"It's a positive to merge with SiriusXM. It is interesting that all these competitors in the arena are now joining forces. That never would happened ten years ago."

SiriusXM now faces a similar test."

"FM is just one distribution point in a much larger ecosystem that includes streaming, podcasts, satellite and whatever comes next. The goal is no longer to own a frequency. It's to own every moment a sports fan wants to listen."

"You want to crystalize the story as fast as possible. Cut through the fat. Don’t waste time when you’re on the air, just like you don’t waste space when you’re writing... The reporting background frames everything we do."

"Sports Radio 610, we're growing. You heard it in the promo, and you're going to hear it a lot from us as we get to this August 13th date, and as we go beyond it. We're becoming louder, clearer, and better than ever."

Two cities, two overlapping weekends, seven sold-out shows. Four stations made sure their city didn't miss a beat.
