WBT is a right winged station, so don't expect any liberal views on this station. Each on air personality is on for a 3 hour time segment, with Rush Limbaugh being the main big time personality. But the local guys are pretty good & I enjoy listening to them more than Rush. The local guys will talk about both local & national topics, so you can tie it into your actual community. This station really is informing & gets some topics out there about Charlotte that no one else covers, such as the Charlotte Disturber. While I may agree with most of their discussions, I still do take up some argument in what they have to say, but that makes for good radio. You don't want your listeners always agreeing with you.

They'll flip from Michael Jackson to Kelly Clarkson and follow it with Elton John and Prince. This weekend was an all 80s weekend and the tunes were excellent though perhaps a little heavy on Billy Joel (who I like but can be over played). This evening as I drove to and from the store, the Romantics, Madonna and Cutting Crew. Yes, a lot of anything going here. WLKO is part of the iHeartRadio network.

"The best music ever recorded."…read more Tooling around Charlotte this morning to get my errands done, I realize that I've never reviewed my favorite radio station. Rare on the breaks and the music in between is excellent. Bob Seger. The Police. The Eurythmics. A Sunday morning "Deep Cut" radio program and a Saturday morning "acoustic recordings" program. Excellent stuff. Keep it up. "Our friends call us... The Ride."

a very good station one of my favorites is a fan of deep cut vault style classic rock. however I…read morenoticed over the last year or sohas Iraq with the ride many times do a lot of stuff down around Gastonia Trucking in and out of there Trucking across 85 a lot we're doing this Trucking gig for almost 30 years now Long haul Rock and roller... there's been a little bit of a change in the format and the music selection is kind of not quite what it was. don't get me wrong it's still rocks balls to the wall for the most part just a little bit of change though can be noticed as a long time listener for Monday first came on the air back in the early 00s I believe. compared to if you look back when the station first began some more pop stuff is starting to seep in slowly. I mean Duran Duran really?? although being from Chicago I cannot deny the fact that my home station 97.1 The Drive is the same kind of way.. it all depends on who owns the station nowadays. But as a long-haul truck driver I could say there are three great stations and indeed that I love to even just log on to sometimes and listen live to. I have trouble with radio apps so a lot of times in areas where I am but if I have a Wi-Fi I will just go right to the station and listen live even like somewhere around the country. the ride, the drive, and the original 50 year old powerhouse that's never change format never Back Down been through changes but never stop rocking 94.7 The mighty KSHE 95 out of St Louis. being from Chicago and people ask me what would you listen to those are the three I would choose but the ride is still very enjoyable and has a good strong signal you pick it up quite a ways away and your rack with it for quite the way so it's still a good thing compared to a lot of the garbage that you can choose on the radio but personally for me I have just noticed that more and more though some of the format changes to the pop kind of stuff of the 80s that you really wouldn't consider back when it first started and they were more heavy deep cut. Just classic rock but the good Vault stuff

Sometimes, the news shows seem to try so hard to be "different" and "hip" and "young" that it feels really contrived; however, when it works, it really works. The folks on the various local news shows have great chemistry, and it can be fun to observe their interactions. Sometimes, though, their antics become the focus of the program, and not the news or the commentary. I go back and forth. It's kind of like a train wreck, though, in that I can't stop watching. I'll watch the local news programs just so I can debate whether or not it's awful or funny or fun or horrid...and I've been watching it for about a year now, debating. I guess what they are doing is working, though, as I"d never deign to watch local news programming anywhere else. I hope somebody else reviews these guys, as I'd like to hear what you think...

It's…read moreone of the few stations I can actually name some anchors & other local "celebrities" that host some of the local shows. The Edge is a show hosted by Brotha Fred from 96.1 & the beautiful Morgan Fogarty. It's a news show with a young, humorous flair to it. Other than their crazy weatherman, the normal newscast isn't anything special & I tune in to a couple other stations for the local news.
