I live in the Los Angeles area and I love to start my day by listening to Mark & Brian (http://markandbrian.com/markandbrian/) on KLOS. They are syndicated in several places, so I thought there might people on here who listen to them.

If you've never heard of Mark & Brian and like radio talk shows I would recommend checking these guys out (website linked above). They are really well known and get a lot of big name guests. They are funny as hell and basically just a lot of fun.

So, any other Mark & Brian fans here?

Funny to see this thread. I've been listening to them since they got here, off and on. That's a long time. Some times they are a bit annoying with some bits they do but overall I listen in. So much crap on the radio here in LA that I often drift over to the 95.5

How long were you in LA before you heard of Mark & Brian? These guys were basically my idols for a long time. I eventually moved and stopped listening to them a while before that. The iPod took over, NPR and the likes. I wish they were on SAT radio. :(

No they were far sooner than Howard as far as syndication goes. I can't think of a time when they ripped him off either. Just a good time for radio in LA.

We weren't here too long before we discovered them. Funny story, actually... For some reason when we first moved out here about a year ago 95.5 was the only radio station that came in clear along our entire commute route. So we started listening, and now we would never dream of changing it.

I don't really think they are anything like Howard Stern, not even close.

Been listening to them for twenty years!

Anyone remember their short-lived TV show? How about their New Year's Eve Elvis Marathon on Channel 11? That was some funny stuff (I ended up editing out the movies and keeping M&B's bits!)

I wish they had more of their old skits available online. I'd kill for the "Ten Commandments Audition."
