Another week, another recap - and I can almost promise you we'll have a story break in the next few days as well, so catch up on this week, and stay tuned for something fun, something new, something... short.  In the meantime, here's the latest:

SANTEE LEAVES TOPEKA -- The Topeka Capital-Journal notes that former KYYS/KBEQ personality Spike Santee has left his role as Cumulus/Topeka Market Manager, but remains with the company and retains his Senior Vice President title. According to Santee's website, he will now focus on "the company's new national branding and marketing efforts."

FORBIS BACK IN MO NEWS -- A former Kansas City newsman is back on the air in Missouri, now from his current Florida locale. With the addition of KIRX/Kirksville to its outsourced news service, Virtual News Center has added former KCMO-A/KMBZ News Director Dale Forbis to handle anchor duties from his home base in Orlando.

KFKF UNVEILS "HIGH NOON SALOON" -- "The All-Request 70s and 80s Lunch" has disappeared from the noon hour at KFKF. In its place, you'll now find the "High Noon Saloon" playing "Your most wanted songs" according to the station's website.

PRESS CLUB SEEKING ENTRIES -- The Kansas City Press Club is currently taking entries for the 2010 Heart of America Awards, which will be presented on June 5th at the Muehlback Hotel. The broadcast radio categories in which a station can enter are: News Program, Breaking News, Business Reporting, Talk Radio, Feature, and Investigative Reporting.

KPRS JOCKS UP FOR AWARDS -- Voting is underway for the Kansas City Entertainment Awards, and three KPRS personalities are on the ballot in the "Best Radio DJ/Personality" category. Brian B. Shynin, Sean Tyler, and Big Kenny Diamondz are three of the category's five nominees, and you can cast your vote for all 25 categories once per day from now until April 15th. CLICK HERE to cast your ballot.

KCHZ MORNINGS STILL OPEN -- A recent All Access note from Cumulus SVP/Programming Jan Jeffries notes that the search continues for a new KCHZ morning show. You may recall that the opening was originally posted last fall after the station transitioned to CHR and dropped original morning team Shorty and the Boyz. No word on the status of the open night position which was advertised at the same time last fall, but has yet to be filled.

That'll do it for now...  Have a great weekend, and stay tuned!
