So how long have we be doing the "Ticket is dying" bit? 10 years? 15 years?

For me, it was when Jake and Dan left

Rhines checking out for several years and leaving
Force fitting Bob on the hardline.
Sirois leaving
Danny leaving
Dan and Jake leaving
Craig and Jub getting more disinterested followed by cutting the show by 90 minutes and getting 1/4 of the year as vacation

In a perfect world

Musers
Donny and Sirois
Dan and Jake
Hardline

Doubt many would say death is close with that lineup

Even with that lineup, traditional radio is dying everywhere. That might have slowed it a little bit but the station has been a deadman walking for years now because of the change in media consumption.

The Musers didn't cut their show out of disinterest. Their paychecks got cut, and as part of the negotiation, they cut back on their time so that the station could back fill those hours with cheaper programming options. It still didn't help…Cumulus filed bankruptcy just the same.

With the legal filing, I'm curious to see how they adjust the morning and afternoon drive slots. Will they try to honor all of the contracts? Will they cut bait with some key aspects? The bankruptcy filing and their 2 week March vacations aligning is pretty interesting.

And….for the moment….we're back!

Our long national nightmare is over.

Today's Rant Revival was a classic

That was awesome. Laughed out loud multiple times. Including at corby's line where he asked "what do you mean, like as the stone?" when they were wondering if he was good at curling . No one even picked up on that one but I thought it was the best joke of the segment.

I think my favorite part was Gordo explaining how he went to a hospital to "Frankenstein some arms and legs as a disguise". You know its a good segment when I'm cry laughing and the woman who lives in my house (who heard the segment) just says "what is wrong with you?"

I think his point was it's not some high speed highway where you typically expect to see rollovers.

C'mon Tiger. Just put a driver on the payroll. Or buy a self driving car.
