Why Tina Dalpiaz is no longer on “The Large Morning Show In the Afternoon”

Like I said a few years back when Karen Vail left the show, I’m a big fan of Frank O. Pinion and the Large Morning Show in the Afternoon, currently on KTRS 550 AM in St. Louis. It was announced last Thursday (10/4/12) that another player, Tina Dalpiaz, was leaving the show. Frank discussed Tina’s departure in […]

Game Seven

By all accounts I shouldn’t be writing this. Even almost 16 hours later, I am still struggling to believe the comeback(s) that the 2011 Cardinals pulled off in Game 6 of the World Series. The Texas Rangers should have woken up hung over from their post-game celebration. They had the Cardinals on the ropes multiple […]

Frank O. Pinion Friday Absences

While the Large Morning Show in the Afternoon is not as good on Friday afternoons when Frank is out, it is still listenable. I’ve been wondering if the rumors I had read were true. I had read that he was visiting his father in San Diego. But while browsing the show Facebook page, I saw […]

This Week in St. Louis Sports

This was going to be a post about Albert Pujols and his stalled contract negotiations. I was going to give a compelling and well thought out argument that the Cardinals will be just fine without him. But then the Cardinals suffered a massive loss with the season (plus) ending injury to the Horse of the […]

In Honor of a St. Louis Holiday: Opening Day with Harry Caray

The home opener in St. Louis is practically a holiday. No one gets anything done as anticipation of the impending season distracts everyone from St. Louis from even a modicum of real work. In honor of that, I bring you Harry Caray, sort of. Go Cards!

Dear St. Louis Blues: Please finish your games!

Dear St. Louis Blues: I love you. I really do. You’ve been my hockey team for a long time. I’ve put up with a lot of mediocrity. I’ve put up with those God awful jerseys that had way too much red in them. For a time, I bought into the notion that simply making the […]

St. Louis Blues Power Play Dance

I had an opportunity to go to a couple Blues games last week. It was a playoff atmosphere and both games ended in a victory for The Note. What was also intriguing was the dance that a good majority of the Scottrade Center would do before a power play.

How to Automatically Download Audio from “The Morning After” on KSLG 1380 AM in St. Louis

I am a large fan of the radio program “The ITD Morning After” on 1380 AM in St. Louis. 1380 AM has a terribly weak frequency. To compensate, the audio content from each show is put up daily on www.insidestl.com. (Sidenote, I’m a believer that every radio program ought to be available online. This would […]

Karen Vail’s Replacement

Many of you have been highly interested in where Karen Vail has gone from The Large Morning Show in the Afternoon on KTRS 550 AM. You can read about that here. It seems as if the period of try outs for Karen’s spot is over and that Tina Dalpiaz won the job. Though she seems […]

Why Karen Vail is no longer on “The Large Morning Show in the Afternoon”

I’m a big fan of Frank O. Pinion, currently on KTRS 550 AM in St. Louis. He’s a radio genius. One of the players, Karen Vail was let go last week. Frank offers his explanation in an audio file (see below). I commend him for many reasons. Right now, I commend him most for the […]
