Anyone heard anything about Steve Robinson leaving the Howie Carr Radio Network?
I missed the 6:00 hour, but pulling up the Friday show on Twitter, Steve announced that he's leaving for a new opportunity. He said on the show his last day is July 5th. Sounds like Taylor may be taking over as producer?
I was surprised that Howie gave no mention of "Sandy" leaving...she was there one day and poof, gone, no mention until IIRC a caller asked about her maybe weeks later and there was just that casual, ho hum response, "she's gone to another station"....I listened to "Sandy" when she was on WMEX.....she used to mention Howie here and there and in a positive light, Howie just brushed her off, see ya, yeah, she's gone to another station, he could have said, she was with me for years, she was a good producer I wish her luck, nope, just a big fat pfffffft.
I wonder if Steve is getting his own show somewhere?
Being married to Howie.Don't know what happened to Kathy Carr but Steve said in his thanks to her she's gone through great adversity over the years.
It isn't uncommon not to mention people have left, especially if they are leaving to somewhere that may be considered a competitor. And even more especially if they are not leaving on exactly the best of terms.
Did you ever find out what happened to Howie's wife last week?

Steve's going away party.......
1. Nancy "aka Sandy" Shack" is a very well respected broadcaster who joined RKO during the stations golden years in the mid eighties. She was never given an opportunity to host her program at RKO or with Howie so she left for an on air position at 1510. She now serves as Dan Rea's Executive Producer and basically co-hosts NightSide with Rea each weeknight.
2. I used to listen to Carr on a regular basis. For about the last 10 years, I would tune in a few times a year. I could not stand Robinson's smug, we are so much better than you attitude.
3. In other news former RKO morning show hostand Ch. 7 Anchor Kim Carrigan has joined WBZ Radio as a freelance Anchor/Reporter
Leave it to howie to attempt to monetize the departure of a staff member...
