Mark Wheat hosted his last installment of the Music Lover's Club on Radio K yesterday. He also mentioned that his official duty at the station was Program Coach, not Station Manager or anything. Anyway, it's easy for people to jump to the wrong conclusion since he's on the air so often. His last regular shift will be on Tuesday, though he might have to sub for someone after that point.
I guess this puts the switchover to KCMP near the end of this week or at the beginning of next week. The MPR folks are not being very clear about when things might happen. They're taking their time, which seems so weird in the modern radio world (it took an hour and fifteen minutes for Rev 105 to become X105 back in 1997). Well, then again, I was figuring it'd be about two weeks from the time it was announced by the MPR folks that he would be leaving Radio K.
I tried watching The Show to Be Named Later... again on Saturday night/Sunday morning, but the audio was crap (they acknowledged that fact with a little scrolling blob of text at the beginning of the show). I don't know who their musical guest was, since I ended up watching part of an episode of Monk I hadn't seen.
Unless some HR people just decide to cause trouble, it looks like my brother will be heading to California to work for Intel. My family will probably be driving out there the first week in February. Hopefully the weather patterns will have shifted by then and we won't get stuck in snow in the mountains :-p
We'd probably take I-35 to I-80 and go west to the Sacramento area. Some of the video of California snow I saw this weekend was a picture of an I-80 sign...
