Jeff Dubay says he's forced out at AM1500 in cost-cutting move

Sounds like he would have had money trouble even if not for the drugs. He has said he was making about $150k. A family on 150 ain't rolling multiple homes, boats on Minnetonka, luxury SUVs and the like.
 

I don't think it's been discussed in this thread, but Bob Sansevere and Tom Barnard have a relationship. Sansevere is the sports director on a morning show that Barnard hosts. It seems to be a conflict of interest (at best) for Sansevere to have written this article about Dubay and Barnard's son.

I don't care at all for Dubay's takes on the Gophers, but I do feel like people might be jumping to conclusions as to who is at fault in this latest disagreement. The other thing is talking about sports for a living is quite a privilege and you'd hope that Dubay (or anyone else) would appreciate a second (third?) chance to do just that.

It was Barnard's nephew, not his son. Tom Barnard said he and Dubay only spoke a couple of times. His involvement was limited, the only tie was that Dubay was broadcasting his podcast through Barnard's network.
 

Publicly burning bridges - especially when your job is to "communicate" with the public - is a really, really bad idea. Doobie can't seem to stop digging his own grave.

Exactly. Even if everything he said is true, be the better person and keep your mouth shut.
 






Can't wait to hear his Polar League volleyball preview show.
 


From the first sentence of the press release of Dubay joining the website - i would say it needs a lot of work.

Northland Sports Online is please to announce the addition of Jeff Dubay to our website in a positive roll which will add to the continuing growth of our website.

Did he have to go through a drug test for this gig?
 




He has gone from KFAN, to KSTP, to podcasts. Can the day be too far off when his new role will be texting me his thoughts on sports three times per day? Unfortunately, I will be paying even less than this podcast gig.
