Stephanie MillerKFI Host Takes to the Tube

More radio stars are crossing over totelevision than ever, it seems, with KFI(640 AM) being a major case in point.KFI's evening talk host Stephanie Millerjoins colleagues Rush Limbaugh and BillHandel next September when she getsher own shot at becoming the nextJohnny Carson. Disney execs noticed thecomedy call -in show host when she wasstill in her first month at KFI doing week-ends. The syndicated show is already setto air in more than 60 percent of thenation's television markets according toMiller.

The comedienne majored in theatre atUSC and honed her skills performingwith the L.A. Connection and at Thelmprov. Returning to her native Buffalo,N.Y., she stumbled into radio when afriend invited her to contribute comedyroutines to his morning radio show. Hermaterial was well -received. She went intoradio full-time with her own morningshow, mixing music with comedy atWCMF in Rochester. Hot 97 (WQHT) in

Miller loves the freedom of an all -talkstation.

"I can go full out from 7 to 9 withouthearing my boss say. 'Shut up and playthe music,' " she said. "Besides, being inL.A. radio is like getting paid to auditionfor every producer in town. -Shake, Rattle and Roll

KLOS (95.5 FM) has felt the burn ofnumbers crashing through the stratos-phere after many years of stellar ratings.Longtime Bob Coburn, Joe Benson andGeno Michellini got their pink slips andthe revised format brings uptempo pre-sentation with more emphasis on newmusic. KLOS program director CareyCurelop explained all the changes at hisstation.

"In August 1994 we started to revampour musical direction," he said. "Wewanted to make it a more contemporary -sounding radio station rather than a clas-sic rock station that plays new musicoccasionally. Once we made the musicchanges - in order to complete thetransformation - we needed to changethe talent."

Former fill-in KLOS personalityRandy Maranz takes the 10 a.m. to 2p.m. shift. Ex-KNAC 105.5 personalitiesLong Paul and Remy Maxwell arc incharge of the 2 p.m to 6 p.m. and 6 p.m.to 10 p.m. time slots, respectively.

With hard -rocker KNAC's imminentdemise, the moves make sense, especial-ly now that Arrow 93 and KLSX have justabout locked in all the retro-rock listen-ers. KLSX snapped up mellow JoeBenson and Bob Coburn.Briem's Replacement

Ira Fistel has some big shoes to fillover at KABC now that Ray Briem hasvacated the slot he held for 27 years.Fistel has a moderately conservative take

on the issues of the day. L.A. night owlswere accustomed to Briem as he gar-nered the best talk show ratings in townduring the time slot. Some may recall hisearly days spinning platters at KGIL andKLAC before becoming a talk show hostin 1967.Snyder Comes to KGRB

Tom Snyder

CBS created a new late -night program-ming block by incorporating "The LateLate Show" with Tom Snyder into athree-hour radio program. The new showconsists of a live simulcast of Snyder'sCBS televison show with two extra hoursof interviews with Elliott Forrest, a for -

(RoundupExposing Stereotyping

Multiculturalism has conic to KABC790 Saturday nights from 7 p.m. to 9p.m. According to host/actor/broadcasterMario Machado, the aim of "The Voiceof Multiculturalism" is to challenge lis-teners to honestly express their fears andbeliefs.

"I told my audience that I had neverdined at an African -American's homebecause I didn't know if their standardsof hygiene were the same as mine orwhether my car would get stolen whileparked in their neighborhood," Machadosaid. "The phones lit up like crazy withAfrican -Americans calling in to invite meinto their homes for dinner - so I couldsee for myself that everything would hefine."

Machado. who is of Portuguese -Chinese descent, was one of L.A.'s firstminority TV anchors. He won the Emmyrepeatedly for his work in TV and hasappeared in the feature films. "RockyIll," "St. Elmo's Fire" and "Robo Cop" I,II and Ill, among others.

KGFJ Switches SoundAN1) dropped their

rhythm and blues oldies format this falland will now air gospel music. KRLA's(1110 AM) soul -flavored oldies soundprobably hastened the demise of the ven-erable "dusties 1230," one-time home ofsuch radio greats as Hunter Hancock andThe Magnificent Montague.

Soul and rhythm and blues oldies arenow heard on KACE (103.9 FM), whichmade the switch from soft urban contem-porary. Kevin Fleming. program director,manages the new FM format from theKOST/KFI facilities in downtown L.A.

"The station now features the biggestartists of the '60s and the '70s," Flemingsaid. "We arc finding that although ourtarget demo is narrowly Afro-Americansand Hispanic between the ages of 30 and54, our audience is much broader thanthat."

The current lineup starts with Rico (6a.m.-10 a.m.), then Antoinette Russell(10 a.m.-3 p.m.), followed by Gillian (3-8 p.m.) and winds up with "The QuietStorm" hosted by E.Z. Wiggins until I

a.m. Johnny Morris covers overnightsand the weekend schedule is roundedout with Karla, Reginald Utley. KevinRoss, George Moore and MarkDrummond. The new lineup takesnationally syndicated morning man TomJoyner out L.A. radio.One Less Country Station

KFITX AM and FM, a country musicstation in San Bernardino, was sold andis off the air. The stations will resurrectas a Spanish station. Small adult stan-dards station KRCI, known as RadioCatalina. is also off the air.

Upset at KPFKThe public station, KPFK FM 90.7,

went through a major shakeup. PatScott, the programming chief for thePacifica Radio outlet, dismissed the topbrass: general manager Cliff Roberts,program director Lucia Chappel andassistant general manager Lisa Fowler in

December. The 112,000 -watt FM isrumored to go with more network -styleshows along with regular programmingblocks dictated from Pacifica headquar-ters in San Francisco. No replacementshave been named for the vacant posi-tions.

Excited About E!Casey Kasem returned to television

last month with "Casey's Top Ten" on E!cable network. Unlike "Casey'sCountdown," which ran in syndicationfrom 1980 to1992, this show lasts a fullhour and allows most songs to he played

Casey Kasemin their entirety. The rankings are pulledfrom Radio and Records' AdultContemporary, Hot Adult Contemporaryand Top 40 charts.

"I wasn't looking to go back to televi-sion, what with the four radio shows Ialready do for Westwood One," the veter-an host said. "But my wife. Jean, negoti-ated the deal with E! and I am veryhappy with the way things worked out.E! is on the cutting edge; they are verycreative with a great sense of teamwork.They make me feel like family."Gingrich 'Revolution'

The Nastyman of KIISContributing correspondent Alicia

Flannery asked stations' promotions andprogramming pros to choose their crowningcontributions to the community during 1994.

KIIS FM 102.7 & AM 1150One October morning, DJ Rick Dees

announced as a news item, "There's abald man wearing a wet suit giving awaymoney off the 60 freeway." The next dayDees reported that the same man wasstill giving away money and suggestedthat KIIS interview him. Dees learnedthat the stranger was an unemployed DJfrom Guam. It was Nastyman!

Although this event seemed like a pro-motional event, the idea for Nastymanstanding on a freeway did not come fromthe promotions department.

"In fact, I didn't know Rick Dees wasreporting my whereabouts," the NastyMan said.

How did this whole situation come about?The DJ from Guam told the story."I was on my way to visit my 6 -year -

old son who lives in Kansas," he said."As I looked out the window I could seethe L.A. city lights. Then the thought hitme: I want to work there; I want to livethere. So after my visit with my son, Iflew back to Los Angeles."

The Bald Man with a Tan, the NastyMan," is now heard weekdays on KIISduring the afternoon drive

KLOS FM 95.5KLOS promotion man Carey Curelop

chose the The Mark and Brian ChristmasShow at the Hollywood Paladium as hisstation's star community event. The early -morning concert featured such performersas Melissa Etheridge. Eddie Money,Collective Soul and the Marc Bonilla Band.

Broadcasting live, special guest DickVan Dyke read "The Night BeforeChristmas."

KLSX FM 97.1All KLSX's events in '94 were free,

promotion man Scott Segelbaum proudlyannounced. The third annual ClassicRock Art Show in May boasted 252celebrity donors' pieces, including thoseof Jerry Garcia, Yoko Ono, Joni Mitchelland REM. A silent auction raised$150,000 for the American Foundationfor Aids Research.

In October, the station sponsored theKLSX Classic Rock Jam at Woodly Parkin Van Nuys with Fleetwood Mac andRoger Quinn. Seglebaum said the freeconcert attracted a crowd of 40,000.

The last event of the year, the ClassicRock Expo in December, was a gianttrading ground for records, tapes, videosand rock memorabilia. Such rock stars asWarren Zevon, John Paul Jones of LedZeppelin and Greg Lake of Emerson,Lake and Palmer gave autographs.

KLSX invited Heidi Fleiss, who gavean exclusive interview to on -air personal-ity Cynthia Fox. Segelbaum added thatthe interview received national and inter-national coverage.

KPWR 105.9Michelle Mercer, program director for

Power, billed the "Knowledge of PowerFund" as the station's "most significantproject." The station produced a charity

Plans includea technical studio for TV and radio, a 16 -track recording studio, a 100 -seat the-ater, and classrooms. The station workedwith the L.A. County Parks andRecreation Department to break groundin the summer.

KRLA AM 1110Although KRLA is not a talk station.

listeners call in all day.Mike Wagner, program director,

described his station's contribution ofcommunity interaction.

"Through our request and dedicationformat, our audience calls to chat, sendmessages and request songs. We alsohave what we call 'KRLA Cares,' whichgives representatives from local publicservice organizations to actually recordtheir own announcements."

KBIG 104 FMIn conjunction with AMC Theatres,

KBIG organized a canned -food drive forthe homeless and hungry overThanksgiving. AMC threw in a free bag ofpopcorn for every can.

In December KBIG played Santa forChildren's Hospital. The station solicitedboth residences and businesses for toydonations. For a 20 -toy minimum, KBIGpicked up the toys.

If you woke up April 1 thinking KROQwas going to be the same old, same old,you were dreaming. Was Pirate Radioback, via KROQ? Yes! But just for a day.

"We actually try to do the unexpected365 days a year," said Gene Sandbloom,who doubles as program and musicdirector. "April 1 gives us an excuse tocross the line even further. Two yearsago, on April Fool's Day, we became 'TheGroovy Hits of the Super '70s.' When wewere inundated with complaint calls, wedecided to keep this type of programming

Although the second annual WeenieRoast and Singalong may have an unex-citing ring to it, the event is a major con-cert at Irvine Meadows with such groupsas the Violent Femmes, Counting Crowsand Beck. Proceeds went to Heal the Bayand Aids Project L.A.

KZLA FM 93.9For KZLA folks. January '94 meant

two things: earthquake and a new name.After the quake on the 17th, the staff

of Z 93.9 - formerly just KZLA - ralliedbehind their new moniker .

"It was a tragedy for the market, but itgave us an opportunity to help our com-munity," operations manager R.J. Curtissaid. "We announced that between LosAngeles and Orange County we wanted tocollect 1 million pennies. Through officialdrop sites and the Z93.9 van appearances,we collected 3.5 million pennies.

WE CUT THROUGHTHE CRAP

KFI AM640More Stimulating Talk Radio

KFI eventually dropped this controversial billboard.clubs, raised an additional $15,000. In aperiod of two and a half weeks, we had atotal of $450,000 for earthquake relief."

To add to its scorecard, the stationparticipated in the nationwide St. JudesChildren's Hospital Radioathon. Themorning show set a record of $130,000.Within a day and a half, $420,000 wasraised for research on cures for children'scatastrophic diseases.

KFI 640 AMWhen KFI first unfurled its motto,"We

cut through the crap," the station's mar-keting folks were quite proud. But someAngelenos were not impressed.

Bill Lewis, marketing and promotionmanager, explained the reaction to the signs.

"In the fall we launched an outdooradvertising campaign, which some peo-ple thought to be inappropriate and blas-phemous," he said.

"We were asked by the Los AngelesTransit Companies to either change it orremove it altogether."

KFI marketing minds revised their lineto "We cut through the carp."

In May the station's afternoon talkteam of John and Ken personallyinvolved themselves in the Menendezbrothers' case. After a mistrial wasdeclared, the D.A.'s office announcedthere were insufficient public funds toprosecute properly. With the help of theirlisteners,John and Ken organized a yard

sale, which yielded more than $4,000 tothe General Prosecution Fund of theD.A.'s office.

Seizing upon the 40th anniversary ofthe death of his grandparents atAuschwitz, Bill Handel of "Handel in theMorning" fame decided to invite twoneo-Nazis to Germany.

"I wanted to take these two guys -John Metzger and Dennis MacClean tothe death camp and ask them if theycould look me in the eye and say [on theairl, "This isn't true.' "

Not realizing that it is illegal toespouse Nazi ideas in Germany, Handelwas shocked when police seized hisguests at the Frankfurt airport anddeported them. Without permission fromthe authorities to broadcast fromAuschwitz, Handel ended up doing theshow from a phone booth in Poland.

KLVE 107.5 FMWhile other stations are packing their

programs with commercials, KLVE 107.5FM is busy unpacking them.

Programming VP Bill Taner regardsthis cutback as his station's greatest giftto KLVE listeners.

"We have cut back up to five commer-cials per hour," Taner said. We feel thisdramatic change will accent what we dobest: play the romantic music in theproper setting."


Predictions for '95BY SANDY WELLS

1. Rush Limbaugh will experiencehis first ratings deflation.

2. KLSX will decline in the ratingsdespite Howard Stern's presence.Rival KLOS should rebound nicelyafter more format fine-tuning thisyear. KLOS' decision to emphasizenew rock looks like a winner.

3. One adult contemporary stationwill change its format this year.

4. Arrow '93 KCBS will hang inthere against KLSX, continuing todraw blood from the former marketleader.

5. Spanish music radio will con-tinue to boom, bringing a generalawareness of Latino music.

6. Drama radio programs will con-

tinue to spread among the non-com-mercial stations.

7. KCRW's widely respected"Morning Becomes Eclectic" will gocoast to coast via NPR.

8. O.J. after Rush? Why not? If thedefendant walks, look forO.J.Simpson to get a two-hour dailyslot on KFI.

9. The three-way battle betweenKFI, KABC and KMPC will leaveKABC in third place as more yuppiesand Generation Xers discover theallure of interactive AM radio.

10. How about a full-time discooldies station? It could be calledMirror Ball 98.
