The Don & Mike Show: Not With A Bang But A Whimper?

Oh man. I was worried this would happen. I've been listening to The Don & Mike Show for 14 years. I was pretty much prepared to let it go at the end of May.

The show hasn't been live for over 2 weeks due to vacation. They were supposed to return this week, so I wondered where they were, and now I read this from DCRTV.com:
Here's what we're hearing about the status of legendary "radio God" Don Geronimo at CBS Radio's WJFK-FM. He's pretty much "retired." However, he could still return for one more "knock it out of the ballpark" final show. But that's it. Originally, Geronimo had announced that his last show before retirement would be at the end of May. But rumors surfaced early this week about Geronimo's early departure when his spring "vacation" got mysteriously extended. Also, we're hearing that guy talker JFK may move up the start date on the Don and Mike replacement afternoon show, featuring Geronimo's longtime partner, Mike O'Meara, from its original June start date. We're hearing that CBS's DC suits are huddled in meetings today trying to decide their next move. Look for a new gameplan within the next week or two - while D&M "best ofs" air.
