Oh me of little faith...back on the air this morning after at least a week off the air...same format

Still off the air...website says nothing (looks like it was created but has never been updated). I would hasten to guess this little experiment has failed.

The old Black Bear is now known as 'Thirsty's'...and it is the very definition of a dive bar

Do the stations follow Lake Superior State University in their sports stories? That is in the UP.
