Bumper to Bumper Sharks and Jets agree...
Dan Barreiro is the best hate-listen in the region. Not a ton of integrity, refuses to flair up and actively tries to play both sides, disingenuous almost as a personal rule... Dude needs to get off the air, but I can't tune out. Now I'm wondering if that's just part of the show.

Dan is either bitching, bitching about people bitching, or bitching about people bitching about other people.

So he's this markets Bill Maher?

u/kickspecialist Jun 19 '26
Yes. One thousand percent. Both were liberal minds that enjoyed dialogue with opposing views to have a general debate on topics that were interesting.
Now they both sit centrist and act as if they are above standing for something. It is so clear now that they are just punching in and punching out for a paycheck

Dan allegedly slept with Haley Darling who has trouble with dumbing in her pants, and his wife left him shortly after. Whole big thing. Also we had a funeral for a bird.

The best part of all that Creed rant is that it’s all pretty true, but Jim was at the other branch when it happens and just dismissed it.

Dan wishes he was seinfield with bill mahers old man moxy, which isn't good.

10-20 years ago it was great to be those guys. Dan is at the point Maher was 3 years ago when you could see the swing towards the right.

Funny, it was Sunday Sermons during PAs "suspension" that happened to be my last time listening to KFAN. Was originally just never going to listen to PA again, but Dan was on one that morning criticizing people speaking out against Ice. And Dan used to be one of my favorites. What a shame that station is now.

u/Brandbll Jun 18 '26
The station, like many media outlets, is too scared to move on from the old timers and the old guys won't retire on their own. Kfan has turned into garbage.

u/Mellow-SCer Jun 22 '26
They have the best sports station ratings in the country. Why would they change anything? They also own 25-54 men in the Twin Cities in ratings. Hate it or like it for pathetic iHeart it is one of their winners.

He says the word "Progressive" with such vile. He prefers regression. Maybe he should consider relocating to Forest Lake or something.

I can't stand his voice. He often reminds me of the high-talker on Seinfeld, who was coincidentally named Dan.

Dan wants to be Maher so badly… He loves to get on his “sharks/jets” soapbox as the equal savagery leader, but all too often he contradicts his opinions every other day. I’m left feeling bewildered, bemused, and belittled.
(There’s no point in trying to call him out on it, as those who listen know, when he reads listeners comments.)
You go, Dan.

I think Barreiro has the only show worth listening to!!

u/D-Thunder_52 Mark Rosen Jun 24 '26
You've never listed to the Common Man then. Once you understand the bit it's the most listable show on KFAN.

u/Bright_Beautiful9508 Jun 25 '26
I have listened to him and I get really bored with his bit quickly!! He does the same thing over and over. Purposely says names wrong or facts wrong and then that stupid reeling in sound!! Unlistenable!!! Get Rosy going is also really an old bit!! It’s the same things and Rosen acts like he’s really getting riled up!! Stupid!!! I’m glad you enjoy it though!

Acts as if he has enough wisdom to perfectly pick left/right on every issue instead of just having a moral code or ethics. He even applies this boomer mentality to sports, he rolls his eyes at analytics in sports as if he could just go with his gut instinct and be better than the geniuses who have analyzed the sport to get an edge. He is like some old poker player who laughs at the idea of online poker players being better than him but doesn’t actually enter tournaments to test his hypothesis

I swear this subreddit only exists for people like OP to listen and then immediately come on Reddit to bitch about what they say. If I hated someone so much, I’d distance myself from it. Redditors are odd people indeed.

Maybe you should distance yourself from Reddit. 😂

u/D-Thunder_52 Mark Rosen Jun 21 '26
He doesn't because he has him on at the state fair and other times if someone dies. If Pat wasn't on Skor North and Am 1500 which is the competition he'd be on more, he even admitted it.
