    Probably going to be against the grain, but I think the idea is interesting.

    Thinking of like, the late late night where you probably don’t have a host and someone wants to have one since that’s what I like most about radio.

    If it’s treated as an experimental placeholder until they can support a host being in that time slot, I say go for it, line for me is drawn when they use that to replace hosts.

      The issue is, that’s the ideal spot for someone just getting into the business. Similar to a junior software engineer. If we start eliminating all the junior positions, it won’t be long before we have no one qualified for the senior ones.
