I listen to Rick & Bubba every morning and will hate the end of the year when they separate. I like listing to Rick but Bubba not being there is definitely going to be different. Both of them together is definitely what made their show and in my opinion it’s not as good when Bubba is off.
Long time listener. They each need one another! Wish they could take a risk and step out on a limb and do their own show on satellite or your tube and not worry about their current company who employs them. Please don’t separate!!!!!!!!!!!!! B
I won’t listen to the show when bubba’s on vacation or sick or whatever. The show is no longer funny when he’s off air. So I doubt I’ll be listening when he leaves
The politics were one of my favorite parts of the show. Mainly how they covered it and came at it with common sense approach. So much better than getting that information from the main news outlets. Glad he is going to do more of what he wants to do though, good for all of them.
What if bubba is running for a political position? His daughter is coming back home. I doubt he is but I just have to know he is going to do something he loves since they did him so dirty.
I think it for total freedom. I think advertising has a big part of the control. You have to play the game for the people giving the money and financially supporting the show.
I love hearing this! I've gotten a bit exhausted with the political coverage. Everything Rick says here is what I miss about Rick and Bubba. My favorite thing is "How Bizarre." I like that an "Your America." I'm looking forward to this.
Love Rick and Bubba. Good to hear some of it is going to keep going. Congratulations to Bubba on retirement. From someone who’s worked since 15 years old I get it. I just hope it’s not because of his health. I hope he makes it easy for us to find him again after the Rick and Bubba show is over.
I like the idea of having less political talk. I don’t mind some of it, but it feels like the Rick and Bubba Show these days is very heavy on politics. Constant politics is just discouraging to me.
From the time they announced this change, I suspected Bubba is not good medically. All Rick & Bubba fans know he was having some issues, so I wonder if that had something to do with it, based on what Rick said he wants to do afterwards, that is right up Bubba's alley, so why retire the show? Just speculation.
I don't think they "retired" the show. I believe it was retired for them based on some things Rick said the day they announced it. Bubba said during a local news interview that he's looking for a job if anyone is hiring. I don't think he wants to retire.
@@thomasdickey1397 I have since found out that Bubba was pushed out by Rick. Bubba wanted the show to continue, but Rick's plan all along was to have his own show with everyone but Bubba. Makes no sense, and it is very disheartening to say the least.
@@speedracer2336 I don't believe that's true, because Bubba said during a local news interview that he's looking if anyone wants to hire him. He was serious.
@@DennisJohnsonDrummer Rick said on the show that he had been faithful to the brand for 31 yrs and is ready for a new adventure. They've been so tight lipped but as far as one can tell Rick is taking all except Bubba w him to a new show/brand is all I've heard...no why or anythiny 😢 They give each other relief in my humble opinion.
Bubba is ready to retire and move to the lake. It was contract time and i dont think enough money was offered this time. Bubba has chisen to retire and isnt being left behind. They said that the morning of Feb. 1 when they announced it.
Bubba has said publicly on social media that the show ending wasn't his choice. He said in a tv interview that he's looking for a job. He's not "ready to retire and move to the lake", and I can't imagine why Sharing Bread would pin this inaccurate comment.
Your comment is inaccurate- bubba has made it VERY clear on Instagram that this is not what he wants. Multiple times he said the show ending was not his choice. He’s said everything short of he’s being left behind. Bubba is remaining to be a class act.
@@sarahgarry5776 Yes. Everything you've said is accurate. Bubba has extended an extraordinary amount of grace to his partner of 31 years considering how Rick has treated him in all of this. I really believe people need to know the truth.
@@sarahgarry5776 I share your opinion about Bubba being a "class act". He has shown way more grace in this situation than anyone I know would. I believe listeners have a right to know that this was not Bubba's choice. He was literally cut out of the show by Rick - who planned this with the syndicator for a few years - and neither of them bothered to tell Bubba. We haven't been able to listen to the show knowing this. I personally believers listeners have a right to this knowledge before they decide if they will continue listening to Rick's new show next year. I can only imagine how I would feel if I was in Bubba's shoes. This must be extremely hurtful to him and his family, and it doesn't sound very loyal of his business partner Rick.
When they first announced their show was stopping bubba said “I’m sorry “ and several times he’s said things like it wasn’t his idea to leave / it felt like he wasn’t offered enough money or something. He’s acted a certain kinda way about
The best shows are the ones without Rick on them. It’s already the Rick Burgess show. It’s all about him, what he’s doing and promoting his lucrative Man Church. Bubba is the real comedy. Really hope he has his own show. People listen for the sports and politics and that’s what he wants to take out
Rick said on the show that he had been faithful to the brand for 31 yrs and is ready for a new adventure. So they've been so tight lipped but as far as one can tell Rick is taking all except Bubba w him to a new show/brand. 😢 I won't be going with them because i don't like the show without either of them. They give each other relief in my humble opinion.
Just my take on the show get mad and reply if you want fanboys I don't care. I listened from the beginning, the show in the first few years was the funniest ever. Then it became so over religious sorry but to me its a turn off. I don't think Bubba was on board with the constant man church religious talk day in day out either. Btw Rick saying on a show that the man church doesn't make any money come on now nobody believes that bs. He is raking in the dough from that alone. He saw his buddy Dave Ramsey with the financial peace university baloney and came up with the man church curriculum. It's all about money just stop pretending its not. Political talk is the one thing i liked about the show. Now hes gonna do a show even more focused on religion? What's he gonna be the Ernest Angsley of morning radio. Sorry hard pass if that's the case.
Rick literally disowned his daughter on-air because she told him she was bi-sexual. He dragged her name through the mud for years and no longer allowed her near the family. So yeah. When that happened I quit listening to the show, as it divulged into even more religious grandstanding than before. It will only get worse now. What a shame that he willingly tore his own family apart because of religious brainwashing.
I listen to Rick & Bubba every morning and will hate the end of the year when they separate. I like listing to Rick but Bubba not being there is definitely going to be different. Both of them together is definitely what made their show and in my opinion it’s not as good when Bubba is off.
That was a good interview. It was nice to hear from Rick's own mouth what the next plan is for his new show.
Long time listener. They each need one another! Wish they could take a risk and step out on a limb and do their own show on satellite or your tube and not worry about their current company who employs them. Please don’t separate!!!!!!!!!!!!! B
Been with them all 30 years. It is time for a change. The kickoff hour is the best part of the entire show
It will all come out ,it always does .
Big fan from the q104 days in Gadsden .
Good luck to both of those guys what ever the case may be 😊.
What makes him think his show will be better without bubba in it?
Looking forward to the new show! I will miss the old show for sure but really excited for the new season of life Rick is in.
I enjoyed them earlier in their careers, so funny. Looking forward to the new show!
I won’t listen to the show when bubba’s on vacation or sick or whatever. The show is no longer funny when he’s off air. So I doubt I’ll be listening when he leaves

Sad to see Bubba not included 😢
Same here.
Yes it is.Bubba is the glue! He’s Number 2. Rick isnt enough to carry that show. I hope this doesnt hurt Speedy, Greg and Adler’s future.
I think bubba has had enough of the scuffed Joel Osteen sidekick
What if bubba is running for a political position? His daughter is coming back home. I doubt he is but I just have to know he is going to do something he loves since they did him so dirty.

So what you're saying you like his politics
Politics is the biggest story of the past 4 years. And sadly it is entertaining
Love Rick and Bubba. Good to hear some of it is going to keep going. Congratulations to Bubba on retirement. From someone who’s worked since 15 years old I get it. I just hope it’s not because of his health. I hope he makes it easy for us to find him again after the Rick and Bubba show is over.
Bubba is not retiring. He was pushed out.
Yep! He didn’t want this! He’s said several times that he would go on for several more years.
I like the idea of having less political talk. I don’t mind some of it, but it feels like the Rick and Bubba Show these days is very heavy on politics. Constant politics is just discouraging to me.
It dosent make sense to just start over. Is there bad blood between the two of them for some reason???
Something is definitely going on.
@@bethdawson3441 100%
Good luck Rick. I will definitely be listening!

Omg bubba said that!
I know the day bubba announced it he said several little comments like it’s not his idea to continue
@DennisJohnsonDrummer yeah when I heard the announcement you could read between the lines that this wasn't their call
@@thomasdickey1397 I have since found out that Bubba was pushed out by Rick. Bubba wanted the show to continue, but Rick's plan all along was to have his own show with everyone but Bubba. Makes no sense, and it is very disheartening to say the least.
I love them both don’t understand why they don’t stay together won’t be the show we all know and love but I hope they both do well in whatever they do
Have heard Bubba wants to retire, don’t know if that is accurate!
@@speedracer2336 I don't believe that's true, because Bubba said during a local news interview that he's looking if anyone wants to hire him. He was serious.
If it was just bubba was retiring they would say that.
Change is good embrace it
I won't listen without both of them there
I don't understand why Bubba isn't included.

If bubba was retiring they would have said that. I think there is something else.
Michael Helms aka "Helmsley" is also leaving at year end. At least that is the scuttlebutt.
Semper Fi
I just hope this new show doesn’t hurt Adler and the rest of them
well it will never be the same again and lot of folks gonna move onto something else SAD to see.
Bubba is ready to retire and move to the lake. It was contract time and i dont think enough money was offered this time. Bubba has chisen to retire and isnt being left behind. They said that the morning of Feb. 1 when they announced it.

I wouldn't bet on it or he would have dropped that hint.

Hope Bubba’s health isn’t the reason for the change.

It's not.
@@JD_Spencer I won't listen on principle alone. How Rick could reject Bubba like that after all these years is beyond me.

He likes to hear hisself yak WAY too much.. The show hasnt been funny in a LONG time.. Greg is the only good part of the show..
True, maybe if we didn't get a "hey buy the man church tickets before they sell out" on every break of the show maybe it would be a funnier show
Politics and hypocrisy killed the show. The daily name calling…”the left, the left”.. is not “Christian” at all 🙄
So you support Joe Biden?
