I know it’s been said but it’s absolutely terrible that it’s the Friday before the opening LSU game and we’re talking about College football lines.. no one gives a shite about gambling on TCU v. Colorado. We want to hear about the upcoming LSU game. Not phone calls from Jimmys gambling buddies in Vegas.

Paul Allen will be here shortly with his "Jimmy Ott is the best radio personality in Baton Rouge" schtick. Ott is all betting lines and stuttering, dude is horrible.

Agreed…As much as I like Hanny, that show is rough.

They have to fill time as well. Shows have been talking about the LSU game all week that you can go back and listen to.

Isn’t the Hanny and Ott show a majority betting show?

They have like 10 different gambling guests that rotate in throughout the week. It's awful.

It's all the same.

No James "Jimmy" Ott (aka the "Ottfather") slander will be tolerated. He is the best in the business. If you doubt me, just go to Jolie Pearl on a Thursday night during football season. He's a class act and knows what he's talking about.

Glad I'm not the only one who notices this. Guy must be best friends with Ott or something to constantly peddle this every thread that comes up.

That show has to be some sort of front for him just to get free lunch everyday.

They had on some doofus yesterday that runs the book at the Beau Rivage I guess and were just asking him about the vibe and what money was coming in on.

I’m okay with talking about the the lines and money while breaking down a game ig but why the hell do they think it’s good radio to have like 6 different bookmakers calling in and talking when there is actual stuff to recap and a game to look forward to is beyond me.

Jimmy Ott pretending he’d never heard Napier called Sunbelt Billy.

Sorry you only listen to just 15 minutes of a 2-3 hour show.

Do the books take over/under on the number of “uhhhs” by Jimmy per hour?

Only about 15 minutes of actually LSU football analysis. So no point in listening to the whole 2-3 hours.

fricking gambling has taken over the show and it fricking sucks arse. Nobody cares what the betting line is for some no name school against another no name school.

Sounds like you should listen to a show that’s not focused on gambling then… there are plenty of shows readily available that do not focus on gambling.

So you listened to the entire 2-3 or are you just saying that because it fits your narrative. I've produced radio show, not in the BR area, and you sound like the typical caller who just calls to bitch

Actually a large portion of the audience cares or they wouldn't be talking about it. Same reason why Draftkings continues to advertise during games. I watch NASCAR and you didn't see me talking about it every show.

I like Hanny too, but Ott is just hard to listen to. I really liked when OTT had the 6:00 show... changed the station at 5:59
