Re: And now, a classic aircheck from 104.5 WSNX from January 1995

WSNX was already reporting to Radio & Records as a Grand Rapids market station by January '95. Keith Curry was their music director at this time and would later work in the same capacity at WDRQ in Detroit. Mark McGill was the PD.

Re: Yet again, MW

Not for one second do I believe that "Sugar" is Black. Their posts smack of blackface. I'm starting to think Sugar is LL and keto is that Kevin what's-his-name that posted under about 50 different monikers here. Or vice versa. Whatever, we'll just have to wait for the moderator to spray the mosquito...

Re: February Ratings for G.R.

Expressing an opinion is one thing. Using a slur (like "tranny", which I consider as bad as the n-word) is another. We get enough of that from a certain parasite whom the moderator has yet to eliminate. That's all I'll say about that. With that out of the way... WCSG wins because it is the closest t...

Re: WWJ 950

There is a Clinton near Adrian. Interesting. I've never thought of Clinton in relation to Adrian but I suppose it makes sense. Since I've lived in either Ypsilanti or Ann Arbor for most of my life to me its always been that cute little town 12 miles SE of Saline. :blink That would be Milan. Clinton...

Re: Pay Movie Channels Bumpers and ID's from the 80s and 90s

Our neighbors to the north (or south) had First Choice (debut 1983 - later First Choice-Superchannel, later The Movie Network, now Crave), which recycled some of HBO's pre-HBO-in-Space idents used from 1979-82 (with different music). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYIA6R_a6yU However, prior to HBO ...

Re: I guess local TV stations no longer broadcast weather warnings?

I missed the earthquake... I was serving as best man in a wedding not far from Chicago that weekend, and didn't feel a thing. Funnily regarding earthquakes and tornadoes, we just passed the 49th anniversary of April 3, 1974, and both occurred in the Midwest that day. 4.5, near Olney, Illinois. If yo...

Re: I guess local TV stations no longer broadcast weather warnings?

I've heard a story about something that happened at the old WBRB in Mount Clemens... they'd had reports of a tornado I was visiting a friend inside - it was a partly cloudy day. It started to sprinkle and the power went out. Ambulance went by - I assumed it was wreck. The next day we found out a tor...

Re: Judge Mathis / People's Court canceled

And now there's talk of Judge Judy bringing her Freevee series "Judy Justice" to syndication. Meanwhile, CBS' "Judge Judy" reruns are still killing it in the ratings. If a deal for "Judy Justice" happens, she'll essentially be competing with herself. I wonder how "Hot Bench" is faring with the two n...

Re: Segregationists In Allendale

Maybe because they need a safe space where they won't be harassed by people like Bryce who want to erase them from the face of the earth.
