To my best recall, Mr. Jennings was the News Dir. of KXL. |

Brian was the PD who hired me at KXL in 1986. (His title was technically Operations Manager) He left in August of 1988 to become Program director of KING-AM. (Jeff Grimes was News Director at KXL when I was there. He became PD when Brian left)I believe Brian replaced Larry Roberts at KXL, moving from the ND gig. |

Many years ago...around 1990 maybe....I ran into the sales manager of KXL at a computer parts/service place on the corner of Airport Way and 148th and we had a discussion. He said he would love to have both Rush Limbaugh and Dr. Laura because they were easy sells at the time and he could do well with them. |

Didn't Jeff and Brian put Jim Bickel on the air at KXL? |

To answer two questions in one. It was Larry Roberts who most likely hired Lars (his first KXL gig) & Jim Bickel. Larry was PD at the time. |

Tom: Yes! Your probably right. Lars at the time wasn't doing a talk show. He was the afternoon news guy with Alan Budwill 3-6pm. Lars was hired by KXL on 2-18-80. |
