Groundhog Day: The Lost Radio Tapes

The burning question so many of us have wondered: what if we could hear more of that morning radio show that popped up on Bill Murray's radio in the movie Groundhog Day?

Because of the nature of the movie plot, only a small portion of the movie's "show" is ever heard including the repetitive playing of "I've Got You Babe" and two goofy morning deejays warning, "It's cold out there today!".

Masters of None is a podcast described as "former radio guys Mike, Art & Jay, who debate and answer mankind's most important questions each week." This week, they have used what little of the Groundhog Day movie radio show the world knew of to create a 30 minute version of what they think it might have sounded like - had you had to opportunity to hear more of it.

I found the concept clever and amusing.

Listen to Groundhog Day, the Lost Radio Tapes here at podcasts.gunaxin.com.

Making it in Music: AM and FM Airplay vs. Broadband

Today, the power of both record labels and radio stations has been partly diminished by the global stage the Internet affords musicians. Music labels once controlled the distribution and traditional radio stations provided the main artery that lubricating the distribution lines. Well, that's not the case anymore. Read More.

Donnie Simpson Does Last Radio Show on WPGC-FM

Longtime D.C. radio personality, Donnie Simpson, did his last show on WPGC-FM Friday morning. ABC 7 in Washington reported: "It was a morning full of emotion from his fans, friends and family...The phone lines were also buzzing with calls from Toni Braxton, Blair Underwood and Tavis Smiley." (Screenshot: www.wpgc.com)

According to Sabrina S. at gather.com, "He is 55 years old now and the station says that his taste in music is the reason for the ratings to be down the toilet. The station is apparently looking for someone with more creativity that can attract a younger audience."

ABC 7 has a video report on Simpson's last show which you can view at this page at www.wjla.com.

D.C. Radio Icon Donnie Simpson to Exit WPGC-FM

Longtime Washington, D.C. radio personality, Donnie Simpson, will reportedly do his last show on WPGC-FM this Friday, January 29. (Screenshot: www.wpgc.com)

"Due to declining ratings, and "internal friction between Simpson and WPGC's management," Simpson decided to break his contract and separate himself from the WPGC," according to Mike Andrews in the Baltimore Hip-Hop Music Examiner.

Simpson was the first urban-formatted radio personality to earn over 1 Million dollars-a-year without being syndicated.

Would Howard Stern Go Back to Clear Channel Radio?

There's a conversation bubbling up in the media about the possibility that Clear Channel Radio might be interested in talking to Howard Stern. Stern will be clear of his current SIRIUS XM Radio contract at the end of this year. (Howard Stern, Photo: SIRIUS Satellite Radio)

David Hinckley at nydailynews.com writes, "Clear Channel...said Monday it would be interested in talking with Stern, the long-time poster boy for edgy radio content."

Of course, Stern would have to take a leap in self-control when it comes to his language and content since his current gig on Satellite Radio affords him the ability to say anything he likes without regard to F.C.C. rules or regulations. Going back to Clear Channel and terrestrial radio (AM/FM) would mean Stern would once again be subject to regulations and potential fines over offensive or indecent material.

Stern's program aired on several Clear Channel stations until it was yanked in February, 2004. Earlier that year, Stern's behavior got Clear Channel Radio fined $495,000 for indecency.

Pockets of Progressive Talk Radio Still ‘Flourish’

Brian Stelter writes in The New York Times that, "...pockets of progressive talk are flourishing on the radio dial despite Air America's misfortunes."

Stelter goes on to say: "Air America's biggest names have been more successful after leaving the network. Rachel Maddow has a prime-time show on MSNBC, and Al Franken, the former comedian most closely associated with Air America, is a senator from Minnesota."

In the article Michael Harrison, editor of Talkers Magazine, says Air America Media's problem was not knowing, "...whether they were a political campaign or a broadcasting company."

Radio Deejay Plays ‘Jump’ for Bridge Jumper

Sometimes, radio people are known for their shocking or tasteless actions. After all, it is a ratings-driven business where being the center-of-attention can usually only be helpful. (Right: Steve Penk, 96.2 FM, Screenshot: www.therevolution962.com)

UK deejay, Steve Penk, the morning guy from 96.2FM The Revolution, is being criticized for answering several requests for the song "Jump" by Van Halen "...while police were trying to talk down a suicidal woman on a motorway bridge," reports The Sun.

"Poor taste" said one representative from a mental health charity; Lack of compassion" said some good Samaritans; "Irresponsible" another listener chimed in.

As for Penk himself? "I don't regret playing it for a minute."

96.2 The Revolution comes out of North East Manchester, England. You can listen live at www.therevolution962.com

‘Internet’ Radio Will Eventually Become Just ‘Radio’

One day soon, the distinction between "Internet" radio, "traditional radio", "satellite radio", etc. will blur to the point where people will just have and use "radio" again. We won't need another adjective to describe what kind of "radio" it is because it won't matter. The technology will become so seamless we will stop thinking about the process and just enjoy the results.

We are closer.

"Thanks to the popularity of the iPhone and other smartphones, listenership has quadrupled since 2008 at Pandora, the free online radio service he founded," writes Jefferson Graham at USA TODAY.

But, what's really news is Ford will feature a Pandora app in the company's Sync system, Sony is putting Pandora into its new web clock radio, Dash, and Samsung along with other TV makers will be including Pandora in upcoming TVs.

Graham writes, "After years of struggle to find an audience, Internet radio is finally coming of age as it expands to cellphones, TVs and other devices."
