  1. THANKS. You can bring back the other one now.

    Edgar Bergen graciously and gratefully accepted the greater popularity of Effie Clinker, Mortimer Snerd and Charlie McCarthy. Will the real Ashley be able to be that gracious when A.I. Ashley beats her in the ratings?

    1. AI is a total disconnect from personality radio. There is no reason to listen to radio anymore. There will never be another Lujack or those connections between the air talent and the listener. It’s over.
