It's not everyday that LA radio stations change format, but just like Indie 103.1's recent departure the entire line of KLSX FM Talk is becoming just like all the other stations tomorrow at 5pm. The format is changing to a Britney, Justin, Jonas Bros and other overproduced pop music roster to appeal to a younger demographic.
Frosty, Heidi, and Frank are breaking the news that this is their next to last show, yet trying not to say too much about this as they're trying not to steal Tom Leykis' thunder.
Mostly, I'll miss Tim Conway Jr.'s show with Arsenio Hall on Wednesday nights, though Thursday nights with the Jesse Jackson game were especially entertaining too. I know the contracted employees (on-air talent) have a bit of a financial cushion since their contracts were bought out, but I still hope the good ones can make a come back to the airwaves (or podcasts) soon. I'll also miss hearing the producers (Gina Grad, Randy Wang and Crysta Garner) who are not contracted, just unemployed after tomorrow. You can read more about it on the 97.1 FM wiki.
