    The reviews of the Francessa replacement have been brutal and I'm not surprised. Not that I have listened to the show, but you can't go from Francessa to that. Mad Dog has been welcoming the "refugees" from WFAN over to Sirius. Such a Francessa move to come back and save the day after having a farewell tour.

    Carlin has always been a NY guy. I think (hope) his ship has sailed in Philly.

      I don't think they'll be replacing Johnny Marks any time soon:

      Marks and his 94.1 WIP co-host, former Eagles linebacker Ike Reese, defeated 97.5 The Fanatic’s longtime ratings champ in the 2018 winter ratings book, which uses data gathered from January through March to measure popularity.

      It was a narrow victory, less than a share among men ages 25 to 54, the most important listening demographic for both radio stations (all numbers in this story are for men 25 to 54). But it was the first time WIP defeated Missanelli in a quarterly book since 2015, when Missanelli lost to WIP’s short-lived duo of Josh Innes and Tony Bruno. Marks and Reese ended the most recent quarter in third place in the market, while Missanelli finished narrowly behind them in fourth place.

      But Eric Johnson, who took over as program director of The Fanatic in December, isn’t ready to concede the victory. Johnson pointed out that if you combine the terrestrial numbers with streaming ratings offered by Nielsen, Missanelli eked out the win over WIP.

      “They surely do win when you take the stream out of it, but in 2018, you can’t take the stream out of it,” Johnson said. “You write what you want to write, but I’m still saying Mike Missanelli beat WIP.”

      Spike Eskin, program director for WIP, said Johnson’s take is misleading because the way the data is collected by Nielsen is designed to measure radio ratings, not streaming numbers.

        Who’s his sidekick?

        Slappy White?
        John Erlichman, one of President Richard Nixon's closest aides, has admitted America's "War on Drugs" was a hoax designed to vilify and disrupt "the antiwar left and black people" when it was launched in 1971.
