The Roar 93.5/99.1 is done... for real this time
The Roar 93.5/99.1 is done... for real this time
From RadioInsight.
"The UK based Podcast Radio Network has launched on Beasley Media Group properties in four markets.
Beasley has flipped “Fox Sports Charlotte” 94.7 W234BY/103.7 WSOC-HD3 Charlotte NC, Classic Hip Hop “The Bounce” 101.5 W268AH Bonita Springs/96.5 W243BM Suncoast Estates/103.9 WXKB-HD2 Cape Coral/Fort Myers FL, Sports “The Roar” 93.5 W228CJ/99.1 W256EA/WCSX-HD2 Detroit, and Business “Money Talk 1010” WJBR Seffner/Tampa FL to “Podcast Radio US“.
The Podcast Radio US programming consists of short segments from various podcasts with our brief sampling including clips of Alan Alda interviews with Paul McCartney and Carol Burnett, someone discussing how glass is made, a conversation about the steel industry, and a promo for WRIF Detroit host Meltdown’s show."
What a waste.... So many things they could of done.... Motown, oldies, smooth jazz.... Oh well.

It's obvious this Podcast Radio U.S. outfit is paying for airtime.
As soon as their checks begin to bounce, this format will be gone. I'll be surprised if it's still on the air a year from now.

It's stunning the Roar didn't get more than a 0.0 share with his presence in afternoon drive!
Beasley is just keeping these translator signals warm until they can be unloaded, in my opinion.
Sister station 98.3's audio is inaudibly low yet again. Happens at least a dozen times each month.

Podcasts on the radio -- considering that people listen to them over the internet at their leisure, it's a format that no one except the suits asked for.

Could these be the FM translators Adell is looking at?

Very possible; he won't gain much in the way of useful FM coverage across Oakland County, though. 93.5 covers Wayne and far southern Macomb decently. 99.1 covers a small chunk of Oakland and a small chunk of Macomb decently. Troy, Rochester Hills, Shelby Twp and a portion of Sterling Heights get a decent signal.

WIOT and WLLZ both run half-hour shortened podcasts during weekend overnights.

I think it is worth noting The Roar scored a 0.0 share over the breadth of its entire existence. That's a remarkable feat considering any registered PPM device listening of at least 10 minutes (or is it 5 minutes?) on two separate occasions is assured at least a 0.1 share in published 6+ data.
Even the very ill conceived 94.3 The Bone (remember them?) on *that* rotten signal managed a 0.3 or 0.4 on a couple occasions.

This could be a temporary move. I could also see Beasley selling them soon.

I generally agree. Beasley just announced its 99.5 WJBR in Wilmington, DE (with decent coverage of at least half of the Philly market) is being sold.
I do not believe they own the 99.1 translator; I believe they are leasing it under an LMA.

I liked the ROAR(minus H U G E). The problem is I could only pick up the station when I visited my doctor in Rochester.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Is the Woodward Sports Network next?
Re: The Roar 93.5/99.1 is done... for real this time
Now that The Roar is gone does Birach have anything to lose if AM 1160 becomes Sports? Why not double your audience so you can have a 0.1 in the ratings?
