    Anyone tuning into WCCO radio since John Williams came back?
    He’s my favorite radio host. Easy listening and informative. Truly reminds me of a good neighbor!

    Michkey (Sp?) is on in the evening.

    The only one I don’t really care for is the 3-6 hour with Michelle and I’m not even going to try to spell her last name.

    On the other hand KSTP has always annoyed me with their power cut back at 7 pm. Even if I wanted to listen to the Twins, I couldn’t most of the time after 7.

    Maybe some of you sports guys like 1500 better than before, but I don’t go to the right side of the dial anymore.

    One good decision I’ve heard is Bear Facts and Fish Tales is coming back. I don’t get a chance to listen to it (power drop at 7 pm) but at least it’s there if I could.

    Am I alone? Did 1500 take a dive or is it just my listening habits?

    They don’t have control over that, so you shouldn’t be annoyed with them. You should be annoyed with the FCC.

    I like the new 1500 format. Souchueray and Reusse have always been a favorite of mine. Garage Logic is always entertaining. I like ESPN’s Mike and Mike in the morning.

    I listened to 1500 pretty much all of time prior to the change, now I would guess it’s less than 1/2 hour a day on the way home from work for Garage Logic (which, sadly, has much less air time than it used to). I have tuned into 830 for the first time in years because of the changes to 1500, now I pretty much just talk to myself and yell at other drivers more.

    THAT’s what I’m talking about!

    I’m back to the good neighbor also. I sent a note to 1500 indicating that I listened to the TWINS and Soucheray only. I used to be dialed in to 1500 day and night (when I couldn’t sleep) and listened to Bell and Noury.

    Sunday’s 7 to 9 PM
