I think the G has gotten better since he left as well. John Williams has the most fluid show IMO and is the best listen during the day. While Garry is entertaining, I can only take it in small doses as I'm reminded time and time again why he's a better sidekick than the main guy.
Can't listen to Nick D anymore but that was long before any management change. Now I don't know how things are now but the thing that turned me off is how it was always 'about him'. If someone called in on a topic he had the talent to turn it into something about himself pretty consistently. Long gaps of him stuttering and snickering at himself. UGH! He can't read copy, he laughs at himself too much (at things that weren't funny to begin with), and unless he is talking about something pop culture, he is way beyond his depth as an interviewer.
Sounds like another marriage has come and gone and I'm not sure if that is the person he was with since I last listened on a regular basis. From what I could recall, he couldn't go three minutes without mentioning her name. It was unbearable! He'd be talking about a topic and then say 'Oh (whatever her name was) just texted....I'm an idoit. Why is she with me?" and then giggle at himself. Why indeed Nick?
