On my Radio

Radio is important to most people who like to stay abreast of what is going on in their city such as events, news and traffic. What's radio with out a great personality to keep you tuned in? Well WPGC 95.5 have made some changes since the longtime morning show radio host Donnie Simpson left last month. The big shocker was when Tigger of the Big Tigger in the Den announced last week that he would be leaving his afternoon show. However management made the executive decision to bring Baltimore native singer Lil Mo on as the afternoon host. Her show started on Monday March 15, she took the reigns(and she has done an awesome job so far) of hosting the aternoon show. Today at 5:55 p.m. there was a BIG announcement to be made and it resulted in BIG Tigger becoming the new morning host on WPGC 95.5. Great things are happening at WPGC in 2010, Job well done!

Wake up to Big Tigger in the morning and get off of work with Lil Mo in the afternoon!

Donnie Simpson bids farewell to WPGC

Today marks a sad day in radio, the green eyed, smooth talking, handsomely brown skin Donnie Simpson says good bye to all his listeners after 17 years on his morning show with WPGC 95.5 FM. Donnie Simpson's career in radio started 32 years ago, so yesterday's show consisted of telephone conversations with celebrity friends such as Bob Johnson(founder of BET) who said "Donnie you are a pioneer in this business, Also Debra Lee (the CEO of BET) spoke of her relationship with Donnie, when he was a host on BET's Video Soul. She stated "there will never be another like him in radio". Others included the illustrious Ms. Dorothy Height a civil rights activist and a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc., and R&B singers John Legend, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder and rapper Wyclef Jean. DC's own Raheem DeVaughn and Chuck Brown stopped by the station to wish Donnie the best in his future endeavors. WPGC held a farewell celebration at the station to send Donnie off in a great way. Lunch was held at one of DC's landmark restaurant Ben's Chili Bowl from 12pm-2pm and lunch was on Donnie.
