Lots of Bull in Dothan

I'm confused which isn't that unusual. 105.3 DBT (Radio People) is running a promo that Ms. Elizabeth did asking everyone to join she and Big Mike and Amiee and KC there for their new temporary home, "The Bull". Then there is 100.5 LDA (Magic) which switched over the weekend (bovine stunting sounds, not stunted bovine sounds) from oldies to country and is self promoting as "The Bull". Seems like I remember one of them talking about the "Big Bull". So 955 TVY folks left to go to the Radio People (who own the "Big Dog Country 96.9) and start the Bull on 93.7 which is being purchased from Mizzell but until some future date when it is ready they are going to be on 105.3 DBT. 955 TVY (country) lost all but one staffer, put Rick and Bubba on in the morning and are filling in with other staffers AND switched 100.5 from oldies to country to match the cross town competitor country station for country station. I feel like I'm standing in the cow pen knee deep in bull cr** looking under them all to find the Bull, the Big Bull and the Temporary Bull (is that maybe a cross dressing cow?).

Dothan definitely has its share of Bully Pulpits, or Pits of Bully Pul. Am I even close to getting this straight?
 
Sad thing is if you are confused (and I assume you live in Dothan) and you know the radio biz, can you imagine what this does to the listener...TheRadioPeeps will win this one. They have top of mind with DJR, Tragic blew it with TVY, any listener who hears Rick & Bubba will think they scanned on the wrong station. What advertiser would want to buy that? (Unless it is super cheap) the brand is gone. No matter what these corporate types think, the product is what comes out of the speakers. Especially with country, people want local, local, local...time to play the Tragic theme song

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one to love you you're
goin' nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're
goin' nowhere​
 
Hooray! I like Country!

Lots and Lots of it!

Lots.......and lots..........and looots........

annnnndddd lloootttsss......anbds looobtsnsb...annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

The Gibbs brothers?

You'd better copyright your name attackpoodle before a station in Dothan starts using it. There's Woof, The Big Dog, The Bull. The Big Bull; someone may again try and attack woof and use your screen name.
 
Can't stand it, gotta share promos that popped in my head, freebies for the bull that rides 'em first:

"We leave the electric prods and A.I. (sfx of a distressed bull) to the pretenders we're the natural Bull W---."

or

"The only thing sweeter than country music is a cow doing her business on a flat rock, we're the natural Bull W---."

or

"We've been greening the world before it was cool, we're the natural Bull W----."
 
Stewe, you had better copyright your liners.....stop giving them good ideas!
 
Actually I think the whole thing is typical "Tragic" They hear what The "Old TVY Crew" is going to do and they run copy. I know this is business but how sad when you can not come up with an idea of your own. If I was Amie, KC, Big Mike and Elizabeth I would let all the listeners know exactly what MB did to all of them that made them leave. Pretty bad when your number 1 rated country radio show co-host has major surgery and is out of week for 12 weeks and your company won't help in any way. That's just the tip of the iceburg. Bottom line is MB has to be petty and play games as usual. If they had any commom sense at all they would spend this time trying to turn KMX around.
 
I bet WOOF is loving this...with all these new country stations, they should end up being the new "Big Dog".

There is going to be country on five stations?
Pensacola has had 5 country stations for several years. WKSJ 94.9, WYCT 98.7, WXBM 102.7 and WYOK 104.1... are all class C stations with their towers in the same general area covering Pensacola and Mobile. We also get WAAZ 104.7, another class C that covers Pensacola and Fort Walton. There's a possibility we'll get a sixth country station because Cumulus is trying to buy WTKE 98.1 to upgrade WYZB to 100kw which will cover Fort Walton and Pensacola. On top of that, many small towns in the area (like Brewton) have class A country stations to add to that number.
I'm sure some markets in Dixie must have even more country stations than us.
 
Lets see here....to many country stations in Dothan. then theres Mason and Misty...Pollard...Big Mike...yep thats alot of BULL. Oh yeah dont forget Skip, now thats a big pile of BULL. I do wish that he would STOP trying to pick up my sister. The only reason that hes on the air in Dothan is hes not good enough anywhere else in the country.

So you ask the ???? "Lots of Bull in Dothan?" looks, sounds and smells like it to me.
 
It's about time that somebody put Skip in his place.....I have seen him trying to pick up your sister! It's disgusting! I thought he had more sense than that....and a better eye....I mean, I'm not trying to say that your sister is not that good looking, but Skip[ could definitely do better......

Wait.....what?
 
This thread is beginning to remind me of our local movie, Skip Tracers. Wanna see the trailer, www.skiptracersmovie.com

A comedy that is way too close to the truth for we in mkt 192, 187, 193 or whatever.

BTW gfrnrandr, care to post a pic of your sister? Clue the rest of us in on whatever you folks are talking about?
 
Stewy, you hit the nail on the head! I encourage EVERYONE who reads this post to go see "Skiptracers" at the Northside cinemas the next day or so....I think it is there until Friday. Granted it is "R" rated, but it was produced and directed by good folks here in the Wiregrass, and it stars tons of people from this area! I even have a part in it!
It has a lot of great one liners that folks in our area would get, and there are lots of area landmarks to be seen......

SKIPtracers!

Yeah, and Skip, stop asking his sister out!
