Don decided to quit. I was under the impression that the show was continuing on without him, but I could be wrong. I think they probably just meant, last show together. I haven't listened in a couple weeks, and they were just playing "best of" stuff last time I tuned in.

Don is leaving. His wife was killed in an accident a few years ago and he has decided to move on. Very sad. I'm going to miss them. Mike will still be on. Don't know who the co-host will be. Tomorrow is their last show together.

They have had some classic Don and Mike from WAVA days on this week leading up to the last show FRIDAY!... Don said back in 2005 when they renewed there contract that this would be his last one and he was going to retire in May of 2008. Love or hate the Don and Mike show they have been on in DC 23 years and are true ICONS!

I was a listener when they started on WAVA, and after they moved to WJFK! Then I moved away in the 90's and had not been back to the area long when Freda was killed. That was so sad.

I have listened to them at times over the years since WAVA, and most the time they really are not funny at all. Especially when they get political, they are pretty much all lefties except Rob.

Mike is funny when doing some impressions, other than that I can't remember them making me laugh.
