What did he say about Calloway?
I remmeber back in the late 1980s he had on his show the mayor of Tuscaloosa. He said the city was going to launch an effort to get the University to improve Bryant-Denny and get all home games on campus and away from Birmingham. He didn't give many details about how he was going to do it. Finebaum was totally rude to him and made fun of him afterwards, saying there was no way it was going to happen.
I wish I had a tape of that to play now.
Herb isn't the most exciting guy in the world, but I'd rather hear an all day marathon of the Sports Roundtable hosted by the Apache than ten minutes of Slimebaum.

They have a GREAT AM/FM talk station in that market. www.wgow.com/They successfully manage a small FM and a large AM by selectively sharing programming and offering the best mix of local and national, right and left, etc.

I've always been a talk show junkie. I would listen to shows at night when I was a kid. I could pick up KMOX and listened all the time.
What is the name of the guy who hosted the financial advice show? He'd close each call with "I wish you well".
Speaking of Coulter, I was listening this morning and he was hinting his new AM show would soon be cancelled. Griffin didn't say anything but Coulter went on about it for several minutes. Anyone know if this is serious? I'd hate to see them go as I prefer them to the FM crew of Jay and Al's over homerism for UA/AU and Tony Kurree's drug induced ramblings.

By "drug induced" I meant alcohol.

I'm not at all sad if coulter is cancelled! But I TOTALLY AGREE with you about the FM 'crew'!

Heh, you might have head Jim White on a lot of nights from the 60's to the 90's... www.stlradio.com/hof-legacy-3.htm" Jim White held forth at KMOX as a fixture in the nighttime hours for 20 of his 30 years at the station, retiring in 1999. Because KMOX enjoyed clear channel status with 50,000 watts of power, his show was often heard over much of North America." " He made irascibility a mainstay of the overnight show, often cutting off callers in midstream if he considered them boring." (hmm... Things haven't changed all that much in the last 30 or 40 years... LOL) BTW, check out the rest of the StL radio hall of fame site. You might be supprised at how many nationally famous people are there, and most of the credit should go to Robert Hyland (GM of KMOX for 38 years) who was the best radio exec. ever...

sol-
Interesting that you brought up Chattanooga.
I had the pleasure to communicate via email and on the Bernie Goldberg website forum with an on-air guy named Jay Kersting who was on 103.3.
In my travels on my job, I was able to occasionally get their signal and hear his show and I thought he did a pretty good job. He was definitely right of center but more libertarian (little "L") than Republican and that's a perspective you dont hear very often or, when you do, hear it articulated well.

Yeah, I miss living there. Chattanooga's an odd mixture of hippies, fundamentalist Christians, and politics of all stripes, but the city works well. They can manage such tasks that Birmingham fails at miserably including road repairs, urban renewal, public-private development projects, a unified school district, fiscal planning, maintaining public order, attracting new businesses, building and operating a first-rate convention center; you get the picture. I miss Chattanooga every day and I hope to move back there within a couple of years once I'm able to telecommute. Also, Chattanooga is able to do all of this without a state or local income tax. I don't remember Jay Kersting. The station had a shakeup a few years back when one of their on-air personalities was caught in a couple of DUI's and eventually fired.
