Part of an email I received from Tom Liddy in response to my question of where have they been?
"Thanks for asking. Austin and I have brought KFYI from Number 23 to Number 1 in afternoon drive. We have been asked to syndicate the Liddy and Hill Show nationally. We will roll out the national show later this fall. If you would like to have Liddy and Hill on KFYI, you should cvall the station and tell them or email
[email protected] and tell them you want to keep Liddy and Hill on KFYI."
Hmmmm indeed....
