Emily, you are so right. Lori and Julia are a joke. I plan to email their sponsors and tell them I will refuse to buy from them as long as they sponsor the show.

I've received a couple of emails from people telling me they won't buy our product all because Kevyn Burger was let go.

Our reply is "so"?

Minnesota is one state that has the buyer's market with the softest touch. Especially the mani-pedi "eat, pray, love" obsessed FM107.1 listener base. All Anna Wintour has to do is declare that Minnesotans look like little houses and they rush off to go on a diet, but at the same time shovel down hotdogs at the local sports game then complain that they're too busy to get off their **** and go to the local grocery store because they're just too busy.

???? Really..wtf are you talking about and what does it have to do with anything? Whatevs..oh and FurQ too...Anywya, I'm very gratified to see that I'm not the only one who is baffled by the Lori and Julia thing...I'll leave it at that but I could go on and on. Ok just one more thing..Not only are they not smart but they make their stupid statements as though they were fact. They take a shard of something here and a shred of something there and then go on the air and say "they read it" (which I doubt) And the interviews are soo painful. I agree that I cringe thinking about them being the ambassadors for Minnesota women. I can hear in the voices of some of the people they interview..They're like, Is this a joke?? 

After sleeping on it I've decided Kevyn is way too smart and classy for what this station has become. It would have been sad to see her become a ratings whore like the rest of them (and management made it clear that that's what it takes..Can't string 3 words together? That's cool! Just talk about your vagina alot and laugh like you're at a 2 for 1 happy hour!) Yeah Kevyn's too good for all that. I think it might be one of those..what do you call it..blessings in disguise..

Am I the only 1 on here who listens to Colleen & the Boys?  Everything is a comparison between Kevyn and Lori and Julia.  Thats like saying Herbert Hoover was a better/worse president than Howard Taft... How could you POSSIBLY compare the two?!?! 

 

Just listen from 1-3 and pipe down.  This isn't high school.  Show business just happens to be, uh, a BUSINESS.  Kevyn was a victim of that aspect of it.  She's still highly respected in my book, and she didn't sell out to Clear Channel.

Nope, I listen to Colleen and the Boys too. after Ian & Margery sign off, I listen to music and then back to FM107.1 at 1pm

This is regarding Emily and FM 107.1. I do agree picking on Lori and Julia was a bit harsh, but I imagine you do some stand-up when you are not marketing. I laughed so hard my wife slapped me back on the chair I was falling off of.

But seriously, I know that most of the folks who we see at FM 107 events and most of our friends are bright and caring people who believe strongly in a purpose driven life. Kevyn represents that philosophy. Do not go down the road of slop and bring her back. We and many of the best listeners miss her and will never listen to pop journalism. Minnesota Public Radio is easy to turn to.
