Josh Innes made his radio show “sports central” on Friday. Not only did he give out the phone number to 97.5 The Fanatic when telling listeners to call in, but he completely mocked the format of much of 97.5’s shows, including taking a shot at Rob Ellis and Harry Mayes. His show became the sports mundane show he takes shots at every chance he gets, because he loves trolling people. He actually said on Thursday he was going to do exactly what he did, so it wasn’t a surprise to me or a lot of others.
I understand Innes’ point about certain sports radio shows becoming mundane when nothing is going on, but in the course of a five-day work week, slow days on radio are bound to happen. Innes tries his best to not become mundane like many other local sports radio shows have become over the years, but some days are just meant for low-key sports talk that don’t really rock the boat or cause anything controversial. Friday was that day for Innes. Or, should I say, Friday was supposed to be that day for Innes.
The callers were mostly in on the joke, especially when Innes, who was broadcasting from Chickie’s and Pete’s in South Philly, was joined by the Cuz himself. And we have some of that audio for you, courtesy of 94WIP.

Happy Monday!
funniest hour of radio in a long time. still laughing
That faux cuz was the best radio in a long time
hahahaha holy shit spot on cuz! just hearing this, f’ing hilarious. meat locker and primo reference has me rolling
The guy needs to refine the Cuz impersonation. He is mostly spot on. But every now and then he gets a quaver.
Innes pulled Cuz’s south philly privileges.
I’m a cuz fan but find this spot on lol
best radio segment in a long time…. kyle will copy and paste this under radio wars..
Faux Cuz deserves to get his dick sucked for this . Hahaha fuck that was funny
It’s a good skit. But the problem is that Inness is basically making fun of what WIP airs the other 20 hours of the day.
I must say that Jeffy lurie must sell the philadelphia eagles not until then will philadelphia ever have eagles football. You have lurieball which is just confusion and nonsense pansy ass garbage. When lurie sells the eagles philadelphia can get the true eagles team they deserve. Until then root for another Team. God bless
has there been a reaction from 97.5?
mike miss & cuz have to be fuming right now
I thought about that, too. But Angelo’s show is more of a variety show than specifically sports, but Mike and Ike’s show do fit the bill of what Innes was making fun of.
Kyle over at CB hates us. I tried to help him, but he filters my comments, so Ill leave it here to show how childish and immature their site got with the comment monitoring:
Hey Kyle,
Was sent over by Brace. We got a service over there called Gotta Guy. We all have different specialties we refer each other for. Well I do IT and he sent me over here with a 15 percent discount offer for you, to let you know, that I can easily do a quick (faster then it takes Jim to actually proof read his articles) redirect of crossingbroad.com, to direct straight to phillyinfluencer.com, that way the readers can get their philly sports news faster, without ads, and less of a hassle, faster. Im sure they would like that, I mean you still get credit for the site hits, though. Let me know, and hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,
gotta guy..
