The hemorrhaging continues at Sirius XM as more names of the departing keep rolling in: In addition to everyone we named yesterday, other exits include Marlin Taylor, PD of gospel channel Enlighten and '40s on 4; '50s on 5 PD Ken Smith and MD Matt the Cat; '60s on 6 PD Pat Clarke; Jessie Scott, PD of X-Country; country channel America PD Ray Knight, MD John Welch and show coordinator "Country Dan" Dixon; Lisa Lisa, PD of rhythmic channel the City; B.K. Kirkland, PD of R&B oldies channel the Groove; and PD Bill Evans, MD Brian Chamberlain and jock Cathy Carter from triple A channel XM Café.
Senior PD Kurt Gilchrist, who is one of the longest-tenured employees at XM, where he was running the Decades channels, has a long resume that includes stops at KHMX/Houston and KLTO/El Paso -- he can be offered a new gig at kgilchrist4@cox.net or on the cell at 703-568-3835.
