I think I would have like it better by moving BaD Radio to drive time and moving Corby and Danny to midday, adding Jake as the co-host.

I see that Julie got her ass hung up on by the station. It SOUNDS temporary but who knows.

from the link:


"Over 80% – the vast majority – of Cumulus’ salaried employees will be taking 3 individual weeks of furlough. That’s unpaid leave where they cannot do any work."


The bold part. Ha. I have found that the employer will still call you and hem haw around about wanting you to do things.

I was surprised to hear this. Surely her salary wasn't so high that Cumulus had to cut it to survive. Seems like messing with the OAT would be a last resort unless management is just using this as an excuse to trim the fat (hire out of necessity, fire out of convenience). I don't listen to midday very much but from what I heard Dobbs was on air quite a bit and she actually brought something to the table.

From what I understand about the furlough, this is highly illegal. If they ask you to do something or boot up your work lappy for any reason, they gotta pay you for that day. If they want you to work for free, I hope you're telling them where to stick it.

Their ad revenue has got to be in the shitter big time. I listened on the app one morning a couple of weeks ago and there were no ads. Just dead air between segments.

I've pretty much stopped listening. I will play some bad radio segments like the open and 1:30 news that they post on their website tho.

A few times i had customers call me and I relayed what they were wanting to the office. Then a few times the office would call and ask for contact info stuff for people I had made deals with in the past. (They didn't have a CRM platform like SalesForce or anything) This rubbed me the wrong way, cause it's my "value" and "leverage" but i gave it to them. The owner dude calls a couple of times a week to shoot the shit about stuff and I usually answer cause it gets kind of lonely on solitary lockdown with 3 dogs. Last week he called as he was going to cook out for lunch and invited me. I passed, mostly because he was cooking a wild hog he killed on his property. Have you ever eaten wild hog? It's not that great. Pretty tough and dry plus he field dresses everything so you get these hack job cuts of meat. Bleh.

After experiencing the furlough with this, I think layoffs are better as there is more of a finality to the arrangement. Furloughs leave you with a pathetic hope that maybe you'll be hired back. Kind of like getting dumped but still strung along.

I might catch a segment or two of D&M a couple of mornings a week, but outside of that I rarely listen. I've given the new Hardline (or whatever they're calling it) a chance, but the forced Odd Couple arrangement just doesn't work.

You two best change your tune or you're gonna land on PTSC's shitlist.

Just heard a Ticket promo with Julie interviewing one of the Stars. I'm sure it's Sean throwing her some love but that's gotta sting a little.
