I much prefer listening to the lcoal guys vs. national guys because you get both local stories and national stories and the latter from a local perspective. I also think the national guys feel pressure to "perform" while the local guys just relax and talk. I didn't like Bud Poliquin until I started listening to his show and found him to be an OK guys. (He often comes off a bit cold and cynical in print: in person it's the opposite). Jim Lersch plays off him well. Lindsley is a good reporter but not a "natural" as a host. He's a "Just the facts, Ma'm'" type. Also, when you call in, he doesn't incorporate what you said into the dicsussion- it's like the call is an interruption to his show, (which is why he doesn't get many of them). Brent is underrated. Great personality, sort of a local bartender type, very welcoming to guests and callers. And he's not the idiot some people like to think he is. My only complaint is that sometimes he pretends that you just said something that proves his point when it didn't necessarily do so. But he finesses that well.

It sure beats listening to true idiots like Colin Cowherd and Tim Brando.
