It's sad when the most interesting thing on your station in years is your AM talent almost dying because he can't run.

How long until the Packers Backer stories pop up?

Plus, Congress is only in session about 150 days a year (usually 3 days a week Tue-Thu) so there's still plenty of time to see far away relatives for a few days. The breaks in the schedule aren't supposed to be off days for Congress, they're all intentionally built in on so that reps can be working ...

Laura Hardy exits leaving the station with only Flounder as the single local talent on the station.

What a fall from the height of talents like Dave & Jeri and Connie & Fish. Strange that TSQ has simply given up in this market other than with WGRD.

His time at WGPR was legendary and that Prince interview was an amazing get back then. Prince was notoriously media shy back then.

I had no idea he was still bopping around. But good for him on this recognition. Long overdue.

If TSQ cannot monetize that, they should find better salespeople. You hit the nail on the head. Their teams are selling website management and digital ads.

I can't believe WGRD dropped the CHR format.

Then explain, you left, ratings increased, yet Chelsea was let go. Why?

It's outstandingly bad how 95.7 and 107.3 are performing. It's really unbelievable that anyone would pay any salaries on these frequencies at this point. Plug in a satellite and call it a day.

B93 will not be airing Bobby Bones YET.

We got NPR beating WLAV before GTA 6.

Matt Gilcheck has reportedly been fired as part of the iHeartRadio Spring Cleaning.

WLHT's good showing is noteworthy, however, as that normally would be one of the stations arguably most susceptible to hemorrhaging share to Star, CSG and TRV during the holiday season. My wife can not stand Christmas Music so we ended up with WLHT on quite a bit during December, I will say that ...

Whatever they're paying Tommy Carroll isn't enough I know there aren't many six figure PDs, but if he's not already there TSM should seriously consider it as GRD's revenue potential more than warrants it. The key word there is potential, the TSM sales team has the worst broadcast conversion rate in ...
