I was the one who said, You Tell Me. And you did. Based on your thoughtful and, in many cases, passionate input, we are going to leave our talk lineup on KTBB unchanged. For now. I qualify it “for now” only because of our recognition that things change quickly. What’s working today could stall tomorrow. Something we don’t even know about today can be tomorrow’s hottest property. Most of all, however, I gained real strength...
