Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees would be my first pick. Loser by Beck would be my second pick. The Mickey Mouse Club theme song would be my third pick.

Completely agree on all counts!

The interesting thing is "Jenny Says" by Cowboy Mouth received quite a bit of airplay in southern Michigan. Planet 96.3 was still playing the song in '99 as a Modern AC station.

If not Warde, who do you hire with appropriate experience and some understanding of how the university functions?

I'd hire a successful AD from another power conference school.

I will say Z93's commercial breaks are absurdly lengthy. They only play about 11 songs an hour on average, which is pitiful.

Here's an article about the discontinuation of the classic rock format and onset of K-Love programming:

Matt, do you think Warde should still be in his post?

I am surprised Renwick wasn't given the Beckmann time slot many months ago.

Then again, this is WJR we're talking about, so nothing should surprise me.

AM radio is a joke; the same industry mouthpieces defending it are the same folks rushing to put FM translators of AM stations on the air because AM is so functionally obsolescent. There are scores of NPR affiliated FM stations that broadcast 50 kW to 100 kW ERP equivalent. Seems to me those station...

Note that Ford has only made the commitment through the 2024 model year. All bets are off after that. Watch how quickly News Talk and Sports formats will turn up on full power FMs in major markets now. Many rumors say it is when, not if, these migrations will occur. I'm definitely in that camp. By 2...

GRD is worse. Trust me.

I am stunned that all sports did not succeed on KMET. I mean - look at this great coverage area!

I'm suuuure a 1 kW high band AM station has great propagation in the desert and mountains!

We'll see who replaces her. I will say 94.5 the Q was a decent accomplishment, but it's the only one that comes to mind, and frankly, I have no idea what type of biller that station is. I wonder if Brandt was offered Lori's job for less money than he was previously making? My guess is one OM/PD will...

I just reviewed the WRQN music log for the past day. I didn't see any Zeppelin and I didn't see any Metallica. The WRQN playlist has slightly less of a classic rock lean than WOMC, it seems, but nonetheless plays a substantial amount of it. I did see Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, and Def Leppard - all ...

I think Manuel needs to be replaced. What say you?

K100 makes a lot more money than 98.3 and probably sports a formidable power ratio, too. Anything to maximize K100's ratings makes complete sense to me. Of course, if Monroe County country listeners find K100 much more appealing than 98.3, that obviously diminishes 98.3's value proposition for adver...
