WIP Rumor: Martorano Out, Macnow to Middays

Share

After sweeping changes were announced at 950 WPEN last week, the Philly airwaves shakeup may be spreading to WIP. Via Dan Gross:

There are hardcore rumors at 610 WIP that nighttime host Glen Macnow will move to middays to cohost with Anthony Gargano. Steve Martorano, who's currently paired with Gargano, is said to be leaving the station for a job outside of radio.

Former Eagle Ike Reese, a frequent WIP guest and longtime
friend of the station, is rumored to be taking over Macnow's 7 to 11
p.m. slot. Station manager Marc Rayfield did not reply to e-mails.

The Cuz's Curse continues! The only thing we have heard confirmed is that this is currently only a rumor, and nothing is official. If this comes to fruition, it would mean a clean sweep of my current drive time favorites, as I'd grown accustomed to hearing Jody or Glen, depending on when the whistle blows on a given day. On the bright side, if you time it right, you can keep switching back and forth between 610 & 950 and get the old Mac & Mac Middays show.
