I miss Roula & Ryan so much!!! I loved hearing about Ryan's daughter Faith and Roula's dating stories (and let's not forget her Greek family!!!) The new guy (I am so disgusted I can't even mention his name - oh no!!! I just got a visual) is horrible!!! Bring back R&R. We love you guys and miss you!!!
sam malone's morning show is a bust - and what's up with those billboards picturing an obviously "airbrushed" sam? what a waste of money!!
roula & ryan can find a better station - good luck to them.
WHEN I TOOK MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL I WOULD HERE ROULA AND RYAN AND THEY ARE SO COOL. I MISS EVERY TOPIC OF THE SHOW I LOVE THOSE GUYS INCLUDING ERIC! THEY MADE DRIVING FUN
I am thoroughly convinced that the people that run mix are completely insane. Who in their right mind could listen to Sam and think that is a better show. IT JUST PLAIN SUCKS! You know who else sucks? The idiots that made this decision. I urge everyone to e-mail the CEO of the company. His name is John Hogan. His e-mail address is: johnhogan@clearchannel.co m
Make sure to givee them your name and an e-mail address tehy can reach you at. These morons think that we are just a bunch of cranks. You have to show them we are serious!
My guess is the ratings for that horrible Sam show will be terrible. Hopefully the ginat kick-back that Sam paid his boss will be enough for him to live on, because after the ratings come out there will be a few more firings. I just wish we had Roula and Ryan back. We are the ones that suffer because of how twisted and corrupt that company is. Hopefully someone is going to bring them back!
I have always been a channel surfer until I started listening to Roula, Ryan and Eric in the mornings. I was so upset when they took them off of the air now I'm back to channel surfing because I'm not crazy about Sam Malone.
If I wanted "talk radio" I'd tune it to 740AM... Mornings just are not the same anymore.. hmmm......
Dean & Rog?? or.......
Hudson/Harrigan and/JimBob?? What to choose??

I've lived in Houston all my life and have never listened to this *Sam* person. Knocking Roula & Ryan off the air to replace them with this guy only means I will no longer listen to your station, morning or otherwise.
What an awful way to treat your loyal listeners. I no longer listen to 96.5 because of the lousy way Clear Channel ditched a great morning team. Bring back Roula & Ryan & Eric!!!!
I am very disappointed that my two favorite radio hosts have been taken off the air. Roula and Ryan would get me going every morning. I have since taken you off my radio dial and refuse to listen to 96.5 at any time of the day. What you did to the faithful Roula and Ryan listeners was unforgiving.
I love Roula and Ryan and originally stopped listening to KRBE because of S.M. I still can't stand him!!!! Please bring back R&R. I had to write on my window, Radio Sucks in Houston!!!
I also have stopped listening to 95.6 since Roula, Ryan and Eric were pulled off the air. I was one of many who stopped listening to the 104 Sam Malone show when I found the R&R show. I doubt you'll bring them back to 96.5 but I do hope your ratings suffer from replacing them with Sam. I'll follow Roula Ryan and Eric to whatever station they end up in Houston.
i have stopped listening to 96.5.. i loved the roula & ryan show.i listened to it every morning while i took my daughter to school & went to work. sam malone sucks ..he is a complete idiot & not funny.. as long as roula & ryan are gone i will not listen to that radio station.
Roula and Ryan were the best. Roula has the best radio voice and is so fun to listen to in the morning...i used to look forward to waking up in the morning and driving to work, listening to her. Sam Malone is the reason I stopped listening to 104, as everyone else here has already said. And Natalie is the worst radio voice I've ever heard (no offense), but there's really no point to her...she's actually quite annoying in the morning. And the music is just awful...overall Sam is not what I want to listen to in the morning. I was shocked when I heard his voice that first morning and I had just known something strange was going on from too much noise, in the morning, rather than Roula's soothing voice....I miss Roula and Ryan. Please bring them back very very soon.
Bring back Roula and Ryan! I used to not listen to morning talk shows but they were awesome and I looked forward to their show. I don't listen to the station anymore.
Sam and Natalie have no chemistry, its obvious and boring to listen to them! I tried to listen and couldn't because they annoy the every living crud out of me. I need to be woken up in the morning traffic, and instead they put me to sleep! I miss Roula and Ryan and CC/Mix 96.5 needs to put them back on!
I have been depressed with morning radio ever since I lost Roula, Ryan, and Eric. I have resorted to listening solely to my IPod (how boring)! Houston needs this wonderful team somewhere on the dial!!!
I dislike Sam Malone and his annoying partner. Talk about a lame morning show.
I stopped listening to it as soon as I found out R&R were taken off the show. I refuse to listen to 96.5 until they bring back R&R. That was a stupid decision Clear Channel made.
how does that makes since to take off roula, ryan and eric when they were the best thing to happen to 96.5. put them back so they can wake me up and make me smile in the mornings.
My wife and I listened to Rula and Ryan in the morning when I would drive her to work. We really enjoyed the show. We look forward to listening again to them sometime soon.
You have taken off a great team and hopefully will suffer a great drop in your ratings. If you were so concerned maybe you should have listened to the show to hear the admiration Houston felt for those three! Many left 104 because of Sam and now we are all leaving 96.5 because of him. I will follow Roula & Ryan (and Eric) wherever they go! C-ya 96.5
I hate Sam M what the hell did
you guys just do.
I love R&R.
I would also like to inform you
guys that I know for a FACT that
I’m not alone.
Rula and Ryan if you happen to read this
I miss you guys
And so dose Houston.
I refuse to listen to Sam Malone. He is an idiot with no sense of humor at all. I took 96.5 off my set stations completely. BRING BACK Roula, Ryan, and Eric
From what I understand Roula/Ryan were taken off the air and replaced by Sam because of ratings. Well, I find that very hard to believe! Sam has NEVER had the following or as loyal of fans that Roula/Ryan/Eric had and still have. I just plan out stopped listening to 96 cuz Sam is sooo boring. The female he has on with him comes across as being just plan stupid, having nothing interesting to offer. The company that picks up Roula/Ryan/Eric will have a gold mine and great ratings!! They are a smart business investment.
I must tell you when Roula and Ryan took over I was not all that pleased but soon grew to like them. Sam Malone just never got my vote I started listening to 96.5 in the morning because I just never could deal with Sam's voice something about his voice just gets on my nervs. I thought I could still listen to you at a later time but you guys only talk about Sam and make it sound as if he made 96.5 what it is or should I say what it was because like so many others you lost another listener.
I can't believe 96.5 replaced R&R with Sam Malone! I didn't listen to 104 because of him. Now I won't be able to listen to 96.5. I'll just keep waiting for Roula and Ryan to show up at another radio station.
I can't stand Sam Malone, that's why I started listening to Roula and Ryan a few years ago. It was a big mistake to bring Sam Malone to 96.5. Didn't he just drop his morning show at 104 to pursue other avenues. Guess that didn't work out for him. Wonder why? He sucks!!
Sam Malone?? HUGE MISTAKE!!! Bring back Roula, Ryan, and Eric! Mornings aren't the same without them. I TRIED listening to Sam Malone and Natalie but they make me want to go back to bed!!!
I moved to Scotland a year ago, but I still love listening to Mix live through the website when I have a chance. I was appalled when I opened up the website today and saw Sam Malone's face grinning at me! I quit listening to Sam Malone several years ago when I switched from KRBE to Mix, and before I moved across the Pond, I listened to Roula and Ryan religiously every morning on my way to work. Why CC insists on switching morning show personalities on 96.5 seemingly every two years is beyond me. 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it' is a phrase that the suits in the boardroom need to listen to before they alienate more listeners. Stop screwing with one of the only decent radio stations left in Houston, and bring back Roula and Ryan!
I started listening to RR 2 years ago on the ride to work.I chose to change over to the RR Show in the mornings because of their continuous whit and charm especially about their city!! Eric was a bonus to the show, I am now outraged that you have offended us listeners to Sam and Natalie. Sam is completely offensive to me and I am in the age group you say was the cause of the change. I have now gone on to another morning show, I monitor the RR website in hopes of learning their new home. What you have failed to understand is that most Houstonians live in their vehicles, their morning radio show is critical to the outlook for the day; unfortunately you have made a critical mistake in the "revamping" of the morning show. I truly hope you can see your mistake and act on it quickly before the audiance totally abandons you.
Roula and Ryan are the best... Sam Malone is boring and OLD! Roula and Ryna are young, hip and have that touch of panache that makes their show wonderful! Bring them back!!!
WHat happened? Who is this dork "wanna-be" on my radio. I will not listen to mix anymore...who ever had this idea has NO idea what is going on out here in Houston. VERY BAD MOVE!!!! patty
I have been listening to the Roula and Ryan show on Mix 96.5 on my way to work for years. Now I have had to change stations because Sam Malone bores me.
I stopped listening to Sam Malone seven years ago - why would I want to hear him now? The Roula, Ryan and Eric trio was so much more interesting than the "one dj plus sidekick" radio show formula.
Gigantic mistake getting rid of Roula, Ryan & Eric. They were great, they made my daily drive to work bearable. I tried to give Sam a chance, but he puts me to sleep. I have swithced radio stations, for the morning. Bring them back!!!!
Bring back Roula and Ryan!! Sam Malone is boring, old and creepy. Natalie is annoying and after giving the show a couple of days we now refuse to listen to 96.5 in the morning. Get Roula and Ryan back on air.
I leave town for a few weeks and come back to find Sam The Dweeb on the morning show instead of the remarkable team of Roula & Ryan & Eric? Sam Malone cannot bring in the same audience base that Roula & Ryan had, No Way! Clear Channel made a terrible mistake.
Huge mistake to get rid of R&R! I can't stand to listen to Sam. He is so boring they have to play that horrible background music to fill in the silence....ugh.
Nothing currently on Houston radio compares to Roula and Ryan! I can't wait to hear them on the air again. Whoever picks them up has my undying loyalty!
All I have to say is..."See Ya" to 96.5!! Sam Malone is OLD, OUTDATED, STUPID and so is his sidekick!! I refuse to listen to 96.5 until Roula and Ryan come back!! If they get on another station...that's where I'll be tuning in!!
I cannot believe that you thought Sam Malone was a bigger and better choice for the morning show. He sucks. I dropped him years ago when he was on 104. Geez......really bad. And that Natalie, what a high pitched voice and her contributions are minimal. Guess you got her so Sam doesn't have to talk to himself.
