Not bad!

In the span of a few years, moving from afternoon drive in Grand Rapids on a somewhat obscure station (which became more obscure after he left) to morning drive on one of the highest rated and highest billing radio stations in Detroit.

Congrats to him.

Henson...........what a dope that guy turned into ever since his WDFN days. And as far as Costa goes, good for him, I guess, I won't listen to him, but good for him.

I'm cool with it. Nice to see someone come up from the bullpen and work their way up. Congrats.

Costa has been a great hirer for the ticket. I really enjoy listening to him. He is great with Jansen when he fills in on mornings.

Really glad to see Costa work his way up the ladder and get the chance to host a show of his own. I think he'll do just fine in the morning show spot. With that said, The Ticket desperately needs at least two, I think, fill in and weekend hosts not named Brian Chapman. I'd still like to see both Sean Baligian and Matt Dery brought into the station, in addition to someone brand new.

No fan of Costa. The guy bases his opinion on whichever way the wind blows. Also, talks down to people as if he is lecturing. Count me out on this radio program.

Was there anyone that didn't think Costa was going to be the guy? It was clear from the moment he was brought in that that they were waiting for a permanent spot to open up for him. He was never weekend guy material.

I always thought he should have replaced Rieger, but Jeff serves in the key position as the station buffoon.

He really has seemed to lean into that position the past year or so.

Stoney is/was the only reason I listened since Bill McAllister left.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
