They are probably one of the better hosts you're going to get -  they are UM grads, follow sports, have show/TV/radio experience, and are pretty good on their feet (which is huge for a live event). I know their comedy isn't for everybody, but that kind of is their thing.

 

I will say that they play off each other better than just one brother doing it, so I think having both is a big step up from just Randy hosting last year (who I thought did a fine job).

I forgot the one hosted last year.  I'd urge people who are upset to give them a chance.  The one guy certainly didn't leave me in stiches but he was an effective emcee.  Kept things moving, avoided awkward pauses (exepct when Shanahan spoke but that wasn't his fault), injected some personality into the proceedings without taking over.

pairing two painfully unfunny people who just happen to look like each other supposedly makes everything humorous. I'm old enough to remember when they were at UM; they were hacks then too.

I remember them winning a Talent Show of sorts in 93-94 ...they came on stage riding a tandem bike and opened with a DoubleMint gum joke. Then they went into a bit about how old the women at CRISP were ... Anyone else remember CRISPing???? I give them cred for their success but don't find them terribly funny personally.

YES!! BRANDONS GOTTEN SO BIG JON DORE!

For those unfamiliar, Jason and Randy host two hilarious podcasts: Sklarbro Country and Dumb People Town. Two must-listens for me every week.
