Glen Macnow Returns to 94 WIP With New Deal in Hand

Glen Macnow returned to his Saturday morning football show with Ray Didinger today and sounded upbeat and chipper as the two discussed the upcoming Eagles/Bears Sunday Night Football. Macnow had been off the air since December 9th. Macnow voluntarily left the afternoon show with co-host Anthony Gargano while contract negotiations were in limbo.

Macnow's new contract with CBS Radio will have him doing pre-game shows for the Eagles broadcasts on WIP and for the Phillies on sister station 1210 WPHT during baseball season. In January, he will also be heard on another CBS owned station KYW Newsradio 1060’s afternoon broadcast of “Reporter’s Roundup,” and during football season with Harry Donahue on the station’s morning sports reports at a quarter of and a quarter after the hour.

Glen Macnow Leaves WIP While Contract Talks Continue

Glen Macnow is off the air for now at 94 WIP as he continues negotiations for a new contract that runs out at the end of the year.

Macnow left the airwaves midway through today's (Monday) show with Anthony Gargano as they transitioned into the Philadelphia Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman show. The Prof has been with WIP for 20 years.

Glen adds his thoughts on facebook:

"I'll be taking time off from WIP (and away from Facebook) until my situation at the station is resolved. I just finished my 20th year at the station and I've cherished the opportunity to work with three great partners in Jody, Ray and Anthony. I love the people at WIP and I particularly love the Philadelphia fans I get to talk with every day. Hope to talk with you again soon."
