    I've moved out of state since his dismissal from 790, and can't find anything about him online.

    I enjoyed his show, and wonder if he's landed at another Houston station.

    So... where's Charlie Palilo??

    I think he's still under the no compete clause in his contract and cannot get a gig...for now. Not sure if there's a difference in the amount of time you must wait if you walk or like CP get unceremoniously histcanned without any notice...

    That makes sense. I hope he lands on his feet. He was special.

    I feel like his resume would be on a floppy disk.

    Haven't heard anything on him either. Still miss his show in the afternoons vs INNES.

    Charlie talked great baseball. Would love to see him have a gig by the time the Astros are in the World Series this year.

    All his correspondence is landline calls and fax machines.

    Most of the other shows are entertainment based...Not what I'm looking for. I tuned them all out.

    IIRC it's a year; I think LZ was gone that amount of time when he left 1560..
