He hasn't been on the radio yesterday or today. The App has a gap in programming from 3:00 to 6:00. He did do post game after the ULM game if I remember correctly.

Vacation, illness, family issue, or canned? I wouldn't believe he was fired, some other reason
He and Lynn are both gone.
And I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the last couple of radio broadcasts have been on 96.5, and not 103.3.
Wondering if town Square is going to take 103.3 off the air?
On a very personal note,_____ town Square and Scripps
Well, Dave is off the website.

Well that sucks..
He was the only reason that I still tuned into that station. Now I am really done. There really is no more Cajun Content if he leaves. He would talk Cajuns at least some in his show. By tuned in I meant I would listen on the app to his show.
I saw his Sun Belt podcast earlier, but have been unable to really check on much else.

I wondered that too. I like Dave and have been listening to his shows. Especially Locked on SunBelt. If it’s over, then I feel awful for him. He just got back here a few months ago and actually brought some hope for local radio.
I agree. Our local sports radio coverage has fallen off a cliffQuote:

Like “possibly a snowy Mardi Gras”. The worst clickbait I’ve seen in months.Quote:

Well... just yesterday KPEL posted an article titled "How many beers does it take for Louisiana to catch a buzz?".Quote:

How far can you hit a driver and then maybe a 7 iron in any direction from Cajun Field? If you hit them okay, then right where your ball is.Quote:

I thought Des was from New Iberia....
107.9 has the game coverage but there is zilch for buzz talk.Quote:

I would suspect radio listeners for UL sports are on the decline just as people attending the game in person is.. LSU having a bigger fan base results in more listeners results in more ad revenue. As Vito Corleone said "it's nothing personal it's just business".
That being said.... terrestrial radio is on life support. It will go the way of C band satellite TV. Satellite TV is on the way out. It's all going to streaming, podcasts or services like Hulu and others.
Well….how many??? LolQuote:

Even though you can.... nobody does. That's the problem, the demand isn't there so nobody will supply.Quote:
