Everybody says they hate Cumulus. Well, they did just launch an almost perfect All-News station in the ATL. Now that takes some skill. #GoMcVayAndDickey

Sound like they ("they" being females) just walked in the booth and realize that news is suppose to begin.

I think you can hear a door slam.

Let's hope it DOES sound like this! I first heard this aircheck last fall. I've heard countless hours of both live radio and airchecks in my lifetime, and this is probably my favorite EVER.

I wish 106.7 success, but a launch blooper like this would cultivate more goodwill with yours truly than any quality news programming could. LOL.

This was onetime first of many indications Rand Michaels would fail. Looks like I was right.

I listened to their NY operation shortly after they started last summer.  Pretty lame!

Those call letters originated at a station in Vienna Georgia.

This is such a terrible format. It's such a shame the old fm talkers didn't work. There is such a thirst for male targeted radio.
