[Psycho Dave]

Would someone please list all the things that are so great about Ryan Seacrest?? No Rush...

 

[ISaidSo]

Good lord what a joke! How can a station that has turned over it's entire line-up in the last 6 months be on that list? Now bone heads like Pete Dits and Tom Lee can stick out their chests and act like what the do is good radio, that station is cluless.... I thought that award meant something..... Key word Thought as in no longer.

 

[MikeShannon914]

I thought Dits left the building last year, right before the Citadel deal was complete.

>Kelly, Mudflap & JoJo, KYGO-FM Denver, CO

WOW, lucky Denver!!! Wish we could have some "Mudflap" radio here in Dallas. ??? WTF ??? Maybe THAT'S the niche I've overlooked for years...how about this: "Coming soon to K[XXX]--The KayCee, Cab-Over Reefer and Myrna Sue Morning Show!"

 

[5410]

I would like to know the Seacrest appeal as well.

That guy sure does work hard but boy is he annoying. I have a feeling we will be in the presence of his gayness for many years to come. I don't know what it is but he is that guy you just want to punch in the face, yet you have absolutely no reason to do so.

 

[NealH]

Because 103.3 has the best actual sports station in this market. They talk sports.

And their 10 listeners are grateful for it

Back before American Idol, I heard an aircheck of Seacrest doing afternoons on KIIS in LA. I have to admit he was a damned good jock... especially for CHR. He's made for it.

It doesn't surprise me one bit that he's the guy who replaced Rick Dees.

He was afternoons on Star 98.7, not KIIS, when it was a Modern AC format. And it was a pretty good show... He only started on KIIS after Dees departure.

I want to punch him too.

He's sorta annoying, but I have to admit, th guy's voice is fit for radio.
