“No mention of the Frosty, Heidi and Frank or Bonnaduce shows?”

why would ANYONE mention Bonaduce? He was an example if the shows KLSX had on that were awful. Leykis, Carolla and FH&F were the only reasons KLSX lasted as long as it did. Bonnaduce was just terrible.

The new station may come up with a Ryan Seacrest-esque big name for their morning show soon. Who knows. Regardless, a sad day in L.A. for many.

Adam going off air does kinda suck. Can’t say I’ve listened more than a couple days since I picked up Sirius though.
