Jason Thomas
News from WXRT Radio (via Robert Feder)...
It’s over and out for Jason Thomas after more than 13 years at WXRT 93.1-FM. Monday marked his last night at the Entercom adult album alternative station as host of “The Big Beat.” He resigned his part-time position to accept a new job outside of the market. “Thank you for making my time at XRT so memorable,” he said. “I’ll always have a huge spot in my heart for the station, the city, and the people.” Thomas, who signed on as afternoon host in 2006, was cut back to weekends and fill-in in 2018. Starting next week, Ryan Arnold will host “The Big Beat,” which loses an hour and moves to a new time — from 11 p.m. to midnight Mondays.

Fox 32 Fires Rafer Weigel
Sorry to hear about this. Channel 32 has decided that Rafer couldn't continue at Fox despite being cleared of charges. I understand the decision, but I still feel bad for Rafer.
Robert Feder has the details.

Good News
It won't be the same without Neil Peart, but it will still be awesome.
Monday Morning Prediction. There will be a LEE/LIFESON PROJECT announcement this year. They will release a studio recording WITH guest drummers on the songs, UNTIL they decide who to tour with. These guys ARE NOT done yet.... @RushFamTourneys #RushFamily #LeeLifesonProject pic.twitter.com/VvTfldA8Ht
