Article about a radio program, not properly referenced as notable. WP:NMEDIA does not confer an automatic notability freebie on radio programs just because they're stated as having been syndicated to more than just one station -- the notability test for radio programs is the reception of reliable source media coverage in sources independent of the show's own self-published web presence. But the only references here are self-published ones -- one host's résumé and the other host's new podcast -- and the article has been tagged for referencing problems since 2009 without improvement.

Keep and fix - I haven't paid much attention to this article since creating it as a virtual stub ten years ago. This nationally-syndicated show received a NAB Marconi Award so the subject matter is notable, but I agree that the references need some work. Adding this to my to-do list ...

I've finished some initial cleanup work which hopefully addresses both notability and lack of references. Engineer Bob (talk) 01:54, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep—seems OK, esp. with Bob's improvements. Gaelan 💬✏️ 00:45, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
