Moby To The Wolf?

DToTheJ

Georgia-based country radio host Moby In The Morning recently started syndication via Cumulus Media. There's speculation his show might be carried by stations in smaller markets... and Cumulus' 94.3/97.3 "The Wolf" immediately come to mind (or at least mine)...
 
Maybe they should move Jack Hammer to afternoon drive and move Beth Christy over to Fox Oldies, that would be better. Remember Beth Christy used to play oldies on WCZX's "Oldies 97.7" back in the 90's before he went to "The Wolf".

And in addition to that, maybe they should add a traffic report called "Right Now Traffic" on all Cumulus HV stations to compete with CC's Total Traffic. This hasn't been done since March when Cumulus was announced in cooperation with Radiate Media to do "Right Now Traffic" on all 75 Cumulus outlets, and then nothing happened a month later. Just one thing, move Jack Hammer to afternoon drive to replace Beth Christy, and add "Right Now Traffic" reports on all Cumulus stations.
 
Now why would Cumulus move Beth Christy to Fox Oldies? If they moved her to an oldies station, wouldnt they move her to TRUE Oldies, which they own?!? ::)
 
Why would Beth Christy leave Cumulus for Fox Oldies? If I am not mistaken she is the Wolf Program Director and has been with Cumulus for more than a decade. If Cumulus did roll out Moby in the morning on Wolf my recommendation would be to keep Jack Hammer in the building. Here's a thought: They should use him on the WPDH morning show. Remember how good he was with Andre? It is sad to see how management has let the WPDH morning show go.

Also Fox Oldies now has Suzy Garcia who did her first Oldies show yesterday. It was another step up for them. They are on the radar now more than ever. The station is really coming together and forging a name.
 
If Jack goes over to WPDH, they should say sayonara to Coop. Mike Cooper has been on WPDH for so long, but this need a replacement and put Andre back on the map and call it the return of "Jack & Andre in the morning on the Home of Rock & Roll, 101.5 WPDH, Puh-keepsie!"

In addition to all of that, Cumulus needs a traffic report on morning and afternoon drive called "Right Now Traffic". That has never done this since last month when it was announced back in early march where Cumulus and Radiate Media joined forces to start its own traffic reports. CC does well with "Total Traffic", and I hope Cumulus will compete with its traffic report of its own. Come on, Cumulus, add a "Right Now Traffic" report and maybe they should put Jack Hammer to WPDH and maybe they should let Coop go. Coop is not the best morning show to begin with. So do it, NOW!!!!!
 
Next question: who do you think would get better ratings in morning drive - Moby or Tommy Lee Walker?
 
Given the heritage of WRWD, along with the popularity of Tommy Lee, plus the fact that he's local and live - the winner would be hands down TLW.

You also have to take into consideration the Wolf's signal and how it stacks up to WRWD, but that's another discussion.
