I've come to believe that when Ron has a "falling out," he doesn't keep it a secret, vis-a-vis Bob Page, Grant Hudson and most lately George Eichorn.
What was the dust up with Grant Hudson about? That has to be a good one.

Ron Cameron was on WCAR in late 80s

Hey at least they're peaceful. As opposed to when the left protests things, they break things, steal things, and start fires. https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1578133/Minneapolis_Riot.jpg?w=800 :rollin :rollin :rollin That's right, I forgot January 6th was " a bunch of Patriots touring the Capitol....

Someone did lease it out several years back. “The Switch” playing rap and hip hop. I think it lasted a month.
I remember that.

I also remember "Bonds & Fisher" (both R.I.P) on in the afternoon for a season or two, with help from Rachel Nevada.

Re: WLLZ Continues Doing It

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?

Re: 1090am WCAR

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...

Re: WLLZ Continues Doing It

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...

Re: 1090am WCAR

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.

Re: Dementia Joe at it again

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.
