you may not believe this, but in many "circles" this guy is loved and worshipped. Why it was only yesterday that I was told by a very nice middle aged lady (working at the KW dealership) that he, Bubba, aka Bubba the Love Sponge, was, in fact, the "smartest" man in America! My "Bubba Army" sticker on my laptop has brought me more attention than well, anything else. "Hey, Bubba Army, right on dude! - he's the man." is what I'm typically told. It seems every mechanic (and other blue collar worker, including cops) knows of or has heard or listens regularly to the Bubba radio show. It all began for Todd Alan Clem in Indiana on "regular" radio in 1985. Years pass and he moves from city to city - radio station to radio station - and now he can be heard on Sirius/XM thanks to Howard Stern bringing him on board and back from the dead. Concurrently (once again) he can also be heard on a growing list of Florida terrestrial radio stations. Bubba is national via satellite, but he destined to go national on terrestrial again, I'm sure. It's just a matter of time. Bubba is hot and 'rollin. I'm not going to spend any time writing about his indecency issues and the history of complaints and fines with the FCC, the pig incident and the host of other shit he has gotten himself into. It's all really irrelevant to the fact that this guy is very popular and people want to hear what he has to say. I never listened to him on "regular" radio, but I have tuned in numerous times on satellite and I must say, he is growing on me. I like the guy. I like his voice. He's got his own unique way of speaking. I like his style. And, he is a big guy like me and my son. Most people tell me they like the "cleaned-up" version of Bubba on terrestrial radio more than the satellite show. I've only heard the uncensored version. Now, Bubba is a mini business conglomerate, with merchandise, restaurants, a road show called Bubbapalooza and more. He's into racing, his little boy races, his wife is hot, he has a weight problem which he constantly battles and talks about on his show, one of his best friends is Hulk Hogan and like I said people grow to love the big guy. One of his theme songs is "Full Trucker Effect" by Johnny Socko, which I guarantee you will want to hear over and over. The guy works hard, makes a hell of a lot of money and I suggest you check him out.
