So I tuned into Live105 for the first time in a couple of weeks this afternoon, and I’m delighted to hear an actual live person announcing something about some upcoming concerts at Chase Center.
Nice! That’s an improvement from edgy echo voice guy.
Then she says “This is Megan Holiday” and I go wait a minute that sounds familiar…
So I spent a couple of years living in LA and one of my favorite radio stations there was KROQ, which is has a similar alt rock format to Live105.
So I listened a lot to KROQ’s stream while Live105 was off the air.
And the host for KROQ in the same afternoon timeslots is… Megan Holiday!
I mean it doesn’t take much time to read copy about upcoming events in different markets, and Ms. Holiday does a good job of localizing the announcements, i.e. she’s not just dryly reading the copy.
No real point, I just thought it might be interesting to fellow listeners in the Bay Area.
