Seniors are famously un-receptive to change.    Wondering whether Mr. Hedley has had 2nd thoughts about whether this was a good idea, rather than going with a familiar voice such as that of Brian Peroff.    Does Norm Edwards return Tuesday or Wednesday?

Neither had I, however Grilled.Cheese became quite aroused by this man's AM-740 appearances.  When I posted the question yesterday noon the counter stood at 700 and has now passed 1,000.    Don't know what to make of that, do you, Festie?

I haven't "had 2nd thoughts about whether this was a good idea".  Because I never thought it was a good idea.  I thought it was a great idea.  

Not surprisingly, Dale is absolutely right - it's like trying to build "a good bullpen" and finding out that Mariano Rivera can still throw a 92 mph slider for strikes, and would love to come throw the occasional inning for your team. Can't imagine a programmer worth their salt turning down an opportunity like that.

The thing is, Kilgore, your opening sentence above is incredibly relevant for what Zoomer Radio was until two summers ago; since then, most online comments about us appear to be from people who obviously haven't listened in a very, very long time.

Tarzan Dan is a radio pro...and a great communicator.  I listened as often as possible while he filled in.  And if AM740 management place him somewhere else in future, I'll listen there as well.  

Plus, Dan is a AWESOME photographer.  Nothing to do with radio but he is simply a highly talented man in several areas.  

Is moving Jane Brown from the newsdesk to become Tarzan Dan's sidekick still under consideration?
