Super Market(ing)

So, I'm over at the local grocery store picking up my daily avocado, and what greets me on my windshield but this thing. It's interesting that Entercom went to such lengths to get the word out about the new station. I don't listen much to talk radio, but so far it has been kinda neat to have WEEI/WVEI on in Springfield. The signal does NOT seem particualrly great... and of course multi-path and picket fencing are always more prominent on a signal with no music. I wish them luck.

Roll Tape

Listener Tim McIntyre writes: "Maybe you can help me. I'm actually trying to find a tape of a very recent show on WTKK - October 19, to be exact.So far, I haven't heard back from the producer or program director, but I heard that if there is tape, they probably don't keep it long. Where would be the best place to track such a thing down? It was the Jay Severin show from 10/19 - specifically where he talked about a guy who was too fat to hang.I would really appreciate the help! Thank you a million!" If anyone can help, lemme know.

Mic Ritchell

So... Ric Mitchell is now on Albany's B95. I remember him way back from his days at WTRY in the mid 1970's. He and John Gabriel were the best jocks on the station then, under the old Herb scott regime. In his travels, it seems to me that he has been back to 'TRY a couple of times, along with WKLI, WGFM (remember "99 The Light"?) and at 1240 WVKZ (which I will always think of as WSNY). My ol' buddy Steve West of airchexx.com has an aircheck of Ric from 1979 on his website. You can listen here.
