It's gotta be more than 20k. These producers have houses and kids. They couldn't survive on 20k.

That's why my guess is 40k.

I know these producers don't want to hear it. But it's a job that requires no skill. That's why the pay is low.

Christ, drinky did it for 15 years. And his brain cells had already been destroyed by booze when he took the job. So if drinky can do it, any idiot can do it.


Somebody who's been around for a decade has got to pull more down than $40k. I was thinking like $60k for the most senior producer. Also, unless it's in some god awful area or they don't have a mortgage, I don't think anyone is supporting kids and owning a home while making $40k a year.



probably right but we're talking about a dying medium which is radio. Thats why I think salary may be more stagnant or declining due to the state of the industry.

So you understand why they suck now?

IDK but I think Shep and Zawawski live out toward Channahon and Coal City. Either you have a spouse/partner help you make your dream or you work a second or whatever. 40k a year can be doable but you don't get a Range Rover that is for sure.


Zawaski lives in Homewood I think. It's not exactly cheap to live there, if he bought a house the property taxes in the Cook County south burbs are godawful. I don't know what his wife does but it must be something at least decent.

People say the producers should go to the smaller markets for on-air opportunities. The truth is there aren't a lot of those. A lot of smaller market stations only have one local drive time show and otherwise run ESPN or Fox Sports Radio pretty much 24/7.

I listend to Les last few nights. I like the guy but man, the act is so old. Nobody cares about what the 1998 cubs did. Or how to pronounce Chicago correctly. Murph went off on someone 2 weeks ago on his show and now I'm thinking it's Les.

Do we know of Murph and Les not liking each other? Seems like they would be friends.

Isn't the last two hours just replays from the first few hours?

Ever since the switch I noticed less Jay Zawaski and a lot more Rick Camp. Which I'm not complaining. I like Rick.
