SAN FRANCISCO — Several local radio stations may need to look for new programming, after the widely-syndicated Dr. Dean Edell announced yesterday that he’s retiring from his medical advice show at the end of the year. The show has local affiliates in Syracuse, Utica-Rome and Ithaca/Cortland, among others. 
SYRACUSE/UTICA-ROME — Less than a week after dropping computer advice talk show host Kim Komando due to apparent scheduling conflicts, CNY Talk Radio (WFBL/WMCR/WUTI) has announced a replacement: The Tech Guy, hosted by Leo Laporte, is now part of the trio’s weekend lineup. 
NEW YORK CITY — When Kelly Ripa takes vacation in mid-August, there will be an empty seat on the long-running morning TV gabfest Live! With Regis and Kelly. To find substitutes, the show launched a “Women of Radio Co-Host for a Day” promotion. Listeners submitted their nominations, and today, syndicated AC night host Delilah, heard throughout Central New York, is among the top 100 finalists. 
SALT LAKE CITY, UT — During one of his national tour appearances over the weekend, Glenn Beck told fans he has been diagnosed with macular distrophy, a disease that could cost the syndicated talk show host his vision. Beck’s syndicated show has affiliates in all four markets of CNYRadio.com’s coverage area. 
SYRACUSE — Even though her old affiliate, Lite Rock 105.9 (WLTI) is now an all-talk station, Delilah’s still on the air in Syracuse. Listeners who like to “slow down and love someone” with the popular syndicated hostess just need to slide their radios down to Y94FM (WYYY). 
SYRACUSE — Geographically, they may be closer to Villanova, Pennsylvania, but spiritually, Big D and Bubba were rooting with the 34,616 fans in the Carrier Dome for the Orange to BEAT NOVA last Saturday night. 
SYRACUSE — The long-anticipated debut of on-air personalities at New Country WOLF(-FM) 105.1 and 96.7 (WLLF-FM) happens today. According to an email blast sent out to listeners late last night, the station will begin airing the syndicated “Big D & Bubba” show this morning. 
Rush Limbaugh will return to the airwaves on Wednesday, according to his syndicator, Premiere Radio Networks. The conservative talk host, heard in all 4 CNYRadio.com markets, had a brief scare last week when he was rushed to the hospital after complaining of chest pain. 
About 300 country stations nationwide — including three in Central New York — are hunting for new programming to fill their weekend schedules after Premiere Radio Networks cancelled the long-running “Jeff Foxworthy Countdown” today. |
