I doubt it's a rumor. I heard it from an American radio personality.
Personally I'd be surprised 104.3 would be considering this if half the stories of how difficult he is to work with are true.

Thanks for the heads up. I will NOT be listening to WOMC then.

I know Audacy and CEO David Field hate having live and local radio on their music stations. I wonder if the morning show replacement is just a voicetracked DJ from out of market or something syndicated?

Radio and TV people who are difficult to work with? Surely, that can't be true. :rolleyes

If he does that on the morning show, it might actually gain listeners and engagement lol

So I assume he'll be taking over for JJ, then?
If JJ "retired", along with Stoney, because of budgetary reasons, I wonder what the pay differential is between his old TV gig and a morning radio host newbie?

At this point, it's still an unsubstantiated rumor. One of Drew's groupies heard from a friend of a friend.

Does Cheap Channel have the willingness to finally bring in a live and local morning show and hire JJ as their new morning show host on WLLZ? They've never invested in a live morning show at 106.7 going all the way back to The D when it was Alan Cox. Even now with Spencer Graves and whoever it was before him, they were voicetracked. I say hire JJ and and pair him with Trudy Daniels and then either bump Anne Carlini to middays or bring in Juline Jordan to fill the midday shift.

I'm just conjecturing here.
But I think Mr. Johnson has decided to retire.

If he still wanted to work in radio, I'm thinking he would of just stayed put.
Not pull up stakes at 'OMC and then turn around and get behind a microphone elsewhere.

There's a possibility that Jim Bentley joins Carr as co-host.

Did some googling.
Other than the Drew Basement Podcast, where else has Bentley worked?

Bentley spent time at 97.1 with Valenti, and prior to that with the on the air D&M show at riff.
