I would be more inclined to believe Kathy & Judy over Pig Vomit.

Just another reason Pig Virus is the best thing to happen to WLS since the MusicRadio days.

Years ago I had lunch with Methany at The Docks, he had to leave early because in his words, "I gotta get back and fire the afternoon jock." on one of the Cleveland FM's. He loves that stuff.

I bet it was WMMS. I wonder if the victim was Slats.

Pig Vomit is a piece of garbage. I wonder if he's actually calling the shots at WGN or is just Sean Compton and Randy Michaels' puppet.

I thought Randy Michaels got hired to run the radio group for Tribune in 2nd City, so why is Pig Vomit still there? Michaels should hire Howie Stern for one day for a cage match between the two with a blow by blow account on the radio.

He was hired to run the entire company, not just 1 station.

From what I heard, the potrayal of Methany by Paul Giamat in the movie Private Parts was dead on.

I've heard Metheny talk about it and he pretty much chuckled about it and was amused by it and made some snug remark about that disclaimer that they put at the end of the closing credits of movies.

I still cant understand why Calvert, a guy from mid-michigan, is soooooo offended by 2 wealthy old ladies from Chicago's north shore getting fired from their lame mid-day radio show. |I

and by the way, Kevin's father, Terrell Metheny, is a radio LEGEND, from those old days that Calvert longs for. so Pig Vomit cant be all bad... Kevin always seems to get criticized for his inter-office memo's. here's a link to some memo's that Kevin's Dad wrote back in the day at WKLO Louisville:

http://www.1080wklo.com/wklomethenymemos.htm

sorry, but not all good managers or PD's going into battle are going to be nice guys. :( ok, flame at will, old dudes.

I wonder if former WMMS'er Maxwell will join WGN. Maxwell was the guy who replaced Slats at WMMS. Although Slats' firing was highly unpopular, the Maxwell Show fared very well.

That's a matter of perspective. What you call lame, I call classy. Then again, you probably think Jimmy Launce was "lame"

Sorry, but just because he's got the genes doesn't automatically mean he's got the talent or the wisdom.

BTW, the information I have is that WGN's numbers have taken a dive since Michaels and Metheny took over. That might explain why the station is starting to accept questionable, low-credibility advertising (those people usually pay cash up front).

Metheny showed his true colors by lying to the listeners about Kathy & Judy. There's not being a nice guy....then there's not having any credibility.

I'm glad that you know everything Kayla. I've met a lot of younger folks who apparently do (or so they think). Come to think of it, I had the world figured out when I was 20 too. Now I realize that I don't know half of what I thought I knew then.
