"Apologies to those who don't live in the Bay Area. But hey KFOG fans, I should let you know that the new program director isn't a big TV fan, so after 10 years of being on the air every Monday, he'd prefer a 'when TV news is relevant' kind of deal, where I appear randomly. Not sure that's a deal I'm eager to take, but I have enjoyed my time there for a decade (!) and will miss Webster, Peter, Renee and Greg."
Tim's post was followed by some GREAT anti-KFOG comments. Here are a couple:
"I quit KFOG a while ago due to the horrible music recycling program they have going on, but I've ALWAYS tuned in during the morning show to catch you - and sometimes just to see if anything had changed for the better (sadly never the case, last week they were actually spelling words - spelling, on the radio. I guess nothing else was going on in the world...) Though I knew everything would go to shit as soon as Dave left, I had a small amount of hope that I was wrong. I was not. Bay area radio is dead."
"What an idiotic decsion. Other than 10@10. Not much reason to listen to KFOG these days. What, do they need more time to play 'Little Lion Man' one more time?"
Peter Hartlaub, who is on KFOG occasionally, commented, too:
Peter Hartlaub:
Does this program director know how many World Class Rock Blocks from Genesis I endured to listen to you over the past decade? Kidding. Dumb move on their part. I'll continue to enjoy Webster, Renee, Peter and Greg but miss the Monday ritual.... Expect a phone call from me every Mon. at 8:30 a.m. asking you if "Charmed" is coming back, just so you won't miss the routine too much."
I like Tim, but I hardly paid attn to his Monday's on KFOG, b/c I don't have cable or a DVR. If I did, I'd never leave home. I did notice when he talked up big series, like The Wire or Rome, etc, and I would eventually get around to watching them on DVD, but most of the TV shows he (or other people) like are just not on my radar.
