Kenny Wilkerson to WVUE?

Now maybe we know why Kenny Wilkerson resigned from WWL radio . . .
could Tom Benson have him in mind as WVUE FOX8's new sports director?
 
Forget it. Kenny's in the Saints doghouse - and he ain't no Buddy D, so he won't be out anytime soon.

You'll be lucky to find Kenny anywhere in NOLA media unless someone starts another sports radio station and needs a local host.
 
Hope he does well wherever he ends up. It was always fun to listen to the Buddy D stories when he and Hoke would get on a roll. Say what you want but he's good people.

I agree with you, Blair on the Air.
Kenny Wilkerson would be GREAT for FOX 8
 
Good grief. Come on, guys. We all know that Kenny will be selling insurance or cars very soon. He will NOT get another job in New Orleans.

From the mouth of Kaare Johnson on Thursday afternoon, Kenny Wilkerson will guest host along with Eric and Kaare on saturday at Ray Brandt Toyota this saturday.
And nedryson, Kenny WILL BE WORKING IN RADIO REAL SOON..................
 
Let’s see... Eric, Kkkkkaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeee, and Wilkie at a car store. Yup, Axedriver, you are right and I am wrong. Gosh, I surely blew that one. I figured Wilkie would fade into oblivion at Westwood, another Entercom station, perhaps another CC station, or some other place in the non-real radio world. But, WIST 690, well, what can I say. THAT is indeed real radio.

By the way, my prediction was that Wilkie would be selling insurance or cars soon. Let’s see... He’ll be at Ray Brant Toyota. I can hear it now. “Uh, um, where’s, I mean, what’s it, uh, gonna take, er, I mean, you know, for me to, um, get you into this Corolla, some time in the future, er, I mean, today?”
 
Kaare, Eric and Wilkerson on the same show??? I may have to roll tape for the next Stutterer's Anonymous meeting. Talk about a group that needs some diction lessons...
 
No Kenny on with KKKKKKKAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE.
At least as long as I could stand to listen to them drabble on about things no one cares about.
When are radio stations going to stop doing these stupid "remotes?"
How silly they must look, at a little table in the corner, out of the way, all by themselves, with a banner, T-shirts and key chains, talking about the food that no one but them and the car salespeople are going to eat.
And no one cares.
 
Where was Wilkie???

I think this was a plant by someone at WIST (Kaare, Eric, Dan Frazier) to get more people to listen. They had no intention of putting Wilkie on. He might outshine Kaare the Golden Child with his sports acumen, although he could never outshine Kaare when it comes to useless trivia (or the names of the idiots that voted for him).

Just a ruse...

ksw - I would substitute the word "pathetic" for "silly" (How PATHETIC they must look). The only thing, with WIST, there's no t-shirts (gave the 2 they had out during the 1st remote) and no key chains (couldn't fit them in the budget). But the car salespeople were grilling burgers and hot dogs...and don't forget about the Lil Dizzy's chicken.

GREAT observation, and well put - very funny!

As for Wilkie, I hear he couldn’t get over to the radio table because he was back and forth talking to the assistant to the assistant manager trying to close a deal on a ’84 Celica for a guy with bad credit. It got hairy because Wilkie spilled some lukewarm coffee on his SansaBelts, and one of the hot dogs he got from the radio table for the customer slipped out of the bun and rolled under a Tundra.
 
Yo axe...

Mayhaps KW could not make the show because he was working out a deal on a '84 Tercel. Can anyone spell "g-a-s-m-i-l-a-g-e."
Just a thought.
Hey axedriver.
That crazy crashing sound was your credibility being destroyed by your last post.
Tiny tip. Don't listen to the "mouth of Kaare Johnson" for your info. Depend on idiots, be an idiot.

You may want to lurk in the shadows for a while until the rest of us get bored and leave or just forget your foolish decloration of "From the mouth of Kaare Johnson on Thursday afternoon, Kenny Wilkerson will guest host along with Eric and Kaare on saturday at Ray Brandt Toyota this saturday.And nedryson, Kenny WILL BE WORKING IN RADIO REAL SOON.................."

Depending on anything KKKKKAAAAAARRRRREEEE says is like pretending he will have a media job after WIST gets sold.
Silly indeed!

This describes what has become of this board. How sad that something meant to discuss the radio business has become a personal vendetta board.
 
Larry - The board is about "opinions" not "vendettas". I have no personal axe to grind with Kaare Johnson. He is wasting what little God given talent he has. He is a lazy talk host, who would be and should be unemployed if he had a different last name.

By the way, to quote one of your posts regarding Amy Lawrence, "She has a job because she is a woman period. They don't care if she has talent, she just needs to look good on EOE report". This isn't personal? WIST bought into the name and hype of Kaare Johnson. Now they, and we, have to live with the lack of substance. How are my posts about Kaare any different than your posts?

Buff there is one very big difference. Amy Lawrence was the TOPIC of that post. Go look at your own post. Everytime something is posted on this board regarding something, you choose to bring in Johnson, Asher, 690, weekends, etc....clearly your hatred of 690, for whatever reason, be it they fired you, they would not give you a job or whatever, clearly influences your "opinion" to the point that it seems you cannot discuss anything other than your dislike of anything that is not YOU on 690
 
Larry - I didn't introduce 690 to this topic, someone else did. Did I respond to it after it was introduced.

For the record, I enjoy listening to Eric Asher (except on Fridays which is a waste of time), I've never been employed by 690, never applied for a job there, and they couldn't afford me if I did.

I've also made negative statements about other talk radio programs in this town, not just on 690. I've also made positive statements on this board about talk radio programs. That's my right as an American, isn't it?
 
Kenny W did a very good job on WWL. What is the REAL reason he left? PIGVOMIT would like a straight answer. Thanks in advance. pv
 
neydryerson-you obviously are not a fan of Kenny. You say tomato, I say tomato. We don't all agree on air talent. I love walton & Johnson. You think Tommy Tucker rocks. that's our perogative. But, ksw2844, you sound like someone who just doesn't get the desired remote hours. Just go to the program dir and ask. Nicely.
