Coming Monday.........

There will be changes coming to our afternoon lineup. We'll be broadcasting from 2pm-8pm out at Twin Peaks restaurant on Stassney & I-35.

I can say you're going to hear changes to both Craig Way's show as well as the afternoon show.

The evening will end with the Austin Wranglers Coch's show from 7-8. Their head coach, Ben Bennett, is a really funny guy. He was Steve spurrier's QB at Duke when Spurrier was first coming up.

So, tune in or come out
 
Wow. Can't wait to hear an hour long show about a now-minor league areana football team. Really, really exciting news. Hopefully, they will follow with a coach from a development-league WNBA team.
 
Remember when 1300 hired some awfully fat program director/radio host, broke up a decent afternoon show and a great morning show? Remember when that fat guy teamed up with fellow fat guy Aaron something in that afternoon show? I do. Haven't been to 1300 since and can't imagine going back anytime soon.

PS - sorry to **** on your thread!
 
I'm with Theo. 1300 lost me months ago and it's too late to bring me back. The other station is kicking all kinds of Zone *** these days.
 
I have all ya'll beat.

Being in KC, I was able to log onto the web and listen to the morning and afternoon shows. They always brightened up my day, letting me hear Longhorn news in a Big 8 market.

I am unable to log onto any of the ESPN affiliate webpages at my job. So my only choice is 1300.

With the self destruction of 1300 I am literally going cold turkey rather than listen to the blather that 1300 has put on the radio/internet.

Bucky's show is literally so painful you would think someone was squeezing his nuts aggy-style while on the air.

And Craig Way is good for broadcast only, his 90 minute circular-logic storyline doesnt work unless hes flat out talking Longhorn football only.

So yeah, I would rather not even get a smidge of Longhorn news than listen to that station anymore.
 
Need to make changes to the morning Bucky/Bob show. Although I don't care because I don't listen anymore.
 
it's too bad craig way's now stuck with a sinking ship. 1530 is the place he needs to be. my how the mighty 1300 has fallen.
 
Ouch. I agree with just about everything said on the thread, but ouch.

Thanks for the invitation, sorry for the jaundice, but destroying the old Zone has had its impact and it won't be undone without great effort. Tweaks won't do it if it can be done at all.

I want to say the bitterness will be most intense on Longhorn football fridays, but the bitterness may be all 1300's as listeners tune into what is potentially an even better Longhorn football talk package than was ever at the Zone.

Still, good luck to you, Jabob.
 
Twin Peaks...???

Perfect because their food sucks too.
Scenery is okay but unfortunately you can't see it on the radio.
 
Damn... I oddly like AJ... hopefully he gets to stay or my radio may never hit 1300 again. Z Hanson was a nice addition as well...

.............and that's all i have to say about that.
 
1300 lost me a long time ago, but the cherry on top was when buck and bob started. I immediately changed my preset stations and have only gone back to listen to the longhorn games,
 
Jabob,

Is that the same "Has" Ben Bennett who QB'd the old Dallas Texans for Ernie Stautner at Reunion Arena?

Also, I heard a David Anderson/Hugh Lewis rumor. care to comment?
 
Craig Way is un-listenable (i think i just created a word..)
Ummmm.... uhhhhh.... aaaahhhhhhh's in between ridiculously drawn out sentences designed to fill air and time.

I was amazed at how bad he was when I first moved to Austin.... and he's still on the air. I guess the 2-4 slot if filler anyway, but damn.. Put someone else in there who's more entertaining.
 
The bottom line is that there isn't ONE local show on 1300 that is even decent. Several months ago, it was better than 1530. Shows you what one bad hire (Fatty Greg Henson) will do.
 
well, KVET-AM ISN'T the name of the station..........it's just the call letters.

The name of the station is 1300 The Zone.

It's only been TEN YEARS.........you'd think people are smart enough to remember that by now.
 
Yeah, no kidding. I mean, the call letters are KVET, 1300 simulcasts with KVET, 1300 has Bob Cole on every morning... what's so confusing about that?
 
Bob Cole has only been on for the last few weeks.

The station's name has been 1300 The Zone for TEN FREAKING YEARS.

It shouldn't be very hard to remember.
 
AJ just get fire (on the air no less)? Today's show was ... interesting. The only reason I listened was because the Rangers game started at 6:30.

-R
 
The "lineup" for May 11th (on the website) is:

2-4 - Craig Way show with AJ Hoffman
4-7 - The Sports Buffet

Hmmmm...... sure hope AJ is not joining Craig Way - just don't like him (AJ) at all.
 
I think AJ has potential when he sticks to sports. he can be too much of a smarass at times though.

not sure about him a Craig

I guess this is 1300's last surge. what a disaster that station turned into. I can see them being tejano music by the end of the year
