"Giant" Brian Carothers is new Project 96.1 morning host

[Twitch]

I'm guessing he took the audio down because of copyright issues and such.

Copyright issues? It's his podcast! It's his bits. He wasn't using bits from Debellas show.

And...

the guy that said Brian had his own show in DC - Where? When? I can't find mention of that ANYWHERE. Hey, maybe the guy will be great, I don't know, but you're telling me this is the best guy for the job in, ahem...."MARKET 9?"

 

[RTibbs]

Bert Weiss had his own show in DC.

He probably took his podcast bits down because he wants to use them here. No sense in letting people hear them from his past gig before he recycles them on the new show.

My bad, dude! Dang! ;D

Wasn't Bert Weiss Kidd Kraddicks right hand guy before Atlanta. I thought this was his first major market hosting gig? Am I way off?

He had his own morning show in D.C. before landing in Atlanta. He may have been with KK before that.

I don't think you're right, RTibbs. Bert was Jack Diamond's sidekick on Mix 107.3 in Washington.

Out of all the audition shows back in May, I do recall liking The Giant Show the best.

The Cockroach is still running his old shows on late Thursday nights/early Friday morning. And in fact, in honor of his new gig, they'll likely run a marathon that weekend prior on August 4.

Perrynoid said he has a message for 99x - "Pack your bags"

This guy has no freakin' clue about Atlanta radio.

 

[TheDingo]

How can any of you say this is a bad hire when you havent heard the guy yet?

Uh...because that's the only thing this type of forum is good for. Bashing every decision that anyone makes in an effort to make themselves feel better.

agreed 100%

congrats Perry!

Is he envious of 99X's 1.8 share in 25-54?

No he didn't. He was Jack Diamond's producer/sidekick. This is Bert's first show of his own.

 

[DashRiprock]

I miss TRG.

I miss TRG.

Ah, come on, man...the Regular Guys weren't EXTREME!!! like the new show. Yeah...the first thing we do when we get to town is call out 99X, make fun of Steve & Vikki, um...yell a lot, talk about boobs, trash 99X some more, reference a bunch of inside-radio crap listeners don't care about...and DID WE MENTION HOW EXTREME!!! WE ARE?

Is the Atlanta radio market only good enough for second bananas to host morning shows?
