Our buddy Jim Hughes this morning said 96 was backed up from 96 to a road east (I can't remember offhand, maybe Wyoming?) How can 96 be backed up at itself? I'm assuming he means the express/local lane split, but you have to point that out, which Scott Ryan correctly did later on.

Unfortunately he makes a lot of little mistakes like that.

Somebody tell O’Neil Stevens US-23 between I-96 and Silver Lake Road is not in Washtenaw County. If you refuse to learn the area, at least read an online map correctly.

Ah, yes. The never ending construction project.

Say what you will.. WWJ has been seeing some of its best ratings in years, and is more than happy with its roster. People are listening. A solid new morning traffic anchor starts later this month.

You think it's OK for traffic anchors to have no idea of the area they serve?

I keep hearing this new traffic reporter rumor, but all I actually hear is "Tina Marie" and the horrid Jim Hughes.

I believe you're referring to Michelle Pena. She started this week. Always found her delivery to be professional.

Is she new? I've heard her on the other Audacy stations doing traffic, just not on WWJ until now.

Yes. Promoted to mornings on WWJ. But a veteran traffic anchor for Audacy. Very well liked internally too (as are all their traffic people). Afternoons has someone new too I believe. Cant remember her name.

Aricka McCauley is in afternoons. Specs graduate in 2011.. worked in Port Huron, Fort Wayne and bounced around the various stations in town with apparently much on air work at WOMC.

Scott Ryan should be the afternoon guy. He’s very knowledgeable with the area. I wonder if that was even considered.

He has been doing middays the past few days… I always thought he was the evening guy?
