Re: Nielsen audio AQH shares for April
I think Phil Tower may have initially hosted mornings immediately following the flip to classic rock. Correct me if I'm wrong about that. Red Noize (or one of his other names) was the morning guy when LAV made the switch to Classic Rock. Then the Evening Guy (he was a Math Teacher) and Tracy Forner...

Did they air the same broadcast that was on Peacock?

Re: New MC5
Echoing other comments, to play the MC5 might involve bumping "Dust in the Wind" or the prog rock stylings of Yes. Classic Rock programmers can't risk alienating listeners by not playing these essential tracks.

Re: Nielsen audio AQH shares for April
I think Greg and others may be discounting what Tony Gates meant to LAV from a ratings standpoint. Yeah maybe, but isn't that an indictment then that the playlist is garbage? At the end of the day, most people listen to a music station for the music. If your scenario is true, that tells you that To...

Re: No wonder crime is up in the Grand Rapids area...
I was more or less agreeing MW's thoughts. Sorry, I wasn't trying to derail this discussion. I really haven't dug that deep in the Trump hush money case yet, but I still know don't who was hurt by the payment/misclassification. They are meritless, and the trial was a joke. The idea that Trump is gu...

Re: No wonder crime is up in the Grand Rapids area...
I am very sorry to hear that happened to your friend. Judges, soft prosecutor offices, and parole board members who let dangerous thugs out of prison due to absurdly light sentences need to be held to account. While this is all horrible, have you looked at how the criminal justice system budget wor...

Re: Does anyone doubt that Trump would carry out his promise to be a dictator on day 1?
But the "cult" theory still doesn't explain all the luke-warm Trump voters that will show up. That you *think* will show up. The rest of us with clear sight are not seeing that. It’s early for our annual yard sign unscientific poll but I saw far fewer Trump flags while meandering around nowhere tod...

Re: Does anyone doubt that Trump would carry out his promise to be a dictator on day 1?
The only thing I know is that we will never see a Nixon '72 or Reagan '84 ever again. I think even Mondale's mom voted for Reagan in 1984. It will continue to be the usual suspects in blue and in red, a surprise and a down-to-the-wire outcome. TL;dr: we're fucked. Until enough Boomers die off that’...

Re: I finally did it!!! I dumped Xfinity for video service in favor of YouTubeTV!
Making the switch soon from Spectrum to YouTubeTV. Any updates here? Congrats, you will be happy you made the switch. It may take a minute to get used to the concept of not "channel surfing", but once you get used to how the app works you will love it. Just the ease of being able to watch on your p...

Re: Goodrich looks to transfer WPRR FM 90.1 to Tyrone Bynum
Rural Allegan County is certainly a weird place to put a radio station whose original purpose was to air primarily programming from Pacifica. The city of Allegan (population ~5,000) was the largest town within the predicted 50 dBu contour. Allegan is also barely within the predicted 60 dBu contour....

Re: How much jail time will Trump get?
Have seen several social media posts today from MAGA types calling for the official start of the New Civil War. Wish I could say I'm surprised but I'm not. Considering the vast majority of Trump cultists are either morbidly obese, mental simpletons, elderly, and/or Karens, I'm pretty confident the ...

Re: Catholic Priests continue to Rape Children
Yeah, this thread is a bad look. Catholics are not bible thumpers and tend not to push their religion on others. We have a more traditional view of religion and are smart enough to know that Gospels written decades after Jesus died are not literal. Are you Catholic? How bout that... so am I. TC's p...

Agreed. Seems that without even trying, they should at least be able to grab a 2.5 with that format.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2024 5:15 pm
It takes incredible talent to earn such terrible numbers with COUNTRY on a 50,000 watt signal in West Michigan. A nonstop loop of flatulence would earn stronger numbers on 107.3.
