Happy Valley felt different on the morning of Tuesday, June 30. And the change was not for the better, at least from my perspective. Folks tuning in to radio 1390 that day from 6 to 9 a.m. got national programming instead of the familiar voices of Jeff Byers and Gary Sinderson.
All seemed normal the day before when Byers and Sinderson concluded their WRSC show, “The Morning Guys.” But within 10 minutes of saying goodbye to their listeners that morning, they had another goodbye conversation with WRSC General Manager Andy Kreiser. Citing the financial impact of COVID-19, Kreiser informed the duo that, effective immediately, they were being let go.
