Old voices returning to Huntington

Post by Bar Rat »

Dave Roberts is returning to the Tri-State from Texas. Perhaps to the WKEE morning show gig or something else back in familiar surroundings?

Looks like Huntington is thrilled. I am amazed WKEE isn't stunting, what with all the buzz. :|

Is that why the company is running ads on, among other things, WVHU advertising for a WKEE morning co-host with three years experience?

Maybe, 'Sheila or Dave' is planned to replace some other morning host on the cluster.

I have only heard a few minutes of the show but it sounds exactly like "Sheila and Jim," with Sheila droning on and on about a sale on purses or something and Dave, barely audible, going "uh huh," "yeah," "oh," etc. Why even have a co-host?

I think they should use Tom Roten as the co-host...which would then solve a number of problems that otherwise must be addressed in the near-term future. While the female talks about the sale on purses, Tom can mutter about dogs in his yard!

So a Tri-state part-timer, moves to a tiny market to become a full-timer, and now moves back home to be Shelia's laugh track.

Sounds like a made for TV movie to me. Touching story. Grats.
