To make sure we’re all on the same page, last week Ed posted this:

Dear Friends,

After 2 1/2 years on 98.3, March 29th will be my last WOW broadcast. Suffice it to say that the new owner, Cumulus Broadcasting, has other plans for the 7:00-8:00 pm time slot. I’m not sure whether the Fallon Forum will continue on another station, be available only online, or be discontinued altogether. We are literally in transition, and I will have an update for you next Monday. So, as we say in radio, “Stay tuned!”

It just doesn’t seem right that Rush Limbaugh continues to be allowed to broadcast all the garbage he wants while civility gets the corporate ax. We hope to learn soon what’s to become of Ed.

Here’s Ed’s message for this week:

Well, this is the last week of Fallon Forum broadcasts on WOW 98.3 FM. I am still working on exactly how this Phoenix rises from the ashes. I hope to announce that later this week.

Monday and Tuesday, as the U.S. Supreme Court begins to hear challenges to the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, I broadcast from Washington DC, interviewing members of Congress and key national health care leaders. I want to thank Dr. David Drake, Des Moines family psychiatrist/relationship consultant in private practice, for sponsoring Monday’s program and Dsr. Bill Barry and Lisa Banitt of Ames for sponsoring Tuesday’s program.

Wednesday, we talk criminal justice, taking a closer look at community-based corrections.  I’m still lining up guests, but want to thank Bill and Jean Basinger of Justice Reform Consortium for helping to sponsor the program.

Thursday, being the final broadcast of the Fallon Forum on WOW 98.3, it’s your show, folks. Any and all callers welcome on any and all topics.

So, join the conversation Monday – Thursday from 7:00-8:00 pm at 98.3 FM and online. Call-in at (515) 312-0983 or toll-free at (866) 908-TALK. You can download the Fallon Forum as a podcast, too.

Thanks! — Ed
