Big Ron Obrian Replacement

kevinob said:
I've been qaway all weekend. Any announcement? I think they'd be crazy to not hirte Big Jay. Hes still got quite a followig on the East coast, he's talented as hell. and if they need someone to do talk at the last minute across the hall, he has a ton of experience in that. He seems to me to be the perfect situation. Personally, I'd listen to him. I caught his show at the shore w/ aita when on vacation, and it was terrific. I hope they do the right thing.

He's already done two shifts on CBSFM here in NYC and he STILL has got it together - WHOEVER hires him on a permanent basis - well...it would just be a GOOD thing... 8)

Re: Big Ron O'brien Replacement

Cadillac Jack was great on the big frog here in Scranton.....you can never truly replace Big Ron but Cadillac would likely do a great job on WOGL in the aft.

Sorry Kev.... Cad's good.... sentimental fave around here is Mr. Sorensen. That being said. either way, it would be a win win for the station and the listeners.
 
C'mon guys, your all nuts....let's face it....Former WNJC brokered power jock Mike Phillips would be the perfect replacement. Why.... Corporate spending would be nill. They would offer him a salary where they would deduct his daily pay everytime he does a shift. And he's not on Television....where it won't cost him to shell out bucks for an expensive wardrobe.....so he can appear everyday in the studio in a red Phillies jersey. I predict that move will happen. Any minute.
 
How about that Boss Jock 1947? Big mouth know-it-all.
Congrats to Cadillac Jack! He earned it....he's a great jock!!

Only sadness in this is yet another shift that could be used to grow and flourish the next (insert high profile jock name here) is gone from the landscape.
 
Nothing against Cadillac Jack, who is a great voice, But personally I think Ang Mason would have been a better pick. Besides the obvious female listener connecton, her smooth delivery and perky personality would have been a great afternoon drive fit. A little sunshine instead of super testosterone! Very talented voice artist, she will be a big player some day, just sorry to see her get short shrifted here. Shes on my short list for some of my clients looking for air talent, so don't yell at me when I hire her away. As most of us PD's know, female air talent is the hardest thing to replace! So Ang is a player, she needs respect!
 
Congrads 2 Cadilliac Jack! If 98 was goin to promote within it only makes logical sense that it b Jack! Angela Mason has no talent idk what this last poster was smoking but he's dead wrong! It is hard 2 replace female talent look at Christy Springfield a true profession that 98 lose do 2 jerkin her around & they replace her with Angela Mason. Come on u went from a top notch personality to a moron who has no clue what there doing! Angela seems like a nice person but a horrible air talent. She has no clue what she is playing all she is is a glorified liner card reader she belongs at a station like B-101. All those jocks do is read liner cards & have no personality so 2 the last poster hire her away snatch her from Wogl who the hell cares! Most people wouldnt miss her she's not a radio legend like Big Ron!
