The former HRTV - now the second TVG channel - not widely available apparently.

I know Dish has both, Rectum only has TVG1.

You can get it through Amazon's streaming service, TVG 1 and 2 pkus a third one that is a Tower of Babel of racetracks.

My cable wants $15 a month for TVG2, so I discontinued it when they started to charge extra for it

Believe it of not, Rectum lowered my cable bill and threw in TGV, AXS, and a couple of other ones I wanted for just under half the price TWC was charging me.

Ever since Spectrum took over for Charter, where I live, we have loss stations and the price keeps going up every 3 months of about $15-$20. If my wife didn't have programs that she wanted to watch, I would just not have any tv's.

Haven't watched TVG in a while. Used to watch on Mondays and Tuesdays when Rich was hosting. I guess he's still there?

Rich is on and off during the day now. I like when him and Sarge are on. But they had Matty on during derby week and I shut it down right away. Amazing they allow him and Schrupp on for so long now. Every time they say something to the women hosts I cringe. They have absolutely no class.

I can't take Matt or the one one with him right now - got the old mute button on.

So much mouth, so little brain.

Whenever Rich Perloff signs off from his TVG stint...he asks someone named Steve to "check the time". Could it be that Perloff is getting paid by the HOUR?

I thought those guys got paid somewhere in the vicinity of $200 per 2 hour shift, some do double studio shifts on weekends. Didn't Vic or one of them say that in a thread a few years back?
