570 KVI's 'The Commentators' 9-12n

[majoradio]

How well are Carlson and Schram doing - per the latest Arbitron? -

- andhow long will this program last - IYHO's?

The show actually is developing some charactor. Don't know numbers, but it's refreshing to hear local radio.

The reason I inquire here is that I've been getting some feedback that this show is becoming
the 'fast-alternative' now from nationally sounding KIRO's Ross and KTTH's Rush...

They say Ross is getting too repetitive, while Rush is becoming too loud...

I've noticed Schram does quite a bit of jabbing on Carlson re some topics John discusses 'republically',
but they both keep it fresh and functioning...

STILL can't help but guess how long the show will last, but if their ratings hold steady, maybe for years...

Believe it or not, these guys do a very solid show every morning! And yes, it is beginning to gain traction and eat into Rush and Ross. it's been steady growth since the 2 have been added to the KVI line-up and certainly a great alternative to the "old-timers" of the middays!

...they're even giving away great Mariners tickets -- to the 'BEST' callers....

If only KVI's signal were better, but overall - seems like Ross is biting his nails on this...

I mean, using that 'same' music bed and opening script - 3 times a weekday since the early 90's -
maybe has listeners getting 'tired' of it....

..then again Dave's still a #1 host, and SHOULD 570 cut into 710's ratings,,,,ohhh, look out!
