WBZ cuts Leveille, Cuddy, Dyett, poss. Desmarais

[Dick Summer]

Thanks Kevin. I'm having fun doing the weekly podcast at 
www.dicksummer.com/podcast/latest. I'll be streaming the website soon, and 
I'm considering contacting the guys CBS just let go to join the fun. There's 
some pretty heavy duty talent out there wandering around now wondering what 
hit them. There's no money in it for now, but money isn't the only reason 
guys do radio...as you very well know. Dick Summer
