Except for saturday morning, when Roe Conn
was honing his skills with a morning show.
He had been producing for Stacy Taylor
during the week. He started as a producer
for Don Vogel on all talk WMAQ.
I still remember the saturday show when he
and an out of work Garry Meir (sound familiar) did their initial 'experiment' together. I guess someone thought that it worked.
: I think the locality of 'LS first started going downhill when Jay left in the fall of '96 and they dragged their heels replacing him while running Master Laura in the 10-2 timeslot. After some months Mike Malloy came on board, but the damage was done and eventually evenings permanently became off the bird.
: Weekends were always syndicated stuff aside from Jake Hartford and Nate Clay.
