WFBC flip coming?

Earth FM is not coming back. That was an extreme anomaly run by a company that doesn’t specialize in non-religious music formats. No other major radio operator, and certainly none of the 3 in GSP would do something like that.
 
rolls eyes... i love seeing the message board peeps go wild with unfettered speculation with no info to go on and wholly incorrect info. it does actually make me chuckle
 
As of right now they’re not really running any liners other than the ones promoting 9/23 at 7am during Hawk and Tom for the (all kinds of adjectives) change, hinting that B93.7 will be turning the page, changing, etc.

They must be having fun with us because a post on the social media page says “not a cash contest, but good guess.” 🤣

C’mon man - let people have some fun. Laughing at people isn’t fun.
 
I would like to see them flip to an AC format to fill the void since the demise of Earth and Magic. No good AC choices in the Upstate anymore except where Mix 107.9 can be received from Charlotte. Would be a better fit for an aging Hawk and Tom, and their current CHR format seems to be declining and a bit stale, Plus you also have 98.1, and in some areas 95.1 and 96.1 from Charlotte to serve that segment. Time for a change at B93.7. Flip to something new or bring back the Magic!

I remember WFBC being AC back when WSPA-FM was beautiful music.
 
That’s either a strong hint as to what’s going to happen, or they’re playing with the radio nerds.

If it’s not a contest, which it apparently isn’t, just seems too perfect and coincidental - re-launch Magic, say you listened to the audience, let it run for a month or so then hop in to Christmas. I’ll be the first to admit if I’m wrong, but I’ve said repeatedly, I can’t see Audacy giving up Christmas music.

They used Hawk and Tom for the liners about being sad Magic was going away and redirecting them to their show on 93.7. B93.7 appears to have gotten zero listeners from Magic going away. It all went to The Lake. A lot of people listening at 7am are probably listening for Hawk and Tom who are obviously staying, more than the music, and could provide a good segue in to the new format if that’s indeed the case. Many of us have said for years H&T fit better with AC than CHR at this point.

The above “hint” was deleted, I wonder if they caught heat for listing names. It was replaced with this, obviously referring to the late Earth FM.

Because of all the puns from Shorty, I suspect it's NONE of what they want you to think. The won't put Magic or The Block on 93.7. Earth I'd DEFINITELY not an option.

Now, I'm leaning toward some sort of silly contest
