As much as I have bitched about Houston Sports Media, my favorite show of all time was The Blitz. The Blitz was Fred Faour and AJ Hoffman on 97.5.
When I first learned about these guys, there were two things I remembered.
1. I was blogging with HMW (Houston Media Watch) so I automatically listened to rip and hate them
2. I couldn't distinguish one from the other's voice.
Back when they were in the 12-2p slot, I listened expecting to go in but I was like "these are real dudes". I listened for a few more weeks and eventually begin interacting with the show, "these guys are solid".
What was really dope about their show, both guys were from Houston Proper. They were not guys guys Googling Houston history, they were here for it all the bullshit. Not to mention, Fred is piped into Houston from being born here, University of Houston alumn, Houston Chronicle editor. It was almost like listening to Joe Jackson tell you about the Jackson Five. Fred was/is the plug.
I quickly begin telling my Twitter (X) Friends about The Blitz. I was telling all of my friends on Twitter, these cats are real dudes:
- they are not Houston fanboys
- they talk about sexy women
- they talk about Television and Movies
- They love alcohol
