Where will Atom and Maria land?

[intx]

I can't see another Houston station that would pick them up. Can any of you? Guess they're on to other locales. Wonder if they'll go as a package deal or split?

They weren't partnered for very long. Quite frankly, Maria wasn't much to listen to without Sam Malone.

Do you think Sam wants her back? I've only heard his KTRH show and I think he would prefer to fly solo there but what about his other gig? I haven't heard that show at all so I don't know if he has any on air personalities helping him so maybe he could use her to fill in the blanks. Sam does what like 6 hours of radio per day with little or no music, maybe some help would be welcome.

nope...
pretty solid with Michele Fisher as co-host (as I predicted when she left 104)
and Natalie "news reader/cop spouse" O'Neil.

only thing I can see happenign at Mix is a music flip to KISS!

I think Atom will find a good job somewhere else. Hopefully somewhere that he's not told to whitewash his personality so that the listeners don't blush or something else that would be just horrific. But I can't see them staying together as a morning show. They're better off splitting up. And I wonder what will come of their stunt boy, Johnny Bravo, and producer JR?

 

[whatchadoin]

Bravo will do well.

Maybe Maria could do entertainment news for one of the TV stations? She was doing reports for Fox 26 for a while ...

Leave The Mix alone! Please no KISS-FM, I can't handle the hip-hop and urban sound that many KISS formats tend to focus on.

Mix won't switch to KISS-FM....KRBE is switching to Hot A/C....What will The Point become??

 

[a_and_m_king]

A major market with no CHR station? Crazy. Someone needs to flip to CHR if KRBE isn't going to stick with it. :

ehh. I wouldnt say that KRBE is switching to Hot AC. Just more of an "Adult Top40".

Semantics. They can call it whatever they want, but if it sounds like Hot AC....

They're playing alot of songs that would never get play on a Hot AC station.

I don't think a station that rides the line between Hot AC and CHR will work.

I asked onnce and now once more. How about Atom moving to KIOL 7-12 where it sounds like a juke box. A live deejay would be refreshing.

 

[D-I-B]

And work a lesser shift on a lesser station for the company that just took him out of the top gig in town?

No way. Not when he could easily move to Z100 or any other major market station with decent ratings.

A live DJ would be refreshing? Dude... they're already live.

Here lately I haven't noticed anyone in the 7-12 pm shift.

But I wasn't aware he had already worked for Cumulus. At least from the poster above that said that there is no way that he would work for the company that took him away from the top gig in town.

KRBE, KIOL, and KFNC are all Cumulus.
