The only reason left to listen to Edge is the ska/punk show. Other than that it is the same 15 songs in an endless rotation. So I guess I will have to switch back and forth between John Holmberg.

Press release: "Chuck Powell has been fastened into mornings at Bonneville Adult Hits KPKX (98-7 The Peak)/Phoenix, filling the hole created when Scott Drake exited in September 2008. Powell, a 20-year industry vet with a decade of mornings under his belt, was last seen across the street doing the same shift at Riviera Alternative KEDJ (103.9 The Edge) until Adam Carolla arrived in April 2008. According to the press release that thudded into our inbox, Powell introduced himself to the Peak staff via an entertaining puppet show, then admitted, "Yes, I have done steroids in the past, but I was young and naïve. Please judge me for what I do from this point forward." Chuck is back!! He is now doing mornings at 98.7 The Peak!

WTF? Backwards? I just do not get it. The morning shows in PHX are CRAP. Carolloser was a corn piece stuck in that crap. None of these hacks have the talent that Chuck has for characters, story, prose and sheer entertainment value without having to always be in the toilet. (ie; the CRAP we have on all the other stations) Whatever BSJ. Whatever.

I moved out of state in 2006 to the middle of nowhere. I just got internet hooked up this week and first thing I did was hit 103.9.com to listen live and was looking forward to hear Chuck Powell again in the morning. I didn't see any reference to him on the site, so I googled the show and him and found this. I am so saddend. I am coming out to PHX again next week and was looking forward to The Morning Ritual. Adam's crap compared to Chuck Powell. The only thing 103.9 still has going for it is the Acoustic, live, & rare collection and the Ska/punk show... how sad. how very sad. I hope he lands somewhere where I can stream him. I just found out The Morning Ritual is gone… I moved out of state in 2006 to the middle of nowhere.
