The hot AC stunting kicked in this morning, along with Murphy and Lise Dominique. No news or traffic just yet. Using the same "101.1 FM--New" slogan as in New York (where it's 101.9), along with similar women actualities as in New York. No jingles like in New York. There is a sweep voiced by Murphy that says "101.1 FM--New--and Fresh." I guess they figured that CBS isn't going to fight, considering that their Fresh will be history in two weeks. No traffic or news yet, and Murphy broke what seems to be one of the big rules for Wacky Morning Team radio by doing the weather instead of Lise doing it, as the rulebook seems to insist that the weather is the female sidekick's job.
The chocolate theme/inside joke on the NY morning show continued here, with Murphy asking for an "official chocolatier" for the show. I also would've sworn that at lunchtime I heard the words "Chocolate FM" at the end of a sweep.
Music is uptempo and rock-leaning, for the most part. With the exception of a couple of Mellencamp and Steve Nicks cuts, nothing that probably wasn't already in Q101's gold rotation. More recent that what NY is playing (I heard both this morning and at lunch the Fray's "How to Save a Life" and Plain White Ts' "Message of Love").
