1560 – The Game launches Monday

After a summer of sports talk shuffling and speculation, the new sports/guy talk station KGOW-1560 launches on Monday.

Here’s the daytime lineup, courtesy of the 1560 The Game website:

6-10 John Granato
10-12 Richard Justice
12-2 Ken Hoffman
2-6 Sean and John

I didn’t include any later shows, because KGOW isn’t going to have any kind of nighttime signal for a while, so it’s really kind of moot.

It will be nice to hear Granato in the mornings again, as Houston’s current morning sports talk lineups are unlistenable (as is MOJO 950 KPRC in the mornings). Richard Justice has some great guests lined up for his launch. Ken Hoffman promises a great radio mystery guest on his first program (we hope it’s not the mystery pooper!) and at least one excellent sports guest. I have no idea what to expect from the Sean and John show, beyond some good sports smack from the Cablinasian (but they can’t be any worse than the Cynthia Hunt/Michael “Babe Pages” Berry fiasco on MOJO 950 KPRC last Friday or Rich Lord’s program on KILT-610 in the same rough time slots).

How long can four sports talk stations last in Houston?
