CW Channel 69 will debut the "Frank & Wanda" show at 11pm every evening beginning on August 18th. The new program is setup like a "Best Of Wanda & Frank" type of show & will be condensed down into a 30 minute television show. With the increasing popularity of satellite radio, ipods, & quality competition from the likes of Steve Harvey (102.5 FM), Tom Joyner (104.1), 95.5 The Beat, & 107.9 FM, it's becoming clearer that commercial radio shows are forced to take greater steps to stay relevant even as more people these days are tuning in less. As more & more people become turned on by other mediums besides traditional radio it usually translates into less advertising dollars being spent at radio stations which in turn translates into less paid jobs & more interns slaving to pick up the slack. The partnership with CW Channel 69 & V-103 is already reportedly attracting advertisers to better increase the both media outlets' bottom line.

The show is to be reportedly recorded with 9 HD television cameras which in tests can pick up even the slightest of details. "I'm always camera ready" says Frank Ski. He also added that the HD cameras could even pick up bits of "dust" on his mustache. Needless to say he's going to have to make sure he cleans off the "Booger dust" & keep himself immaculate throughout the show.

Most of us here don't listen to radio much at all, but we want to know from the rest of you about your radio listening habits. Will y'all be watching? Does anyone listen to their show? If not who do you listen to in the mornings? Do you listen to satellite radio? Do you even listen to regular radio anymore? Do you even care?
