Because throwing a bunch of well-tested songs on the air does not make a radio station

They are in an extremely tough spot, no doubt, but When the subject comes up will they be leaving the room? This is not a story thats going away by next week, especially the longer U of M drags this out. The school needs to worry about the victims and not a couple of radio hosts. Sweeping this under...

He's been there this week. Taking a Friday off in June is common and probably has nothing to do with this topic.

Well the other Michigan broadcaster, Doug Karsch, is out today too.

That's very interesting.

They both know they can't say a thing about it, so best to take today off, right?

Question on Friday, June 11th. Has John Jansen been out this week? I hear Stoney & Rigor today. If he's been there all week it's a convenient day off after the Matt Schembechler press conference.

ALT 98.7 is just milquetoast. No imagination..........no style.......no flair.......no risks.......... Hey, let's just throw a bunch of well-testing records on the air and we'll get ratings ! That's not how it works 98.7 is the absolute definition of bad radio and why so many music stations suck. Th...

Any way to find out the 25-54 or 18-34 numbers?

Why the fuck does Entercom even want to be in this business? They'll never make enough to cover their debts.

Radio is local. Pure and simple. Always has been, always will be.

They could pretty much fire every local talent and still it won't be enough.

Do Brian Chapman and Dan Leach even fill in anymore? I don't think I've heard them in a long time.

I believe they were both let go recently - they worked for Entercom and that's what Entercom does.

WE CUT PAYROLL !

Did you turn any profit?

NO, BUT WE CUT PAYROLL SO WE WIN, RIGHT?

If you heard how he sounded on Monday you could tell he wasn't doing okay...............But I was hoping it was just the treatment.

This absolutely sucks. One of the nicest guys in the business.

Jamie came on (from home) today to announce he's been battling colon cancer since January 2019. He sounds so wiped out. I thought maybe he had COVID-19. Jamie is a really good guy, I hope he recovers from this.

I'm genuinely curious, Craig. What makes you think that about him? Listening to him interact with Terry Foster for years, Tony Ortiz and the studio guy named David somebody I think. It's nothing I can pinpoint and I'm not accusing him just wondering out loud. But I didn't realize this Rico guy is a...

Not a fan. Jeez, if the only qualification was skin color I'd rather they went with Chapman. https://media2.giphy.com/media/l0MYEwLJpJApzhkje/giphy.gif?cid=ecf05e476q8nm1be1180v3b31e9rsuyfvbkw0ovpmoaeghb2&rid=giphy.gif I never said that the only qualification or that was the reason he was hired. I ...

How you can have a sports station on the air in the city of Detroit with NO black hosts? Am I missing something about Rico? No, it's just the station has not had a 6a - 12m black host since Terry Foster left - what, 3 years ago? And they really only had 1 since then - in the overnight with Brian Ch...

The professional players get paid, they have unions to represent them. These college players don't have those protections - and that's why we won't have college football in the Fall this year. We could have it in the Spring, but that's rather doubtful too. Thanks to inaction by our President and the...
