Parisi changing stations?

For whatever it's worth, this was heard just a few minutes ago on Emil Franzi's Inside track on KVOI:

Parisi from KSNT 790 to KVOI 1030
Andy Taylor doing the morning show on KNST

anyone else heard this?
 
When asked about his move to KVOI Jim Parisi replied,

"I dunno, it could be good, but it also could be bad, one rarely knows what to think about these things"
 
How 'bout running Beck much earlier and live??

Actually what have the morning radio talk shows been doing ratings wise? I have not tuned into Jon Justice show...like forever....never the less there might be a nice battle of 3 or 4 live talk shows for Tucson's morning audience???
 
This was on his facebook page...


Friends, please take a moment if you can to listen (7-9am) to a bit of Monday's show (knst). I will be saying goodbye to those who allowed me into their..ears? over the years. :) Out of respect for KNST I won't say where I'm going Monday, but here I can tell you the Jim Parisi Show, with Jes and Rey, will air on the ...strongest talk signal in Tucson, KVOI 1030am, 8-10am every weekday! (starting Nov 30th)
 
So does Andy get Jim's show? I hope he lands it, although it is for Clear Channel...it's still a job.

And as far as KVOI, is Ed A. staying, or is he out of a job again? I would hope not.
 
A good catch there, hopefully some of those players who are willing to talk will do so soon. I would not be surprised if Jim left because a PD wanted to make another unfavorable change to the show, like slot it from 4 to 7 so they could make room for another syndicated mess....

Is that Sheriff Andy Taylor from Mayberry or Andy Taylor from Duran Duran? ;D

He sounds very comfortable already, but will El Cheapo Channel make him permanent?? ???

Thanks but the answer is no. A New Morning Show Host will be starting February 1st. His name is Garrett Lewis and he has filled in for
Jim before, and auditioned a couple weeks ago. He comes to Tucson from Waco Texas. Word is I will fill in till then. Obi Wan from the John Jay and Rich Show and KRQ Weekends will serve as Producer for Garrett, so I will be on the Beach yet again, I still handle Weekend News on KNST but am looking for something Full Time. Thanks again for the kind words.

That's a shame, your show had what kills local radio theses days, you were engaging and entertaining.....seriously we hope to see you around these parts here in the Greenest Valley on earth....now does the new morning man actually like the format of KNST as compared to the previous host who thought working their was utter hell??? ???
