Howard Eskin has just ended his daily afternoon show on WIP after 25 years, thoughts?

That it's anticlimactic after weeks of a farewell tour. People move on...such is life.
 
Wel airchecks dont lie and I h happen to have taped it...
Sure sounds like this is a three day earlier launch date.
Morning I guess are what. 6A-10A?
 
I still feel bad for Eskin...he didn't get a fair shot to win on FM. I really felt bad for him hearing him get choked up on-air. i know he can be mean to listeners. Supposivly behind the scenes he isa very nice guy not to mention all he does for charity.
On another note I feel Gargano ad Macnow's show is going to be too long now. I was listening to Ike Reese this morning...wow he's bad. Maybe they could have dropped Reese, paired Eskin and Barkan on 10-2 and put Gargano and Macnow on drivetime? Or kept Eskin and put him between mid day and drive time.....I think WIP ratings are going to suffer midday....BTW does Ike Reese come cheap?...Nighttime by himself...fail...drive time with Eskin...fail....I think he's gonna fail mid day too.

I had to deal with him during the last "WIP on FM" experiment with WSKR back in 1991-92, and let me say that "supposivly" and "factually" are not the same here.
 
The only show on 94 WIP I have been listening to is Duh Cuz and Macnow but only in small doses as Duh Cuz tends to drift pretty easily into total nonsense. I just cant deal with Buddy Boo,Cousin Joey, Hipster Dave,Silent Bro talk. Im out when he starts to fade from sports.

I dont want to hear about the personal lives of these hosts.

Dont/wont listen to the morning show.

Barkan was a nice addition but a strange partner imo. I just never warmed up to Ike as a sports host. Like him as a person though.

And I'll tune in late night with Jolly or Ruben Frank although I dont like G Cobbs limited range.
