Mike,
Agreed. But they do it all for ratings. Money talks. Enough to run any
program that sells ads. Fear sells ads, politics sells ads. Talk radio
must do pretty well to stay on the air. Almost every market has the EIB
Network or C2C if nothing else.
I called in on Ray Breem's show on KABC

I spoke on the air with Ray Briem on KABC 790 about BCB dx many years ago. It'd
be nice if more hosts would discuss such topics. Art Bell has of course from
time to timems
Many years ago when WJR was operated as a regional radio station
Joe,
Another station that used to talk about their long distance calls was
CKLW. It was really exciting for stations in those days to get a letter
or call from a distant listener.
You are right The Good Ol' Days.

Too bad. Not a bad moderate to liberal service. At least Ed Shultz is

I consider Ed Shultz on Jones a moderate and a couple others. Randi
Rhodes is off the scale Liberal. Thom Hartmann, also on FSTV is
interesting too.

I'm not really getting into politics. I just don't like any broadcasting
company going bust. Even the ones I don't care for, but money talks and
if you don't have the green stuff, you go away. We have seen it hundreds
of times. There just seems to be not enough money to support the
broadcasting

I'm amazed Air America lasted as long as they did. I think a long time
ago, the Left and the Right got together and divvied things up. The
Left took control of TV and the Right took control of radio. It's as
if that's now a law of nature, and any attempt of one to trespass on
the other's

Been a fan of KGO since the 1960's when their first talk show came from
the Hungry I in SF, hosted by Les Crane. Later on Ira Blue was there
for years. KGO is one great station. One of the few that has kept their
format. I guess with the internet, KGO has listeners worldwide. Their
signal is right
I listen to KGO on rare occasions. While they have kept their format
essentially intact for centuries, I find it generally boring. A special
guest on a program may make it worthwhile for me to listen, but listening to
KGO is like eating the same thing for dinner 8700 nights in a row. Its

I miss Rothman on the weekends, as I never listen before around Midnight
or one and I listened to Rothman on the weekends, but he moved to Week
nights (Bernie Ward's old spot). KGO is a great station.

Mike,
KGO is tough to listen to in Reno too. They have a tight null. I know a
lot of people that will not listen to any talk radio as they find them
boring. I also enjoy CtoC at times, depending on the subject. We need
more talk shows on DXing!!!

I'll listen to C2C sometimes, but I am finding radio pretty boring these
days. My pet peeve with C2C is when they put on shows about the worldwide
calamities that you can do nothing about. I once sent an email to George
Noory, basically telling him that the doom and gloom shows could be enough
