What would you think of Jim DeCastro hiring Chuck Swirsky, Chet Coppock, Elliott Harris, and me as hosts on 87.7 WGN New sports radio station. It could happen. Just let him know by posting your support below.

Chuck Swirsky does the Bulls games, so it isn't probably going to happen for him.

Spada that would be great if they hired you, but a question. Do you realize that if you were to get your show on 87.7 that means it's not just a play thing anymore? It's not just your little side gig where you get to play pretend sports radio. I know in the past you have said you didn't have the time with your FT gig (at which you are quite successful) to put in the work to be on 670 or 1000. I would hope that you don't think this will be "oh I can record 4-5 of these on the weekend and JDC will play them for us". If that's gonna be how you go about it, then I would tell him to give the slot to somebody who's hungry and wants to work their ass off. If you're gonna make it a priority and bust your ass, then good for you man.

Save this for a few hosts that are already on the SCORE.

What happened to Content Factory? Was that just a shell LLC to legitimize Dan Patrick's departure from ESPN Radio?

99% agree with this, but if it's a matter of like a Sunday morning show, then I think he can get away with it being a side gig, albeit a side gig where he works very hard at doing well. Go for it, man, chase the dream.

This station seems like a perfect venue for a rebirth of the Chicago Sports Exchange with Lou Canellis and the gang discussing sports, finance and home improvement
