This week, in our first podcast without Jim -- we trudge forward with some airchecks.  Jim always loved it when we played airchecks, so that's what we're going to do.  This week, we listen to some Los Angeles stations back in the late 60s and 70s.  We hear Dr. Don Rose, the real Don Steele, and Charlie Tuna -- 3 icons of the radio industry.  Thanks for listening.
