good for him. i don't know his talent, but good luck to him. I'm more concerned about CHTZ in general. It used to be my go-to station. After they turfed KK, it was all down hill

HTZ-FM and KK's current radio home Giant-FM share the same market. In ratings from Fall 2015 to Fall 2016 Giant went up from 9.1 to 9.3 while HTZ went down from 8.8 to 5.6. Their local audience numbers are about equal. HTZ does have a much further reach and their total audience is about 2.5 times that of Giant.
Those numbers might explain why HTZ is currently looking for a PD.

He's back. TJ is now evenings 7-11 on HTZ. On Twitter, his location still says WInnipeg, not sure if he's moved back or beaming in (like Ashleigh).

He's hosting from Winnipeg where he's a full-time real estate agent.

Wow...pretty sad when all this radio work is just secondary income, and Mr. Connors has a full time job as a real estate agent. Seems like being on air is becoming just a hobby even in medium and larger markets.
