That would be so awesome! My radio listening enjoyment has never been the same since Garry left. It's been wonderful to hear him off and on for fill-ins, but the guy totally rules (in my world), when he has his own regular time slot. I really hope this comes true. This is some of the best news I've heard in a long time, and it really took me by surprise, because I thought Garry was done with radio.

Another overpaid unimportant person being dug up. No new talent anywhere? Is this the best WGN can do?

It's really sad that Garry had to copy Brandmeier's idea with a live broadcast.

Now get Steve to join Garry. Should be fairly easy and cheap to accomplish.

Will the annoying Leslie Keiling join him...is this report even accurate that he will be on WGN?

Usually- contracts not being re-upped- are not announced this far in advance...wtf?

Have a good air shift Roe!

The afternoon drive has not been the same since Bill Berg left WGN.

Roe Conn is a cheap imitation of Don Vogel, and never should have been on the air.

Garry Meier would bring his faithful followers back to WGN.

All his faithful listeners are over 54 years old. Many of those are over 64. No ad dollars.

I disagree. There’s a market for the 50+ crowd. They have the most dispensable income. And, gone are the days of the big bucks ad buys. Now, salespeople need to sell direct if they want a chance at making $$$.

Disagree? Proof?

Proof of what? That someone disagrees?

In reply to you questions. It is OK to disagree. It is another thing to disagree and state crap as facts. That is what the poster did. He got called out.

I disagree.

I agree with the poster that asked you for proof why you disagree. It goes against reality. if things in advertising and media have changed, please enlighten us.

There’s a market for the 50+ crowd.

Sure there is. Low ad rates. Take a look at the stations that are aiming 64 year old demos.

They have the most dispensable income.

Dispensable? Perhaps you mean "disposable"?

We now know you are not in advertising or media. It is a proven fact consulting research and sales point data, 50+ crowd is planning retirement at a time with almost no savings. They are not buying cars, expensive houses and other large ticket items. They are more concerned paying for health care and saving money to retire.

Now, salespeople need to sell direct if they want a chance at making $$$.

Wow, when did national ads, the ones that make the big $$$ go away? Yeah the big bucks are direct sales to mobile dental units, retirement homes or the local strip club.

Are we on the same domain?

Garry Meier, give me a break. He tried to make it on his own and flopped big time. Here is an idea, bring back Clark Weber. Oh wait, you can’t. He is dead!
