    The little I listen to the radio, I’ve found myself programing ‘cco the other day.

    I think you could argue that it hasn’t been decent since Don Vogel died. I started listening to KSTP in high school, Vogel’s show with Mischke was the best this town ever had during drive time.

    Vogel – “New Dork, New Dork”

    Classic Vogel

    I was disappointed when they cancelled Rosenbaum and O’Connell, their show was balanced, informative, and funny at times.

    I enjoy Soucheray and Rookie, but once again they are messing with their show.

    The last straw was when they canned Mishcke. As a guy who named his dogs (Mischke and Lewis “Lou”) after KSTP personalities I used to consider myself more than a fan. At least Mischke still has his podcasts on the City Pages site.

    That station is horrible right now. Last time ESPN had a station in town it didn’t last very long….hopefully that ends up being the case again.

    I do some ‘CCO also. Tafoya I really like. Even from her days at KFAN I thought she was good. Still can’t do Chad Hartman. And nothing gets me to turn the dial faster then Mike “I wannabe” Max. Well, maybe Eric Nelson is a close second to Max.

    Thompson, Star, all the Sunday mornings I can usually do.

    I tuned in ‘CCO yesterday. What happened to Boone and Ericcson? How about Joyce Lamont’s recipes? Where’s Howard Viken these days?

    While we’re at it, I really miss listening to Herb Carneal and Halsey Hall.

    Ahh, the good old days.

    Dan Larson, I agree with your comments 100%. It’s sad to watch, oh, I mean listen to.

    Rootski – What about the late great Steve Cannon. Cannon was second only to Don Vogel for pure entertainment on the radio.

    Got Sirius in my last truck, they can play what ever they want now, they have eliminated almost everything I wanted to hear,
    They don’t seem to be headed in a good direction..

    Why is it then that I feel old, not experienced.

    Hey, if you want Joyce Lamont recipes, check out her cookbook. I wrote it with her: Joyce Lamont’s Favorite Minnesota Recipes and Radio Memories. You can get it at Amazon.com. Lots of recipes, memories, and pictures of the old days at WCCO.
