I think we're on Week 3 of Reshmi being missing. On Monday Deb Hutton was hosting and said she would be there for the remainder of the week.  John Tory just mentioned he would be doing a couple of afternoons next week.  I presume he'll be doing The Rush.

In the beginning of her disappearance it was announced that she was at home recovering from a bug of some sort.

This has all the earmarks of a Scott McArthur or a Jim Richards although the fill-in hosts are still saying they are sitting in for Reshmi.

They'll find Jimmy Hoffa before Ryan Doyle ever shows up.
 

That made me howl with laughter!

I guess that youtube betting gig didn't work out.

The question to ask about Jim Richards is --if he's ever really there even when he is?

Hopefully not.
 

back on monday as per today's opening. 

MIA still........

No matter what's wrong with Ms. Nair, it's apparent she's still with the station. For one thing, her substitute host always says "in for Reshmi Nair." And for another, they're still playing that real estate commercial featuring her voice and recommendation. Whatever's going on, it seems they expect her back. 

I'm not sure what the deal is with 1010's afternoon shift, but it's definitely had a pretty checkered history. First it was Ryan Doyle who mysteriously disappeared a number of years ago. Then Scott MacArthur vanished. And now Reshmi Nair. It's become like the Bermuda Triangle - they sail in, but they don't sail on. 

I heard Adwoa back on this morning. No mention as to where she has been.

Maybe she's involved in on-going contract negotiations.  For them to announce she would be back today and then have a no-show tells me something fell through over the weekend.  If I recall, Scott fell off the face of the earth around the same time of the year that she did and they started together. OR, she may be having health issues which I hope is not the case.  Not a fan but I certainly wouldn't wish her ill.  I suspect John Tory may find a permanent home on The Rush. 

I strongly suspect the latter - a health issue. It's the same thing that apparently happened to Jim Richards, who, as many remember, was off the air for so long, people were openly saying he was fired. But then months later, he suddenly returned. That was some kind of mental health issue if I recall. Total speculation but could the same thing be happening to Nair? 

If so, what's going on at the station that there are so many absences for that reason?  (Same thing happened to Scott MacArthur.) Kind of ironic, with "Let's Talk Day"  on the horizon January 24th. 

I don't miss her but it was kind of fun listening to her after she changed her outlook, or when someone told her to change her outlook.  It was a complete 180.  But you could always tell when she was trying to stop her head from exploding. 
 

Curious statement from John Moore introducing Deb Hutton on this morning's "Moore in the Morning":

"...who's been hosting the afternoon show for a good long time and for a good long time to come, apparently, it would seem."


So, sounds like odds are that Nair might not return this coming Monday, anyway.

Ooooh that would suck. Hutton is risible.
 

Nair... Hutton... Tory... None are listenable.  Tory may be the worst of the bunch, and that's saying something.
