106.1 The Breeze

Well, we certainly didn't have anyone playing "Angel of the Morning" by Juice Newton. Yet to be seen whether we needed it. LOL.

I wasn't expecting anything quite THIS soft. I hope they put some local research behind this or I can see them having another big old bust on their hands!

BTW: They followed Juice Newton with "Perfect" by P!nk. Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. So I'm just gonna switch back to B101 now...

Well, I just wrote a whole thing here but it when I clicked to post it, it was just a blank screen so I guess it's lost. I was saying that I took the opportunity today to peruse the Breeze playlist and it seems they've finally gotten it together. I still don't understand why they came outta the gate with so much schmaltz and I guess I never will. But what they're doing now looks almost entirely listenable. If I find myself in a car anytime soon, I imagine I'll bounce between 98.1, 101.1 and 106.1.

Looking ahead ten months (to probably the next time anything remotely interesting happens in Philly radio), do we think that iHeart is gonna keep letting B101.1 have the Christmas audience all to themselves? I understand what they were going for by launching during Christmas 2018 (though the logic is questionable and I suppose the Holiday Book will let us know if it was remotely effective) but going forward, does it make sense to just sit out the Christmas boom? Personally, I couldn't care less because I've never heard an iHeart Christmas station that I didn't think sucked. But it's still a valid question.

You mean, Michael Bolton has been dropped from their active playlist? (kidding of course)
 
Don't know if this means anything but I have been going to this certain Arbys in Marlton on Maple Avenue at least once a week for close to 10 years. They always had the B blasting through the audio system, I would be surprised that even during Christmas they kept it on with the Christmas music. Today, I was shocked to hear the Breeze playing, this place never ever changed the station. I asked the manager about this and she said the main manager changed it, he got tired of that other station she said. If this is the future trend I think WOGL is in alot of trouble....
