The Bet, on 97.1?

Post by BKRPDM » Thu Aug 25, 2022 8:31 pm

Seriously, 97.1 couldn’t find anyone to host a slow Thursday night, so they’re simulcasting 1270 The Bet??

I wonder what Pat Caputo was up to?

This was probably a mistake. 97.1 should have been running the CBS Sports programming during that timeframe.

I worked for 1270 when Chuck Fritz owned it, and later on, when Infinity took over. I never imagined that facility would one day be the waste of electricity it is today.

I believe Flagg is referencing 1270, not 97.1.

That's correct. My apologies, for not being clear on that.

BetQL = garbage filler programming.
CBS Sports Radio = garbage filler programming.

Both earn terrible ratings and are likely to induce immediate tune out. Does it really matter which feed 97.1 uses?
Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.

For sure it would make a difference for me. I don't listen to CBS Sports Radio a lot but I can certainly tolerate it. There is zero chance I would stay for The Bet.

You’d think that there would be a producer, call screener or intern eager to get a shot at filling in for a shift.

so you never foresaw how the almost ALL AM stations that were once glorious, became a "pile of poop" -


Think of AM stations from "back in the day" in Metro Detroit, and tell me two that are doing it BETTER now....
