I really enjoyed WDET when they were music-centric during the day. Martin Bandyke, Ann Delisi, Judy Adams, Dave Dixon, etc,
I haven't listened during the week for years.

Re: Channel 7 provides fake traffic detour to avoid WB M-59 accident

I disagree. Failure to do proper due diligence is tantamount to dispensing fake news. This was carelessness, not a simple mistake. If the only error were the misspelling of Dobry, then I'd agree with you. What if somebody thought one name, put another down by mistake and off it went? That’s a mista...

Re: DeSantis drops out

I heard the same nonsense in 2020. I think it was Lester the Nightfly who predicted that Trump would have to be hauled out of the White House by security guards. He will pass on the torch in 2028 to whoever the Republican nominee is (probably his VP). I don't like all the election loss caterwauling...

Re: Channel 7 provides fake traffic detour to avoid WB M-59 accident

Does no one at 7 know how to use Google maps? To avoid a westbound M-59 accident near Dequindre, channel 7 advised exiting at Mound Rd, using "Dorby Rd" to head west (it is actually Dobry Rd), and then rejoining westbound M-59 at John R Rd. This advice was dispensed at about 6:02 this morning. Neve...

Re: FM Tower Toppled for $100 in Copper . . .

It's true that it's a Federal offense, but prosecutors are usually too lazy to file the charges. Too much paperwork involved. That's government for you.

Re: The Late Great Paul Christy

I remember he owned WCFX 99.5 and WCRM 990 in Mount Pleasant in the 80's. Paul actually had the WABX calls parked on 990, while he and some partners owned WCFX. Before that, it was WRNN "Rock 99" and before that, WCRM. Long before Paul's ownership, I believe the place burned to the ground, not once...

You have quite the imagination. Give the tabloids a rest. Since we think this is likely Audiophile, he's probably getting his concerns directly from his warped Evangelistic view's of God.

Re: People Just Don't Like Piling On

That is a big factor in Trump's support. Dumb motherfuckers love him, and everyone who supports him is one. I couldn't agree more! Apparently, the same is true for Georgie Bush. He was at a library dedication ceremony, and when asked by a reporter "What's your favorite book?" he replied, "Oh, I don...

Re: 2024 Primary Results Thread

I'll get flamed for saying this. But I see Trump's logic in sitting out the debates as long as he's so far ahead in the polls. Why take a chance of putting his foot in his mouth? Because he won't. Look at how he's worshipped and defended on this board alone. There's a lot more around the country. F...
