They are announcing this coming Monday or starting this coming Monday?
Any idea who? I have heard Samantha Stevens would be the new full-time morning host but I am not sure now.

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

She'd be a good pick because circumstance at Q/Corus pretty much guarantees that the host needs to be a woman and an internal hire. But, no.

Didn't Tucker at one point work for FM96? He would be familiar to a degree of the format. Also if they did move to Q107 then would the Fresh London morning show do energy's morning show also?

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

Toronto Mike is reporting that - while he's not sure if there's a third person also being added - the two original Derringer sidekicks will be back after their long layoff, when the announcement is made on Monday.

John Garbutt and Ryan Parker Return to Mornings on Q107

Hmmm, it all makes sense now...  Maura will be joining Q107 for Maura, John and Ryan in the morning.  I wonder who will replace her as Tucker's co-host?

Almost there!

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

So if Tucker and Maura are "splitting" and Maura goes to Q my guess is she takes middays and Joanne Wilder goes to mornings. Then on Energy I could see Jeunesse when she comes back from maternity leave go to mornings. Or she takes her drive show back and Carla I think her name is moves to mornings

Tucker and Maura will still be working together.

So 4 people for the new Q107 morning show?  Tucker, Maura, John and Ryan?  That's a pretty tall headcount even for a morning show in this day and age.

Or perhaps, Q107 will syndicate Tucker & Maura for mornings and their Energy 95.3 show would be moved to afternoon drive, same as what they are doing with Fresh 103.1 in London.

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

Maura and Tucker - one show (according to Toronto Mike):

https://www.torontomike.com/2023/01/tucker-and-maura-new-edge-102-morning-show/

Ryan and Garbutt (and maybe a third, if you follow some socials) - another show:

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

Wow, did not know that 102.1 The Edge was also involved which makes this a big switcheroo.  I guess they had to maintain John and Ryan at Q to avoid alienating listeners too much but also had to add Shawna as the new female co-host to replace John Derringer. 

102.1 The Edge has been struggling in the ratings for a few years now so it makes sense that they would move Tucker and Maura's morning show over there to try and prop them up, but I'm unsure how well they will perform with a non-CHR format.

I guess the big question now is what happens with mornings at Energy 95.3 (and also PM drive at 103.1 Fresh Radio London)

No way... Scott & Kat?!?  That is some big switcheroo!  Will they do both Energy and the Beat at the same time, or is something else changing in Kitchener as well?  This brings them back in the GTA radio market at the worst possible time for Z103.5 with Rick the Temp's recent departure.

I have to assume they stay (on) in Kitchener.

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

Lot of changes involving morning shows like: Adam Wylde moved to London to do the morning show at Pure Country 93 after Dave and Rachel departed in June of 2022. Rick Campanelli left Z103.5 and now we got changes at the Corus radio stations in Toronto and Hamilton. I wonder how this will improve the ratings for Energy 95.3, 102.1 The Edge, Q107 and Z103.5.

It is actually TJ Conners that left the Virgin morning show to go to Pure Country in London

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

Actually, Adam's former co-host TJ went to Pure Country.

As for 95.3, how about a morning show on the Hamilton station, from Hamilton! Not one host on the station is in Hamilton.

Actually, TJ Conners is on HTZ FM Niagara (ahem, from Winnipeg). TJ O'Halloran is the one on Pure Country.

Well I don't know. But you seem to up the all the changes, so I'll take your word for it.

It's a terrible market. Out-of-market tuning makes national ad dollars really small relative to the city's size.

I did not know this information either. This coming July 2nd, Marilyn Dennis will start her 38th year as part of the always changing morning drive team at CHUM FM. Only 12 more years to tie Wally.

I listened to the excerpt with Humble talking to Maureen and Jacqui about the behaviour of the two sidekicks during and after Derringer's time doing mornings and don't think it could have been easy to find anyone to take over the morning show. After hearing Maureen Holloway's words I hope like hell whoever takes over the show has their own lawyer go over the offered contract.

"What if it was your wife." indeed.

They took Tucker and Maura off of the Energy 95.3 website. No word on who will be the new morning show host yet. They are still on the Fresh 103.1 website.

Re: Has Anyone Officially Replaced John Derringer On Q107?

The B Team are still on the 102.1 Edge website as the morning show. My radio listening tomorrow morning may be interesting. Tucker & Maura announced Friday that it was their last show and anyone listening to them should be able to still listen to them at the station they are moving to. However, they could not say what station that would be. That announcement is to come this week.
