Pearson gets to sleep in Sunday mornings
Wednesday, Nov 27, 2019 - Posted by Rich Miller
* I am a devotee of Rick Pearson’s Sunday Spin show on WGN Radio, but I’ve never once listened to it live. I mean, 7-9 on Sunday mornings? Nope. Hard pass. I need my beauty rest (desperately, even). Instead I listen to it online at my leisure.
Maybe I’ll get my first chance at listening to it live now, except if the Bears are playing the afternoon game…
The music of Ol’ Blue Eyes will air exclusively from 6:30 to 9 a.m. Sundays on WGN 720-AM, the Nexstar Media news/talk station announced Tuesday.
Starting December 8, David Plier will host the locally-produced showcase devoted solely to the classic tunes of Frank Sinatra, leading into “Dean Richards’ Sunday Morning” from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. […]
To accommodate the new addition, WGN will move “Steve Dale’s Pet World” to 5:30 a.m. Sundays and “The Sunday Spin: Politics with Rick Pearson” to 5 p.m. Sundays.

My wife and I have talked about going to church more regularly. No reason to skip now.

What does it mean that only Frank Sinatra could replace Rick Pearson?

Soccermom, WGN has a really old audience targeted for Sunday morning.

In his pick of 5s, it would seem a good VP guy would pick pm over am…

I appreciate his interviews and conversations so much. I once went to a forum he moderated that was broadcast live and thought he did a great job with that too. Glad he’ll be on at a more reasonable time.
