99X is saved!!

From FMQB: WNNX/Atlanta's Axel, who has been with 99X since it’s inception 14 years ago, is back home in afternoon drive after helping Leslie Fram with the morning show the past few months. Fram commented, "I wanted to take this moment, while I sit across from one of the most talented people I have ever worked with, to let you know that Axel is going back home to afternoons! That same person that everyone loves working with, great storyteller and honestly the best interviewer on the staff, returns home to afternoon drive on Monday! Our own Cumulus VP/Programming, Val Garris, has commented in front of the staff that Axel is 'one of the best afternoon drive jox in the country.' Axel is genuinely excited about the show he loves the most. Thank you Axel and I will miss sharing the mic with you in the mornings!"

I think this is exactly what will return them to market dominance.
 
Oh thrilling. Ever look at dimishing shares in this format. Stick a fork
into me I'm donnnnnneeeeeee
 
But...they have "one of the best jox in the country" "Look, even my new boss says so. I'm right. Right?'

Leslie is correct, I remember in 2000 when Axel interviewed a drugged up Ozzy (pre-TV show) and Ozzy let loose about 35 F-bombs live on the air with no delay. Axel's excuse at the time. "Hey, it's Ozzy." Leslie how did that work out? Did you say Andy was the best interviewer in radio? Or did you suspend him for a few days? Me thinks it's the latter.

Any news on what will happen to the recently promoted Matt Jones? Maybe he can host that Acoustic Sunrise on Dave.
 
I have never heard the Ozzy interview or have even heard of Axel...So please...can someone explain how Ozzy saying the f word is considered a "great" interview??? Is it because Ozzy said the f word? Even before the TV show i am very sure, Ozzy said the f word. He probably even says the s word, t word and both versions of the c word.

Is the interview great because Axel said "Hey, that's Ozzy"?? Is that what makes a GREAT interview?

Should Chris Wallace at Fox News said the same after the Clinton interview last Sunday? Would that have made it a great interview if he said..."hey, thats Bill Clinton"

Think irony.

And now he's been given the keys to the overnight shift

Looking at the 99x.com staff page, not even that. Matt Jones is only listed as doing Sunday School.

Well, I guess that was not updated correctly. As he is up tonight and is listed for overnights on the 99x myspace page.
