If you're a fan of Ben & Skin and you, like me, are wondering WTF?, I've got some clues about Live 105.3 FM going all college fight song this afternoon.
Apparently it's called "stunting", a traditional radio ploy used by stations in advance of a major programming change. In other words, as predicted, Live 105.3 is about to jump into the sports talk radio game as the re-named and re-formatted, "The Fan".
(Update: B&S will be on the air at 3 to expound on all this.)

As I heard on Monday, management at Live 105.3 105.3 The Fan has not only fired controversial/comment-creating (350? You shittin' me?) Russ Martin but also agreed to pay him through 2011 just to keep his ass off another local station. Confirmed by Russ here.
I also hear a previously planned Russ Martin Show Band gig at Joe Avezzano's joint up in Frisco on Dec. 19 may blossom into an explosive 105.3 protest,
