In Reply to: Eddie & JoBo's new job: The semi update posted by Roy on February 28, 2010 at 16:04:18:
: On Friday, after word spread far & wide thanks to this very message board, Eddie V posted the following on his Facebook page:
: "What a day! Call-waiting going off 12 times talking to Jobo, my agent, radio stations, columnists, Harry Caray's people! Nice to be boiling!"
: When somebody then asked when he would say which station it is, Volkman said:
: "The radio station we'll be on says THEY want to make the announcement, so we have to abide by them. If I say anything before that, it might not happen, & (I'm) not taking any chances...sorry!"
: When asked if somebody's son could intern with them on the new show, Eddie said:
: "...nothing is locked in yet, but we ARE gonna need some help when we get our next gig..."
: Clearly there is not a 100% deal. This may be a fill-in or try-out deal that is coming in March, not a full-time hire. Most of all, neither Eddie or JoBo will say anything in advance. You will just have to wait until a certain radio station is ready to make an announcement. It may be in a week or two, but it may be many months from now, too.
It won't be that long. Look for an announcement likely by Thursday end of business.
