If you were Dallas radio czar...

Since I am relatively new to the group...not to Dallas...and everyone seems to have an opinion. Here's something to chew on:

If you could program your own station, what format, what jock and what shift and for how long on that shift? Formats could change during the daypart if you wish. No retired or ex-jox...just available talent.
 
Well, since Susquehanna is for sell and will most likely be broken up to the highest bidder...

I will buy The Bone, just so that I can fire Scott Strong!

Then I will bring the Zone back to life!

Except this time...I will actually promote the station and not steal every idea from KFOG or WXRT.

Here is my line-up:

Mornings - Rody
Mid-Days - Jeff K (According to the book of Revelations, when Jeff leaves 93.3 that begins the end times.)
PM - Red Beard

Format? Don't know.

No longer than three hours.

WHAT THE F#%K kind of limitation is THAT? Some people are "retired" or "ex" because they were forced out and would gladly return.
 
I would bring back the old KVIL I still think the old format would work. Bring back the personality style format with a lot of fun contests. As far as music just like the old days no hard rock or rap just a good mix of adult top 40 with a few oldies which today I guess would be a mix of 70s and 80s. As far as personalities. Mornings:Jody Dean Mid Days: Ken Barnett Afternoons: Larry Dixon

An all-80s pop format:

6AM-9AM-Banana Joe Montione and Y-Vonne St John, with an upbeat, 'get yer a$$ outta bed' attitude. Lots of energy and contests. Andy McCollum on news and Laura Houston on traffic.

9AM-12 noon-Steve Eberhart, with a female-friendly, semi-upbeat 80s mix for listening at work.

12 noon-1PM-Christopher Haze (Randy Brown) spins the all-request lunch show, and have a rotation of former, familiar local DJs sit in as a 'jock-of-the-week' on Fridays...Jack Schell, Dave Tucker, Chapman??? etc.

1PM-4PM-Pete Thomson, with the same approach from the 9-noon shift.

4PM-7PM- Jonathan Doll, Peggy Sears and Doc Morgan, with Jonathan Hayes on traffic and Michael T. Parker (Moser) on news. Heavy on interaction between jocks. Contests, energetic music, light and sporadically-placed commercial load.

7PM-midnight-Kidd Kraddick or Michael Blake, with a KISS-FM-type treatment of the 80s, to draw in younger listeners

Overnights-Russ Martin, but as a jock. Ya know, some of his better work was hosting the Eagle's lunch-hour show in the late 90s.

Saturday nights-Jim Thomas
Sunday mornings-Bud Buschardt

Programmer/consultant: George Johns, who came up with the format that made KVIL #1 a LONG time ago.

Or make things very simple...bring back Mike Selden from the dead, have him on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and give him all the drugs, booze and women in the studio that he might want.

Please....please.....please make that happen. Maybe a little Paxton Mills in the mix too.
 
Hey Steve,
I lost your e-mail address.

Remember we spoke about things in Nebraska?
