RADIO WARS: Jason Myrtetus and Harry Mayes Will Be The New 97.5 Midday Show

Good thing 97.5 didn’t wait until the last possible moment before the start of football season to announce their lineup changes. This morning they named Bob Cooney their new morning show co-host. And this afternoon they announced that the new Midday show will be Jason Myrtetus and Harry Mayes, who will be joined on Mondays by Seth Joyner, oh he of threatening me with LeSean McCoy fame.
I’ve been predicting this since June – I DON’T KNOW WHY YOU’D READ ANY OTHER SITE – as Myrtetus and Mayes did well when they filled in for Mike Missanelli during his prolonged absence earlier this year. They put on a good show. They’ll talk hockey! Indeed the immediate feedback was positive:
97.5 now has its lineup in place. It will bring some stability to the station after what feels like a year of uncertainty in the mornings and several months of it in Middays. Of course… the station still doesn’t have a program director. But I’m not sure these announcements would’ve been any different if they did.
The generals are in place. The tanks are fueled. We march on. SEND THE BAND:
