Leaving KMLE

Well, it's very sad, but true. Dave, Stacey, Duelly, and myself are no longer on the air at KMLE Country 108. 

After over eight years there, it is a little sad, but ultimately I think it's for the best. I'm really excited about the next stage of my career...whatever that might be. 

I want to thank KMLE Country for eight great years. I was very lucky to have worked with some of the most professional and most talented people in radio. More than anything though, I want to thank the KMLE Nation; all the loyal listeners who have spent every morning with us, called in with their kind words and met us out at KMLE events. You guys truly made my time at KMLE special, and I'll never forget you.

Meanwhile, make sure you check in here to find out what I'll be up to next!

Shappy,
I miss the morning crew so much. I stayed loyal to KMLE through Tim and Willy, then Ben and Brian, but now they go too far. As I told Dave..the whole crew leaving has left a big big big void in my life. It's like what the D-backs did to Gonzo. I miss MC too. Best of luck to you with your career as a stand up comic. Please let us know when you will be somewhere in the area. We miss you all.
Love, Nikki

Anita from Chicago IL where I listened to you and everyone from the KMLE morning show. When I found out what they did to you guys I felt like someone died! There's dead silence now in the morning for no other morning show can compare. I miss each and every one of you. I only listened for the last year and a half, but what an impression you made in my life. I wish you all the best finding another radio station we can listen to you guys on. I need something to fill the HUGE void kmle country left in my life. I am no longer a listener of kmle. I miss all of you very, very much. Best wishes

Shappy,

I miss you, Stacey and Dave. I have not and will not listen to KMLE! So, I have NO country station. I don't like Ben and Brian and I don't like Tim and Willy and geez, well I only liked you guys! Please keep in touch with your whereabouts and if you know what's up with Dave and Stacey. I wish all of you continued success and happiness. PS It was very nice of you to say the kind words about KMLE. You should never professional or personally burn bridges. On the other hand what they did was WRONG to you and all of your loyal listeners. Take care
