RIP 104.7 The Fish

[RadioDoogie]

I feel like this was something they did when they first signed on in 2000. Can anyone confirm? I think I remember reading about them in the trades doing some hybrid CCM/Secular AC format in the beginning.

There was Mandy Moore’s “Only Hope” from the 2002 movie - A Walk to Remember.

In the past few promoters have been shady.

Regarding record promoters... I think the word "few" is a mistake.

Did they play Katy Perry or Jars of Clay?

Jars of Clay, yes. Pre-Katy Perry, IDK.

As the Dead Kennedys sang...

I was giving promoters the benefit of "innocent until proven guilty".

EMF is like just won't go away

Like cancer, keeps spreading

Back then, at the time, known as Katy Hudson. BTW, ICYW, Keep The Faith will continue as it is independent from Salem so probably Penny will still be around. Industry News Bits THU 1/2/25 - HisAir.Net

I know the FCC could care less about formats (as long as there is no obesity)

Absolutely can't have overweight people in radio.

it appears that secondchoice meant “obscenity”

people who may be overweight on the air are likely too busy to eat healthy and exercise…however, they might have deeper voices (aka bass-baritone) a great radio voice to have!

Correct. Auto correct strikes again

That’s a different Keep The Faith. Keep The Faith w/Penny is syndicated by Salem, like all of the Fish’s programming. In researching, I saw where Penny posted on her her LinkedIn page that the show is ending January 31st and she is looking for work.

The website for the Keep The Faith that’s continuing (and referenced in the picture accompanying the article you linked to) is: KeepTheFaith

How about we keep this thread focused on radio and not immigration policies?

I rarely post and am just a listener (not in the business or an especially close follower), but I'll chime in that I suspect they spun The Fray's "How to Save a Life" in 2006-2007 more than any station in Atlanta... it had to have been in heavy rotation for the better part of twelve months.
