I received this email this afternoon:
Dear Itchy;
We've launched a fund-raising drive here at Melody Ranch so that Pat Buttram and I can try to re-purchase KVI radio and restore some sanity to the airwaves.
In the meantime, if anyone is in the Los Angeles area can you please stop by Forest Lawn Cematery and bring a shovel, some rope and several spikes. I need to configure some type of netting so that I will stop spinning in this fucking grave.
Regards,
Mr. Gene Autry

listened to the Wall Sreet recap for a gew hours...not bad, not bad. upbeat, informative,....they repeat taped segments though, round and round, so if you listen for more than an hour youre going to be hearing them again. cant stand clark howard,,,,love imus and hendrie, who are coming up at ten. two out of three aint bad. ill catch elisa jaffe tomorrow morning. She has to be better than sarcastic sourpuss Bryan Suits.

My grandma would have loved Scott Carty, but she died in 1980. What an incredibly boring, lifeless man.

Ronny: Excellent observation. My grandma, too, would have liked Scott Carty. But she died in 1958. Scott is to talk radio what Lawrence Welk was/is to rock.
I'm sure he's a very nice man and has some talent. But the segments I've heard so far are so incredibly bland and vanilla I feel like I'm watching a Saturday Night Live parody of a milquetoast radio host.
There's just no 'there' there.
He talks but says nothing.

Seems like a vanilla format, except for Phil Hendrie, who is paid to be full of himself and Imus, who is on in the middle of the night.
Clark Howard is OK to hear once in a while, but they have him in the AM and repeat him in the evenings - typical Fisher programming.

So far this new KVI is so lightweight my radio keeps floating off the table! I'm pretty disappointed. Even the morning show is awfully fluffy....I switch off the radio when Scott Carty started talking about Kanye West and some unimportant pop culture "news". If I want that I'll look at the TMZ site or read a check out line tabloid. Only good thing about the new KVI is Clark Howard's syndicated show out Atlanta.
