Nights at Xtreme in Cleveland perhaps?

I highly doubt it's Cleveland.

Assuming Mo's work agreement was roughly the same as mine, Cumulus- Youngstown puts a 75 mile / 6 month non-compete on their employees. Cleveland would, obviously, be inside that 75 mile radius. Similar situation as when I left there, but in the other direction... I had to fight like crazy to get clearance to do part-time at WKST.

Oklahoma City is where Mo is headed, I'd almost guarantee it.<P ID="signature">______________

Mo has had a great relationship with Cumulus and they know Cleveland would be his dream job. Trust me, they would let him go. No questions asked. My bet would be Cleveland.

Trout isn't the PD at Rock 104 either; Mo probably has Jim Loboy's blessing to join WXTM whereas Trout would probably throw a fit.

I'm sure mgmt would have let him go to a bigger market. Cumulus has done it in other markets, allowing talent to move on. Youngstown and Cleveland don't compete, there's no Cumulus station's in Cleveland, so there wouldn't be a problem. Most Cumulus contracts, in the Midwest region, are worded to allow for Cumulus to match the offer, but that's about it.

On Tuesday Iggy proclaimed himself as the new night guy at 92.3. So, unless Mo is going to do weekends or Iggy's just the new guy until someone else comes along, I doubt Mo is going to 92.3.

Is Iggy a part timer at XTM? Never heard of him.

From what I've heard from Iggy he doesn't sound all that bad. Is WXTM his first radio gig?

Anyone know the where Johnny Angel is? His pic is still up but I haven't heard him on the air in a few weeks?

I think Verlane has improved alot in the short time he's been on the air
