So, I have eluded to this a few times on social networking, but wanted to make it official. I’m getting into the radio business! The project is an all Kansas City Sports Station through a service called Our City Radio. Our City Radio is just getting off the ground, but the […]
Kansas City woke up this morning a little less funny and a little more sporty. This morning at midnight, Funny 102.5 went silent and Kansas City’s third sports talk station began.
102.5 The Fan is the original name of KC’s new CBS Sports Affiliate.
CBS Sports launched 24 hours earlier.
The CBS Sports network […]
Earlier in the week, a twitter observer noticed this posting on the Entercom website announcing the opening for a new on-air personality.
This, coupled with Nick Wright’s open discussions about his contract negotiations on his show piqued my interest.
So I made a few phone calls to industry insiders that confirmed the following:

It’s been a full week since the “big” changes in the Kansas City Sports Radio landscape as 610 Sports dropped nationally syndicated Jim Rome and doubled the air time for the Danny Parkins show while adding a full-time co-host in Carrington Harrison.
The obvious winners in this are Parkins and Harrison even though their first […]
A new phase in the Kansas City Sports Talk #RadioWars begins Thursday, March 15 as 610 Sports goes toe-to-toe with Sports Radio 810 as both go “live and local” from 6am until 6pm.
The move, as predicted in this blog several weeks ago, pits six local sports talk shows against each other […]
March 14, 2012…
Hey Jim… come on in. Have a seat. Please close the door.
Well, Jim. You’ve been in Kansas City for a long time. We remember the tour stops. Remember when you started decades ago on Hot Talk 1510? Then over to 810, then 610? Man. Those were the days, right? […]
The worst kept secret in Kansas City Sports Talk now has a due date – it’s March 19th, 2012.
The details are still being kept under wraps, but something is definitely happening with the 610 Sports lineup on March 19. It’ll be graduation day for at least one B-list 610 staffer and may likely include […]
This weekend marks our thirteenth show. So rather than doing it under a ladder, or co-hosting with a black cat, we’re pressing our luck in a more traditional manner… by stirring up some shit.
We had the King of stirring up shit in Kansas City, 610 Sports afternoon talk show host, Nick Wright.

Earlier today, I wrote about how to take out what is, arguably, best Sports Talk show in Kansas City, The Program with Soren Petro.
One suggestion I failed to make at that point was maybe it’s time to have a chick on the air here in the KC Sports Talk environment.
Is it […]
It’s no secret that 610 Sports is looking for a way to get ahead of Sports Radio 810. 610 has one key advantage coming up, they are the Flagship of the Royals Radio Network and carry all the games. Last year, this propelled them ahead of 810 in the ratings for the first time […]
