i haven't been able to listen because the streaming link on the web site doesn't work. however, i agree that there has to be some sort of friction, symmetry or variety of personalities within any talk show featuring more than one host. kwto is a "news talk" station, so it's not surprising to learn booms has limited time and average colleagues.

not sure if you saw my most recent thread, deacon, but dad is back in the unemployment line (at least as far as a full-time job). i'm still holding out hope that dad and booms will get another show. sporting news radio - for whom they did a couple trial runs a few years ago - doesn't appear to have anything on the air from 4-7 pm (they're currently replaying tim brando every day during that slot). snr should seriously look into signing them.
