This is ridiculous.

They had a GREAT lineup of local flavor.

 

6 to 8 - Dave Ragone and Scott Padgett

8 to 10 - Bob Valvano & Will Wolford

1 to 3 Rick Bozich & Zach McRite

3 to 5 Freak Show

 

Jodie Demling had his own show in the evening. If anyone hears where these shows end up, please post it hear.

 

Joe B and Denny are great, but I have not been able to get into the new morning show with John L. and whoever?

 

:fire:

That's wild. Really the only sports station I listen to.

This is ridiculous.

I was told about this yesterday but wasn't sure where to post on BGP.

 

At this time I was told Jody, Bozich and Freak don't have a home. Dave/Scott and Bob/Will may move to 1450AM (another cumulus station). Not sure why they would do that because that station does not have great reach. I feel bad for some of these people because it was the only job they had.

 

Joe B/Denny make me sleepy after 10 minutes. Give John L and Drew Deener a few more listens they may come to grow on you. Unless your not a John L fan.

 

Will keep you posted on what I find out next.

This much I know (from a very good source): two television stations are working on stories that may name someone in the Louisville community as having unduly used his influence to remove some of the 93.9 hosts from the airwaves. Stuff may surface in the next few days. Stay tuned...

That didn't last long...

Is Tom Jurich involved in this in any way?

That's what I'm hearing. There's talk that he personally prevented the hosts from gaining access to people involved with any university sport and I even heard he was beginning to bring pressure to bear on some of the sponsors. It really doesn't put Jurich in a good light. I hope his involvement is exaggerated.

 

In any case, I'm really going to miss this station. I was a huge fan of Dave and Scott early in the morning and I really liked some other shows as well.

 

Any word on where Trinity football is going to land now that the station is no longer sports? I know IU football already has a new home on AM.

What did Bob V always say at the end of his show. "I'll be here tomorrow unless someone knows something different". That show they talked way too much and only gave callers seconds. Some dude named Andy got a lot more time, and I don't understand why.

 

John L and Deener... are fine, but how will John L. do during basketball season? EXACTLY

 

Bozich show was Ok, was imformative and had nice guests.

 

Freak just moved to a new apartment.

 

Didn't listen to Jody except in the car, nice guy.

 

Dave and Scott argued too much and talked too fast for me.

 

1450 can't get here near Mt. Washington

 

Will like the Oldies/Rock format.

UL isn't on Cumulus down there is it? If not I don't see how Jurich is going to strong arm a major radio company...

I was just getting into Dave and Scott. While they do argue a lot, I think that is what I liked about them. THey sounded like me with a couple of my freinds having a beer.

 

I was not big on Valvano, but I liked what Will brought to the show.

 

Bozich and McRite I thought did a nice job.

 

It boils down to local vs national. I prefer to hear about what is going on in our area.

 

There were several callers that ate up to much of the air time on MOST all of the shows.

Andy, Carolina Steve, and a couple of others. But it gave you something to make fun of later.

 

I hope that Jurich is not involved. BUT...........

 

Hopefully some other station has the ........ ability to bring these shows back and get this area back on local sports radio!!

I heard the same regarding Jurich.

 

Think back over to 970 AM.

No, they WKRD 790. Who knows how the other would be possible?

Yes, I heard that from a very good source a couple of weeks ago. It is a sad day for Louisville radio and this gives TJ yet another black eye. His child like antics are getting old.

Trinity High School football radio broadcasts will move to AM 970 WGTK starting Friday, Nov. 21. This was home to Trinity Football for the past few years, before they moved to the ESPN affiliate this season.

From what I was told by "a good source".....this was straight corporate with Cumuluus (sp?) . . .the numbers weren't there, and corporate just doesn't care. It will be an oldies station tomorrow.
