89X - shitty signal and all - had very competitive ratings against WRIF for five or six straight years until the morning show bolted. There are a lot of quality songs from the above era WRIF seldom or never plays. Excellent points regarding Alt 98.7. (You forgot to mention cancelling Lazlo's lame a...

A rock station where 80% or more of the playlist is from 1993 to 2008, with 10% pre-1993 and 10% post-2008, would sound great, in my opinion.

What do you think about 93-3 The Planet, WTPT, in upstate South Carolina?

Who??? Well it seems like Mathew here got his accounts mixed up. I'm definitely not Matt. And as they used to say in the Toledo section, "I'm not Fred" either. I think I vaguely remember this lady from WGRD. Hopefully, a shift to afternoons will take some of the pressure off. I was two paragraphs i...

It's my understanding that, so long as the check on Sima's desk clears, you can do whatever you want. I say we take up a collection and broker a few hours of programming. Let's make that happen. We can do "1090, Extreme Radio" for a few hours a week. Where's Gonzo Greg these days? Tool, Chevelle, F...

Both MW and I have said over the years that a format somewhat similar to Sirius XM's "Turbo" channel. I do believe it's time to up the span of years that count for "classic rock". These songs were burnt out and upwards of 20+ years old when *I* was a child. Come on. While I partially agree with you...

Who???

Sima should just shut down 1090, surrender the license and actually save money Walter Wolpin made a lot of money with WCAR (previously WIID) but that was many years ago. Not sure how that business model could be replicated today, but Sima isn't the guy to do it. In the early 80's, WCAR had a Christ...

During the middle of an interview segment moments ago in studio, fire alarms began blaring.

Edit: an "all clear" has been given, per Amy Lange.

Some excitement there...

It was an old building when I was there in the 90's at WWJ/WYST and it's much older now. Glitches can occur.

I don't know about a hardhat, but 'ol Joe should never leave home without a helmet. Ditto for Kamala, judging from the speeches at many of her public appearances.

She's a graduate with a Master's in Public Administration from Columbia University. So, that proves you can receive an advanced degree and still be as dumb as a rock? Someone's money well spent? 💯 Both of Biden’s press secretaries dodged questions on a regular basis. Must be the criteria to be a pr...

This thread sums it all up perfectly. The Colonel has made snide comments about people's lines of work. Ironically, 98% of construction workers are dyed-in-the-wool Trump supporters. In part because of those egghead, educated liberals, while guys like them (and me) went out and learned a trade. And...

What if Trump picks someone dumber than him, such as Kristina Karamo?

Good point. But I can't see Trump picking known RINO's like Pete Hoekstra or Fred Upton.

I really enjoyed WDET when they were music-centric during the day. Martin Bandyke, Ann Delisi, Judy Adams, Dave Dixon, etc,
I haven't listened during the week for years.

I disagree. Failure to do proper due diligence is tantamount to dispensing fake news. This was carelessness, not a simple mistake. If the only error were the misspelling of Dobry, then I'd agree with you. What if somebody thought one name, put another down by mistake and off it went? That’s a mista...
