 Bout time..?

Just saw this as sdradio.net. Back to music in the mornings to compete with 91x? Will they bring in another talk show like Mikey? Clearing payroll for a sale of the cluster to someone?

Clearing payroll for a sale of the cluster to someone?

Well his contract expires in 2013 so presumably the money is still being spent on him. I suspect that's why he hasn't said anything on Facebook or Twitter: money for silence.

Thank God he is finally gone! he does nothing but drain a station of its payroll. Much like Jeff and Jerk! Maybe he can talk CC into a contract back with the original show for MUCH less money now that they know he has no talent alone.

Be interesting to see if they can improve the ratings now that this albatross is gone.

Garrett played a message from the station's GM while I was driving into work. They asked for people to email their ideas for a new morning show to ideas@fm949sd.com and said they would read each and every one. Wow, that certainly makes me feel really special.

Have they given up on the idea of just going back to music all the time (including the morning) since that is what 91x and Sophie are now doing as well?

Can we email format flip requests?

From SDRadio.Net
Lincoln Financial San Diego General Manager Rick Jackson tells All Access, “The rest of the morning show — Lauren O’Brien, Steve, Woods, and Jay Isbell will continue to be a part of mornings at FM 94/9. We may experiment with some additions to that team but I don’t have anything firm to offer at this point.”

Now this is interesting. Usually the ship goes down with the captain, but in this case, it seems that the morning staff is sticking around for mornings.
We'll what goes down. As far as regaining their daytime listening base back to mornings, I don't think the old cast of The Mikey Show will help.
I wonder what happened to Mikey. Rumor is that he quit because he was going through a rough patch in his life. Wonder if this has anything to do with being on 94.9...
