Yael is so full of shit he doesn't realize it's going to take action by the police and not talk by politicians to solve the problem. A good portion of these murders are "Hatfield & McCoys"-type of murders, that is revenge killings. The cops are the ones to figure out a way to solve these types of problems.
ReplyDelete9:29: Thanks. You save me a half hour's aggravation every week!
ReplyDeleteI think you would be a better looking guy without the facial hair. I bet you have a nice face under the beard. I didn't know what you looked like till today.
ReplyDeleteMoney quote >>>>>> "Jermaine Reed will yammer on about anything and really say nothing."
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Finally, something I can agree with Yael on; although I've been saying this at least since 2011.
Mary is always biting at Tony's balls.
ReplyDeleteHave your attorney threaten to sue if they use you to pimp their stupid show again.
