    While driving to work today, I tuned into KLIV to hear the local news, but they've replaced it with…read morecountry music. I knew this was coming, but figured with KGO also dropping news, they would of reconsidered, since they would pick up some new listeners. KCBS doesn't please everybody. KLIV had some really useful traffic reports, covering the expressways and local streets that the other stations won't even touch. Plus I will miss the secret sound contest! This is the most disheartening format change KLIV's made since they dropped their rock format years ago.

    Radio ad: "We won't give you the news in Benicia because, well, you probably aren't listening to…read moreus right now in Benicia, are you?" to which I always nod, "Of course not!" KLIV has fantastic coverage of bay area news. My wife is often surprised at my knowledge of local politics, local news, local events, and local vendors (via local advertisements). I know these things not because I subscribe to the Wall Street Journal, nor from reading the newspaper (I don't subscribe). I listen to KLIV every morning on my way to work. TIPS: * South bay traffic reports are every 7 minutes, and will tell you what freeway road sensors all over the bay area are picking up in the way of slow traffic, along with what the CHP is reporting in the way of accidents * At 8:57 a.m. they "dig to the bottom of the big stack of news stories" for funny, offbeat news (be listening between 8 and 9 for George Sampson to give you other offbeat news stories as he continues to dig all the way to the bottom) * Are you a foodie? Listen for Mr. Produce, Phil Cosentino, to tell you what fruits and vegetables are in season and what this year's crop tastes like.

    I used to be a DJ here from 1996 to 1998 and it was a great experience and still is a great station…read moreto listen to because of all the diverse music formats and shows the station had to offer featuring under represented music not found on commercial radio where I came across a lot of excellent music from a punk metal hard perspective as well as opened up my mind to other genres including jazz up to walking away with a production piece keepsake of my own. KSJS is a gateway and experience for those wanting to learn about broadcasting etc. and a great way to meet and work with good people. My passion was more audio over video and left with the basics of digital audio editing that can now be done with simple software on a home computer. For those at KSJS and however you are involved in the station enjoy your time there and get the most out of it. For those listening be open minded and stop judging the occasional belch because I got away with a lot more on A 2 to 6 am shift which would never have been possible on commercial radio and probably said at least one thing in the early am during a traffic report that probably was not ideal but not offensive. It was a wild time for me back in day meeting drunken rhythm Jazz and blues artists and being in close quarters with them laying down legal ids and liners from then station one of which was featured on a sports weekly segment because it was off the wall funny. Those days I do miss and wish I would have stayed involved longer but the real world called me in 1998 and I started my next chapter. Highly recommend the experience to SJSU students regardless of their major and to judgmental listeners, cut the station a break as you might not find this style of college radio or freedom anywhere else. Tune in online and phone in your requests and if it meshes with the DJs show the you might find it honored in 15 minutes or less as the technology is more instantaneous depending on your request. I wish KSJS well now and in the future with many years of longevity to come and yes it will change with history. Wild times in the 20th century and wild times today and KSJS covers it all. Support your local college radio station out there in San Jose. Peace out.

    You remind me of my dogs, in a good way - faithful, loyal, always a friend. You don't excite me…read morelike my wife does, you rarely get my blood pulsing. But you almost always put a smile on my face. I'm sorry to say that while you are first on my presets, you are usually the last to come to mind during my morning drive. In the political vein that we are in these days, the Bone is my Republican friend, KFOG is my Democratic associate, and you are the middle of the road buddy. This morning the BONE guys were rambling on about having their large, overweight intern do lap dances for other men in a thong (an American Idol controversy thing). Sorry guys, you are boring me. So I went to KFOG, but the music they were playing just didn't keep me interested. So I switched to KFOX and was greeted with Van Morrison's "Brown Eyed Girl" followed by "Sweet Emotion" and then "You Shook Me" (two of my favorite songs from Aerosmith and AC/DC respectively). That woke me back up for the rest of my drive. Greg Kihn may ramble on at times, but he can sure pull in some great guests from the rock world ("My love's in jeopardy, baby. Oooo-a-ooo-ooo."). He may be a has been in the rock world, and he talks to much in the morning. Probably the main reason I don't listen to them too much. Side note, his son Ry is a wiz on the guitar. But when the Sharks are playing, that's a different story. That alone gets KFOX a few stars. Only station in the area that carries the games. Just wish I got them better up in the East Bay, 98.5 out of Sacramento tends to interfere.

    Used to live kfox when it was actually based in San jose…read more They're studios are actually in Daly city..weird for a " south bay station" I checked with their GM and he emailed me. Also what happened to Joey in the morning? Replaced very quickly by Katrina Who may or may not even live in the Bay Area...
