To celebrate 4/20, Humble and Fred are flirting with the idea of smoking a bowl of hash while they record their podcast on April 20. Although I strongly believe it should be decriminalized, it's still illegal, and I worry about the guys promoting such blatant defiance of our silly
I spent the afternoon at Redfish studios for the recording of Humble and Fred's 100th podcast and a little celebration afterwards. It's hard to believe the guys have 100 shows in the can already. I first teased this little experiment on August 4th, 2011 and sat down with Humble and
I probably teased this one a little too early, but the big announcement from Humble and Fred has just been made on Breakfast Television. Humble and Fred have signed a very cool distribution deal with Rogers. Humble and Fred will continue to podcast but will be promoted by Rogers as
Some of you are fans of Humble and Fred's podcast (now at 50 episodes!) and will be interested in this sweet slice of Humble and Fred news. Humble and Fred have a major announcement to make with regards to a multi-media conglomerate. I've seen the agreement, and it's pretty awesome
I'm going to assume you've checked out Humble and Fred Radio, because I asked you so nicely several times. Humble and Fred have been podcasting daily for a couple of months now, and we're going to celebrate with a good old fashioned Humble and Fred Christmas special. It will be
Humble and Fred received a letter from Corus Entertainment Inc. this morning. It was from one of Corus's "Trade-mark Agents" and it was to the attention of Howard Glassman and Fred Patterson at Humble and Fred Worldwide Studios. I've seen the letter, in fact I have a copy, and here's
I just listened to today's episode of Humble and Fred Radio. At about the 30 minute mark, between some typically hilarious banter and a great performance by 54-40, guest Fearless Fred from Edge 102 goes off on me. You have to hear this 5:27 of audio to believe it.
Humble and Fred Radio has been in the works for a while. In late July, Fred Patterson was dismissed by Corus, and the planning began in earnest. I managed to keep it completely on the QT until August 4th when I wrote Humble and Fred's Perfect Storm - A Radio
I realize there's been a lot of Humble and Fred Radio podcast content lately, but this project is only only a couple of weeks old and has already been one hulluva ride. If you got your iTunes newsletter this month, you saw our little podcast featured alongside Susan Boyle and
We've been recording the Humble and Fred podcast every weekday for a couple of weeks now, and it's been an experience like no other. The early results are encouraging, the content has been top notch and it's the most fun I've ever had with my clothes on. Yes, we keep
I was mic'd again for today's episode of Humble and Fred Radio. The guys have recorded four episodes thus far, and I've attended three of them. That gives me a pretty sweet perspective for this entry, a behind the scenes look at Humble and Fred Radio. Firstly, it's pretty cool
Episode two was just posted at http://www.humbleandfredradio.com/. I'm in this one, and as a result, I haven't listened yet. I hate how I sound on the radio. Besides, I'm far more interested in what you all think. Have you heard it yet? What did you think? Is
There's a nice piece by Vinay Menon in the Toronto Star today. Here's an excerpt: In a makeshift studio, in a lowrise building on a desolate street in Etobicoke, Humble and Fred are planning to rebottle the madcap alchemy that first earned them a devoted following in 1989, when they
Ok guys, I'm ready. Let me have it... The new home of Humble and Fred Radio is now live at www.humbleandfredradio.com. The first podcast will be available there October 15. Please do me a solid and click on over, then come back and share your feedback in the
Freddie P is sharing a story today about the studio they're building for the new Humble and Fred Radio show. I've been to their new studio a couple of times now, including yesterday, so I'm going to spill the beans as to what this place is really like. Firstly, it's
I've been hacking away at the new http://www.humbleandfredradio.com/, sending proofs to Humble and Fred to approve. The latest list of changes from the boys includes my absolute favourite customer request. Humble just asked me to make the logo bigger. Humble, this is for you.

I just returned from lunch with Humble and Fred. Normally that's not a blog-worthy event, but this was a business lunch at Humble and Fred headquarters in lovely industrial Etobicoke. We're on the verge of trying something very cool. I won't divulge any details... at least not yet... but I
If you've been here before, you might know I'm personal friends with both Humble Howard and Fred Patterson of the old Humble and Fred radio program. Before I ever met the guys, however, I was a fan of their morning show on CFNY / Edge 102. They made me laugh throughout
As we discussed during this weekend's Open Mike, Freddie P is out as Program Director for the Corus cluster of stations in Peterborough. Here's an update from the man himself. I will also think about the next step, and besides talking to a couple of people who have reached out
A few thoughts on getting fired. Getting fired has made me fat. And lazy. I'm just barely able to bother writing a few line for Mikey Mike's little blog. I miss being funny every day. Getting fired has made me think less and worry more but I'm out of the
Freddie hasn't had an on-air gig in radio since 2005. Humble's off the air now as well. It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to realize the time is right for a Humble and Fred reunion on terrestrial radio. For you radio folks who are wondering what Humble and Fred would
Prior to this blog starting up in 2002, Humble spent a nice long time with Fred at Edge 102, a.k.a. CFNY, with a brief departure for Humble to Mix 99.9 in 1989. Humble and Fred then moved their morning show to Mojo Radio on AM640. Then, this
This all seems awfully familiar... In July 2006, I noticed traffic to this site from folks searching 'humble howard fired'. That prompted me to write "Humble Howard, Are You Okay?". It turns out, he was fired from Mix 99.9 that day, and I unfortunately broke the story. Humble and
Courtesy of Retrontario, here's a 1989 television ad for CFNY's Humble and Fred morning show. Man, that Miami Vice look did not work for Humble. Fred, however, still dresses like that.
