Properly that didn’t take lengthy.
Only a couple weeks after 98.5’s Fred Toucher mentioned he would “never” speak about his ex co-host Wealthy Shertenlieb once more, Toucher was again at it.
Shertenlieb’s Boston radio present on 100.7 WZLX was canceled a pair weeks in the past after solely a five-month run. The scores for “The Rich Shertenlieb Show” had been constantly down within the basement.
Then Shertenlieb on Wednesday claimed that his now-canceled present was making progress earlier than iHeartMedia ended it.
“Just received the ratings for our final full week on the air, and couldn’t be happier to report that The Rich Shertenlieb Show took WZLX mornings from 14th place to Top 5 in a matter of months,” Shertenlieb posted.
“Congrats to the best show crew- Ted Johnson, Michael Hurley, Emerson Lotzia, Kenny Young, and Jojo Benjamin,” he added. “And the biggest thanks to everyone who made the switch. Thank you, we love and miss you all.”
Shertenlieb’s publish drew loads of criticism on-line, and Toucher dragged him for it in the course of the 98.5 The Sports Hub morning present “Toucher and Hardy” on Thursday.
“I’m just so glad I don’t work with him anymore,” Toucher mentioned. “Because it was bad enough when he was putting garbage tweets up about our ratings when they were good… he’s obviously spiraling. There’s nothing more I can say about it, like it’s such an embarrassment.”
“He’s embarrassed himself,” Toucher added. “And again, the guy has learned absolutely nothing, like zero humility.”
Slimy… snaky,” Toucher added. “I just can’t stand him.”
Simply obtained the scores for our closing full week on the air, and couldn’t be happier to report that The Wealthy Shertenlieb Present took WZLX mornings from 14th place to High 5 in a matter of months.

Toucher took a victory lap earlier this month when Shertenlieb misplaced his job. Toucher known as him a “backstabber” who “does not tell the truth.”
“I can’t imagine he gets another job in the market, so I’ll never talk about him again,” Toucher mentioned on the time.
Shertenlieb, who was on 98.5 for a few years earlier than splitting up with Toucher, launched the sports activities present on the traditional rock station in Might — together with co-hosts Michael Hurley, Ted Johnson and others.
The scores for his present ended up being brutal.
“After five months, The Rich Shertenlieb Show will no longer air on WZLX,” Shertenlieb posted earlier this month. “To say that I’m disappointed is an understatement.”
“… Just over two months into the show, management decided to alter the format,” he added. “They wanted music, I did not. However despite my disagreement about the decision, I agreed to move forward and music was added… Thank you to iHeart for the opportunity. Just because we didn’t have the same vision doesn’t mean I don’t thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me a chance to assemble the team I’ve always wanted to work with.”
Shertenlieb’s present on the traditional rock station was the third sports activities speak morning present out there — attempting to compete in opposition to 98.5’s “Toucher and Hardy” and WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show.”
