Radio - What Happened?
A look at the rise and fall of commercial radio, seen from the eyes of two baby boomers. Terry Bettis and Jim Christoferson both worked in local radio for years, in small to large markets. Their experience allows others to see what they see -- a virtual WKRP in every market across the country. Personalities, promotions, formats, actual air checks of the nation's top radio stations of the last 60 years -- all facets are talked about, listened to, and discussed in this weekly podcast.

No interview this week, but some great audio! Lisa Orkin was kind enough to share an episode of The Tooth Fairy! She says she likes it better than Chickenman. We also have our second music montage contest. 10 songs from the 70's, see if you can name them all. No Shazaam please! And finally, we pay a small tribute to Casey Kasem, with audio from one of his shows in the 70's, and his final sign off. Truly one of the greats of the radio industry. Next week, an interview with Stan Webb, one of the main cogs in the beginning of Clear Channel.
