    On another note I actually enjoy Scott Prather’s show. Was good to hear Dr. Maggard on there this morning hyping up the game for tomorrow
    Local sports radio sucks these days. Had to stop listening. It's a shame

    I have been vocal about this in previous posts. I listen to Scott, Foote, and Bandit on Sundays. Local radio in this area, during a time when UL needs coverage more than ever, is simply falling short. The "flagship" of UL athletics is down to very little local programming, which means even less UL coverage. I hope Learfield takes Townsquare to task and is methodical in their search for the next "flagship" after the current deal expires in 2023.

    There were some good, interesting points brought up and questions answered. I wish Scott would just ask the questions without making a speech.

    Go try to buy a clock radio with an alarm. They may be out there but they are few and far between. If you like the one you got you better keep it.
    In the case of ESPN Lafayette, it started as a slow death and has turned into a free fall. Sad part is their FM signal starts breaking up on Ambassador near the bridge.

    The rise of the Cajun podcasts is only happening because radio has failed in quantity and quality of Cajun coverage.

    No doubt. Poor mainstream business decisions have opened a door.

    I am pleasantly surprised at the initial level of quality in the various Ragin' Cajuns podcasts.

    Actually correct on all points. Still a sports station should be clear to past Opelousas, New Iberia, Crowley, Abbeville, and Henderson

    If I recall correctly the whole of Town Square is in trouble. ESPN 1420 was doing well individually.

    The latest moves on ESPN 14.20 are indicative of what caused the overall problems at TowSquare.

    The only problem there is casual fans have no clue about pod casts.
