Bad Radio at "The X"

R

radioaircheck

I can't believe the horrible content on "The AM X". All they know how to talk about is sex and doing drugs. Great programming!! They also use bad language as well. I don't know how the FCC lets stuff like this go. If they visited Butler Broadcasting, they would have a field day. It sounds like a highschool locker room.
 
The AM X is obvoulsly one of those shows that one is really gonna love or hate. If you really wanna hear BAD RADIO, check out WTKS out of Orlando. They have a show on that station called "The Monsters in The Morning". This show consits of about 8 people who all talk over each other. They have a guy on the show who goes by the name "Drunky The Bear" who sounds like some dude that just walked into the studio with no experience whatsoever. This guy also shows up at events with a bear suit on...

You think we got bad radio in Northwest Arkansas, wait till ya hear THESE GUYS!!!!!
 
The X has the best morning show in the market if you ask me. The only thing that would make it better is all around sexy chick with a sexy voice.
 
Whatever happenned to the original host of The AM X....

I think that his name was Frank and his show was a lot like "AM Coast To Coast"....(you know, government cover-ups, Aliens, etc...)

Where is THAT guy......
 
They let him go. He was not costing them that much and had a better audience than the current morning show. They could have sold Frank better becasue he ad a wid audience. It was a poor decision to let him go. I don't know what he is doing now, but he had a great show and a great following. I guess the Retards they have on now come cheap.
 
Radioaircheck your wrong as usual. Frank did not have better numbers than the current AMX, and I have all the books back to 2000 to prove it. You are right however that Frank was a great talent. The problem was Franks numbers went into the toilet when 92.1 changed to the Zone for 9 months, the audience had a option. Franks show also suffered from becoming the same show day after day, you could miss a week and not miss anything. He was asked to take guidance and refused so that left The X with no alternative but to look for a replacement. Jon Williams was offered the position but used it as a bargaining chip to get a raise at Clear Channel. The X looked at syndication and was close to signing up Stern and then O & A but then decided to "grow their own" show, it took a couple of years to teach Branden and acquire other role players (Bobbitt,Bailey) but the results have paid off.
 
I just don't understand why every word has tobe a cuss word or they have to talk about sex every stop set. It is just like Frank do the samething day in day out. It will eventually get old.

Click to expand...

Yeah. It's a pity there's not one available in the market.
 
92.1 The Zone.....

Talk about a station that didn't last....

I remember that the PD at the zone was not very happy with the decision to go back to the old KKEG format at the time...

Anyways, on the topic of raunchy morning radio, somebody should put on "Bubba The Love Sponge" here..
