Coming from a woman who didn't even know her husband had the job until Singer told her... not the most credible source to cite.
Nice rumor - but obviously, we heard otherwise, and kept it quiet. This was done in a day now.
My point was that Ron is spinning this as a positive change, but most listeners would prefer to have Bob on the show. Bob's the Simon Cowell of PBW and replacing him with Lee & Chad will be a snooze fest.
Of course, why be a sourpuss on it, and be all negative on a change. Things happen, there were conflicts and differences, and now, we have two more industry people who have good knowledge. We will see how interesting it is after a few episodes.
On an unrelated note...Lonnie Teper gets overlooked again...
Had lunch with Lonnie today at the 94th Aero Squadron Restaurant here near the Van Nuys airport, and the problem is simple. Lonnie Teper is a college teacher for the past 20+ years, who during school season, works on Monday night, making it hard to be available on a 'live' committed radio show. He has been offered a radio show before, and even now, since he knows so much about the industry, is on various radio shows commentating (just was on All Access on Monday). Yes, some of us do have to be at work on Mondays.
