Competition to Coast to Coast

[dustintv]

Hmm lets see well there is not much is there? The Midnight Truckin Network gets airplay on some big stations like WBAP and WJR but let's not kid ourselves. Joey Reynolds? 15 years maybe, today no. And name a station over 1000kw that airs America Tonight with Kate Delaney. Any guesses? I think not. Jim Bohannon a fantastic guy but is endlessly re-running his show the answer? Guess paranoia and kooky conspiracies win.

I just resently found Overnight America with Jon Grayson(1-6 am EST). It is heard on KMOX (St.Louis) KDKA (Pittsburg) and WCCO (Minneapolis). I have found the show to be a refreshing change of pace from all the right-wing pollitical crap and the tin foil wearing UFO nuts.

Here's the link for Overnight America:

Regreattably (for me), the only one of the three stations that overnight America is on that I can receive is KMOX and that reception is iffy. (There are locals on 1010 and when I null out the splatter, 1020 is not KDKA , but a Cuban station and the situation is about the same on 830, with a local 820.)

Hopefully they will add more stations in the near future.

Roy Masters airs on TRN from 1-3, and repeats. And if you count sports, you've got ESPN and FSR running live overnight programming.

John & Jeff are listenable overnights.

I would also be interested in an alternative to the UFO'er and the truck'er.

I really cannot stay very interested in the C2C show with all of its extended breaks and excruciatingly long music intros, let alone the kid glove treatment George Noory offers his guests. The show was/is more interesting with Art Bell because its was actually more realistic as even with the total kooks he had as guests, you could tell Art thought at least 75% of them were crazy.

The trucking network actually provides great information regarding current events, but when the host returns to 'trucker talk' I turn it off.

I'll try Overnight America next time I can't sleep.

Rick Barber from CC's Mile High 850 KOA Denver allegedly reaches 38 states.

Rick is a Libertarian, and that can be a plus for the unconventional unpredictable overnight audience demographic.

I hope Rollye James can get back into terrestrial syndication. Again, a Libertarian, as is Art Bell.

Really? I thought FSR did away with live hosts in the overnights and now runs pre-recorded segments branded as "Fox Soup".

During the week it's on a 38 hour delay but CHML 900 out of Hamilton, Ontario runs Dr. Joy Browne 7 nights a week 2AM-5AM Eastern. I'd rather listen to her (even if I heard the show previously on WDRC or WOR) than the nut jobs on Coast to Coast and Joey Reynolds and Friends.

Also local hosts on WBZ 1030 in Boston, MA

8PM-Midnite Dan Rea
Midnite-5AM Steve LeVeille

Weekends
Midnite-5AM Jordan Rich

Not very likely. It seems to be her way or the highway when it comes to running her show. She couldn't even stay with Premiere very long to be a Sunday host for Coast to Coast. One of her pet peeves was she couldn't play the bumper music she wanted. Shortwave WWCR does play her show on a delay now, from 12-3 AM CT.

FSR recently brought Tony Bruno back to the network, and he took JT The Brick's slot. JT moved to overnights, so FSR once again has live overnight programming.
