Just checked Wikipedia-Dick Bartley turned 70 in July & he started his radio career in 1969 when he was eighteen-That leads me to believe that he will retire.

Was just going to post something but saw it'd been done.
Wishing Dick well in retirement. Enjoyed his shows over the years and he'll be missed. Thank you for sharing your love of oldies music, the 1950s through the early 1990s, with us.
I'm wondering if some of the now soon-to-be former affiliates will pick up any number of available classic hits/oldies shows? I'd guess for the classic hits stations, one choice might be Nina Blackwood's "Absolutely 80s," for instance.

Scott Shannon's "America's Greatest Hits" would also be a viable option for those affiliates that used to carry Bartley's programs.

Turned out that a lot of the affiliates went with Steve Goddard. Some went with Gary Bryan. WRIP went with Nina Blackwood.
WQMV, which aired Dick Bartley three times a week, went with Dick Clark on Friday, an additional AT40 70s on Saturday & Steve Goddard on Sunday.
Station is still airing Dick Bartley promos.
WKWN is still airing Dick Bartley shows as fill ins when sports aren't available.

WQMV must have their own Dick Clark library, as those replays went away in 2020.
I know a few stations went with Time Warp, even though it's a different style show, since it's United Stations.

I live in Southwestern Connecticut-"America's Greatest Hits" airs on WCBS-FM in New York every Sunday-Host Scott Shannon does morning drive on CBS-FM.

By the way,"AGH" is distributed via United Stations,which was Dick Bartley's former syndicator.
