Re: GRPD on HBO Max
It is on FREE CABLE tuesday evenings. I realize that's an oxymoron but its out there on cable anyway. Don't need HBO or MAX or whatever. Discovery Channel has it.

Re: Remembering former radio stations that introduced you to great artists
1969 or 1970 WLAV FM had a syndicated show with Brother John playing , I'll call it San Fransico sound/underground what we would now call AOR. Brother John Rydgren was his name. Under the label Love Radio and used a bit from the Association tune Love. Good stuff IMHO, well before WLAV FM came about ...

Wood TV Weekend News
Adriana Doria is doing a GREAT JOB in my honest opinion. So much better than the previous anchor, and I use that term grudgingly.

Thats a damn shame. Did a very good job of newscasting IMHO. Maybe they can get Susanne Geha back? With Chopper 8!

Re: Sam leaving WZZM or is she the new chief?
GOOD JOB WZZM! Sam does a great job IMHO. And yes, the weather ladies from various stations seem to party with each other on a regular basis. As goes their Facebook pages anyway.

Re: Pack it in WOOD TV
Wait until she tries to pronounce WABASIS Lake. I agree 110% with every one of your posts. I just HAVE TO TURN THE STATION when TV8 Weekend News and Funnies come on the screen. The new girl at WWMT, Princess Johne does a very good job IMHO. WXMI got rid of almost all their competent help so they are ...
