I've listened to the Buzz for about the last week or so and here's what I've noticed... specifically about their new co-host Nicole Camawhatever the hell her name is...

1. She is a whore for every place she shops. I kid you not, any chance she gets she's pluggin the places she frequents. Her salon, her bank, her grocery store etc. I've never seen anyone more desperate to get free sh!t.

2. She's not funny. As hard as she tries to be, she fails miserably every time.

3. She talks too damn much. Last I checked, it wasn't the Nelson, Terry and Nicole show. Teri Ann knew when to chime in, Nicole pointlessly tries to take over breaks only to be put in her place because she tends to open her mouth without giving what she's about to say much thought.

While the show is lacking in a lot of ways, it is very obvious she wasn't hired for her on-air ability. Which is a lil' sad, especially for those of you actively trying to make it in radio, cuz eventually you'll get canned by someone who wins a contest, which she did at some point, or is more fun to look at at five in the morning.

*cough*

do anybody tune in to the buzz

when will kool 1059 have live jocks on airwaves

How could Nelson & Terry let Nicolle replace Teri Ann? Nicolle has no talent as a radio personality, and she's ruining the show!

As a former fan of The Morning Zoo, I gotta say The Nelson and Terry show is one of the most painfully bad morning shows in Portland. Nicole needs to shut her yapper because she is driving listeners away by the minute. Is she gettig paid to endorse these shops because I feel like I'm listening to infomercials when I hear hear yap about these products and stores. SOmeone please put a muzzle on Nicole!

Ever since Dan Persigal left the buzz, that station has been TANKING!!!!!!

It seems to me that most of the people on here that post over and over are bitter people with either no radio career or currently very unhappy people with their job. The morning show on the Buzz is better than it’s ever been and the ratings will prove it. It is always tough to add a new person to a show and expect and instant gel of personalities. But Nicolle adds a lot and I expect nothing but success from the change. Now you all can stop crying about how you think the show sucks and maybe you should go out and get a job! Dust off that 1986 resume you have and send it to some market and get yourself a job so that you can stop wasting your time here posting over and over and over complaining about what is bad about radio station you wished you had a job at!
LATE!

Oooh, burn!

Yeah that one stung...I guess I can relate though. I remember when I was makin 28k a year...I had a big chip on my shoulder too. A lil' more brown on your face and you'll get that full time paycheck before ya know it.

Until then, keep grindin out that rent money demetri, its noble work your doin.

Who's got the lighter...

Demetri thinks he's hot shit though when he's the guest "celebrity" DJ at the Asian Garden Bar in Beaverton. LOL! That place is a hole-in-the-wall dive and he walks around like he's a rockstar!

Hey! The Asian Garden is my neighborhood hole-in-the-wall dive, thank you very much, and they pour a good drink. Dis DJs all you want, but leave the Garden out of it!

Demetri: they will never be happy.

You have to play politician and only answer or comment on the subjects of your choosing.

Good point, Demetri. If you're in radio, your station is the best - period. If not, management can always replace you with someone who does think so.

I'd be happy, Kent, if talent was still selected on the basis of how they SOUND.

That has to be one of the most immature and ignorant things I have read on here, microbrew. How do you know she doesn't sound exactly like what Nelson & Terry wanted in a sidekick?

Micro brew...
I can't help being a "Rockstar" (thanks for the plug on one of our songs on our station by the way) when I go to hang with my friends at the Asian Gardens to have a good time and some jackass goes up there and kills the mood with some whack karaoke to mmmbop by Hansen! Anyone could become a "Rockstar" microbrew after your lame performance. Oh..microbrew..."Saved By The Bell" called..they want there whack ass comedy back!
LATE

My fav micro brew by the way is the Widmer Broken Halo.

Demitri, Id watch what you say, Entercom will fire your ass so quickly your head will spin. By the way are you that prepubesent screetch I hear after every NON funny joke that nelson makes. Is that your TITLE "laugh at every joke nelson makes, whether it is funny or not??
Between Demitri's fake laugh tracks and Niclole whoring out shopping places over the air, that show will be gone by the end of this year.

Thanks for the advice Bunsofsteel. When does the new workout video come out?
And OUR show will be gone by the end of the year?? *laughs*
Wow...
You must have done some extensive research to come up with that BS.
Keep it up...the cardboard sign that is!
LATE

Listen cant we all just get along?

Discuss radio, have fun and dont be mean..(yes it is fun but dont do it.) Demetri the cardboard sign joke was good.. nice..

Bunsofsteel,
Did you listen to the show when Terri Ann was on it? She defined the term "laugh track", and a very annoying laugh made it even worse.

I personally like the show. Dr. Doug & Skippy and Nelson & Terry are my favorite 2 local FM morning shows... although I listen to The Herd and KXL in the morning most of time.

long live the "chain smoking fireman in training" former producer Jason Parrish.

Is nichole really that bad? At least she is out there trying to make stuff happen. She goes out and does leg work for the show. Thats something significant right there isn't it?

ALSO, my advise for people that don't like nelson and terry, or dr. doug and skippy... Or The play house... or adam carolla...

Spend less time trash talking folks on pdxradio and more time doing production or getting your air work togeather into a decent tape... If Portland's morning radio shows are so terrible.. then do something about it. Get hired to do mornings in town.

It seems like a solid idea to do the best job you can everyday and really care about your work. Its a lot more fulfilling than being jaded and pissed off about all the hard work and sacrifice it takes to be in this line of work. Do you care about radio? Or do you care about your ego?

Demetri trys hard on the show, busts his ass everyday and is a genuine dude. Its hard to trash on that.

And... before you start trashing my meager wages and my performance. Think about where you are in your career and where you would like to be. Do you stick it out every day like Demetri or do you bitch and cry about where you "DESERVE" to be?

Ness... you are right, jason parrish was/is the man.

I like bringing others down because its easy, and usually very effective.

It also helps my career A TON!

Back to the subject: Nicole is an entertaining person, if only based on the energy she injects into the show (which sorely needs it). She may not be a slick "radio talent," but most experience radio folks who do great with news/jocking/commercial spots are boring in the talk format. Shopping fetish aside, she's a good addition.

That's true, but if she is good only as a jock (I don't know, I haven't heard her), why would anyone put her on a morning show that's basically a talk show. It's kind of like entering a VW bus in a race then saying "hey, it's not meant to be fast". Well, then don't race it, right?

this show is not as bad as i thought it was going to be. just my humble opinion
