Mr. Malone is annoying and "see ya" should have been left at the "other" station. I can not listen to 96.5 in the morning anymore. MIX has LOST another listner.
ClearChannel Radio and Buddy Scott--BIG MISTAKE-HUGE --that you took Roula, Ryan and Producer Eric off 96.5 to which I no longer listen.
Sam Malone sucks..I didn't listen to him on 104 and I won't listen to him on 96.5. You need to BEG Roula & Ryan & Eric to come back with a susbtantial raise to boot!!!!
I used to look forward to listening to R&R&E in the mornings on my commute to work. To get in my car and find someone I didn't know and instantly disliked had replaced them. I think clear channel radio has done a big disservice to its listeners by taking a great morning team that not only loved their job but cared about their listeners as well and have replaced them with some one who only cares about himself and his own opinion. dont get me wrong I gave him a listen and a chance to win me over but he definitely didn't do it....as a result 96.5 has lost a loyal listener
I have been a loyal listener to Roula Ryan and Eric for quite sometime and cannot believe that Clear Channel actually thinks Sam Malone is what Houston listeners want to hear in the mornings. Very bad move as I tried to listen and after the first 30 minutes became a channel surfer...something I haven't done in the mornings for a long time. I won't support MIX again until they give houston listeners what they want which is Roula Ryan and Eric. I don't think Clear Channel realizes what they have done
Roula, Ryan and Eric were great to listen to in the mornings. The fact that they really met on the the morning show is amazing. Their chemistry together really came through the airwaves. The fact that the powers that be at the radio station did not even show enough respect to let them tell thier listeners good bye says alot about that company. I look forward to the day that I can listen to the three of them again on the airwaves of Houston. BRING BACK THE BEST MORNING SHOW IN HOUSTON!
Roula, Ryan and producer Eric were an amazing and entertaining team. To replace them with someone who has a most def. AM talk radio style and team him up with someone who just doesn't seem like a good fit makes no sense. The Roula and Ryan morning show was so entertaining that having to wait to listen to them and what they were up to and have to listen to a song or two was bothersome. I've tried giving Sam Malone a shot. I'm done though. I hope the Mix realizes their HGUE mistake and brings them back before they move on to another station or city. BRING BACK ROULA, RYAN AND ERIC!
Obviously some jokers have posted some rather nasty things on this which defeats the purpose. I hate Sam too, but really would rather focus on how great Roula and Ryan were. I suggest anyone who loved the show forward this link to everyone they know.
Bring them back! They personified the personality of the station. Mr. Malone does not fit there. He was too old and didn't fit KRBE's music or typical listener either. I'm sure there's a place for him on the dial but not at 96.5 FM.
Roula, Ryan and Eric were great and refreshing, what a team. Sam Malone is arrogant and boring and the reason why I quit listening to 104 KRBE. As far as Natalie, sorry, she made a real bad choice teaming with Sam. The two of them don't click. They are BORING. Clear Channel/Mix 96.5, you not only acted in an unprofessional manner in regarding the manner in which you terminated Roula, Ryan and Eric; you obviously don't give a flying #@$% what the listners think. What a slap in the face. Bring Roula, Ryan and Eric back. NOW!! I no longer listen to 96.5.
Even on my days off I'd wake up and listen to Roula & Ryan, especially on Thursday. Now I refuse to listen to Mix in the morning. Bad idea ClearChannel. I hope that when you beg them back they will accept.

Sam Malone is awful. Roula and Ryan weren't my favorites but they are ten times better than Sam "See Ya" Malone. Wow. What a great catch phrase- "see ya". Gimme a break. Sam MAlone-puke.
I can't believe Clear Channel Radio could get rid of Houston's best voted morning team. Roula and Ryan were wonderful and such a blast to listen to every morning. How could they replace them with such an arrogant and outspoken Republican!!! He makes no efforts to hide his political views or opinions and is always bragging about himself-listeners don't want to hear his insecurites. I will never listen to 96.5 again, they obviously have other alternatives, which is not in the best interest of their listeners. So for 96.6-Bye Bye.
Sam Malone is the reason I quit listening to 104 about 3 or 4 years ago. R&R were a breath of fresh air on radio. Young, hip, vibrant and more importantly, topical. Sam Malone is spinning the same old crap he did on KRBE. So as I wrote in an email to the PD for Mix96.5, SEE YA! Time for a new station on my radio...
I can't believe they replaced Roula and Ryan with someone as horrible as Sam Malone he was yesterday's news back when I was in middle school if you ask me... please bring back the best morning show I have ever listened to...
Clear Channel is a horrible, monopolizing company that has absolutely no regard for it's staff or clients (look what they did to Rock 101). Hopefully R&R and Eric will be as fortunate as those DJ's and be on the air again soon. Good luck you guys!
It's only been a little over a week since Roula and Ryan were taken off the air and I miss their talk show so much. Sam Malone is a has been and I don't find him funny or interesting at all. Please bring them back!!!
I never knew how important Roula and Ryan were to me until I had to start driving 45 minutes to work. For now it is CD's. I pray they come back. That Sam guy just sucks!
I miss the playfullness of Roula and Ryan. Sam Malone is a major step backwards and I WILL NOT LISTEN. I urge anyone reading this to forward it to as many people as possible! Boycott that crap and make some heads turn. The only way to make them pay is to hit them in the pocket books.
I was shocked that Clear Channel would let go the very people that made your station #1. I refuse to listen to Mix 96.5 until you bring back Roula and Ryan.
I cannot believe that Clear Channel would replace Roula and Ryan with some old guy that laughs at his own not-funny, stupid jokes!! he has TWO shows....unbelievable!!!! ! Bring Rouls nad Ryan back!!!!
Sam Molone was ok on KRBE, but is old news now..listeners don't want a bunchof boring talk shoved down our throats! R&R were young and energetic,,, we like that and want it back!

I loved Roula & Ryan. I tried to listen to Sam Malone but he tells the most awful jokes and every co-host he has sounds like a laugh track. Why get rid of a great thing and replace it with something old and boring? I hope Roula & Ryan end up on some radio show in Houston--I'll definitely tune in!
I left town for 4 days, came back and thought it was a horrible joke. To take the most entertaining show in Houston Texas off the air and replace them with some old has been, is the strangest thing ever. I suggest someone e-mails the president of the company to let him know how upset we are. There is literally nothing for me to listen to in the car anymore. My commute is now unbearable. We have to bring them back!
How do we get someone higher up in the corporate chain to realize how outraged the listeners are in Houston Texas. THIS GUY SUCKS BEYOND BELIEF! Sam Malone is the worst goddamned thing I have ever heard. I'm done with that station!
I'm very rustrated with 96.5 for changing the morning DJs AGAIN. This is the third change in a few years and this one has caused me to remove 96.5 from my preferred channel selection buttons.
I was a loyal listener for over 10 years, and I have stopped listening to Mix 96.5. Sam Malone is boring. Bring back Roula, Ryan & Eric and I will be a loyal listener again.
WHAT IN THE HECK WERE YOU THINKING?!?! Sam Malone SUCKS!! Roula, Ryan & Eric were voted the best morning show in Houston and you take them off?! FOOLS!! I hated 104.1 and now I'm beginning to dislike 96.5. I've stopped listening in the mornings and I'm starting to not listen the rest of the day, because I can't stand the ads for Sam Malone. Natalie? She's a giggly bore!! Forced laughing is not impressive to me! BRING BACK ROULA, RYAN & ERIC & SOON!!
I stopped listening to 104 when Sam Malone was there. I'll stop listening to 96.5 for the same reason. Roula and Ryan were great comic relief in the mornings.
I can't beleive you got rid of Ryan and Roula for that annoying Sam Malone. I have completely stopped listening to this station because of it. Even when he isn't on I would have to hear him for advertisement. Get rid of him. Lost a long time listener.
Please bring Roula & Ryan back; I've changed stations because Sam Malone doese not have the same energy as Roula and Ryan had.
I really think that the radio station made a mistake to change DJs.
I am so glad to have found this petition. I have wrote Clear Channel several emails letting them know that they lost a long time lisnter when they ousted the R&R show and brought in Sam. I could relate to R&R and shared alot of their viewpoints. I voted for them when they were nominated best morning show. Mix 96.5 might have gained some new listners recently by bringing in Sam, but a lot of long time R&R morning show listeners have now said "SEE YA" to Sam. I personally have been boycotting 96.5 all together because I am so upset.
Oh come on!!! Roula & Ryan made me laugh. I don't have a problem with Sam but take him off the morning show. I want to hear laughter and music in the morning. If I want talk-show, I'll tune into all talk radio. Bring R&R back!
I was shocked to hear Sam Malone on 96.5 --- if I had wanted to hear him, I would've listened to 104. I removed him from my settings a long time ago. Really miss Roula, Ryan & Eric.
Roula is a hometown girl with hometown values. I like Ryan and Eric too. I won't be listening to 96.5 anymore. I with some of the others Sam Malone loves to hear himself talk.
Clear Channel... what WERE you thinking. Sam Malone is ho-hum and boring. Wasn't any good on 104 or Channel 2 either, why would you think he'd be good on 96.5. Bring Roula and Ryan back.
I can't stand to listen to Sam Malone EVERYTHING he talks about has to be sexual, or ends up down that road. He's NOT funny at all! His show is boring!
I just don't listen to Sam... I miss Roula & Ryan!! Their personalities were complimentary. Sam isn't horrible (IMHO) but there's no ying/yang interaction. Bad choice, Clear Channel...
Unfortunatly Clear Channel has done it again! They are now recyling DJ's and passing them off as if it were a choice of the listeners. They have no clue what the people of Houston Area want. Bring back R&R and Eric! "See Ya" will be a phrase that Mix will soon be sorry for hearing!
Count me in too!! I HATE Sam Malone - he talks WAY too much!!! I loved Roula and Ryan, I loved War of the Roses, I loved the Email help sessions, I loved EVERYTHING about Roula and Ryan and I love NOTHING about Sam Malone!!! I have NOT listed to 96.5 since I heard Sam Malone for 3 or 4 mornings the first week. Where's the music, Where's the fun? Where's Eric?????????
Roula is sweet and funny and was a joy to listen to in the mornings. Ryan I could take or leave. I CANNOT stand Sam Malone. He is why I stopped listening to 104 in the first place.
