That’s a heck of a run. Major respect to anyone who does that in any field.
Did anyone happen to notice B101 no longer has an afternoon (2-7) person listed on their site?
Looks like Mark Shepperd is out, again. Surprised there was no real announcement. Either downsizing or (potentially) related to COVID measures (I.e. lack of vaccination).
Didn't see that previously at all.
Plus there's now a night person, Laura Boss, holding 7-Midnight. She's at least local! Not sure if VT'd or live.
EDIT: VT'd. She left WXTU to take the Morning Show producer position previously held by Nate Weaver, who left for the iHeart Delaware cluster.
And speaking of all of the Audacy music stations, several lineup changes across the board
So now WOGL and WTDY will only have local talent in AM drive.
WBEB will be live mornings, local but most likely tracked middays, maybe live afternoons, and tracked nights.
How much did they spend on those new, showcase studios and offices?
Not sure but is only 12-2 voice tracked on B? I thought Tafrow just “stuck around” after 10 for the extra two hours. Could be way off, but having been in a dentist lately (how stereotypical) passing the time, that was my impression. 🤷🏻♂️ Nights of course also voice tracked. I get that.
Add in the spoken word stations and of course you’ve got KYW and WIP effectively always live, and WPHT is up to what…9 hours a day now?
Seems like the Beasley studios get a little more use in their updated digs. Ben not withstanding 😊.

KYW pre-records overnight (and did they bring back overnight traffic? That was a COVID casualty for a while on many Audacy News stations). And does WIP have someone there overnight? I truly don't know, as the website just says "Overnights.' Not sure if that is live, or they're airing best-ofs.. and I'm never awake then to find out. ha!)
Ok, the few hours of pre recorded but still…that’s darn close to a full day. 😃
I don’t know for sure what WIP did with the late Big Daddy Graham slot. For a while at least, the switch from CBS to Entercom meant ditching the week to week schedules of shows with varying hosts in favor of the useless generic stuff the have now. “Nights and weekends” being a catch all for the various part timers they use to round things out.

Remember, it's possible to be "live in the studio" from anywhere in the world now. Physical location used to be a technical and cost-based requirement and that is not the case today.
Domino will be doing both shows from Orlando.
