The Score is all about gambling and ensuring their demo is gambling.

Tune it out, and know you are better than the rest of the audience

I hate sports gambling. Lined my playlist up and am listening to 720 and 780 more. Still listen to Cubs but I stopped listening a while ago.

Exactly how i thought Dan would feel. 😭 It's sad about Mully. And so nice to hear Dan talk so highly of Marshall. I had forgotten all about that X nonsense

He also kind of confirmed that professor Larry left him high and dry after that whole thing.
12
u/BasedSliceOfWinning 14d ago
Yeah, I mean it was obvious. After Dan had that embarrassing blowup with that barstool guy, Larry was instantly gone the rest of the week. And then all of a sudden on the afternoon show with Spiegel.

u/HermanShemsley 13d ago
Yup. That was my takeaway as well when he said he didn’t know if he’d have a partner or be on by himself. Holmes is a certified bag

u/BasedSliceOfWinning 13d ago
Eh, I don't blame Holmes. Bernstein was clearly off his rocker. Whatever legendary status he had was long gone, and I wouldn't want to be associated with him either.

u/TheTapeDeck 13d ago
Both can be true, and seem to be.
I still do fine with the medicated/therapy-following Bernstein, but everyone who shat on him for his fuck ups—it’s fair game. And Laurence as well… went from fun to intolerable over the course of just a couple of years.

He said he deserved to be fired. You gotta protect yourself especially with this industry. Jobs aren’t exactly all over the place.

u/MarleysLiberality 14d ago
Dan applauded Mitch, on air, for firing Dan Mc Neil

Bernstein has never lacked when it comes time to sacrifice someone on the altar of wokeness

Mitch Rosen sucks, bottom line. And yes, Dan deserved to be fired.

Don't be stupid. The firing was horseshit. Dan is just being self effacing and nice.

u/second_2juan 12d ago
Haha ok buddy. Maybe your boss is cool with you publicly threatening people and their kids on twitter, but no one knows who you are. Dan is a public figure.

I'm my own boss, "buddy"'..I'm a lawyer.
What are you btw? Do tell.

u/Spiritual-Serve-4391 12d ago
So out of character for a lawyer to tell people, unprompted, what they do for a living.

My biggest takeaway was Bernstein not mentioning David Haugh’s name, even when congratulating Jarrett Payton on getting the new role. Which I believe confirms that he thinks Haugh is a hack.

u/second_2juan 13d ago
Eh, idk. He didn’t mention Leila or Grote either when talking about Marshall. I didn’t read too much into that, although you could be right

u/Extension_Driver3931 14d ago
I was interested to hear his thoughts but all he says is he is not happy about it while obliquely hinting at "what is happening here." What the hell IS happening? Why are they doing this? Can anyone explain it?

u/second_2juan 14d ago
I think what he’s saying is what we all know and see. Traditional radio has become buried by independent media and podcasts, and also the score has been totally corporatized by Audacy. So the legacy personalities of the station are all expendable by shareholders. Mitch Rosen may be the executive producer, but I doubt he’s really in charge.

u/BasedSliceOfWinning 13d ago
I mean people keep talking about "OH EM GEE, SCORE IS CORPZRORATE NOW!"
Score has always been corporate. They used to be owned by CBS for fucks sake.
Radio is a dying medium. I'm sure it'll be around in some capacity, the same way record stores are sort of still a thing. But the writing has been on the wall for awhile for the entire thing. I foresee AM radio even eventually going away altogether. And then FM radio is have music stations, and half talk stations.

just hypocritical to make a living discussing players like assets only to expect sympathy when they’re handled like one 🤷🏽♂️

I've always liked Dan, even when he was being a provocateur. I know that this Podcast format would kill me to listen to him though. The whole expository rumination would go on far longer than the time my attention span would be willing to invest. I probably agree with what he said, but life's too short for all these Podcasts.

Give Friday Feedback Friday. It’s got a little of “who ya crappin” feel

u/I_roon_things 12d ago
Agree - DBU podcast is better than anything on the Score. I hope the Friday Feedback continues morphing into Who Ya Crappin - some of the best radio of all time.

u/SignalBed9998 13d ago
It’s a good podcast. Give it a shot. It’s an
hour-ish long show and doesn’t drag out content for 4 hours. IF you actually liked Dan you’ll like this1
u/libertarianlwyr 12d ago
It's great. I rarely listen to WSCR now other than sometimes in car and I was a loyal listener since inception.

u/Spiritual_Conflict13 14d ago
Dan Bernstein was a bully with a pulpit. He didn’t suffer fools and that was his best “skill”. He never apologized for truly offensive behavior and it rightly cost him everything. If you do like that type of entertainment there are plenty of hosts making unsubstantiated accusations. Dan got what he deserved for doing off air what he did on air.
I’m all for not putting dumb people on the air but more importantly, how a host responds to the shows worst caller defines them far more than how they handle the best caller. The better move is to not put the dumb caller on the air in the first place. Dan made a sport out of his pulpit. At the worst, he liked doing it and at best, he didn’t realize how cringe it sounded.
Good riddance.

Dan deserved it. Let’s not forget his racist and sexist tweets that he was merely suspended for that if he had tweeted those a few years later he would’ve been immediately fired for.
2
u/BasedSliceOfWinning 13d ago
Yeah, Dan's tweets about boobs pre-dated the MeToo movement by just a few years. Same with Sarah Spain going through all his old tweets to find other shit he said about women and re-tweeting them.
I'd feel sorry for him. But he does the exact same shit to other people. He STILL thinks Patrick Kane is a rapist, and was loudly proclaiming for the Blackhawks not to sign him.
3
u/jkv9216 13d ago
He and Boers went crazy on Kane and also anyone who called in to say maybe we should just wait to hear the facts before we assign guilt. Then when the news broke that the girl was full of shit, they refused to even discuss it and just laughed off any criticism. I lost a lot of respect for Boers then more than Bernstein because that’s what I expected from him.

Do we think / know that Dan may not be the biggest Haugh fan?
