News/talk has produced Marconi winners and finalists for years. Hosts who've been recognized before -- or who've built shows around exactly the kind of local connection and audience loyalty the Marconis are meant to honor -- don't typically forget to apply.

"We're doing very well ratings-wise, and apparently really well sales-wise, advertising-wise. If we have sponsors waiting, that's a good sign."

"You're not a talk show host. Your job is to conduct an interview where you have to be armed with facts to challenge your guest."

"Radio. I loved it. I will always love it. Oh, how lucky I have been!"

"I never thought I’d be the last host."

“This move is about maximizing opportunity for both our listeners and our advertising partners."

"This wasn’t an easy decision.”

"As I've said many, many times before, we are in a whole new world, to say the least."

"The whole world is a really big thing to cram into just three minutes at the top of that cast. There's a lot of decision-making that has to happen about what we're covering and how much time we're giving to each story, because you don't have a whole lot of time to do it. But that's kind of the fun part of it."

Although listeners in Frederick will lose the 103.9 FM simulcast, WTOP will remain available on its full-power 103.5 FM signal.
