Actress Whoopi Goldberg will hit the morning radio airwaves starting on July 31 with her new syndicated radio show called "Wake Up with Whoopi." You know, until I heard about this radio show the phrase "Wake up with whoopi" held entirely different connotations for me. Goldberg points out there aren't a lot of women hosting their own radio shows, and she hopes to give listeners something different. She's quoted as saying, "I haven't heard someone quite like me in the morning." Well, yeah, that is true, but isn't that actually a good thing? Aren't most people who listen to lame morning DJs usually thinking to themselves, "Well, at least it isn't Whoopi Goldberg?" Her new show will air on terrestrial radio only, there are no plans for her to take it to satellite radio.Whoopi on the radio

Kidd Kraddick is still the star of ClearChannel's morning syndication in my book.

This is GREAT! Whoopi on the Radio! What a concept!
Whoopi Goldberg is one the most intelligent individuals around. She makes you think. I am interested in hearing her point of view. Cant wait for the airing of her show.
This is such good news! A refreshing change from the culturally debasing antics of at least one nationally syndicated morning show that I can think of.

Whoopie versus Rush, what a concept! Two extremes, I will not be listening.
