One of my moles on the inside tells me that Audacy Detroit is becoming a difficult place to work.

Whatever the problem was with KT, they should have worked it out. The place is clearly turning into a revolving door.

According to Obama the Great, you can still be a brat at 26. Looking across the street from my house, there are two "brats" living at home, at 32 and 36. Sad...

The AM will be "bonus land" for $5 spots, and throwaway programming like high school sports. Tens of listeners will be tuned in.

I remember when Jeff Kortes bought the Lakeville FM in a fire sale deal.

One thing that hasn't changed....
"Sitting in for Paul W is..."

Gagnon's first WCAR show was on Sept. 6, 1985. I found a 1988 article which says he already had 20 years of experience by then.

I'm trying to remember if Joe was on WIID, prior to it taking the WCAR calls. He's been around.

Joe said he was removed from WAAM because Thayrone's late wife said he was boring. He went to WTKA after that, then back to WJR if my memory is correct. I think he was on 1400 at one point too. They'd take him, but Joe would have to pay there too. I never heard that he was on WTKA. But that doesn't...

OKC lacks classic rock on a full market signal, unbelievably. It can only be found on a crappy translator owned by Tyler Media (ever since being demoted from 107.7 KRXO, which itself is now a Sports station). iFart is fucking stupid if it flips to 94.7 to anything other than Classic Rock. Maybe Pod...

WJR will probably fill the time slot with even more garbage paid programming. Mark Hollis' show just came on. Thirty seconds in, I'm already bored to tears. Changing the channel. The guy has zero charisma and cannot even string together a coherent thought. How does WJR's incompetent PD still have a...

they almost make XKR and RQN look NOT stale. Almost. At least on the latter two stations on the weekend you'll run into Organic X with deeper cuts or old Casey Kasem shows. IOT is just You Shook Me All Night Long, Pour Some Sugar On Me, Sweet Child of Mine, Home Sweet Home, lather, rinse, repeat 19...

Of course Mitchell Baum makes it about himself

I don't see that at all from reading the story. You're the only one who's making this about Mitch.

Get over it. Perhaps it's time to seek help from a mental health professional.

Fred Heumann was kicked out of there a few years ago under vague circumstances....and Audrey took right over.... I worked with Fred years ago. He's a great talent, and by all rights, he should still be in Detroit. I'll never understand how he ended up back in Lansing. I like your observations about...

Bryce sure does a fine job of keeping topics on track. I think Alinsky talks about the "derailing topics and 'whataboutism'" tactic in "Rules For Radicals"... And to bring this full circle… radicals are what much of the right has become the last few years. Sure, it's always "the right" who are seen...

The Forrester Hill FMs would be a good fit for Smile FM and/or Relevant Radio

No thanks.

Dead air would be better than either of those options.

Perhaps Mr. Yob has a plan. Or a buyer.

From the way things look, Roy doesn't have either one. Anyone hearing a dead carrier from "high atop Forrester Hill"?

And you know this for sure? Of course not. Just like no one for sure can know if the attack would have still happened if Big Orange was still in office. Next the Trumpophiles will say with total conviction that 9-11 wouldn't have happened if he were in office. At least you are good for a laugh. Wor...
