Russ to PM Drive accoring to....

Makes better sense. RMS is not a fit for the mornings.

Did Russ happen to say anything about cold-cocking The Playmaker at Cool River?



;)
 
This will actually be really interesting for DFW - PM Drive PPM info.

Maybe they are hooking Cindy up with that guy she did mornings on The Bone with to play 7-8 songs an hour?
Chris VT's middays?

The Allaccess release said more info this afternoon -we'll see. Maybe Michael IrvinG in Am Drive ;D

So is this a Hail Mary for the Rock and Russ format on KEGL ?

Is this a case where the revenue from the show outshines the below average ratings and cost?

Will be interesting to see. I think afternoon TSL will be incredibly higher with this show.
 
I have never in my life listened to this person on the radio or at a live event.

I clicked on jeff's 'russmartin.kegl' link.

I listened to 9/9/11 segment 1, and segment 2.

It reminded me of the one time when I was in junior high smoking a marijuana cigarette, which made everything seem funny.

One guy says:"There is cheese in the hallway" and gets a big laugh. These guys sound like 12 year old girls giggling over a story in Tiger Beat Magazine, circa 1974.

Who listens to this? It is as insipid as anything I have ever heard come out of my radio speakers.
 
You are correct sir, it is terrible, but some how, he has legions of fans that hang on his every word. Should be intersting what he does to 105.3 afternoon drive show. They seem to attract the same people.
 
Cindy in the morning ROCKS!!

Word is Russ gets 2 months to prove to corporate he's still worth banking on. They probably already know the answer to that...
 
Contracts mean next to nothing in radio. The bottom line is the morning ratings simply weren't there for Russ. He got into a pissing match with management while having zero leverage. Who knows if the 2 month thing is legit. It wouldn't surprise me if it it's true. CC still holds all the cards here. If Russ continues to suck, they can say, "we tried everything, even putting Russ in afternoons." As bad and stale as the music is on KEGL, it's better than listening to Russ. I bet TSL goes through the roof in AM Drive and plummets in PM Drive.
 
Interesting... The Hardline is coming on at 2:50 rather than 3:30ish... Did I miss why today doesn't suck? Are they threatened by Russ starting in about 5 minutes??? ???
 
No, KTCK was not afraid of Russ. The Cowboys pre-game show is at 5:30, so the Hardline got an extra 10 minutes today.
 
Anybody notice the difference on his show? When he did mornings he never played music, now he's playing 1 or 3 songs an hour.
