( updated april 23, 2007)
One after the other they’re leaving. I’m talking about my favourite radio people. The latest being CHUM-FM’s Meg Tucker. She’s heading off to Calgary at their sister station Energy(wish i could recall the name but in my defense I work midnights now so my brain’s on strike but when I remember I’ll tell you the station—WHEW!).
Anyways, it’s funny how you become attached to certain radio people as if they’re family or very good friends and though you wish them the best of success you also wish they wouldn’t go.
***
UPDATE/CORRECTION: SATURDAY MARCH 24: The radio station Meg Tucker is going to is 101.5 in Calgary and she’ll be on mornings.
***
Not having enough time to list all of them and not enough time to link to all their sites or blogs here’s a brief list of some(and this is a very small list)of some of my favourite radio people). When I get a chance I will link to the person’s site or blog or whastever other project they have–to be isted on a separate page.
