Evening slot - that's a pretty drastic move. I wonder if it's because Thom is too diplomatic. He doesn't call anyone names or insult anyone. He doesn't create drama, only relays information and that in itself can be it's own outrage. Most radio hosts try to incite some kind of strong reaction by the way they talk and the words they choose. Thom really doesn't do that. I like him for that.

Maybe they needed someone more provocative. I don't know the guy they're putting in his time slot but maybe he fits that mold better.

That's too bad. I don't hardly ever listen to the radio at night.
