Bubba

Radio-- Info's Tom Taylor reports that DJ Bubba the Love Sponge  is back at Howard Stern's Sirius radio channel clutching a freshly signed contract.

 

But,  his show is a rebroadcast of the terrestrial radio show he's now doing in Tampa.

 

WTF????????? I thought satellite was supposed to be bringing new unfettered content?? Sirius  subscribers are pissed, but  the satellite network promises he will also be working on exclusive content for it.

 

This is not a good sign for Mel Karmazin's  struggling empire. They obviously paid the Sponge less  than he could get  commercial dial.  No wonder, after paying top dog Stern half $1 billion. 

Bubba returned to broadcast radio in January, 2008 on Cox Radio's WHPT-FM (102.5 The Bone)/Tampa and WFYV-FM (Rock 105)/Jacksonville, both Classic Rock outlets.
