Good point, John.
Any and everyone who has been on air in a small market radio has done their own version of the "canned vegetable show."
I just thank Gawd no one has ever posted any of my on air work on Youtube!!

Oh, the irony...

You're talking about WATG/95.7,. right?

Is this the little station that's blocking big-time WSB/95.5 from moving closer to Atlanta? Cheesy

Also, is this a station that carries a format that people on this board having been screaming about? (Classic Rock - deep cuts) Shocked

THIS is funny; I love it!

I was going to ignore this one and let it pass.  But, it seems there is no pleasing you guys on this board.  You complain endlessly of the radio in a major market.  Why can't Atlanta be more like small market radio?  Then you blow up a small station and say they are the worst in America!  MAKE UP YOUR MINDS!  If they are meeting payroll and have LIVE AND LOCAL, they are successful!  You guys might try SUPPORTING a station once in a while.
 

John,  you took the words right out of my mou...... no, make that: Out of my fingertips!!!

The fans of radio seem to be singing from a hymn book entitled:  Damned if you DO, damned if you DON'T.  We don't care what you program... we're going to give it thumbs down.

I need to make a trip up there sometime soon.  We spent some time in those hills tracking down family from 150 years ago and we've got one elusive rascal we can't find.  My current theory is they buried him over in Alabama in a cemetery that was where Weiss Reservoir is now.  Anywhere you go in rural Georgia you are going to find a significant number of potential listeners whose ears are tuned a bit differently than what folklore tells us nationally that listeners want.  Rural Northwest Georgia would certainly be a place to use creativity in making radio LOCAL.

Radio-Info posters are a tough crowd to please!   Grin

Good grief, Charlie Brown, I'll say that's true! I've never seen such a fuss over something minor, trivial, and inoffensive as this. This one takes the cake for making the proverbial mountain out of a molehill, folks.

I agree, everybody in radio has hit the wrong button before, and he quickly corrected it and apologized and laughed about it.  I wish we had this format here in the big ATL.....As you all know.  Honestly there is nothing on the local dial that is even remotely worth listening to.  Not going to repeat this again.  I just do not listen to local radio at all any longer.

If you don't listen, how do you know there's nothing worth listening to?
