Loading ...Tim and Willy have been a valley staple for as long as I can remember in country music radio (except for a very short out-of-state gig which they quickly recovered from and were forgiven for). I grew up listening and loving the All Earl Band and their pop-country parodies, and am constantly amazed at the efforts these boys go through to make this sprawling valley feel like one big family. I wake up and head to work every morning at 5am and am happy to catch the beginning of their show on my way in. It starts my day off feeling happy and energetic. So you can imagine how my heart sank last night when the local news station reported that they will not continue broadcasting with KNIX or Clear Channel Communications after the new year.
From their official site:
It’s official: After nearly 10 years, Tim & Willy will no longer be heard on 102.5 KNIX- starting January 1st, 2008.
Though this may come as quite a surprise, (it has to us) we want you to know the simple facts and how this has come to be.
We did not quit. We did not get fired. We are not leaving for a better job. This was not about money or any fancy perks. We simply could not come to terms with the station’s parent company- Clear Channel Communications over the length of a new contract. We hold no grudges with the guys who had to make this difficult decision and we leave feeling very proud of the work we were privileged to do on this legendary station.

Airing every Wednesday at 9pm PST. Ghost Hunters is not a show where a group of people go out searching for ghosts or the supernatural to classify a place haunted, but Ghost Hunters is a group of people that go out searching for ways to prove wrong, or de-bunk claims of hauntings made by people that live in businesses buildings, houses, or historic places. Leaders of the group, Jason and Grant are former employees of the Roto-Ruter Plumbing company. So they know if what you may think is a ghost is really a plumbing or electrical issue that can easily be resolved. I will admit, I watch the show to see/hear ghosts, but when they de-bunk something it teaches me that if i ever feel that type of errie feeling I should always check my plumbing, or electrical system to see if that may be the problem. I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed but not a single show that airs after Ghost Hunters has survived in the past, and now Ghost Hunters is backed up by its own show.Hehe…That amuses me very much.So if you ask for my opinion on if you should watch the show or not, I vote YES because, Ghost hunters keeps you interested, and educates you a little bit at the same time.Ghost Hunters all the way…
