Drew and Mike are back on the WRIF!

June 27, 2009

That’s right, back in Detroit on WRIF 101.1 FM on July 13, 2009! Drew Lane was offered a chance to host is own show in the afternoon or go back to mornings with Mike, and he chose the latter.

Jamie Samuelsen will not stay on the show. He may stick around for a few weeks, but look for the old Drew and Mike show to kick back in gear after the transition. No word on what Jamie will do, but look for him to stay with the WRIF or Greater Media in a different role.

Drew was offered his own show at almost every major Detroit station, and turned them all down. He was offered a seven figure deal to replace Jay and Bill at WKRK, but rejected it.

I have no idea how much WRIF is paying Drew, but with the absence of Arthur Penhallow a huge chunk of money was freed up that will probably be heading Drew’s way.

Keep checking the “Drew and Mike Archive” on the right for full episodes and clips of the old Drew and Mike show, plus the new one come July 13th!

  5. I love that Drew is back, but I am dissapointed that Jamie won’t stick around. How about Jamie Samuelsen replaces Jay and Bill.


  6. I saw a seagull take a huge dump on Mike’s piper arrow


  7. It was good hearing Drew back on the air today. He was on fire and Mike could barely keep up. I hope they get back and start doing some prerecorded comedy bits again.


  8. Glad Mike and Drew are back together, they should have kept Jamie and dumped Mark & Mike. Both are terrible on interviews.
