I managed to gag my way thru 20 minutes of Imus this morning before I had to switch stations. At least Dallas is on Kicks in the mornings now...but that Cadillac dude is gonna take some getting used to. Didn't hear much personality from him today.

Good gosh...could Imus of sucked up any more to the black audience this morning. Seemed like the entire show was focused on him proving he was a good "open minded" radio host.

There likely is not one real person still working at that studio. All the programming will be bought from outside sources and fed to the Atlanta station. This is the wave of the future. Before long, there will be no local radio, and every station will be programmed from a handful of sources. It's a lot cheaper to pay for effluvia like Imus than it is to pay real people to put good programming on the air. It's all a matter of dollars.

106.7 plays too many commercials. I understand having the pay the bills but good grief.

I REALLY hate to see Rhubarb leave!
He did a lot of work for lukemia research in Georgia and as many of you know, that is real close to my heart.
My wife was on his show a couple of times to help put things in perspective.
He is a good man!

Yea Spiff ! Use to love listening to Randy and Spiff. Guess I need to change my dial again. What they call "country" now is getting on my nerves. Country now days is old pop.

Fair enough. But when i'm not listening to a CD or something that's what i've learned to listen to. What other options are there anymore?

no imus for me. B98.5 is pretty good drive time.
on the 'net "cafecody.com" is a good feed if ya like background music.
it ain't southern rock, but it's uplifting.
Yep. like i said though, usually it's CD, Tape, ipod or talk radio. Sometimes i'll listen to 94.9 the bull or 106.1 in the mornings though.
