Let your voice be known... and let Jerry be notified that his image is being used without his permission. I'm sure Jerry and the MDA don't want to be associated with this crap. It'll probably stay up until a cease & desist order is sent to Mike by Jerry's people. And by the way.... yesterday was Jerry's birthday... send him a belated B-Day message!

Freda was a big lefty back in the day, so I can't picture her trying to get DG to be a righty talker. I'm not sure of DG's political affiliation, though.

The stuff about Don in dcrtv in this case is someone making shit up about Don in the mailbag, based on his Twitter acct. He writes something about his wife watching FNC and this person writes on dcrtv that Don has become a Republican. Same person who read a Tweet about God and thus summed up than Doni was born again. Both were obviously off base, and not on the dcrtv front page where news is. They were random postings from an idiot in the mailbag. But to stay on the topic, can Buzz say suck my cock a few more times? shiver.

I agree, I don’t see the sports talk thing happening, however I can’t imagine Geronimo on WMAL! That would be hilarious (for about 5 minutes). After the cumulative amount of money "Geronimo Productions" has donated to the democratic party over the years, I’m sure he would not be taken seriously as a right-wing host. There are so many other options that haven’t been explored. Sirus/XM still has a small presence in DC, there are a lot of syndication companies that have offices here as well. Just because a company’s headquarters isn’t in DC doesn’t indicate that he couldn’t be stopping by for a preliminary meeting (for his convenience). And of course through the magic of ISDN he could broadcast from his home to any local/national market in the country a la the Greaseman or Mark Levin.

Mike O'Meara is in a recently released movie. Poop on all those that say he isn't successful!
If you missed Sunday's screening of "Ghosts Don't Exist" at the D.C. Independent Film Festival -- it's the first movie produced by Redskins star Chris Cooley and his brother, Tanner -- well, it may be a while before you'll see the low-budget horror film, despite the raves at the sold-out premiere. "Granted, the theater was full of friends and family," said director Eric Espejo.
The "micro-budget film," shot in 15 days last year for less than $250,000, includes cameos by both Cooley brothers, Lindsay Czarniak, and Mike O'Meara. Early reviews are mixed: D.C. Universe blog called it "One of the best, most original ghost stories I've seen in a long time," but City Paper was less kind: "The dialogue is corny enough to make George Lucas cringe, and the melodramatic score only reinforces the over-the-top acting."
Next? Espejo said they're talking to distributors, but the feature is unlikely to make it into theaters: "This is probably straight to DVD."
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/reliable-source/2010/03/chris_cooleys_movie_screens_at_1.html
IN CASE YOU SKIPPED OVER IT, PACKED THEATER.
Screw you HATERS!

He’s got you there! The royalty checks alone should keep the podcast running for another 10 years! By the time this hits the international market, we are talking tens of dollars! Let’s not forget the merchandising, you know a screwed businessman like O’Meara negotiated a piece of that. I wonder if the "Network Executive #1" action figure will have a realistic, kung fu taint and lifelike gin swilling action?

Geronimo on WTEM could work. He would not have to do a straight sports show, just talk Redskins. Don Imus was on 66WFAN in New York City for many successful years with zero sports. Tony K is on everyday and never talks sports. IMHO

I’ll never understand how he screwed that place (O’Meara’s) up so badly… I met people there for lunch quite a few times when the place first opened, it was always packed. Despite the crappy menu the pub did well in the evenings, especially on weekends. There had to be a ton of money coming in the door. I know there were “issues” with the city regarding liquor etc., but come on! How oblivious can one person be? It would be like someone handing him a national radio show, and within a span of a few months just blowing the whole thing by simply sitting on his ass.

You've heard the guy talk for years about his unrepentant gluttony, alcoholism, and smoking, right? Maybe you guys thought I was joking when I speculated openly about his expiring on the toilet. Shit -- this being St. Patty's, it may have happened already.
He had the restaurant back in the old D&MS days -- that means he was unavailable for anything restaurant-related for four hours every day while he was on the air. Then when you consider the time taken up with eating, drinking, watching what sometimes seemed to be every single show on television, AND sitting on the toilet, THEN factoring the time during which diabetic coma and/or virulent intoxication rendered him incapacitated . . . it's pretty obvious to me why he failed at running a restaurant. He didn't have time!

I can't tell you have many bars/restaurants I have been to over the years that have been packed but have failed. They usually fail because they comp too many people (in this case, Mike's friends), they fuck up on their liquor license (see Mike's ABC file), and they spend way too much money on capital improvements that they can NEVER recoup enough money on to be profitable (O'Meara's was okay, but I am sure Mike probably spent too much money on furniture or decor or something he probably didn't need to spend money on).

Did Miguel talk about how he and Don had glorious 6 way sex with Lisa Remedy, Al Molinaro, Dick Van Patten, Ailene Cunningham and with Rip Taylor watching one day at a Beverly Hills hotel back in 1997?
Miguels\ bar may have been taking in lots of money out front but a lot leaving the place at closing time. He needed someone like Dalton to fix up the mess. Funny I don't think any of the other bars in downtown Mannassas have closed down?

I don't know, but it sounds like Katie is doing the voiceover for the Hard Times commercials. Funny how Mike hasn't been able to get money out of those folks, but they have no problem getting a former member of his show to do the voice work for them. Hmmm.

I was pondering the use of music on the podcast… As for the commercial music and sound bites I think they can dodge that bullet. The worst thing that could come out of that would be a menacing C&D from a white shoe firm repping ASCAP. However production music companies are notoriously litigious, after all licensing fees are their bread and butter. This brings me to the crappy production music that was borrowed from jfk and that is now in use on the podcast. Does anyone recognize the music beds (intro for Buzz & bed for outro) as being part of a library (I don’t)? While it’s possible that it may be royalty free, I wonder…

There are relatively inexpensive libraries you can buy. But then again, if it is the same music from WJFK, I wouldn't be surprised if they just copied the tracks they used and are using them without the proper permissions. They obviously thought bandwidth was free when they started, so they probably assume licensing doesn't apply to them, either.

This is what I initially assumed when I first heard it. It sounds like something from a cheap, royalty free collection that you can purchase for perpetual use. I just wonder after witnessing the slew of complacent fuckups that have unfolded with the progression of the podcast. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was part of a library that requires a licensing agreement. I would be curious to know if anyone recognizes it.

Robb shouldn't even be using musical artist cuts/film audio clips to introduce Mike at the top of the show. That is clear copyright infringement and not considered Fair Use.... especially now that they are asking for money. These wet farts need to realize they don't have the same clearance rights they had when they were working at CBS. It'll catch up to them one day, they'll get caught, I guarantee it.

Heck, even iTunes warns of podcasts including copyrighted content:

"You can even publish your podcast to iTunes (as long as it's free of copyrighted material and overtly explicit content)..."
They are even violating Apple's terms of service.

You know, normally I don't like being a tattletale. But it seems wrong to me that Mr. Lewis' image (which was meant to help a charitable organization) is being used to help collect donations so that some ex-DJ (MOM) can collect money for his podcasts.
If his listeners want to donate money to him, that's up to them, but he shouldn't be using Jerry Lewis' image without his permission.

It looks like these guys did not even look into the legal & commercial side of this podcast. I was thinking about starting a podcast about a year ago... and actually thought briefly about these copyright and clearance issues back then. But now after listening to Mike's, I've decided to do more research on the copyright & royalty issues over the past couple days or so. Let me just say wow! This is a bigger issue than I thought! There are tons of webpages devoted to copyright issues & podcasts... As well as cases out there where artists & studios have taken people to court. Interesting.

It's not because of Jerry Lewis, who is a prick. It's because of MDA. I really don't like how MoM is totally ignoring MDA's rights. Why doesn't Mike just take a big shit on Jerry's Kids while he is at it.

So "David after the Dentist" has been viewed 54 million times. The kid has been featured in commercials, etc. The dad has sold T-Shirts. And this is what he says about the money he has made...
He would not say exactly how much the family has earned from the video but said it's in the "low six figures."
The low six figures. Over the course of a year. With an Internet sensation.
Yeah, this podcast idea is like minting gold!

So let's get this straight.... He can lift the audio of other people's works to use in his show and also hijack celebrities images without permission to beg for money, yet when it comes to his show you need to write them to get permission!?!?
Talk about hipocrisy!!!!!

I'd take that about as seriously as "We must now break for our stations down the line." Mike is so insecure about being reduced to a lowly podcaster that it just makes him feel better to do what he used to do when he had a real job: break for commercial, read legal disclaimers, pretend he has the FCC still watching over his back.
Here is a tweet from Don G today:
# Another prospective gig, another interview, another city. Thus far I've been to Houston, San Diego, DC, and today: Atlanta!
about 6 hours ago via web
That's what actual initiative looks like. Instead of jet-setting the country looking for a real radio gig Mike is still in bed at 3 in the afternoon nursing a brutal Jameson's hangover and planning his drinking for the rest of the vacation he is taking from his unemployment.

No shit. Granted, those markets don't want Mike. But, hell, he could probably get a gig in Wichita if he tried hard enough.

Exactly. It's always bothered me that they are using that pic of JL. Someone could see that and assume that Mike and the MDA are linked in some way -- and if they contribute to the podcasts they are also helping the MDA.
It's fraudulent in the worst possible way. Mike needs to take that pic down from the website pronto.

Initiative, any casual listener of the D&M show knows that’s what has separated Don & Mike all these years. The lack of it has put Mike in his current situation. But come on man, so you are not the self-starter that Don is, you’re not shopping yourself around, you are producing a languid podcast from your living room. Own it motherfucker! So you’ve underachieved as usual, at least make your "show" the best it possibly can be! Will it take him being flat broke to realize, hey maybe I should get off my ass and exert a little effort! Christ, do something Mike, if not for you then think about your kids!

I don't think the content of the RAW shows are the problem. I think the fact that he hasn't worked in radio since his non-compete expired four months ago is the problem.

On a whim I just went through iTunes and picked podcasts at random and listened to them. O'Meara's sticks out like a sore thumb when it comes to playing famous copyrighted stuff that he probably doesn't have the rights to. If you listen to Adam Carolla, Mark Maron, Greg Fitzsimmons, The Nerdist etc. They NEVER use copyrighted clips or they use what sounds like cheesy royalty-free bumper music to keep themselves legal. Meanwhile, O'Meara is playing clips from major artists for his intro bumper music, not to mention playing an audio clip from a movie EVERY DAY. The only podcasts that have clips like O'Mearas are podcasts that come from actual radio shows on actual broadcasting companies like CBS & Clear Channel that are licensed to use such material.
Is O'Meara trying to get sued or something???? LOL. If I was in Mike's position, I would buy some royalty-free stuff ASAP, and use it starting on Monday. It would suck to have legal bills.... AND not have a job!

Just out of curiosity (and because I can't find an explanation anywhere), why does everyone do some variation of putting an extra "b" on Rob's name. I constantly see him called Rob(b) or Robb, or Robbbbbbbbbbbbb. is that the way that he spells it? Or is it some sort of inside joke that I missed?

How many men do you know who are named Rob spell it "Robb"? I know four Rob's and NONE of them have ever put that b on their name. It's lame and milktoast funny. Just like Rob(b). Here's some more brilliant insight to the comic genius that is Rob(b) Spewak:

Ok, Warhawk, thanks for the response. I don't think that you fully understood what I was asking. I'm not saying that spelling "Rob" as "Robb" is normal. I take it from your post that ROB HIMSELF spells it that way? Is that where it comes from?
To answer your question about the spelling, I don't know ANY Robs who spell it that way. That's why I assumed that you all were doing it as a goof. I just couldn't figure out what it was supposed to mean. If Rob spells it that way then he's a doofus and deserves to be heaped with scorn. I just didn't know the origin of the extra "r".
Maybe "Robb" is the shortened form of "robber" or "robbery" since he's a thief of joy.

The extra b is for boob. Man boob to be more specific.

Oh my god, are they BOTH wearing open-toed "mandals" with blue jeans? That is about the most repulsive look that two fat guys could pick. The only thing that would make the look more nausea inducing would be shirts tucked in but unbuttoned to the waist and gold chains with big medallions.
Seriously, dudes. That's not a fashion faux pas, that's a fucking crime against nature. Why would ANYONE want to see your fat, hairy, pasty white toes?

Your engraved name tags should arrive at the store within the next few days, we will be training you on how to run the front registers shortly. First, we need you to stock the feminine hygiene aisle... and be sure to greet every customer you encounter! Once again... Welcome aboard!

The last guy in line looks like he is thinking about stealing that DvD he holding or is possibly in the process of stealing one with his other hand like a magician.
The lady in front of him is trying her damndest to not turn around and see who exactly is the "source" of the foul stench she is enduring.
The lady infront of her is looking at the cashier like "damn shawty got it goin' on".
And check out the China-man's wallet. I mean gimme a fuckin' break. Rainbows, are you serious?
Lastly look at the old hag in the charcoal grey quilted northern jacket. See how she holda the line up scanning her reciept to make sure she recieved the 10% instant credit on her months supply of Depends adult diapers and Ensure liquid dietary supplements and all the exlax money could buy. I find it hillarious how the cashier is trying her hardest to push the other orders through and not pay attention to the lady. Look how the customers are standing with wallets open as to say "please take our money and let us GO!".
Yeah Mike, your podcast and this Old Bag have a couple things in common. 1, you both have no consideration for other peoples precious TIME and MONEY. And 2, you both are REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING!

Less than 800 purchases of Mr Omearas last shot at ringing a dime out of his devoted (?!) fans base. Thats not a lot of dough. I believe more copies were illegally copied that purchased. Bad financial move.
They've sold 762.

$8K split four ways is $2K each for four months of work. That comes to $500 a month or $6K for the year. Now, keep in mind there appears to be a "business manager" and some other support staff in there. Plus, assume that Mike is going to insist on being reimbursed for what he put into bandwidth costs first. That means everyone except for Mike and possibly Rob(b) will get shit for their efforts. And even at that, Mike will probably still be in negative territory on this venture.
Good work, fellas. I'm glad you have spent so much time and effort just to prove what the "losers" on this forum have been telling you all along.

I think they're at a point now where they need to stop before the hole gets any deeper. They need to pull the plug quick. But, if they stop doing the show in the next week or so, Mike is going to end up looking like a thief to the fans that bought the Raw episodes and the people that donated money. It'll look like he stole their money and ran. His fan base will be pissed. Mike will probably never do a final episode for ego reasons. He won't want to admit that he failed. One day when people go to the website to hear the show, there will probably be a message on it that says the show was cancelled due to it not economically viable... Or the whole damn website will be removed with no explanation whatsoever.
After doing my own research on podcasting over the past few days, it's OBVIOUS to see that virtually no research was done by them BEFORE this venture started. I wonder when they'll put up their audio equipment on eBay? And how long until Mike takes Oscar to Judge Judy and tries to sue him because he actually lost money on his idea? LOL

If podcasting is such a money maker, why did Adam Carolla, with his "ACE Network," basically kick his to the curb for the immediate future while he films his TV pilot for NBC? He has had some guest hosts come in, but essentially the thing is on hiatus until he wraps the pilot, which is the REAL money making venture? And guess what happens to the "ACE Network" if Carolla's show gets picked up?
The best case scenario for podcasts is to be an income neutral promotional tool. The bandwidth costs versus revenue generating potential is just too out of whack right now to make them profitable. That could change in time, but not with Mike's approach of trying to employ six or seven people full-time and recording them every day for a mere 800 paid downloads.

Funny. They took down Ron's post, but not one of the responses...

Though the image of Rob in his night shirt with a hand full of jizz is a cost mentally I may never recover from…
Should be a monthly bit…

There is a common thread throughout all the comments about RAW.
1) I laughed so hard I, cried
2) " " shat myself
3) " " peed my pants
4) " " went #3
5) " " couldn't stop listening
6) " " each proceeding episode was funnier than the previous show
7) " " didn't get charged enough
8 " " they should charge 3 times $10.99
9) " " I listened to Raw 3 times
Most of these comments are "feeders" they planted trying to suck all their "basement of the science building" nerd fuckniks into buying their show.
It's an embarrassment to all true Don and Mike fans and Mike should be ashamed. I'm sure Tom Gavin has listened three times but it's not nice taking advantage of the special needs people.
It will be interesting to see what their next move will be. I doubt they made enough cash to buy the RV for their road adventure thats on the back burner.
Maybe Randy Quaid will sell him his.

Hell, they won't even be able borrow one in exchange for an RV dealer sponsorship. And what ever happened to their vehicle wrap contest? That just kind of disappeared. No companies want to give away free stuff for an ad spot on a podcast nobody listens to.... especially in this economy. And what ever happened to the restaurant ads? The one in Sacramento & El Pollo Primo? No return on investment I guess. Not surprised. More sponsors will probably
pull out as well. I'd love to see what kind of amateur legal language these sponsor deals are written in. I'm sure there are plenty of unintentional gaps O'Meara or Marc left in these agreements that leave them exposed to all kinds of litigation if a sponsor decides to turn around and sue them. They're probably written on old CBS stationary! LOL

So what's the line on podcasts coming to an end? I say bite dust by June. Did they do a business plan before they started up the podcasts? They didn't factor correctly the cost of bandwidth? Did the Big O talk Miguel into doing the podcasts?
At least Robb can go to Iowa

Anyone with common sense would pull the plug after the anemic RAW numbers. But we are talking about Mike, here, so odds are he will keep talking into his computer until the repo men arrive.

Don't care much for present WJFK. Barely listen at all. Too me the Junkies always lazy about keeping up with the sports knowledge. And now that they're handcuffed by station management on topics to venture into they seem bored. Anyways back to O'Meara, just ain't thick enough as Don use to say. seems like a little more effort towards the podcasts wouldn't hurt and not the whining stream of consciousness carp O'Meara now doing. Ship has sailed start digging up voiceover work or go find a medium market and get a dull radio job pushing buttons and playing mp3's. You know something incredibly dull like the Tom Kent show. And whats up with Don Geronimo willing to go far from D.C./ beloved Ocean City area for a job? Why not do what the Greaseman does and do something from his batcave. Surely the KCJJ station would pick it up.

I know you jest. But..
Actually Houston TX is ranked 7th 12+ which is higher than DC ranked 8th 12+. These numbers are pre-Katrina so I'm not sure how the refugee influx changed those numbers since. DC and New Orleans are in a continual battle for the annual coveted "murder capital of the US" award. Houston did see a murder spike after Katrina so population may be down a bit.
Anywho...Not sure who Dons talking to down there but Houston would be a good market to land with syndication possibilities in the future.
Texas, through state govt. fiscal restraint and maintaining a positive business environment (lower taxes) is the fastest growing economic area of the country.Houstons doing well, San Antonio's going gang busters and their great places to live. This translates into stronger media advertising dollars in healthier markets.
Possible gigs KIKK 650 or KILT610 am CBS affiliates, (News and Sports Talk)
Newsradio 740-KTRH covers the Houston area.This radio station is owned by Clear Channel Communications Inc..(Bankrupt, Doubtful)
I'm pretty sure if he moves to Houston it will be for a CBS affiliate. This could explain him dropping hints of a possible return to air before October.

End by June? I think you're being too generous. I'm gonna predict within the next 2-4 weeks, if not sooner. Business plan? Nah. Podcasting was Oscar's idea and it's obvious he forgot to do his research. Although he could probably care less if it fails... he already has a job anyway. One of these days the guys are going to get tired of it, or not be able to afford to drive over to Mike's house... especially Oscar. Just a guess, but he now probably wants to chill out on his lunch and decompress from work instead of playing "Mike-Pretends-He-Has-A-Radio-Show" everyday.
"And on that note, we'll take a break for our affiliates along the line..." located in these markets:

I agree that the end will come sooner rather than later. The whole RAW thing was a test to see if this podcast thing is economically viable. I don't know what they were expecting (all 15,000 downloaders paying??), but it sounds like reality is finally biting them in the ass. I wouldn't be shocked at all if the thing wraps at the end of March. There is really no reason to continue the charade at this point.

The writing is on the wall, they are well over 90 days into this venture and NOT ONE affiliate has signed a deal. That should tell Mike something right there. There is no need to waste any more time on it. The podcast is actually counterproductive to them now more than ever... harming rather than helping. It is taking up time and money that could be used on job hunting. I'm sure we'll hear some nose-growing BS lies on Monday's show about how successful Raw was and how they plan to do it again in the summer, blah, blah, blah. Whatever.

I appreciate your passion, Mike. However, you're wrong. You see, you WILL be going SOMEWHERE when the Sheriffs Dept. shows up to drag you out of your bank owned house. I don't know where, but SOMEWHERE.

You should check out Robbay over at the KCJJ RAW page(hey RAW that sounds familiar) you get to see Robb dancing a lot.
Boy Robb, you're getting kind of big. Maybe I can help you out with a diet?

Actually, you didn't survive the crap. That's why you are unemployed.

Wouldn't it be funny if Mike ended up as a bus boy in the pub he used to own? Sounds about right.
Actually, I have a neighbor who used to be a senior IT guy. He started his own consulting business for a year or so, but had to give it up because he wasn't making any money. Being in his late 40s, he spent close to a year trying to get a new IT job. He is currently working "nights" on a temporary basis, but won't tell me what he is doing. I have a sinking feeling the guy is either working for Geek Squad or on a a Help Desk somewhere.
Even in this market, things are tough. Of course, in radio you are pretty much fucked if you are in your 50s and unemployed, so...

Actually, there are a few ways Mike can make money..and they are no more a scam than this podcast he is inflicting on the public. A few years ago I posted some ads in newsapers about Postal Jobs. When people would call I would sell them study guides to prepare for the exam. I made a profit but moved onto to other ventures.
Perhaps this is an option for Mike. Though with the state of the USPS that seems to be a dying market as well. He could always start his own payday company. Rob could be his collection department.

Hi Everyone:
After following Don and Mike for 20 years and enjoying this MOM Fairfax thread for almost two years, it has been an amazing story how far Mike was fallen in his professional level. He's a guy who was kicking around at small stations and went from doing voice over work at WAVA to literally "falling into" being paired with Don G. for the Morning Zoo. The combination clicked and he rose to fame and fortune. In such a short period of time, he has been reduced to doing podcasts and worrying about this FFU website. Also, his personal pride will lead him to losing everything.
Out of the blue this idea hit me the other day - the only way Mike can rebound and make his way back on top is to take his downward spiral story to one of the major networks and get a reality show. To get this show, he would have to admit that he has hit rock bottom, losing his house, and that everyone posting on the FFU web site is right. I believe that it would be interesting story and funny also. It could show his struggle in forcing his boring show on the public. It has worked for other celebrities that seemed to be losing popularity.
In my opinion, this would be the only way Mike can rebound and stay out of bankruptcy. What does everyone think about this idea? Do you think Mike is smart enough to understand how comical his life has become?

I'll guarantee you Mike will try one more time to milk the pay per podcast thing. He'll start pimping it today. It will have some sort of a twist most likely in its purchasing logistics. It will be fun to here his take on how everything went during his well deserved break.
