Giovanni I think you should call in tomorrow. They'll let you on, I'm sure.

Yes, Giovanni, they're worried about you.

It didn't feel right going in without you, but there was no time for ... you know. Sigh.

Plus you can ask Adam yourself about lighting a fart on the air. Maybe they'll post video on the website!

Have Adam light the fart that sets alight the giant, gasoline covered pile of TACS memorabilia, decorations, and advertisements left from the show.

It'd make a great farewell video.

Mary, that was really sweet this morning. I'm so happy you called.

The reason I sat on this information for DAYS was because there was NO mention of it anywhere. Anywhere. Not even a little snipit here, or a rumor there. I figured the first day of their last week would be appropriate to "go" with it - and screw CBS Radio and their "plan" of talking about it on Thursday.

Again, many kudos for those that called in and addressed this with Adam - and started the wildfire. Nicely played.

Jack Silver, here's to hoping your next stop is at a ranchero station scraping the gum off the floors you creepy hack.

In that case, Oh Wise Olde One, do you have any insight into what the fate of the show is? I notice you have changed the title of the thread to "the show's cancelled". Is that a fact, or is that just you jumping the gun and working off the likely outcome here?

From the KLSX wikipedia entry:

"KLSX is expected to drop talk format on Friday, February 20, 2009 and start a contemporary hits radio format aimed at younger listeners, taking the 'AMP' format from its HD-2 channel, which airs popular songs by popular artists such as The Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, Jordin Sparks, Rihanna, T.I., and others. The Adam Carolla Show's last day is Friday and affiliates of the program were notified on Tuesday, February 17 that the Aceman would be leaving, as well."

Pretty funny slip.

Edit: Kudos to 1780's for the board name change.

Well it's good to know that they're being replaced with someone intelligent that people who don't breath out of their mouth will enjoy.

This just made Bonaduce's ego like 70 times bigger...

What part of a shift in corporate strategy can Bonaduce take credit for?

That said, as stated in a prior page, it is a cruel, cruel world that allows Bonaduce to have a pulpit while Adam has...???

HE doesn't realize that though...

He'll be bragging for the next 15 years about how the Adam Carolla Show tanked after he left...

Tom Leykis among KLSX hosts going off air
The station will switch to a Top 40 music format called 'AMP RADIO.'
By GARY LYCAN
Special to the Register


Talk KLSX/97.1 FM will flip to a new Top 40 format called "AMP RADIO" at 5 p.m. Friday, CBS announced Wednesday.

Current talk show hosts Adam Carolla, the team of Frosty, Heidi & Frank, and Tom Leykis will do their final shows live Friday, with Leykis tossing the switch at 5 p.m. to "AMP RADIO," which will begin with 10,000 songs in a row with limited commercial interruption "or about 28 days of just full-on music," according to Dan Weiner, senior vice president and market manager for CBS radio in Los Angeles.

The format, described as playing "all the hits," will also be online at www.ampradio.com. Artists will include Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé, Rihanna, T.I., Kanye West, Usher, Britney, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, and Katy Perry, among others.

Running "AMP RADIO" will be Kevin Weatherly, who also programs KROQ-FM and JACK-FM.

"Complementing the station will be an array of events and concerts, an extensive online destination with blogs, music videos, widgets, photo galleries, celebrity gossip reports, in-depth artist pages, an embeddable and multifunctional streaming player, and a platform to create artist-centric radio stations," the CBS announcement said.

While CBS' JACK and KROQ stations target male listeners, "AMP RADIO" will target women 18-49. Competitors would be KIIS-FM, KOST-FM and KBIG-FM (104.3MYfm).

While Carolla, Leykis, Heidi-Frosty-Frank are leaving CBS, there was no immediate word on their future plans. A CBS spokeswoman declined to comment on contracts other than to say "they are all different."

No word yet on who will be part of the new lineup after the first 28 days. The format has been in test mode on JACK-FM's HD2 channel. Current KLSX Programming Director Jack Silver is leaving CBS, a company spokeswoman said.
