A Cooking Show Starring Drunk Chefs and Late-Night Munchies? The Ticket's Onto Something.
Thursday evening The Hardline spent a segment tossing around ideas for a cooking show. Sure it has nothing to do with sports, but that's nothing new for you P1s out there. Mike Rhyner brought to the table a cooking show based on headlights. Yes, headlights. Particularly on a sufficiently breasted f ... More >>

From 1971, Supreme Court Justice Douglas's Thoughts on DPD's Raid of Burns's Dallas Notes
That copy of Dallas Notes you see above was loaned to me yesterday by one Mike Rhyner, who, as it turns out, was a contributor to the late Stoney Burns's Buddy magazine way back when. Its pages are brittle; it falls apart when you just look at it. Contained within, on Page 3, is a story headlined ... More >>

Today's KZEW Blast From the Past: LaBella and Rody (and Mike Rhyner) on Trial!
Gosh, it's been ... what ... four whole days since the last mention of The Zoo? But I can't help myself: While scouting the YouTube for something wildly unrelated, I came across this just-posted flashback courtesy one "Walter from Waco" (oh, the memories): an old KZEW-FM TV ad starring Johns LaBella ...

If You've Ever Wanted to Host a Show on The Ticket, Here's Your Big Break. Seriously.
Whilst combing through the Internets for an Unfair Park item, I just came across this job posting: "Host Ticket Top 10 (Full-time) Sportsradio 1310 The Ticket." No kidding?

Celebrating the Rather Random 36th Anniversary of the Launch of KZEW-FM
Been feeling awful nostalgic for KZEW in recent days -- maybe it has to do with the latest eff-you over on 93.3; maybe it stemmed from catching a vintage clip last week on The Ticket, where someone had dug up Mike Rhyner talking media-league softball way back when. So, of course, I visited The Zo ... More >>

Mike Rhyner actually drained this 3-pointer. The rest of Team Ticket's night was considerably suckier. One player wore low-top running shoes and - duh - sprained his ankle. A guy in only a diaper was escorted out by security. And, in the end, the teen-aged girls reduced the mid ... More >>
