Your favorite Detroit airchecks from back in the day
Continuing with the great 89X air checks posted, I have to start with Alan Almond's Pillow Talk on WNIC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWQPpRTS-0A Throwback to 93.1 DRQ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBanJK4RlDo Planet 96.3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTUctfOt7HA and it wasn't that long ago...

Re: Whitmer travels out of state but....
I believe in freedom. If you are in fear, don’t go to a restaurant, theater, etc. Those who aren’t, let them decide. I know you hate freedom and want communism and a dictatorship, but I don’t. Whitmer could communicate to Biden and staffers by phone, email, Zoom, social media, etc. It’s not 1900 wh...

Re: Whitmer travels out of state but....
The messaging is indeed mixed, but Whitmer has maintained close ties to the Biden campaign since her endorsement back in the primaries. She co-chaired Biden's campaign through the general election and now co-chairs the Inaugural Committee. It's unlikely the trip is being funded on public money, but ...

Re: Fault 98.7 cannot even get its music log right...
I recently tuned into this station and listened to it for about 2 days, it sounds extremely repetitive. The very same Nirvana song was played 3 times in a day and Good Charlotte "Life styles of the rich and famous" which is a dreadful song. Hopefully after this mess falls to a 0.9 in the ratings, W...

Re: Roberta Kaplan: The Trump Hunter
There's no way you can put Biden and Trump in the same boat. Every president has had some transgression of some sort, but no one had the same level of contempt for norms and the rule of law then Trump. His behavior was so abhorrent, that even though his administration started out with a competent, w...

Re: BLM riot at the Capitol
I know this post is cheesy, but this "us vs them" framework is so toxic. No matter our political leanings, most of us share basic commonalities. These commonalities *should* include contempt for violence, particularly threats for violence against lives, livelihoods, and property (in my view, priorit...

Re: Walls Do Work... Now
Hopefully this wall is just a temporary solution given the current environment. It would be a shame if the People's House installs a permanent barrier. Otherwise, I hope this bill does not make it out of committee.

Re: Masks don't work.
Lockdowns don't slow the spread. So finds a peer-reviewed article published early last week: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eci.13484 Conclusion?

Re: Anti Trump Jimmy Fallon Failing
I used to think Conan O'Brien was the most obnoxious late night host on television; and at the same time, I was a H*** fan of the Colbert Report when it was on Comedy Central. I don't get the same satisfaction from Colbert on CBS, but I do find myself laughing at Conan these days. He has great comed...

Re: Local on-air pers. in the movies
The set of WDIV was used for the purpose of being a local news station in Oklahoma broadcasting severe weather coverage in the flop "Into The Storm." My memory may be failing me, but I think it was Chuck Gaidica tracking the storms on air in that movie. And of course, Howard Stern played himself in ...

Re: TC Talks - what do you have against white people?
Nice first post jadednihilist. I would submit that what many people refer to as racism has much less to do with skin color and more to do with nationality, behavior and culture. I've spent a fair amount of time in the Dominican Republic. Dominican's are VERY racist toward Haitians even though they ...

Re: TC Talks - what do you have against white people?
Long time lurker, first time poster here - and my apologies in advance for making this a long post. bmw, I appreciate you dedicating a thread towards discussions on race because this is a much needed conversation. Since race is ultimately one of the most polarizing and vitriolic topics that separate...
