After 28 years, Gerry House’s radio team the House Foundation is splitting up. Blaming budget cuts at the Clear Channel owned station, ringleader House told The Tennessean that Dec. 23 will be the last day on the WSIX morning show for newsman Al Voecks and sportscaster Duncan Stewart. Remaining on-air will be Country Music DJ Hall of Fame inductee House, sidekick Mike Bohan, and producer Richard Falklen.

House told the newspaper that he fought the changes, explaining, “I’ve been to the point where I’ve quit and renegotiated and come back…These are tough times economically. I hate this, but we have to step forward.”

He also said the station is considering hiring a new person to do both news and sports for the show.

    No morning is complete without Gerry House and the House Foundation! We listeners/fans survived when Paul Randall was replaced by Mike Bohan (whom we’ve come to love); and when Devon O’Day left her position. NOW, we’re losing Al Voecks and Duncan Stewart?

    Heaven help us! Hang in there, Gerry.. Mike, too! We are still listening and we share your sorrow in losing a huge part of “the family”!

    Gee, wasn’t radio consolidation supposed to make for more streamlined, effecient, profitable radio? I guess bigger isn’t better. Why hire someone new to do sports and news instead of keeping one of the current ones? I understand running a business, but why is it the good things that always get downsized and never the bad?
