Is Ian a jerk to the board op?

[spicynujac]

I just listened to another podcast where Ian and Mark take a call from a caller and he corrects them about which station he is listening to and Ian responds "WFLA, Board op got it wrong" and I'm just curious if other people think Ian is a jerk to the board op, or if he deserves it.  It could very well be that the board ops are making stupid mistakes that they shouldn't (I mean they only have a small handful of duties and their mistakes affect a worldwide radio show).  But I wonder if correcting the guys mistakes on national radio is a dick move or if Ian has corrected the board op in private before, and he continues to make mistakes so maybe it is justified to correct him on the air.  The main thing I notice is that I've never heard him say anything nice about the board op or network staff at all.  Well maybe one time when a network guy agreed to work on a holiday.

I don't give a fuck.  Are you high or drunk right now?

Well Ian sometimes has is asshole demeaner show up but I doubt the board op is getting constant unfair criticism. I think he probably could have waited to say something to him instead of on the radio but we're all human and can do something without thinking or if he meant to I dont really care either. I think ur looking to into it imo.


Edit: I am drunk and high right now. I havent smoked in a while. ^_^

I remember one time he had the board op turn his mic on and talked to him for a bit about the situation at the network. I know they're friendly with each other.

I dunno. The board op is a good guy I'm sure, but does mess up information a lot. But I suppose I can't judge based on never having answered calls and running audio for a national show all at once.
