Bob Lobel's first day as a DJ

Maureen Carney listened to Bob Lobel's inaugural broadcast as an oldies jock on WODS this morning:

... Karen Blake kept referring to him as the "guest host". They're still playing music and taking calls but that needs to be worked out a little smoother. No sooner does a caller get on the air then they have to go to a commercial break. Lobel seemed (at least to me) a little ill at ease, which is to be expected. It's been 30 years since he's done a daily radio show, and we all know he's not a morning person. ...

Woe-dious

Why did they give themselves those call letters? It's way too easy make the station sound bad, whether it does or not. Was WSUK taken?

Woe, odious. Not exactly positive words there.

Pity poor Emerson, then.

Because you could say "Oh, you think that station's bad? I've heard WERS."

what about WEZE, "Wheeze" ? Is this what you listen to when you can no longer roar ?

My favorite call letters. For real - in Dothan, Alabama.

Lobel on WODS

I enjoyed Lobel as a sportscaster but he was like a fish out of water in WODS. I thought he was rude to Karen Blake. I felt sorry for her. I hope that he doesn't keep the gig.
