yeah, you're right. I've been listening for less than a year and in that time I've noticed a marked decrease in yuks-per-hour. What's up with that Phil?? I can only imagine how funny his earlier stuff must've been. Too bad.
: And how many of us agree that Phil's recent
: tendency to have insufferable
: conversations with Janice the Canadian
: about how they 'study comedy' belays an
: obvious attempt to excuse himself from
: actually trying anymore? That's it Phil,
: just mail it in, give up the gag after
: every bit, and pray to God that the masses
: that don't give a crap if you 'study
: comedy' find you amusing enough to compete
: with the Skippy and Franks you used to
: satarize but now aspire to.
: damn, was that too harsh?

: I bought a backstage pass. It's 7 bucks, no
: big
: deal. Chump change. And I love listening
: to Phil Hendrie. But you know what? There
: is only enough material on Phil's Official
: Site to keep you listening for a few
: weeks. Then you'll run out of clips,
: unless you want to keep listening to the
: same ones over and over and over. 90% of
: the clips on his site are 5 to 6 minutes
: long. Go take a look if you don't believe
: me.
: Other than the 5 minute long tiny nuggets of
: comedy gold, there are a few dozen clips
: about 30 minutes long and the infamous
: 30-day archive.
: You can get free live streams of the Phil
: Hendrie show all over the internet. 30 day
: archive? I'd rather listen to him on the
: radio.
: What I want are the full classic clips, the
: true "comedy gold". This simply
: CANNOT BE FOUND on Phil's site.
: For all of you newer fans out there, Phil
: used to be alot funnier. He was downright
: hilarious. I have a little chuckle once in
: a while when listening these days, but
: those old clips leave my sides aching. He
: was a genius. There is no other way of
: putting it.
: MyCrappySite had many of these classic clips
: available to the masses before Phil
: Hendrie and Premiere Radio shut it down. I
: hope that you, the reader of this post,
: saved these clips. Because you sure as
: hell won't find them at the Official Site.
: Oh, I'm sure tiny bits and pieces of them
: may eventually show up on Phil's Site (in
: their new and improved 5 minute length).
: Phil left MyCrappySite open long enough to
: get the material back that he never
: bothered to record in the first place. BUT
: YOU WILL NEVER AGAIN hear the entire
: clips.
: If this is ok with you, great. Go have fun on
: Phil's site. I'm cancelling my BackStage
: Pass, there is nothing left there for me.
