Tyrone Johnson has been let go from 97.5 The Fanatic, marking another departure from The Best Show Ever?
He announced the news on social media Friday, saying, “It was a good run. I regret nothing.”
In an interview with The Inquirer, Johnson said he knew the exit was coming but was unsure of the timing. “I want to thank my coworkers and supporters. I’ll miss them,” he said, adding, “I’m excited for what’s next.”
The show quickly unraveled. Brody was cut in July 2023 and now works part-time at 94.1 WIP. Scordo was laid off in May 2024 during Beasley Media Group’s company-wide cuts.
The future of the afternoon slot is uncertain, though Bottalico remains under a multiyear contract. Program director Scott Masteller did not respond to inquiries. Speculation suggests Missanelli, who returned to the station in August 2024 to host middays with Bill Colarulo, may reclaim the afternoon slot.
Could not be happier. He was the most obnoxious person on Philly radio. Everything was race related, he set the callers up to be wrong AUTOMATICALLY so he could show his self-proclaimed "superior intellect". NEVER agreed w/ the callers either even if they said something he said. Just obnoxious and a DEI hire and Mikey Miss was the unfortunate recipient of that disastrous practice. Get Missanelli back to the 2-6 spot on T.V. And before any callers start on the race baiting, he was getting DESTROYED in the ratings even w/ the T.T. angle. If product sux, white, black, green or yellow you gots to go.
