Jim Rome Joins Darren Smith on Radio Row on his San Diego beginnings

[@gonedeep43]

Love when he does his Hacksaw imitation. Classic!! Miss the 90's and the 690 days.

[@Daniel-fd3wp]

I loved Hacksaw from Baja to the Candian Border. The best 15 minutes intro in Radio. 👍

[@robertguerrero5239]

I remember Jim just starting out. Scrub Saturday's...nights from 7 to midnight...high atop Hot Dog on a Stick...the bulldog Joe Tutino. Glad I was there from the beginning. The Mighty 690.. XTRA.

Thanks Marty!!! This is SOOOO cool!!!

[@sdka4488]

Great interview. 2 of my favorite talking heads.

[@steveathans4017]

Love Rome's shows!! Didn't know he started in my hometown... First time I heard "The Jungle"... Wow!!!! Thought he was in LA. Love it!!!!!

[@alexruezga5544]

I rember those 690 days, i prefered listen to 690 instead of music or tv. I rember the day Dennis green melted and that day i laugthed harder than ever before or after listening to Rome.

[@CyranoVE]

My absolute favorites sport talk show hosts. I live in Calgary and I still listen to those 2 :)

No ones better than rome..just a legend in the game..best ever hands diwn the goat... 30mil a year come on

Yet another great thing SD lost. Jim Rome was the greatest sports talk show SD ever had. Now 1090 is toast because they didn't pay their rent.

[@anthonybocskovits4625]

Does anyone know the song that Darren used to go into a break with? It was kind of a raggae indie type of song. Probably towards the end of 1090? Jordan Carruth would play it.

Jim Rome calling BR Billy Ray Hunt back in the early 90s 😁

[@mariogalvez3391]

Iiiiiii wannna talk sports with you....show me your lighting bolts!

[@VOL559]

“Did they not pay the bills” Funniest thing I’ve heard in days. For those who don’t know, google the mighty 1090.

[@bertrice999]

Rome is coasting on phone call interviews

[@oscarhr16]

Billy Ray Hunt 🤣👍🏼

[@12121149]

Have listened to Rome,from way back in the 690 days in San Diego,was good back then and has gotten worse,my god who repeats the headline ,like 20 times,like him,Show is sub par now,and he is not ,or never will be close to the best ever,just sayin'

[@andrewgillis8572]

superb - Jim would never accept a pairing up the way Stern did w RQ (who I just heard ruin the Daltrey piece - cringe-worthy stuff)

[@RobertABooey75]

BABABOOEY

[@bergeronwb]

Damn shame that Jim Rome did his long time producer Travis Rodgers dirty.

[@jackieslivkoff9835]

Don't assume to know what happened. T Rodge was offered his own show and took it. Jim did NOT fire him as some people think and personally knowing Janet, I can guarantee you this.
