In case you haven’t already heard, Live 105.3, which has recently picked up recent ticket employees like Ben & Skin, Big Dick Hunter, and maybe a few other smaller names like Kevin Scott, decided to flip the switch and become an all sports station called 105.3 The Fan. Here’s a good explanation of what happened.

Oddly enough, they decided to keep Jagger’s morning show, but those who got the boot are The Russ Martin Show, The Dan O’Malley Show, Tom Leykis, and Big Dick’s Wild Ass Circus. Russ & JD are supposedly going to be paid through 2011 so they won’t compete, Big Dick was recently syndicated by Rick Dees and will be fine somewhere, but the rest are still in limbo.

It was weird when Live 105.3 parted ways with Pugs and Kelly, who jumped over to the Cumulus wagon with 93.3 The Bone, sister station with The Ticket. Only because they were replaced with the sportsy duo from The Ticket, who didn’t have their own show, but did the Mavs post game shows and filled in for staple shows when needed, Ben & Skinny Skin. It was weird then, but makes all the sense in the world now.

And just because we’re in the middle of a big radio station orgy right now, Greggo is still over at ESPN in the evenings. Well, when the Greggo and Choppy show “GameNight” isn’t bumped by other shows that ESPN deem more important. When I am near a radio in the evenings, I try to give ole Greggo a listen, but most of the time it’s some other show.

What’s next? I predict Greggo moving into a spot over at 105.3 The Fan. Would probably be a better move for both sides.

Most of you probably know that Greggo is officially now back on the air over at ESPN.

His show airs Mon-Fri, 103.3 FM, from 7pm to 10pm. His partner in crime is some dude named RJ Choppy. RJ Choppy initially sounds very familiar to a fake Jim Rome at times. He’s a little abrasive and him and Greggo seem to butt heads at time to time, but overall, it’s very easy to listen to. I’ll be posting some clips from the show from time to time, just trying to figure it out first. They actually have this segment called “nine o’clock nugget” or “nugget at nine”, something to that tune. I instantly thought of “Why Today Doesn’t Suck” because Greggo pulls out things like “former Ranger great”, “former Cowboy great” .. and so on.

Anyhow, this is the audio from Greggo on with Galloway kind of promoting his upcoming show. I think it was last week sometime. I can’t help but laugh when I hear Galloway’s intro music because all I think of the grandpa urine bits.
