Re: Heather's delivery of the news on 97.1

97.1 is generally brutal. Does anyone care about Costas opinion on last nights draft? I can't listen to Costa. He's not interesting, and I feel like he's lecturing me all of the time. Unlistenable. As far as Heather goes, they can deep six her tomorrow for all I care. She comes off as a total idiot...

Regarding all of the complaints about Brandon Roux, do you actually think Bryan Schuerman is any better? The way that he’s playing Chicken Little about Sunday’s predicted marginal (level 1) storms is a little dramatic. It’s going to be a long summer with the dramatics, if he’s playing up the lowest ...

Schuerman

Is he the chief meteorologist on Local 4 now (lol)? He seems to be on-air more than any of the others. It seems like Kim’s been off a lot lately. And where’s the new guy (Ron Hilliard)?

V98.7 RIP

After more than 27 years, Smooth Jazz V98.7is done - on terrestrial radio from 1995-2009, and online until last week. Before PPM, I believe they consistently got good ratings, and appealed to a wide demographic. Sandy Kovach was excellent, IMO. On Audacy, when you enter V98.7, it leads you to their ...

My CSX and iRiff

Circa 2003 or so, does anyone remember when the services were offered by Greater Media? Kind of a precursor to Pandora, where you could stream music from CSX and Riff, and tweak the sound in terms of music familiarity or rarity.

Nothing like having voicetracked superstars like Johnny ‘Rock’ Lassman on CSX, touting “Lake HerrRONN” as the city of the week. :rollin

Re: Detroit Nielsen numbers for radio - January 2023

Maybe the reason that WOMC dropped is because the song library seems to have gotten even smaller since the holidays? I’d be amazed if the library was much over 200 these days.

Re: Major snowstorm brewing

Prediction of weather happenings in general seem scarily accurate sometimes these days. AccuWeather was predicting a mess (for 2/22, 2/23) like the one scheduled for tomorrow way back in late January…

Meteorologists at 4

Are there any true meteorologists (with certification) at Local 4 anymore? Last week Tuesday Kim Adams was talking about last Thursday’s high winds while showing wind graphics for Tuesday. This happened a few times on Tuesday. Also if you read Ashlee’s weather forecast on ClickonDetroit, it often is...

Re: Some drama at Loco 4

Why does Kim Adams have to call all instances of snow, “snowstorms?” She’s calling for a snowstorm on Friday (one inch predicted), and one on Sunday (2-3 inches, mostly Sat PM). Ugh

Re: Paul Gross Retiring from WDIV

I thought Paul had retired already. I saw a report on ClickOnDetroit from him today. As per his usual hype, he’s calling for two snowstorms next week, including one Sunday that will get us about 1 inch of snow.

WOMC

Discussion somewhere at Audacy HQ; Programmer: “The latest Nielsens have 104.3 down to a 5.3….What shall we do?” Consultant: “Cut the library from 275 down to 175, and be sure to play “Don’t Stop Believin’” and “Free Fallin’” every three hours! And make sure the jock content is boring, and drown the...

-Is it just me, or does it seem like Kim Adams is out more than she’s on? -With the predicted storm for late next week, we will be sure to see Paul Gross calling for the end of the world. He’s very smart when it comes to weather, but he really goes for the dramatics. I miss Andrew Humphrey. He was a...

Re: I disagree with our weather forecasters on TV

Most of the forecasters didn’t predict today’s weather too well, IMO. With the Wind Advisory set for 1AM-1PM, the winds weren’t at advisory level until closer to 7AM, and lessened by 10AM when the advisory was dropped. The only advisory/warning level winds came between 7-8AM with the cold front. At ...

Re: Favorite Short Lived Format

WDTX under Harper: Late ‘85 to mid ‘86.

WOMC: Late 1989 (active AC with oldies). Loved Kevin O’Neill in morning drive.

WOMC: Most of 2008 when Ted Richards handled PM drive time.

WDFX: Summer 1988 - Active Top 40.
