Affiliates for the CBS Radio produced Westwood One syndicated morning host Adam Carolla are being told that Friday will be the last day for the show, although “best of” shows will be fed for a month. Carolla is also out at home base KSLX-FM Los Angeles along with the rest of the staff including Tom Leykis. Carolla the former “Loveline” host replaced Howard Stern on a number of then Infinity west coast stations back in 2006 as a part of it’s “Free FM” format . The impending flip from FM Talk in Los Angeles even after KSLX posted some impressive PPM numbers  in a few demos, looks like an end, at least temporarily to the talk on FM experiment.
