I think they're saying that B&G's 1 p.m. hour is so strong that their average ratings from 1-6 beat 1000's from 1-6, but 1000's 2-6 beats 670's 2-6. It is a little clumsy.

Technically afternoon drive is supposed to be 3-7, fwiw.

Yeah, gotta appreciate what Mully and Hanley have been doing. They realize that most people are not on Twitter and do not care about the things Twitter cares about (social issues, journalist slapfights, NBA minutiae).

I think Twitter has been harmful to journalism as a whole. It turns it into a thought echo chamber.

Great show

Yup

1000’s second midday program, Carmen and Jurko, occupy the airwaves between 12p-2p. That means they go head to head against Spiegel and Parkins for 1 hour and opposite The Score’s afternoon show Bernstein and Goff for an hour. During the 12p-2p hours, The Score was ahead by a little more than a point.

Just talk sports. Don't try to save the world, and don't make up stories.

WSCR did a 3.6 overall in July, but I cannot for the life of me find mid-day or afternoon drive breakdowns anywhere.

Bernstein and Goff #1 in the ratings! Well done!

Were they really # 1, or did Cub games in that slot artificially boost them?

If I had to guess, the Cubs are responsible for the 3.6-3.7 overall shares we see. Because we know MVP is slugging it out with WSCR in the key demo time slot ratings (or at least was for the last book), but overall MVP is at a 1.6.

The competition is always fierce in the windy city between 670 The Score and ESPN 1000 and the summer book was no exception. This quarter belonged to The Score as the station placed 3rd overall M-SU 6a-Mid with just under a 5 share. 1000 finished 15th for the full week with slightly over a 3 share. Given the power of the Cubs though, that’s not a big surprise. Once again 670 led the way in mornings, with Mully and Hanley nearly doubling Mike and Mike. M&H were 3rd with just under a 6 share. M&M produced a 3 share. In middays, The Score’s team of Parkins and Spiegel got some great news, finishing seven tenths of a point ahead of David Kaplan and the first hour of Carmen and Jurko‘s show (670 and 1000 schedule their shows differently). The Score was 6th between 9a-1p. ESPN 1000 was 9th. Where ESPN 1000 received its biggest win was in PM drive between 2p-6p. Waddle and Silvy finished tied for 1st with just over a 5 share. The Score’s team of Bernsein and Goff were three tenths of a point behind in 4th. One item to point out, Bernstein and Goff’s show is an hour longer though than Waddle and Silvy’s so if you measure their entire 1p-6p program the news is slightly different, the two stations are even during those hours at just under a 5 share. Nonetheless, Waddle and Silvy have been rolling in 2017.

Hopefully, this trend continues and Bernstein gets a new partner. I didn't listen to Speigel and Goff very much but I don't recall Goff being this horrible in the midday show. No?

The Score now ties with MVP in the ratings for the Score's afternoon drivetime slot, 1-6p. With the Cubs, with an extra hour of show over the MVP drivetime team, Bernstein and Goff cannot win a ratings battle with their direct competition.

Jason has been moving souls...up the dial to WMVP.
