Was reading a profile of Shep after the announcement was leaked last night. He’s apparently a workaholic who sleeps very little. Said that he was doing the Tigers telecasts last fall, would go home when they were done but work until 1am prepping for the next days telecast. He’d be back up at 4am for...

In my opinion, the Tigers letting Max Scherzer walk away into free agency has to be right up there. You have to remember one thing - we offered him a 6 year, $144 million dollar contract and he turned us down in no time. He was looking at taxes and DC was his best bet. Additionally, he moved to the...

Starting to think that Shep WON’T be the play by play announcer considering that he was just announced to be the new morning host for a statewide morning sports show....

While I know that they would never do this in Detroit because of WCSX, Beasley just flipped a Tampa AC station to a “next generation of classic rock” station. https://987theshark.com/stream/WPBBFM/ Looking at their playlist, this is a station I’ll listen to when I’m down there in March. Currently st...

Are you sure Tantric has a song with that title? There was an obscure post-grunge band from the mid or late 90's with a song by that title (KLQ used to play it), but I never remember Tantric having a single with that title. You’re right - just did further digging - it’s by the band Tonic. Memory is...

TC - I listened to Bob’s station online yesterday for the first time in a while (I can pick them up OTA somewhat depending on weather conditions). Heard Tonic’s “Open up your eyes” being played. Haven’t heard that song in a long time but it’s 15+ years old. I like that oh wow factor like that - some...

Meg is doing whatever she can to keep a job. After dropping the 7:00 newscasts, she is not in demand as she once was. In January, look for her to go to weekends before fading into oblivion.

Meg needs to jump to either 12 or 25/66 when her contract with 5 expires...

You have got to be kidding me.

I’ve been watching Christina on the mornings since she replaced Johnny Mac. She doesn’t come across as overly dramatic or over hyped at all.

TV5, on the other hand, takes the cake on drama queens and kings doing weather....

Bring back WLLZ and program it as a early 70’s - early 90’s based classic rock with a wider playlist than WCSX...

Can’t believe no one picked up on this. Then again, maybe because no one is listening is the reason they did this:

I also thought Trudi was up in TC working.

Heard on the radio today that the ratings for the SNL episode on 2/11 with Alec Baldwin as the host were the highest in 22 years. Only three of the skits were political (so like 20% of the show)...

GOOD! You? Nothing has been going on that's noteworthy in TV and radio here. Next topic I'm anticipating is whenever the new morning show on Z93 that replaces Joe Volk starts Then it'll be who switches to Christmas music first - Mix 106, The Bay or maybe WHNN. Then - hopefully - is when WHNN dumps t...
