Vanessa Carlton "A Thousand Miles" into Van Halen "Jump"?

Who are they trying to kid?

I had a chance to listen to WMGX in a doctor's office Tuesday morning.  The music mix really didn't bother me. I actually enjoyed the variety the station claims to provide.

BUT....

What drove me crazy was Tim's 'canned liners!'  He rushed through 2 as if he was reciting the latin alphabet!

I've brought this up before, but it's not necessary to 'lecture a listener' on what ANY RADIO STATION is attempting to do.  Most of us have already figured the format out...and usually stay or go depending upon the presentation, the jock and how many commercials are crammed into a spot cluster!

I enjoyed the comments from Tim's co-hosts, Liz & Jamie.  These women actually sounded like REAL PEOPLE who weren't reading from a liner card! And if they WERE reading from a card...they certainly had me fooled!!

At least I still work in radio. What is it exactly you do?

BTW, my co-hosts are Jaime and Eva.  So much for listening closely.
