Never did much imaging work, but here goes, based on their Facebook page...

I saw him at the Zoo with his young kids not long before he left Detroit. He struck me as quite full of himself.

Completely agree with what Colonel wrote!

KFNS-FM is a tiny class A station located about 60 miles NW of St. Louis.

Mr. Faust should seriously consider therapy. I feel bad for his family. He completely threw what I'm sure was a very good paying job completely out the window.

He characterized his transgression as a big "mistake". I think that doesn't begin to describe his abhorrent behavior.
There HAS to be more to this story... aside from the morning drive "moonlighting" on a small market FM, which makes little sense, I suspect his interactions with the lady he unloaded on, goes way beyond "co-host"... we've all worked in a radio station with people we don't like, but this goes way beyond that. If I had to guess, Vic will turn up on the sales floor at a St. Louis area car dealership, or maybe try real estate, while he attempts to rebuild his reputation. We've seen this show before.

I follow exactly what you're saying. Interesting theory. Sounds plausible.

Dumb jerk. He made 2 mistakes: 1. Saying it in the first place; 2. Getting caught.

It looks like he's deactivated his Twitter and possibly other social media too.

I had some limited interactions with him locally and yes, I felt the same way. For having spent 11 years in this market, the mention of his name recently got the “Who?” response from most people I know!

He was at WMUZ doing interviews back in the day with the morning show. Kind of shocked to see this.


They/them, non-binary and proud.

The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.

That actually doesn't surprise me given WMUZ's far-right orientation.
