Just heard Dave Hill on Seven Second Delay...not too shabby, I liked him.  No, he's not 'the replacement', it's just a time slot and for the most part I would only listen to the Best Show on the internet the next day to listen to at work so the Tuesday night slot isn't woven into my memories of listening.  Obviously, Dave brings a different style and energy but he's engaged and I like his taste in music.

Re the first David Hill program, I love the idea of an on-hold Dick Cavett listening to Phil Anselmo refer to one of the new members of Down as "fatter than Pig Champion, may he rest in peace."

It was okay. A lot of toilet talk (as was to be expected) and even the flushing of a toilet at one point. The back-to-back calls by Phil Anselmo and Dick Cavett (who both seemed drunk and/or high) were amusing. I loved this exchange: Dick Cavett advises Dave Hill not to play down to his audience; Dave Hill says he did indeed play Down (the band) to his audience; Jon Benjamin chimes in, saying, "Same thing."

I don't think Dave Hill is funny at all, but if he can get interesting FPs on his show on a regular basis, "The Goddamn Dave Hill Show" (ugh) will be something I can listen to.

I never got into his podcast but I do find Dave Hill's "fashion week" videos to be very funny, so I'm willing to give him some time to find a voice on live radio, which is a totally different medium/energy level.

I also hope Spike somehow slithers his way onto the show.

It was decent. A bit awkward, but it's to be expected for the first time around. I'll give it a few more weeks, but I'd say there's a good chance that I'll listen to the show regularly, but not live. I already use the WFMU app daily anyway, so this is another show that I'll download off the archive and listen to at work, but I'm not setting aside Tuesday nights to listen to the show live unless I've got nothing else going on.

Haven't listened to the full episode, but so far im disappointed Tom didn't call in and wish him good luck or even shout him out on twitter.

Dave Hill probably didn't kiss the ring. Or he kissed the ring, but did so while farting or soiling himself or whatever it is he does.

Tom's said plenty of times that he likes Dave and he wished him well in the release I posted at the start of the thread.

Dick Cavett was a pretty cool guest,  Best Show or Goddamn Dave Hill Show.

The less said about yesterday evening's show, the better.
