I totally agree that the station needs some diversity and to me that's not it in the staff. The Flames are great, and let's face it, that's why we're all here posting. But there are times of the year where there's no hockey. It wouldn't kill them to have some people hosting these programs who know about other sports and have conversations about them as well. I don't think they need segments focusing entirely on MMA or Tennis or Soccer or whatever, but how about a call-in show? I think one of the reasons that QR77 (or whatever it is now) is successful is because they have hosts who are thought provoking and they have people call in and offer up their own hare-brained schemes.
And before I get totally flamed, I know Overtime can be trying at times. But there are lots of topics and plenty of different sports that peoe could discuss. It doesn't all have to be Flames talk to be interesting and that might make the callers a little more diverse as well.
