I became aware a few weeks ago that Garry Meier was now on WGN 720 Chicago. So
far only gave a brief listen. Ya heard him there?


Yeah, he started on WGN earlier this year. He's not half bad. And
without a sidekick, he acquits himself pretty well. Not as hilarious
as he was with Roe Conn, but I think the time at WLS allowed him to
free himself of the habits and limitations he developed with Steve
Dahl, and eventually to develop his own on-air persona.

His ratings aren't as good as Spike O'Dell's in that same time
slot, and a lot of the feeling of WGN has changed, but he sounds
like he's having fun.


Yeah, it seems like WGN has indeed changed. For the better, as little as I've really
listened, and I'll have to do some more.
