from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WKY

In an effort to target Oklahoma City's growing Hispanic population, "SuperTalk" ended in January 2006, replaced by a simulcast of KINB "La Indomoble 105.3 FM." Because KINB was divested as part of the Citadel-ABC Radio merger, the simulcast on WKY was dropped June 12, 2007.

Since that date, WKY has broadcast a computerized countdown as a lead-in to its impending format change. The countdown was originally calibrated to introduce the new format as of 9:00 a.m. CDT on Monday, June 18, 2007. However, the countdown has since been re-calibrated to end on 9:00 a.m. CDT, Wednesday, June 19, 2007. The countdown consists of the words "T-minus _____ days, _____ hours, _____ minutes, _____ seconds, and counting," and followed every fourth iteration by some trivial comment, such as “How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?” Other trivial comments typically consist of movie quotes or popular song lyrics.

Station representatives have declined to comment on the future format of the radio station.

I was flipping through the stations yesterday and came across it. Its kinda freaky. I wish they would bring back the supertalk format. Local talk radio.

Rumor has it that they are going to an all sports talk format.

Theres three sports talk radio stations already. The animal, the ref, and some new station that had Jennie Carlson on it. Maybe a fox station.

I've heard he was a felon but never got a story as to what he did. Whats the scoop?

RacerX
6/19/2007, 01:00 PM
I'll try to dig up the news story.

His wife was an accountant for a guy in Edmond. The guy in Edmond owned 5 or so Burger Kings. She stopped paying his bills and started pocketing the money that should've gone to pay the bills. She throws additional billings, collection notices in the trash. Dude has to close several stores.

Her and James start living like Richard Pryor in Superman III.

She opens a cookie business, he starts showing up to his crap radio gig in a new vette, etc.

They both got nailed on taxes, she may have additionally picked up an embezzling charge. He does some time in a fed prison.

This happened mid 1980s.

Here's how much I hate listening to James Hale: I'd rather listen to Robert Allen. That's significant when you consider that I'd rather get a tooth pulled than listen to Robert Allen.

I'd rather put my eyes out with a hot poker than listen to Allen. I'm just saying that Hale disgusts me even more. Plus, when forced to listen to RA, you can be mildly entertained by the unintentional Baghdad Bob aspects of his "reporting." It's much more unseemly and embarrassing when it's a "Sooner" acting like that.

WWLS and WKY are both owned by the Citadel. I doubt they would compete against themselves with another sports station, but maybe.

Here is the new lineup

Steely just gave the line up:
Mike and Mike start of the morning
Billy Tubbs Show 9am
Pat Jones 10am
Pat Jones 11am
Dan Patrick from noon - 3
Jack Mildren and Ron Thulin from 3-6

Pat Jones for two hours is pure suckage...you are right about that.

I listened to it for about 2 minutes today......It was Pat and Dean and Dean was stating...."You may not like it, but we are going to talk a lot of Golf. We are just ate up with it."

I changed the channel immediately.

It does not make any sense....The mourning animals will loss ratings to the sports animals because Mike and Mike really talk sports.

Also jim and al are going to take a hit to ratings due to Doug's show (because the pokes will tune in and I think he does a good job), and Particks show

I'm excited about being able to listen to Mike & Mike on my morning drive. Billy is good for a listen and Doug will be good when Al is talking about food or Dubai or something.

I just wish they wouldn't have ALL the golf guys on around lunch time. That's the main time I turn the channel.

Whatever the case, I like having the options and finally Mike&Mike and Dan Patrick.

Dean can be a real ******* sometimes. sometimes?
