Yes. Look to recently purchased clusters in Charlotte and Indianapolis. So far, no format or staff changes there.

I feel like they would be stupid to completely change stations that are preforming so well. Like The Eagle for example.
Not quite. CBD derived from marijuana is not legal federally, but that derived from hemp is.
Hemp is a grass. It has no hallucinogen and does not create a high. They make rope out of it, and some kinds of fabric.
You don't "hit" CBD. Most users employ either tablets, gummies or topical creams, mostly for pain relief. Hemp based CBD is legal everywhere. And any knowledgeable employer knows that CBD is a recognized and safe substance, just as things like menthol are safe. Nicotine is far more damaging that CBD is.
THC is the substance in cannabis that creates a "high" or altered state.
Yes, they are successfully running the former Emmis stations in Indianapolis. All you have to do is get the right programmers and sellers.
That's what I said. CBD does not contain THC, and is legal in all 50 states.
Precisely. And this translates into elevated ratings, because the quality content will result in more people tuning into the station, which results in higher billing. On the flip side, if you don't offer quality content, then you will lose audience share, and therefore you will have less billing. This is the primary reason KLLS failed, because music is no longer a viable format for AM, and most of the time the station was operating under a series of Silent STAs. A silent station offers zero content, and generates zero billing.
Too many fail to realize that radio is a business, and it needs to be run like any other business.
So......any BETS on when 97.1 flips to KLOVE??
Couldn't resist ... .

My guess would be late October-mid November
Too much overlap with KHJK it would not make sense
As mentioned earlier, it wouldn’t surprise me if Air1 wound up on the HD-2 to extend coverage to the north as well as being a new primary signal for the 95.3 translator in Conroe. Radio Nueva Vida is a possibility for HD-3.
There is little doubt 97.1 will be K-Love.
K-Love is their dominant format and the one that produces the most in donations. And that is the name they paid "big bucks" to get released for use in Houston.
CBD and THC are separate substances. Cannabis contains both, while hemp, of the two substances, only contains CBD.
CBD derived from cannabis is not legal in the United States. CBD extracted from hemp is.
Cannabis is a plant. Hemp is a plant. Each contain CBD, but the CBD from the cannabis plant is not legal.
I assume CBD from hemp or cannabis would show up in an employer's drug test whether THC accompanies it or not. If so, could a positive test mean trouble for an employee, or is it only THC that employers are testing for?
I have some minor pain issues and, in retirement, occasionally use CBD/THC gummies for a few hours of added comfort -- and a pleasant high. I thought about using the CBD-only gummies while I was still working, but didn't because I didn't want to risk a drug positive should I seek a new job. Could I have used them with no concerns as a working man?

You would pop on a screening the same as you would eating poppy seeds. It's not the THC in your system being tested, per se, but the AMOUNT of it in that is in your system. A few gummies will pass through your urine in a couple of days. Smoke an ounce of grass, and you're dirty for a month, at least.
Good question. I'd like to know if CBD causes a false THC test, as I've been using it for years for back pain, both in capsules and lotions.
There are several CBD only shops here. They mention "only from Hemp... no THC" in their literature, signage and websites. And at least one of them, located on "El Paseo" which is the 5th Avenue or Rodeo Drive of our market.
One such CBD shop advertises on radio and TV locally. I don't hear or see any negative comments, and this market has so little "breaking news" that any protests would have been covered amply and excessively.
But nearly all commercialized CBD comes from hemp in the US. The owner of a CBD store here mentioned that using cannabis to extract CBD destroys the THC, which is not economically smart.

This is true. You know, I have found that for my aches and pains, one bud of grass soaked inside of a bottle of isopropyl alcohol is an amazing solution to what ails me. It works wonders, and I've become a firm believer in it. I would likely fail a drug screening, but it certainly is nice to get out of bed in the mornings and not have a hard time doing it.
