The show must go on...

As the Brady Russell fans and haters must know by now, Brady is no longer with News-Talk 1480 WHBC for whatever reason.  I'm not happy about the change, but we must move on.  Brady was a treat to work with, and it was great to produce his show.  However, I have to focus my energy on The Jim Albright Show (which will also be fun to listen to, by the way).

For every one that has asked, or wants to ask:  yes, I still talk with Brady.  I've visited with him a couple of times this week, and I've emailed him almost every day.  We are friends, and we will continue to be friends through this mess.

I must say that I'm looking forward to working with Jim Albright everyday.  Jim and I are also friends.  We share many common interests, and have the same point of view on many things.  And I will work just as hard on Jim's show as I did on Brady's.  I will also maintain my blog because I still have things I want to say.  I did remove the link to my blog from the whbc homepage last week because I wasn't sure if I was still going to be updating.  But the response I've received on this blog over the past week tells me that I should keep up with it.  Which means I should add the link to my blog to the whbc homepage again, huh?

I ask you to keep listening in the afternoon.  We'll still have fun.  And I'll make sure Brady knows how much you all care about him.

1 - Hi Don, Just wanted to thank you for letting people know about Brady. I was upset that he is gone, but that is what happens sometimes. I also like Jim Albright as well. I also want to let you know I am glad you are keeping your blog. If and when you talk to Brady tell he is missed. Two more thing, Is there any way to get the e-mail address for Jim. And the weather guy I need to know if I can get his e-mail, because I have a project I am doing for school and need to get some information about weather. Can you please e-mail at my email address. I tried several to just e-mail but it didn't go through so I had to go through here. My email is redbird1@sssnet.com Thanks Don bye redbird1-----Donna (Comment this)

2 - Donna -- Sorry Brady's gone, now can I have his replacement's e-mail address? Classy. Almost as classy as calling a guy while he's on vacation to fire him. (Comment this)

3 - Well I used to listen to WHBC on the ride to work every morning with Fred and Pam, and on the way home at noght with Brady. I will now be switching to Q92 and K105. WHBC has left a sour taste in my mouth with thiss lateset stunt. (Comment this)

4 - I never like to see someone loose their job but Brady's show was hard to listen to. The news and traffic were fine but his commentary didn't interest me. The comic book thing was boring. (Comment this)

6 - This the second time WHBC has done this to Brady. You would think they would learn from the reaction of the first time that he is very well liked and respected by his listeners. No more WHBC or Mix 94.1 for me. Nice gesture to fire a man while on vacation. Real Classy! Boycott these stations, and refuse to sponsor them until Brady is brought back. We miss you Brady! (Comment this)

7 - If it was so hard to listen to, why did you keep listening? Turn the little dial knob! (Comment this)
