WOW-

The last ones left in this "Lusitania" of a business, turn off the remaining lights...

and don't forget WBOS radio 92.9 in boston, that is what cbs is copying it from

Is it 100% certain that Nard, Verlane and Rachael are gone?   I'm still hearing Verlane doing alot of the commercials.  Maybe when the  djs' return Nard, Verlane and Rachael will be back.  

Anyone have any ideas as to what to name the station.  I hope they don't plan on calling it radio92.3. 

When jocks are canned the spots they cut are not. They were paid at the time to cut those spots. Now, if an endorsement that's another issue.


I would have flipped the station the Wed before Thanksgiving. You would have had 4 days of people checking out the station (cume spike), talking and blogging about it. Still... the station will benefit for 3rd phase of ARB.

On the Ohio Media Watch article Nard talks about the dj's being sidelined.  He makes no mention of them being let go.  Maybe they're gonna do what they did when they dropped the Xtreme format and became K-Rock.  Go jockless for a month or so and then return with the dj's.

Maybe they can bring back Lynn Tolliver who is looking for work and he can once again program the music and turn 92.3 FM back to "Solid Gold Soul" like the old WJMO was back then. Or perhaps do that format on 1490 AM, and have a live DJ staff especially if Lynn could go back on the air doing mornings...

I wish Nard the best. I've known him for years and he's a good guy. I hope he lands on his feet soon.

As for Rachael, seriously, so what? The only talent she displayed was for dressing in a short skirt and a low-cut blouse and posing for pictures in Scene Magazine. What does that have to do with radio? Nothing.

god help corporate radio jocks.

WBOS totally ripped off WRFF in Philly, as did  92.3.  This is almost a carbon copy of WRFF in Philly.   Same exact liners and very similar music.

they should make the station 92 rock again and bring back the smoker and the big daddy.

Yes, this has been pointed out twice in this thread already.

Just a clarification here - we did not talk to Nard.  The quote in the linked post is from AllAccess, which we gave the nod.  Note the upper case proper names.

I'm hearing Verlane may still be doing production.
