The E60

I has taken this long to get an E60 segment on Dana White yet Kimbo Slice had his a long time ago!?. It just shows you how ESPN percieves MMA, like pro-wrestling or something.

What’s the latest on WJFK’s signal power? Is there any chance that it will be throughout the mid-atlantic any time soon?

You’ve had some really solid shows lately Luke. Looking forward to this one.

Atlantic: Dana White is a figurehead.
Woods: Dana White runs the show.

Interesting….

It’s obvious Samuels was wrong about this. Talk to anyone who does business with the UFC and they tell you they deal with Dana, not Lorenzo. Dana does virtually everything domestic.

Luke, I love your show. I do not miss a show. But Why oh Why do you advertise it here, when there is NO WHERE I can actually listen to it for days?

Itunes is not updated, the rss feed is not updated and I can’t listen to it on the WJFK site unless live.

hey it’s live now :)

you can listen live on www.wjfk.com, even if you’re in a different country. i know the podcasts have been posted kind of late these past 2 weeks but from now on the podcasts will always be posted immediately after the show.

You do a great job with this show, Luke. By far the best MMA radio show IMO.

Dukes is pretty much completely incorrect about the game. Just high kicking doesn’t work on higher difficulties. Joe Silva probably controls the fighter attributes more than Dana White. Maybe if Dukes decided to do something other than high kicking he might have a better chance when playing Shogun against Chuck.

A man should never waste an opportunity to keep his mouth shut.

Yeah, I disagree with the high kicking statement 100%.

by Eugene Schelfaut on May 16, 2009 8:25 PM EDT up reply actions

High kick from me turns into backward dodge followed by superman punch from expert Chuck.

Props to whoever is in charge of getting the podcast up on WJFK.com for getting this one up on the same day.

Man I think Chad is just way off. If someone tries to just head kick me I am going to kill them. He may be able to do that on easy, if he tries it on expert he is going to be beaten up bad.
