A sad day for sports fans in Edmonton. In a hockey mad town such as Edmonton it is too bad to see this happen as there was some good content available via radio and resulting podcasts to play later if you couldn't listen live.
Pretty sure the main players will land on their feet with new podcasts and opportunities but the world of sports talk radio seems pretty much dead. Will really miss Rishaug on the AM show and Strudwick but no doubt they will pop up in new podcast forms soon to add to what they already do.
I had the opportunity to be in studio on the air a few times in the past over there to talk some hockey and even guest host once with some of the hosts. All good people including the behind the scenes talent.
Bell, Lets Talk....about your crappy near monopoly.
