It will go the way of Rush Radio 1200. The only thing we have left is WRKO.
Yes...I guess RKO 680 would continue as would WBZ 1030 which has talk at night (Dan Rea, revolving overnight hosts, Jordan Rich). There is no “progressive talk” station but NPR comes pretty close (including local hosts Candy Crossley and Emily “Thanks Dad” Rooney on Tote Bag Radio WGBH).
There are talk stations from surrounding areas that come in...
WHJJ 920 Prov, WTAG 580/94.9 Worc, WGIR 610 Manchester...I even get WZAN 970 across the water from Portland ME including Dennis Miller
