KXNO/iHeart Layoffs

[JP4CY]

If anyone wants more Sean he has a pretty good podcast on Apple and Spotify

He was probably using the studio to record right?

 

[ArgentCy]

Wow, guessing Murphy & Andy call it quits or move to another station with AD. AD is a big part of that show.

Especially since that is kinda a second job for them. Can't imagine they would be able to cover everyone else's job as most of these idiots in charge seem to believe. But hey, we have stock to buyback.

Well I can save you all time with national radio.

-Lebron
-Cowboys
-Will Brady return?
-Who is the best athlete of all time debate?
-Lebron
-More Lebron
-Which mega star will the Yankees buy and underperform with?
-Duke basketball is amazing
-Alabama football
-Yet more Lebron

YOU KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT NATIONAL SPORT RADIO.

Actually they don’t

What could this possibly be about?

 

[Sigmapolis]

National shows are the worst. You get 5 minutes of content at a time followed by 10 minutes of commercials. ESPN radio on Sirius is a ******* joke.

No offense to those who work in the field, but radio is kind of an obsolete technology. Podcasts have functionally replaced it in the media ecosystem.

It seems like it’s a little bit of everything. Good amount of sports talk and they had Todd Blythe on for the bowl game

Not going to too political here but they will experience the same as I have done with national TV. Click... gone.

For those confused by my statement, I apologize. I was let go today too.

Man, this sucks.

 

[ArgentCy]

On the plus side I have one less app on my phone. Gone. don't need that anymore.

 

[AgronAlum]

So are they going to release a new lineup or is the whole station changing format.

 

[JP4CY]

I dont want this to come off poorly but maybe was it a blessing in disguise with how busy you are?
Well anyway hope you get to enjoy some more baby time now.

I say this knowing he's a Hawk and even with the infamous WRNL article about him, but Ross is far and away the best employee they had.

Same, Ross is an all round good dude. LOL I was listening live to when the rant went down and it's still one of my favorite KXNO moments. Any reading the piece of hate mail he received is still number one for me though.

They found a new guy Tarty Myrell who agreed to do all the shows at half the cost!

Not sure how much you are allowed to comment but did they give any reasons behind these moves? Obviously looks like they are going to national shows in your time slots, damn that sucks.

Really enjoyed you and Ross over the years, by far the best local show there has been in the market over the years. Too bad they couldn't let you all do a sendoff show and all the listeners could show up to El Bait Shop or somewhere for 1 last toast!

Speaking of which has anyone spotted Heather at a local watering hole yet? Dang she has had some rough go arounds in this market over the years...

Don't listen to a ton of sports radio, but there goes most of my reasons to.

 

[JP4CY]

Miller is heavily sighing going to break.
Itll be interesting how this show ends.

That's not true at all. Podcasts are absolutely seeing increases in listeners, but it's not like radio is losing people.

However, decisions like this certainly aren't going to help those numbers in any way
