First Trust Dale TV, Now Trust Dale Radio

A

AMFMRadFan

Hi everyone. It's been talked about on the Atlanta TV board about Trust Dale TV. Now, starting this coming Saturday, Trust Dale Radio is going to launch. It will be every Saturday afternoon at 3PM on 640 AM WGST right after the Dave Merlino Show. Talk about WOW. No, that is not an exciting WOW! Do any of you think that Dale Cardwell is taking this too far? I personally am not sure. He may be taking it too far. He does deserve a chance. I may be listening this weekend. For anyone who wants to comment about this, you are welcome to comment about this below. Thank you.
 
I just tuned in to 640 WGST 25 minutes ago only to find out that the Dave Merlino Show is still going on. I may have misheard the promo for Trust Dale Radio. If they said that it was going to come on Sunday afternoon at 3PM to replace Martha Zoller, I won't be able to tune in tomorrow afternoon.
 
Maybe he just wants to keep his name and face out there for the next election cycle.
He may be advertising TRUST DALE, but it's also an advertisement for VOTE DALE.
 
I just heard another promo. It's official. Trust Dale Radio is going to actually start this coming weekend on Sunday afternoon 4/10 at 3PM on 640 AM WGST. No, I won't be tuning in.
 
Hasn't Clark Howard gotten rich and famous with almost the exact same schtick? Why wouldn't Trust Dale do just as well?

Just visited this guy's website and played his video blurb. (He even sounds like Clark.)

It SEEMS that his show may be geared to buying stuff from his website, which would place his show in an infomercial category (quasi-infomercial if he has real callers).

Or maybe the check bounced... ::)
 
The big difference is that Dale takes money from sponsors, and I don't think Clark does at all. And, Dale endorses companies, and Clark doesn't. So it would seem to me that Dale's legitimacy is sort of suspect when it comes to bias. Perhaps?

Clark adamantly refuses to do any kind of plugs, spots, or endorsements. Dave Ramsey does, though.
