Recall after the '11 purge Owens and others said, "Yeah, well, ratings have been declining and this is a fresh, innovative change bringing high ratings." Of course we all knew it was all BS and it hit us that this corrupt company cum-u-less was all about willful destruction of its stations for monetary AND political reasons.

I hate her "Hanging with Langdon, and "Let's have some fun". When I want fun, I go out with friends, when I listen to a radio show, especially these days with all the political stuff going on, I want some serious discussion about "issues of the day" that Gene Burns use to say. I like Brian, but 2 to 3 hours is enough, I think for most host a 4 hours show is hard to pull off, I think Gene Burns could have done it, I think John Rothmann can do it, but 4 hours a day for 5 days, will most likely give you a watered down version. I like John Bachelor for the most part, I don't often agree with him, but he knows his stuff and often talk about issues other hosts don't.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-73936929456830083392017-05-02T21:19:24.122-07:002017-05-02T21:19:24.122-07:00Oh no, not Gil Gross, did you listen to him when h...Oh no, not Gil Gross, did you listen to him when he was on 910? He was a total bore for about 90 percent of this show. Keep Brian Copeland for 2 hours, keep Ronn for 2 hours, and I agree switch Pat and John, except I work late and leave work around 9:30 and since I like John more than Pat, I would love to have John come on at 10, it would make my commute of about 1 and 1/2 hour seem like nothing. Perhaps news in the morning and 1 hour at noon. Lots of possibilities, but have no faith in Cumulus actually trying to please their listeners.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-78073662061802892892017-05-02T21:13:40.159-07:002017-05-02T21:13:40.159-07:00Crude comment it is neither here nor there, if you...Crude comment it is neither here nor there, if you can't be more articulate and express yourself in a more civil manner, just shut up.

But I think you are little too tough on Ronn. Ronn's show remains interesting, with for the most part a good mix of topics. Ronn himself, well, like him or not, he's still the same ol' Ronn. Personally, I like his radio personality. <br /><br />If I were running KGO, here's what I'd do<br /><br />Weekdays<br /><br />* Bearman, Bachelor, Franklin, and the early am duo, out<br />* Ronn weekdays 9am-noon <br />* John Rothman weeknights 10 pm - 1 am<br />* Pat Thurston weeknights 7-10 pm weeknights<br />* Brian Copeland noon-4, & to replace Ronn (eventually)<br />* Will Durst either 6-9 am, or 4-7 pm, or after Rothmann<br /><br />Weekends<br /><br />* Maureen's pretty good, but she needs some mentoring.<br />* Michael Finney's show remains interesting, stays.<br />* Other weekend slots should be used for grooming and auditioning new live and local talent. Comedians tend to make for good radio talk hosts so Brian and Maureen can help with screening.
