John and Ken.

From SDRADIO.NET:




John and Ken heard on KFI-AM from 2-7 p.m., had a Bay Area outlet as well. Yesterday, Clear Channel replaced them with John Gibson.

The LA based show has a sizable audience in Southern California, with at least several million listeners.

John disappeared midweek a week and a half ago. Then it was "They are on vacation". Thought it sounded odd. Hope they are both back soon. It makes the afternoon commute easier with something to listen to.

The John and Ken Show is a local show, unique to Los Angeles and it just won't play in Peoria, or San Francisco for that matter. Any attempt to make it work out of Southern California might lose them the LA audience.

Lots of hosts schedule vacations around holidays so I imagine that John is not MIA.

More like 900,000. About 700 k in the LA market, about 130,000 in the IE, 70,000 in SD and a few more in Ventura County. Definitely not a million, very definitely not 2 million.

If we eliminate exposure to those under 18, the number goes down by about 100 k.

LA and SF are two very different markets, and J&K even know this from personal history, when their first afternoon drive show on KFI was syndicated.

For that matter, KGO's Ronn Owens knows this as well

The now-ended deal with KNEW was just to give that mostly syndicated station some quasi-regional programming, aside from A&G in the mornings. It was not going to work long-term.
