I'm sad to share that my time with WIP is over. My contract will not be renewed, and I'm exploring my options. I love you Philly. More soon."

Look at me, I'm @JoshInnesRadio, I try to be a cool shock jock ****** because I look like Artie Lange."


"Anthony Gargano @CuzReports · Dec 19

The "other station" just called..."


Thoughts?

Damnit! A great philly host, he was. I met him years ago. Great guy.

WIP is just not the same as it was back in the 2000's when it was on 610

Apparently, he didn't like the deal the station offered and decided to walk.

Neal Zoren on TV/Radio: Gargano's voice will be missed at WIP

A re-teaming of Glen Macnow with Rob Ellis and a solo flight by Josh Innes were among the permutations WIP (94.1 FM) listeners heard at midday (2 to 6 p.m.) following the hasty departure of Anthony Gargano, who reportedly rejected a contract offering him a year’s extension.

Anthony Gargano’s abrupt departure leaves questions about the future of WIP and his career.

Should a station be the same as it was 15 or more years ago? I'd submit it shouldn't. Times change, listeners' tastes change.
