Fantastic news.
My only fear is that Howie’s slowing down a bit. I hope he doesn’t turn soft.
I hope WTKK can syndicate his show because that station drops when you get past Sturbridge - but they are on the Net ;)
Who cares...It is the Peoples Socialist Republic of Massachusetts, let us move on here....
Somehow I think that this will be good. WRKO has really fallen apart and Howie’s better off where he’ll be appreciated. He’ll also suck whatever life there is out of Tommy’s show.
I wonder how well Howie and Jay Severin will get along?
If true, I hope his new station allows him to do the show exactly the way he wants, politically incorrect sound effects and all. I’ve gotten used to listening him after work, when I was tired and needed a few laughs to pick me up—it’ll be a little strange listening to him in the morning.
Interesting development. Howie Carr detested Imus because Imus made a filthy, utterly debauched comment on air about Carr’s wife, (something to do with Carr’s wife, anal sex and a black man, if I recall correctly). The Carr family eventually sued and recieved an out of court settlement from Imus. Howie Carr revealed this story on his show shortly after the Imus debacle came out.
Holy mackeral. Wow.
Damn, I love him in the Afternoon, I’m not usually listening to the radio in the morning.
So Michael Graham is gonna jump ship and take over Howie’s spot?
I wonder if Howie’s show will also eventually be shown live on MSNBC? Howie would help their ratings as well as be seen by a much wider, national audience. It’s a missed opportunity for MSNBC if they don’t do this, but Howie Carr has never been impressed by the existence of MSNBC to begin with. Howie makes fun of MSNBC a lot, and whenever he discusses the ratings of any of its shows, Howie’s “sound person” cues some chirping crickets. LOL
If this means Howie will be leaving the 3pm timeslot I hope my local station will put on Mark Levin even though it would have to be a delayed show from the day before
Good for Howie!
Did you know about this? I listen to Howie (frequently, but not every day) in my area on WHYN 560 AM (Springfield, MA). I kind of like him in that 3-7pm time slot... hope they still run his show during that time.
Way cool! I'll be able to listen to him out in Worcester. But I wish he was on in the afternoons. Do they do podcasts? I'm surprised that Finneran's bombing. I like him. It looks like they're grooming Todd Feinberg to take over from him. Howie's morning show will be the last nail in the coffin.
