Toucher probably lost half his net worth.
A local morning show on WBOS would be awesome. Maybe ZLX?Going off his work history, I could see him at WBOS or WROR, but not necessarily WKLB. He has history of working on Kidd Kradick's show and working at Alt-Rock stations. Anything for me to say beyond that is all speculation. I rather not create rumors based on my own fan fiction. Just that historically, I could see him fitting in at both WBOS and WROR.

Beasley also owns 'ROR. Also WBCN in Florida...Isn't WBOS owned by the same company that owns The Sports Hub?
People in Atlanta are suggesting he might return to 99X down there.

The one they have now does obscenely well men 18-34, and engenders tremendous fan passion...
Fred went through a divorce. He has child support. His ex may have got damages. He had an expensive year...
Only speculating, but he has experience in Top 40 radio, meaning that there is a wider range of possibilities. People mention the possibility of WEEI, and I actually would think that he would fit in better on a show that focuses on general entertainment instead of a sports focused show.Isn't WBOS owned by the same company that owns The Sports Hub?

Yet makes no money....and hasn't for years.
FYI 99X Atlanta is a classic alt format that has brought back most of their original staff.Only speculating, but he has experience in Top 40 radio, meaning that there is a wider range of possibilities.
Once again, why would Beasley let someone go, only to hire him at their other station, in order to compete with their cash cow?Looks like that's out of the window, thus the random guess of WBOS is off the table.
With WBOS, exactly. However, if he said I didn't want to continue at the Sports Hub, he could have negotiated to move. Obviously that isn't what happened.FYI 99X Atlanta is a classic alt format that has brought back most of their original staff.

Also you do realize that although Rich worked at 99X, he's better remembered for his time on Kidd Kraddick.
Rest of post deleted. "Fair Usage" does not permit more than the part of the article I left as the source is copyright.Toucher and Rich,” the highly-rated, humor-focused 98.5 The Sports Hub program that served as the morning bedrock for the radio station’s rapid rise to ratings success, is no more.
The end of the show, which also featured third voice Jon Wallach, is not a surprise; for months there had been tension between Toucher and Shertenlieb, longtime radio partners who first worked together in Atlanta before coming to the Boston market at WBCN in 2006. But the abruptness is stunning.
All speculation on both our parts, which makes this fun to discuss back and forth. I think Toucher had a point in his discussion. "He may be the next Matty in the Morning." I'm not thinking that Rich goes to Kiss 108, but the main idea is that Rich's personality, general interests, and work ethic could fit in well at a Hot AC or Top 40 station. He has range, and can be suited across multiple formats. I wouldn't be so sure to see him back at a Rock or Alternative station; yet if he did end up at one, I wouldn't be surprised either.That could be, but he has a better chance of getting hired by 99X.
I first theorized Beasley keeping him, and moving him to another station. All evidence shows that my theory was inaccurate.
Is it no different than what you claim?Obviously.
If you like speculation, you might consider him joining a podcast, rather than a traditional radio show.
