A Legend Named Fred Jan 20, 2024

Show notes

As a BIG part of celebrating the 100th Anniversary of 89 WLS, we are doing interviews with the talent, staff, management, and others about the impact of this radio monster!

No lineup was ever better than the DJs from all those years at Music Radio WLS, and no one was funnier than Fred Winston. In this episode Andrea Darlas and I talk to Fred about how cool those days were and what he meant to me as I was coming up.

You see if it hadn't been for Fred Winston there may never have been me. So maybe now you know who to blame! Remember you can hear the radio show weekday mornings, 530 - 9a, on the Big 89 WLS.

HOLIDAYS AND DISASTER PREP

The guest is the lynch pin to keeping us ready for the worst and hoping for the best

And...when he was on... he was the only physicist in the room. I know you're shocked

Dr. Dimitri Kusnezov from the Department of Homeland Security was on my radio show and now he's here on this new episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE
