KXNO/iHeart Layoffs

Especially since that is kinda a second job for them. Can't imagine they would be able to cover everyone else's job as most of these idiots in charge seem to believe. But hey, we have stock to buyback.
No offense to those who work in the field, but radio is kind of an obsolete technology. Podcasts have functionally replaced it in the media ecosystem.
It seems like it’s a little bit of everything. Good amount of sports talk and they had Todd Blythe on for the bowl game
Not going to too political here but they will experience the same as I have done with national TV. Click... gone.
For those confused by my statement, I apologize. I was let go today too.
On the plus side I have one less app on my phone. Gone. don't need that anymore.
I dont want this to come off poorly but maybe was it a blessing in disguise with how busy you are?
Well anyway hope you get to enjoy some more baby time now.
Same, Ross is an all round good dude. LOL I was listening live to when the rant went down and it's still one of my favorite KXNO moments. Any reading the piece of hate mail he received is still number one for me though.
They found a new guy Tarty Myrell who agreed to do all the shows at half the cost!
Not sure how much you are allowed to comment but did they give any reasons behind these moves? Obviously looks like they are going to national shows in your time slots, damn that sucks.
Really enjoyed you and Ross over the years, by far the best local show there has been in the market over the years. Too bad they couldn't let you all do a sendoff show and all the listeners could show up to El Bait Shop or somewhere for 1 last toast!
Speaking of which has anyone spotted Heather at a local watering hole yet? Dang she has had some rough go arounds in this market over the years...
Highly encourage everyone to sign up for SuperFanatic status, No Ads!
Don't listen to a ton of sports radio, but there goes most of my reasons to.
Miller is heavily sighing going to break.
Itll be interesting how this show ends.

That's not true at all. Podcasts are absolutely seeing increases in listeners, but it's not like radio is losing people.

However, decisions like this certainly aren't going to help those numbers in any way
