A little update regarding closing or selling the site.
If you haven’t heard, which you can below, our beloved McGruber is leaving the Ticket. I’ll save the detail for the audio, but just like everyone else, TheUnTicket is really going to miss Grubes at the Ticket because he has been so helpful over the years with getting audio we may have missed or audio we just didn’t have. One of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet and I can only imagine what everyone at the Ticket feels like working with him day in and day out. You’ll be missed, friend!
Of course, if you ever want to make yourself heard or need a fix, this site will always be your playground if you wish. And for those that thought like I did, “April Fool’s” or maybe some sort of prank, Grubes even posted his acceptance letter on twitter. Posted the official announcement and then the awesome segment the Hardline did below.

Awesome Hardline Segment About It
Oh, Shoopy…
Gonna gonna miss everybody, gonna gonna miss everybody
Grubes, I’ve always wondered what you’d do about college. As much as it sucks, you are making the right decision man. That’s ahh… tough thing, but ahhhh… We’re going to miss you bud. Good luck.
Stay hard, Grubes!!
Will miss you Shoopy. The Afternoons on the Ticket won’t be the same. You are the Drop Master and no other can come near what you are able to do.
(Darth Vadar) “NNNOOOOO!”
THE drop master !! thx for making my drive to work better in the afternoon shoopy!!
Such a weird feeling. I hate seeing grubes leave. Such an important part of the ticket these past few years. I guess i will take out my frustrations on redtube.
SEE YOU AT THA CROSSROADS
I think it’s entirely plausible that the failure to bring over old drops during the station move forced his hand. Think about it: all the hard work to catalog drops just gone in a flash. I’d quit too if all my hard work was destroyed.
What did I say before?
Good onya, Grubes!
This is a tough thing. It’s not going to be the same without Shoopy. Have they mentioned who is going to be filling those shoes? I’m assuming TC. Rest in Peace Grubes.
If he wants to “move up” that just sounds like they can’t afford to pay him a decent wage. Exceptions are made for exceptional people, no need to keep him at a board op salary. Fucking bean counters.
What a huge setback for the ticket and especially the hardline. I’m not sure I understand the logic of him saying if he had the degree already he would stay, but I’m not here to criticize. If they really were paying him as poorly as they joke about it then it’s better for him to move on. Given how cumulus has crapped all over their talent during this move it serves them right that someone has bailed on them anyway. Best of luck to Grubes and my condolences to Mike and Corby because their show just got a whole lot less funny.
Sorry to see you leave Grubes.
Psycho Dave anyone?
The only show I tune into anymore is Bob, Dan, & Donny… The rest of it sucks. 52 yr old-P1.
