(insert fill in host here) Howie Carr live ping.
Here are some responses to a post on SaveWRKO.com about Howie taking the week off—is he “taking an early slide” and won’t be back? My bet is, he will.
1)Sandy said Howie will be gone all week (burning off some vacation time, he had said) and will return next Mon—raccoonradio
2)In my mind, as long as we hear him again, that is what is important. ‘RKO has no idea how much anger is out here with moves that make no sense. It is a situation that lends itself to trying to travel a river of no return. It almost makes the replaying of the entire baseball game “after the game” and the announcing of every single commercial a joyous happening!!—kate
3)Hello? Anybody home? I can fill in for Ho-Ho Carr this week! Swing by the BK drivethru in Natick to speak to me. I am better than Avi Nelson and Admiral Hunt.—I Am Slotto
4)Frankly, any of the Burger King drive through guys are easier to understand than Col Hunt.—Brian Maloney
(Radio Equalizer & Save WRKO)
5)I don’t think the col. would have been on if Howie was gone - he is Howie’s boy.—Brian
6)I would expect Howie to be out quite a bit over the summer as he burns off his vacation days. I guess he’s planning on not needing them in the fall - either way he’s under a new contract. Also, while I don’t know the particulars, I would bet that there is more to Entercom’s argument than simply the non-compete. At the end of the day, I think he goes, but I don’t think it is cut and dried, or easy.—Legal Listener
7)Turning on RKO at 3pm and not hearing Howie is one of my biggest Bug-a-hoos.—Rich
LOL!
Usually VB would do some fill-in. In this case,not so much!
Some other bug-a-hoos.
Felon Finneran fills in.
Mumbles fills in
When that happens, you know WRKO has gone all the way over to the Dark Side.

I liked VB’s radio show too.
Does anyone know if Giles is still alive?
This Bites.
What’s good to listen to on the Internet @ 3:00pm Eastern Time?
Suggestions?
Hannity...Jerry Doyle...maybe even Severin if you can take him
Thanks, I’ve never listened to Jerry Doyle - will try that today.
Hannity? - Just once in awhile for me - unless I’m in the Albany area - then it’s just him or NPR /barf [although it’s good to keep up on what those wacky NPR’ers are up to]
Severin? - Definitely need to be in the mood to listen to him - don’t believe I’m in that mood today ;)
Thanks for the Doyle suggestion
VB-another possible “fat bastard” substitute for Howie Carr. Has VB lost some weight recently?
Just when I thought they finally straightened out their mess. Howie was on Friday at 3PM, in stead of 4, and even Hunt was on at 3PM yesterday.
At least Miller has been somewhat reliable in the late morning...
yikes—HC supposed to be on 4-7 and Ingraham 2-4...are
they not opting to carry Howie with a guest host?
The Monday that the HC news leaked out, WVMT's whole week went to Hell. Probably some coincidental technical glitch.
Why throw most of the schedule into turmoil over a three hour slot if they didn't have technical problems? At worse, which is what they did at least one day, was to rebroadcast the local morning show.
It was a crap shoot: Ingraham, Doyle, BOR, Charilie & Ernie, etc. They even screwed up the Miller show in the late AM.
HC was doing promo ads about hoping to be on WVMT for a long time, so why not advertise? Maybe it royally messed up the sales staff and/or accounts?
Avi should be tell the guy to tone it down. The shouting is overloading the audio.
If it was Howie it would have been "Good bye" a while ago.
But I don't want him as president, either.
I'll go with Howie's historical fact and say I generally don't want any senator as a president. They know squat about management, and are surrounded by nothing but suck-ups for staff.
Of course, Carter and Clinton did nothing for the reputation of governors...
The sad truth is that “Ken” represents the Moonbat Majority of all of the northeastern states, most of the major cities throughout the U.S., and in all of the other “Democratic Party strongholds” throughout the U.S.! Very scary stuff! This country will definitely be in a long-term “mess” if the Democrats truly end up winning everything in ‘08 from the Presidency on down!
“Ken”/”Mike” for a Presidential ticket of the Moonbat Majority Party in ‘08! LOL
