Krxq 98 5 Rock

98 TALK: When the do play actual «music» I am pretty happy. I find myself periodically checking back to see when they will stop talking so I can listen to the «ROCK» advertised in their name.

These four stars are for the Dogpound! I love Dog, Arnie and Joe together. Not a fan of the morning show Rob, Anybody and Dawn. But I listen to the Dogpound everyday — wish they were on twice a day instead of RAD. I would give five stars but not a fan of RAD, so it’s just four.

The morning show is really the only good thing they have going, I do occasionally listen to the dog pound but that is only because they brought on Arnie.
The biggest complaint I have is the terrible music lineup they play awful «Rock» music so it is hard to stay tuned in after 10am.
My recommendation is to give Arnie and joe there own show and get rid of the dog boy he and the music really make it hard to enjoy.

Well… to be honest I miss Arnie on the show. No the new format is NOT better. But, I still listen occasionally. The Dog pound got a little better and the Rob, Anybody, and Dawn show just isn’t that good to me. Not sure why they blew off over 20 years of friendship but, I figured they had their reasons. I miss there old segments and the new ones just aren’t that good. It seems sad that pride can be such a strong force. Dawn seems nice but, does a terrible job of representing Christianity. I’ve never even heard her say a scripture. (those are how we look things up in the bible Dawn). I think both shows will fade away now. To bad… Proverbs 16:18. The chapter is the 16 and the verse is the 18 Dawn…

Awful now. I have listened to them off and on since 1995 when they were 93.7 and just removed them from my presets in my car. I give up on them…
I scroll through the stations on my presets and not even 5% of the time are they even playing actual music. Somehow they are always on commercial breaks or the hosts are talking about stupid stuff.
This isn’t talk radio, it’s radio. Play music, be quiet, and do what commercials you have to, maybe with an hour of talk in the morning instead of intermittently all day long. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are only a handful of songs played each hour.

Five stars, overwhelmingly for the Dog Pound. Starting in February 2015, this has been my commute home radio station of choice. The morning show, RAD Radio, can be hit-​or-​miss. I enjoyed Andy on the Dog Pound and his disappearance without any comment is weird but what can you do? I usually don’t listen to radio personalities but like I’ve said, the pound is great. Thanks!

Let me start this by letting everyone know I have been listening to 98 Rock for years. I use to love this channel to death, but in the last 2 years this channel has plunged right into the toilet. How? some of you might ask, well for starters they talk about 97% of the time and only play a song here and there. Every Sunday is «Flux Capacitor» which wouldn’t be bad if we didn’t already have a classic rock station for that. Plus EVERY morning for the week days we have 4-​hours of a terrible «talk show» that has no place on a Rock station.
Now I wouldn’t care as much if there were other options for grunge and modern rock but sadly there isn’t. I don’t understand why these «DJs» think we just want to hear them blab on and on and on. If I wanted to listen to someone talk on the radio, I would be listening to something 100x better such as Howard Stern!
The fact is when this channel actually plays music like it’s supposed to, it’s an epic channel. But sadly it’s plagued by people that think they’re stupid stories and news is more important than playing actual music.
I’ll end this with saying that the female DJ that is barely on is fantastic. She shuts up and actually plays music. Hopefully they’ll wake up and improve this channel but sadly I very much doubt it’ll ever happen.

I’m a Sac state student from Pismo, and when I moved here I was skipping through stations and I landed on 98 Rock. I love listening to the Pound in the afternoons and like listening to RAD radio on my way to school or on my early shifts at work. When I go back home visit I’ll try to listen via website to the Pound. I think they are hilarious, and I think Arnie fits perfectly with Dog and Joe. As for RAD radio, yea Dawns laugh can get annoying and Rob does seem like a prick but eh, it doesn’t make me want to change the station. I think it’s different without Arnie being there but I like Amanda, I think she’s funny and I think they are still doing great. Now before I get haters for saying that, I’m not from here, when I moved here I actually didn’t really listen to the morning show, for a couple reasons. I would just go to school and play my own music, I didn’t really know what stations played what. I pretty much just listened to Dog Andy and Joe in the afternoon when I would work. I love the Dog Pound. WOOFFFF

I am so happy that Arnie left because he fits better with dog and Joe! Plus best of all it really exposes how lame, insecure, self-​absorbed, and not funny Rob is. Rob is one of those ginger dorks that was never cool in high school that ended up getting a radio show and acted like he was the shit. Don is just a stupid bitch who laughs too much and have nothing to bring to the table. In my opinion the ratings are going to go down and I give them about 2 — 5 years before the show is off air.

While the show is still the best thing on the radio by far, al this «There’s less negativity» and the «It’s so much more lighthearted» bullsh*t is dumb. There’s just as much negativity (if you want to call honesty a negative) on the show, which is not a bad thing, it’s just spread out over more people on the show. There’s way more Dawn, which makes me literally want to yell at my radio half of every show, and the producers are great for the most part, but there’s something missing. Sports talk sucks without Arnie (I mean, who didn’t enjoy his anger when his beloved Rangers or Cowboys failed?) and I laugh way less. Thank god for the few old shows that are available (the member site hardly works for me most of the time) cause I can relive the good old days with the RAD I started listening to back in high school. :)

Best show ever! It was good with Arnie and now it’s better! I hate everything else on this station but RAD is the best!!! You can still hear Arnie along with a bunch of other sexist, rude men In the afternoon but it’s just depressing. RAD in the morning is AMAZING!

KRXQ has ditched the tried and true «Morning Zoo» format (one semi-​intellectual host, one crude and jokey host, and one female hostess), in favor of just two of the three people required for such a format. I don’t think it is working.

I think the show has improved since Arnie has left. He didn’t really bring anything new over the last year or two and talked less than the other two so it wasn’t much of a miss. Most of his talking was done on his Arnie games and honestly, they too were getting tired. You could tell his heart wasn’t in it for a while.
He also doesn’t add much to the show he joined on the few instances I heard it. Probably too many cooks in the kitchen on that one.
Rob might seem an ass but he has too many valid points to ignore. Dawn goes off on wild tangents and sometimes you just want to reach through the radio and bring some sense back into her but otherwise she’s fine. A replacement for Arnie would be the best course but its hard to find someone good that wont outshine Rob and his ego.
Either way, I’ll keep listening. Best ofs are still better than everything else on in the morning.

The Rob, Nobody and Dawn show is the best! I will always miss Arnie though, but Thank god he is now on the Dog show later in the day!

The last few months since Arnie has left the show has really improved! I like their new games etc…
But still. Dawn gets on my last nerve! Why why does she fricking laugh at everything?! She reminds me of a girl in high school that did the same thing… she was alone a lot.

Rob always said «if you listen to my show long enough you will be offended» and honest I think that was the only thing he we was right about. At times the show was entertaining but I finally could not look past the racist, sexist and all around idiotic and hypocritical remarks made by all members of the show. «Dr. Rob» ended up getting a divorce even after giving relationship advice for years. After taking about how shameful it is to take «handouts» forever and ever, Rob had his old house foreclosed upon. «Rich rob, poor you»? How about «poor Rob, yay you!» And all his fancy vacations to… California? Lol, please. Arnie made at least one attempt on his life, even though he swears he doesn’t mind being made fun of for his weight and other issues. Maybe his best friend should have been more supportive and gotten some mental health help for him, instead of firing him. And dawn used to just sit around while these other two monkeys put down women left and right. With someone as weak as Dawn, everyone one of Rob’s ridiculous opinions sounded more legit. The show is completely inappropriate; you think they would have learned from the Transgender jokes, and now about the Boston marathon? This show just disgusts me all around. I also stopped listening because I realized I wasn’t actually getting any real news anymore, and was becoming more ignorant and negative by the day. What people are willing to do to make a buck.

I am sorry to say that I no longer listen to the Rob Arnie and Dawn show or now known as Rob nobody and dawn the show is not as funny or entertaining as it used to be with out Arnie will be missed now I have to find a new show or listen to or old shows with Arnie in them wish you guys the best of luck hope your show continues to thrive but don’t expect much without someone like Arnie on the show

Good music until the afternoon guys come on at 3 and talk talk talk about nothing. STFU and play music like a good little DJ.
(Hate Rob & Arnie) Dawn, your cute.

This is my «go to» radio station for my morning drive to work as well as one that I listen to most of the time on my way home or while driving around town.
In the morning from 6−10am is the «Rob, Arnie and Dawn» show which is arguably the best morning radio show in all of Sacramento. I don’t know how I ever woke up in the morning before I moved to Sacramento! They have interesting and relevant topics and funny segments like «Beat Arnie», «Bad News Over Happy Music», and «Ghetto, White Trash or Other». Sure they are controversial with some of their topic choices and what they say, but isn’t that true with anything worth listing to? Sometimes their conversations drag on for too long and they play a lot of reruns, but I still find myself listening every morning for my whole commute.
In the afternoons/​evenings is the «Dog and Joe» show which can be funny and is still a little controversial but not as much so as RAD. They play music during their show in between conversations and their conversations don’t last too long or drag on and they are usually quite funny!
In the late night is «Cristy» whose show I don’t get to listen to very often because I like going to bed early. She used to work for the RAD show but now does her own thing. It’s just her and she plays mostly music, but will bring up something funny or amusing in between songs.
At any other time KRXQ plays classic rock, rock, alternative and the like and is a solid choice if in the area.
