The Woody Show, Live 105

http://www.live105.com

The Woody Show began airing on Live 105 in January 2006 with the unenviable task of replacing Howard Stern in the station's morning slot (5:30-10 a.m.).Woody and Co. were wise to avoid Stern's shtick in favor of a relatively frill-free morning show. And that's what we love most: The show really feels like a bunch of real locals shooting the breeze. Sure, there's the occasional wacky antic, such as leaving a parcel of porn in the middle of a San Francisco street and monitoring what happens. But the show's biggest hint at a recurring bit is to reward each person who phones in with a ring of a bell and a proclamation that he or she is the number one caller in his or her town. Another unsung highlight is female reporter Ravey, who can outdo most guys when talking about brawny sports like hockey.

Woody Show blows Howard out of the water. I've been listening ever since they started. I was like, "Who are these guys... pretty damn funny."

I stream online it whenever I'm out of the Bay Area. (LA, Vegas, Japan, etc.)

I love the Woody Show!!!! They are the best morning show. Getting stuck in the morning traffic is actually fun with their show on. Woody, Ravey, Tony, Greg and Menace you are the best.

The Woody Show IS the best!!! I've been listening to them since they first started at Live105 as the Morning Music Co-op... amazing how the show evolved from that to what it is today. I love the whole crew - Woody, Tony, Ravey, Greg, Menace, Brian, and now Vanessa - you guys are the $#!+!!!

Woody show is the best!
Comment by Fernando from San Francisco on May 29th, 2008, 13:43 pm
Hey Woody Show, you're #1 in Napa, bitches!
The whole crew is awesome; hilarious, honest, opinionated (Greg has nearly turned me into a bitter republican) and I listen every day while on my commute. Some of those other more promoted shows could never come close to being as great!
Comment by Sara from napa on May 29th, 2008, 14:11 pm
This is the only thing on the radio that I have ever made a point to listen to. The best part is when they clown alice's morning show! There posting of the entire shows on justin.tv/thewoodshow means I never miss a minute. Number ONE wherever you are reading this.

Comment by RlAngeles from Dallas Tx on May 29th, 2008, 15:22 pm
The woody show rocks!! Woody is hilarious, got to love the quick wit and smart ass responses. Tony is pretty funny, in spite of being the highest paid retard on the radio. Menace kills me! No, not just his inability to read copy but his general attitude. Take the power back Menace! Marin is part of the bay area, hater! Greg is the man! Definitely the big brains of the show, love the hate mail when he's spewin' fire! Ravey adds some female insight and perspective (always a plus when Tony is talking about his 'self-lovin.') and she knows sports! Count it, I'm in! Great job guys, keep it up. I've been listening from day 1 and will continue to do so. Oh and Sara and No Name can sux it!
Comment by T Wilson from San Rafael on May 29th, 2008, 19:23 pm
These guys are the best!!! It feels like these guys are friends of mine even though I've never met them. Their greatness is that the sound like normal people who bitch, whine, laugh, make fun of each other, and just have fun. I love all the bits and I try to never miss the show unless I have to. You guys rock, don't ever leave the bay area!!! Woody you shouldn't be punished for anything that went down with the Alice people. No Name was cool when he was on KOME, but since that station when south and so did he. Rock on guys and gal!
Comment by Brian Kindle from Castro Valley on May 29th, 2008, 22:16 pm
105.3's morning show is the greatest thing that I have heard on the radio, ever! Maybe not as hot as Dayna on Alice, but way more entertaining.
Comment by Thrasher from San Rafael on May 29th, 2008, 22:26 pm
The Woody Show is the best show ever! I listen to it every morning during my commute and I can never stop laughing!! Number 1 in San Francisco *ding* suck it.
Comment by Christina from San Francisco on May 29th, 2008, 23:18 pm
"The show really feels like a bunch of real locals shooting the breeze. "
I love the show, but you apparently don't listen at all. Imagine I underlined the 'at all' in that last sentence. Then I put it in bold. Then I repeated it. At all.
Comment by DirkFunk from SJ on May 29th, 2008, 23:44 pm
Much better than Sarah and No-Talent
Comment by Mr. Owl from Union City on May 30th, 2008, 08:58 am
This whole time I thought they were really #1, when they said #1 in San Jose. I found out the other day it was all a joke. But now, that joke has become the TRUTH. So all of the other morning shows can SUCK IT!
Comment by DanD from San Jose, CA on May 30th, 2008, 10:57 am
I have listen to MANY morning shows and THE WOODY SHOW is by FARRR the BEST!!! #1 in Windsor!! DING!
SUCK IT!

The Woody Show Blows!! Its all about Sarah and No Name!!
Comment by rosalinda from hayward on Jun 2nd, 2008, 09:02 am
Rosalina.....you ALMOST had it right. Your post should have read: It's all about The Woody Show! Sarah and No Name blows. Don't worry, you'll nail it next time :)
Comment by Woody from SF on Jun 2nd, 2008, 11:03 am
The Woody show still blows!! Sarah and No Name is still number one! Does the Mayor come on the woody show on a regualr basis just chill and have a good time?? I think not!!!
Comment by ROSALINDA from Hayward on Jun 6th, 2008, 10:42 am
This show sucks!!!! The worst 20 minutes of my life. They're a bunch of complainers who are extremely rude to the listeners that call in. Don't let this little bit of praise get into your head. You're better off if you just shut up and play some music.
Comment by Suzie from Oakland on Nov 18th, 2008, 21:56 pm
Honestly this show is terrible! I dont know how peopel praise it liek they are, they must not listen to radio in other areas because it is by far the worst show mornign show I have ever heard and there praise is a reflection on how poor the radio talent is in this area.
Woody is a punk tries and to come off as Joe Cool and act like he is better then all the lsiteners. There mean to callers and try to play the whole "im so cool cuz i go against the grain card" which is so fake. The worst is when they go on the rants liek "hey caller kill yourslef" that is so played out, unfunny, and cliche wannabe shock radio. The fact that is also boring, filled with stupid/uniterestinggames, not funny, just make sit that much harder to accept they are the only alt. rock station in town
Comment by chris from Walnut Creek on Jan 9th, 2009, 18:29 pm
Wow, this really surprised me. Really? I've listened a few times and it struck me as whiney and suburban. A few random things I heard: the woody guy thinks breast feeding is some kind of perverted act, they can't understand why there aren't more big box stores in SF. They just moved out here from the midwest right? I guess it might appeal to a lot of the B&T crowd during drivetime. To each his own.
