At 6:30 PM on Saturday evening, the station went silent as El Dorado Broadcasters ended the news/talk format.

"We have a lot of programming across our stations, and some of it just really isn't focused."

"I couldn’t be more excited to join the incredible 77WABC lineup.” 

"I'm kind of looking at it like I'm beginning my radio career in as much as when I started, I was on a college station that nobody listened to. And I'm looking at it like starting a podcast and a channel that doesn't exist."

"I love to do some impressions. We sing a little bit, play some funny clips. It's just a little buffet of everything. And my producers know that among the stories we have to cover every day, there are two or three fun things we can do, which are either New York-centric or from around the country and sometimes the world.”

"You guys know this: no one takes on the politicians like me. Nobody advocates for better government like me. And most importantly, nobody fights for you like me. And that's what we're gonna do every weekday."

“The consummate professional whose solid coverage will be sorely missed by our Washington Bureau and by our listeners nationwide.”

"You have a vision, and you try to create a culture that supports the vision. Sometimes everything sounds so simple. But if it were that simple, everybody would get to the top."

The “Steak of the Union” promotion is more than just clever wordplay. It was a reminder of what makes this format special.

This is the moment where leaders in the format have two choices. You can plug your ears and shout “la, la, la, la, la,” or you can do something about it.
