That's gotta be one of the most certain things in radio, you're going to get fired at some point but the fact they fired everyone at the same time is kind of nuts.
I don't listen to Radio anymore though, even in my truck my phone and flash drive have my entire music library so no need.

I really miss LG 104.3….. the station still exists under a new name and all it plays is fucking soft dentists waiting room music, it’s awful. Whereas LG played great music all the time (think of rock 101 on a long weekend). They also had the LG blues lounge most nights after 10pm and just played real bangers.

Pour one out
LG 104.3 was awesome. When it was running, it reminded my dad of LG73 (AM 730) back in the 80s
I listened to QMFM when i was young and i listened less when they changed Mike & Tara to Nat & Drew. Which was approximately when i found LG 104.3 on air.
I love 70s-80s bangers, and 90s-00s are pretty nostalgic now
Fathered more RS members than anybody else. Who's your daddy?

OMFG!! CKLG 73 back in the 60's "Boss 40."
Around the time the Beattles came to Vancouver, LG, which btw, stands for Lions Gate, became the most listened to radio station in Vancouver. The then young, MG1 collected the weekly top 40 pamphlets they produced. They were available at record stores. I went to Kelly's Records Store on Granville Street religiously to get the latest copy. I have stacks of them stored away.
I was also a QMFM listener. Rock 101, too..........

You can tell what age group RS is now vs before LOL
I listen to 104.9 in the morning just for Sonia and Kevin. They have really good back and forth and their topics were quite funny and a lot of times just on the edge of what can be played on the radio. But once they're off their air its Podcast/Apple Music, there's no need to stay with the radio.
