RON HERSEY – Radio

Podcast: Download (Duration: 46:46 — 37.5MB)

RADIO – During this interview this old chum and I discovered that it was 30 years ago almost to the day that we first met at the WSHE/WSRF trailer park! One of the wily vets of South Florida radio history relives the days starting out in Ft. Pierce, FL and stints at WSHE, WHYI and WMXJ.
I expected this episode to be a silly and “ROTFL-like” and instead we had an almost entirely serious discussion about the radio industry.  Ron’s “pipes” and creative work can be heard on WFTL 850 AM . I think we found the perfect guy to interview me for show #100! Visit Ron’s facebook page here.
