Jesus, it was bad enough when the Ticket stream was airing ads for some Christian medical "insurance," which isn't really insurance but a well-known and -documented scam.  Shit, John Oliver even had a segment about these outfits.  They're a complete fraud aimed at the most vulnerable.  But Cumulus still happily took their money.

But now they're airing ads for the Alliance Defending Freedom, which is a fucking hate group.

Fuck that shit--I'm about ready to turn off that stream.

And I did. Just because it's "the way it is" doesn't mean it's not disappointing when the time comes to accept that the business is the business. The Ticket is an incredible thing. There's a reas

Still going with that bit? What if I gave you a shoutout from my verified (cue Vivaldi) Twitter account?

Back when Julie was around they had her reading ads for some crypto scam shit too. That was obviously a scam and they didn't give a fuck. 

Why anyone would trust any advertising on the ticket is incomprehensible.

Again, still just a morning show destroying. And look at the little Sweet Spot being #1 again. Monty still needs a more active role.

From Peter Welpton on Reddit

2023 was pretty, pretty good - (aka: Dec Ratings)

renderTimingPixel.png
America's Favorite Radio Station™ has now concluded a successful 2023 - 12 consecutive months at #1 M25-54.

Included in this run is:

  • The Musers #1, the whole year, w/ a staggering average 12.8 share

  • The Hardline #1, 12 straight months, w/ an average 10.9 share

  • Both The Invasion and Sweet Spot debut in August and sustain top three rankings, the latter holding #1 for the last two months - and both with higher ranking and shares than this time a year ago.

  • The station held an unbelievably lengthy spell at #1 6+ (total market), unusual for a sports talk format, split-frequency (neither that even really covers the entire metro).

You could continue to run a ridiculous list of these achievements, but that would give most anyone tired-head. Basically, the year 2023 has been historic for what was already a historic radio station.

It should not go unnoticed it accomplished this during The Fan's (iirc) best-ever ratings year (and they did have a great year, congrats to them).

An appreciated unexpected new chapter of what was already radio's most unique success story.

Happy New Year P1's.

Which makes sense, because they have been giving very low effort on the promotion side of things for the last couple of months really. Not much sense of urgency to grow the subscriber base whatsoever.

i know they mentioned plans of a 2 week free subscription.  not sure when that is planned.  hopefully that drives some numbers up.

and for $690, you can host the Dumb Zone at your house or place of business.  gotta raise some revenue.

Bob is such a douche bag

 

Bob went to the Tucker Carlson school of "Just Asking Questions".  He knows it and then acts all surprised when people call him out on it and says shit like "Maybe I should just leave this place". It's fucking pathetic.  This place would chew him up and spit him out for that shit in 15 minutes tops.

I don’t keep up with Bob. What point is he trying to make?

Bob posted a few days back that Quinn wouldn’t be playing in the NFL or at Texas next season and apparently he thinks Cedric Golden’s clickbait article is validation of his dumb take.

Funniest part was corby talked about it and said it was nothing but click bait with no sources,  no interviews,  nothing. Just an opinion piece. And when he first started talking about it you could tell Bob was ready to jump on until corby ripped the story.
