Fresh Listen: Kincaid & Dallas
Posted: 12 Oct 2021 09:00 AM PDT
https://radioinsight.com/ross/213837/fresh-listen-kincaid-dallas/
WKHX Atlanta morning show co-host J.J. Kincaid has a lot of industry
respect and goodwill. Hes been considered a “jocks jock” since his Top 40
work at KDWB Minneapolis and WHTZ (Z100) New York. Kincaid has been a
consistent presence in social media, particularly as a calming voice for
personalities caught up in the industrys downsizing of the last year. He
is the moderator of the self-explanatory Facebook group “Oh Damn . . . That
Song.”
Kincaid had his own period of job-hunting angst to draw on after leaving
his first morning job at KPTT Denver. But two years ago, Kincaid and
morning host Dallas were tapped when the longtime WKHX (Kicks 101.5)
Atlanta reimaged as “New Country 101.5.” On Monday, Oct. 11, theyll debut
on 25 Cumulus stations replacing Westwood Ones current show Paul Koffy.
We took a Fresh Listen to the show as heard on October 7 on WKHX. Between
6-7:30 a.m., bits included:
On the “Dallas Dish” segment: Blake Shelton jokes about Ariana Grande
implying he was old on “The Voice”; Kelsea Ballerini has an upcoming poetry
book; tickets are available to the general public for next months CMA
Awards; Britney Spears wants to direct a movie, like “Kill Bill” (“Ill see
that one” says Kincaid). The Apple news that was teased in the last break
is that “Its the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” has been readded this year,
due to viewer demand. The next teaser is for an upcoming story about Burger
King. (“I dont know if they can legally do this.”)
The Burger King story is about the introduction of Ghost Pepper Chicken
Nuggets, only available by downloading the BK app. Co-host Garrett
speculates that they wont be really spicy. Brooks & Dunn, Travis Tritt,
and Elvie Shane are in town that night for the “Reboot 2021” tour. “Lets
get them before the concert so we can all suffer,” says J.J. Dallas asks
whether theyll have Impossible Nuggets as well.
There are a lot of teasers on the show. The answer to “how does your
mailman get revenge” is the story about the mail carrier who was caught
urinating on a particular mailbox, then told to finish his shift.
Producer Amanda has derided somebody on TV for wearing “2017 fashion.” That
comment wounds J.J. who shops at Wal-Mart and whose current $40 shirt is a
splurge. “When was your last time in a department store?” asks Dallas.
“About five or six years ago,” says J.J., who believes that based on the
Wal-Mart displays, Hawaiian shirts will be back in style this fall.
On this mornings “But Wait, Theres More” segment, the team members
stories are:
The Sandy Springs policeman who had to deliver a baby on the side of the
road. Dallas says that she could probably deliver a horse, but not a human;
Kelloggs and Wendys are teaming up for Frosty-flavored cereal;
A national park in Alaska has named the winner of “Fat Bear Week” (adorable
bear pictures are posted on Facebook and Instagram);
The man who had his pants stolen by muggers who werent content to take his
wallet only.
On this mornings “My Little Secret,” the callers confession is that
instead of going to multiple farmers markets because his wife wants
locally sourced produce, he goes to the supermarket and transfers the
produce into a burlap bag. But he cant remember if he removed the labels.
On the previous day, the topic was a woman who broke off an engagement,
then found out that she was still her fiancées emergency contact when the
hospital called her to make a decision about organ donation. (Fortunately,
it never came to that.)
The team starts the topic of
things-that-allegedly-happened-to-a-friend-of-a-friend with the urban
legend about getting a staph infection from touching the phones at a
cellphone store. That leads to soliciting listener calls about whether
youve ever had anything supernatural happen at Halloween haunted houses.
The morning shows daily recap podcast is posted here.
