Even if I was doing weekends at KRTH for a year, 5 years, 10 years or whatever and let go, I'm sure I'd land solidly on my feet somewhere. There was a time that having a station like KRTH on a resume would help make that resume solid.
Dave Randall (who did 20 years in weekends at KRTH) already has his new gig....up the coast at KBBY Oxnard/Ventura.
As for Don MacKinnon, if it hadn't been for that tragic accident, Don would surely be remembered in the same breath as Morgan and Steele today. An innovative, gotta-listen talent, he was exactly what KFWB needed to survive and possibly even compete against a KRLA that had been eating its lunch the past two years and the new KHJ that debuted shortly after MacKinnon's arrival. No offense to Joe Yocam, but I'd make that trade in a heartbeat. KFWB just did it for all the wrong reasons...and rightly paid the price in having to bring Joe back and pay him damages.
