      …sorry to burst your bubble, but…it doesn’t work that way…can’t happen… Terrestrial Radio can’t compete with _Satellite Radio_ (which the FCC doesn’t have jurisdiction over) & streaming services like _Spotify_ & _Pandora…_ the radio stations which didn’t sell out and go under umbrellas like _I ❤️ Radio_ are dying stars heading for black holes…

      I wasn’t talking about Podcasts at all… but I agree with what you’re saying… 2022 is a different world from 2002…and as much as I’d like to give SmartPhones a lot of credit for that…I remember (for example) when 9/11 happened in 2001. I was a High School Junior at the time, and I didn’t go to school that day & I got a call from my girlfriend on my Handspring Visor Prism with a Cellular Phone Module plugged into it’s _Springboard Expansion Slot_ that was a Smart Phone…in 2001…

    From the news I heard today WAAF is no more. When you think about it it really isn't a surprise, tho it is very sad. But please tell me, it can't be true! Did they really sell out the rock of Boston for a Christian station, a damn Christian station. That's as messed up is it gets.

    So many memories growing up listening to the Hillman Morning Show. I’ve been listening since 1993 all through my high school years till I graduated in 97. Then after that while working my first job. The days of Real Rock TV on late nights. Before satellite radio took over. WAAF carried me through some of glory days of my younger years. The days of the walk and rock for change. The day Kevin Barbare was let go and Chris Engle left is when it started all coming to an end.
    The good ole days when The Late Rocko was on at night, and The Ozone ( John Osterland ) It’s been a great ride AAF. All good things come to an end

    I miss the Hill Man Morning Show. It was like waking up and going to work in the company of four of your best pals. I hate to say it, but the WEEI show just isn't the same. But, somebody thought that was a better idea apparently. LB YOU'RE THE BERRIES KID

    • @n3lee
      @n3lee 4 года назад +3

      I agree wholeheartedly. New hill show sucks, too much sports - could give a shit less about that.... used to tune it out at WAAF, but that was only 4-5 minutes out of every hour. I feel bad that I didn't even stay tuned in long enough to hear that LB quit.... Podcasts gain another soul, and live radio has tuned out. Least the shit running at night is somewhat entertaining.

    Just watched the Bar Rescue episode "Hogtied Ham's", from 2011. LB left the show prematurely as well. I wonder if he's dealing with CTE or other post concussion symptoms. I hope he's doing well now that he's out of the entertainment business. Sad to so many see athletes (enforcers especially) have to deal with mental health issues later in life. Take it easy LB; enjoy life and family.

    All the fun rock history BETWEEN BCN and AAF , now gone No more morning shoed that capture the rebellious nature of Boston and the whole way we fit into the history of rock
    Now it’s just a bland endless field of corporate shit. No personality , these kinds of shows used to connect is all
    Make you feel like we were part of something bigger
    This show and BCN got me through good and bad times
    Wish there was at least an online version
    Miss you guys and gals
