140 days left to wander the streets of Utah ’til my demise Medical conditions and my age 86 say it is a time to move to the big broadcast studios in the sky” You never know about these kinds of notes Were there medical issues prompting his writing “The ‘note’ is prompted by a convergence of advanced COPD stenosis of the trachea and residual radiation from two earlier bouts of vocal cord cancerand of course the advancing years brought all that together” Scott said there will be NO funeral and NO services “I have been told that there may be some folks out there who would say a word about memories of times we’ve spent together or near together Please feel free to contact me at: scottvoscottcom and I will collect them as the final pages of the last chapter of my book “Me Myself and I” Wanna see a really cool house Jim Ladd has lived there since 1974 and it is now up for sale Here’s the video listing site … Speaking of Ladd Rich Piombino kicked of our summer series by putting a spotlight on Jim as a one-of-a-kind broadcaster in the history of LARadio Our second spotlight is set for Monday By the way if you want to select someone you think was unique and unduplicatable send a note to: AvilaBeachdbgmailcom along with the reasons why your candidate was so special … After 16 years with Entercom/CBS cluster in LA John Michael has resigned He held a number of positions including music director apd and talent at KROQ JACK/fm and AMP Radio … Howard Lapides sent a note about the passing of Billy Sammeth manager of Cher and Joan Rivers “He was always a great friend to

Since moving to the Central Coast a year or so ago Cherie and I have supported the Cal Poly/SLO theatre group Jersey Boys was performed the other night where something happened that was a first for both of us There is a scene when the bad guys come to collect owed gambling debts from a member of the Four Seasons All of a sudden an announcement over the loud speaker “Will all actors please exit the stage and will the audience remain seated” All actors scurried off the stage Lights were dimmed on stage and we all sat in the dark for 10 minutes And then another announcement “Jersey Boys will now continue” Actors came back on stage and resumed the action where they left off but it was clear that all was not right As soon as the Frankie Valli character sang his next song we knew they had made a change Not only was he taller and stockier but his falsetto range was limited and not as strong The audience began to buzz about the change Recognizing that something happened to the original character playing Frankie the audience embraced the change and gave the new actor a rousing applause and cheering at the end of his first song The play stopped for a moment while the audience continued to applaud the replacement actor/singer You could tell he was moved as he bowed and patted his heart with a thank you Yesterday we received the following email: “Thank you so much for joining Cal Poly Arts for a fabulous performance of Jersey Boys on Tuesday evening at the Performing Arts Center During Act II a replacement was made due to a minor injury For the remainder of the performance the role of Frankie Valli was played by Ben Bogen” At dinner before the performance we marveled at how many “Frankie Valli’s” there must be to cover for the damage done to the voice singing the falsetto night after night We guessed before the play resumed that the loss of Frankie’s voice was the reason for the change And the show must go on and it did The kid was a real trooper Batter Up June 20 2018 TALKERS’ editor Mike Kinosian takes a look at flagship baseball affiliations The following April 2018 scoreboards are for an MLB team’s English-language Nielsen Audio subscribing key station Specifically information for the flagships of the Mets WOR and Yankees WFAN is limited to their home market – New York City – even though they may appear as well in Nassau-Suffolk Long Island and Middlesex-Somerset-Union Key stations for the two Bay Area teams – the San Francisco Giants KNBR and Oakland A’s KGMZ – have San Francisco ratings info only not San Jose Things though admittedly get especially thorny for ratings stats of the primary flagship for the Los Angeles Angels as KLAA is unlisted April 2018 in both the Los Angeles and Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario reports Therefore “NA” Not Available is frequently displayed next to KLAA throughout this entire overview Is the Bloom Off the Rose June 20 2018 Lisa Bloom was featured in a massive eight-page story in Los Angeles Magazine The title of the piece was The Trials of Lisa Bloom Some highlights from the Bryan Smith story: The legal pundit and civil rights attorney made a name of herself taking on powerful men on behalf of her female clients Then she came out defending Harvey Weinstein last fall and all hell broke loose She anchored her own show on truTV Lisa Bloom: Open Court for eight years and had parlayed appearances as a legal analyst on cable news and entertainment show into a career as the go-to pundit on CNN MSNBC CBS News Dr Phil Dr Drew KABC and the Joy Behar Show Her reputation ignited when it was learned that Lisa represented Harvey Weinstein How could she of all people She didn’t just work with him She defended him Lisa received death threats and rape threats against her and her daughter To make matters worse word surfaced that Bloom in the course of her work with Weinstein had struck a deal for his production company and the rapper Jay-Z to make a docuseries based on a book she had written about the Trayvon Martin case “It was probably one of the worst times that I’ve ever seen for her or at least that I’ve witnessed” says Bloom’s daughter Sarah an attorney who joined her mother’s shop The central rule in most crisis management is not to make matters worse In the Weinstein case however Bloom didn’t just breach that rule she trampled it tore it up and turned it into confetti Even she admits that she stumbled in those first fraught days At 56 Bloom is lean and fit She works at a stand-up desk with a treadmill and characteristically Type A about how she spends her off-hours she’s summited Mount Kilimanjaro backpacked both the Appalachian Trail in New Hampshire and the Inca Trail in Peru completed the New York City marathon and visited more than 40 countries from Cambodia to Costa Rica Law school wasn’t part of the plan early into Bloom’s days at UCLA Like her daughter Gloria Allred didn’t set out to become a lawyer at first Bloom worked for her mother’s firm for nine years after graduating from Yale Law There was an early marriage though Bloom talks little of it You can read the complete story at: Fox 11’s Good Day LA Reunion June 19 2018 Whotta’ fun reunion at KABC the other day when the longtime hosts of Good Day LA got together on the John Phillips and Jillian Barberie show “It was wonderful” enthused Phillips It was the first time the three of them have done a broadcast together since Dorothy Lucey left the show They talked they interacted they laughed and they talked over each other just like they did for 20 years doing the Fox 11 Morning Show Steve said he felt like a referee There were times over two decades when Jillian and Dorothy didn’t like each other but they were unable to explain why Later Steve remembered what happened after 9/11 happened “The tenor of our shows changed for the next six months” He was hopeful that it would be a more peaceful period in our society but he said it didn’t last that long He addressed the issue of polarization “Fox and CNN can be talking about the same story yet they speak a different language” When GDLA started in 1995 Steve said there were five morning shows “and we were in 12th place on local tv” Steve didn’t talk about the circumstances regarding why he left the Fox show It would fun to have three of the together again They were unpredictable and fun to listen to In other news: former KNAC dj Diana DeVille has joined middays for at 991/The Ranch KWSV-LP – Simi Valley Our listeners are a very vibrant and involved community of Country music fans and I’m really looking forward to entertaining them through their workdays said Diana KPFK’s Bill Gardner host of Saturday’s Rhapsody in Black participated in a documentary on Sam Cooke one of the best Top 40/rampb singers If you loved Sam’s music it is a fascinating story Jim Ladd is One-of-a-Kind By Rich Piombino RD Music amp Marketing I was fortunate enough to work at KMET from 1983 – 1986 Having previously worked with some amazing air personalities on previous occasions I was especially proud to share space at The Mighty Met with Cynthia Fox Pat “Paraquat” Kelley Jeff Gonzer and a man who I feel is the best rock dj of all time Jim Ladd Honestly I didn’t meet him for a full three months after I started at KMET on June 6 1983 One Friday night on the way out I stuck my head in the studio said hello he nodded and shook my hand I spent many “late hour” evenings at the station so I was in a position to be an average listener with the distinct advantage of being 15 feet from the studio What I remember most and what makes Jim the “essential” rock jock is based on his overwhelming knowledge of the artists and the music much of it based on personal relationships with many of them Second are the narratives — if you’ve ever seen heard Bruce Springsteen at shows we all know the kind of intros Bruce makes as lead up to the songs Jim is amazing there – I always remember best how he intro’d Panama from Van Halen any number of Pink Floyd and Doors tracks As a matter of fact hearing Jim’s intro of LA Woman sealed my respect for ‘both’ Jim’s the Doors were the second and third concerts I ever saw in the late 60’s at Madison Square Garden and the Felt Forum in NYC Jim Ladd and I did a promotion together when Elektra released Dance On Fire the first Doors video compilation We gathered fans and listeners for a “Dinner with the Doors” including Robbie John and Ray – it’s no coincidence that it was Jim Ladd who rounded out that foursome After I left The Met I went to work for Norm Pattiz Thom Ferro and Brian Heimerl at Westwood One We were assigned to tape one of Roger Waters’ early Radio KAOS shows at Great Woods outside of Boston Roger had handpicked Jim to “narrate’”the dj parts on that record thus capping an amazing era and close-up opportunity to work with one of the all-time greats These memories are sealed forever Nostalgia Father’s Day – 6 Years Ago Today Vin Scully Honors His Father June 17 2012 A few years back the LA Times published a Father’s Day feature titled “Honor Thy Father” which featured some of our sports legends like John Wooden Arte Moreno and Anita DeFrantz Vin Scully was also featured and here are some highlights from that piece: “Dad was working late as usual finishing up a 14-hour shift at the Brooklyn Navy Yard Vin Scully had finished his homework and was getting sleepy Although something was on his mind he couldn’t wait up so he wrote a note and put it on his dad’s breakfast plate before going to bed It was 1943 and Vin was 15 His stepfather Allan Reeve left for work each morning at 4:30 riding buses and subways to the shipyard often not returning home until after nightfall Reeve had an opportunity take a civilian job on a ship headed to the combat zone in Europe The money would be good maybe even enough to get the family out of the 40-a-month fifth-story walk-up apartment in Washington Heights Vin had only a hazy memory of his biological father dying of pneumonia 11 years earlier but he knew the toll it had taken on his mother Bridget The thought of losing Reeve a reserved pipe-smoking Englishman who had brought stability and love to the household terrified him So in the note Vin asked his dad to turn down the job ‘I was afraid he might be put in harm’s way’ Vin said ‘I didn’t want him to risk the family to make a few more dollars’ Vin remembers his father a silk salesman at an upscale clothing store from a few grainy photos After he died Bridget took 4-year-old Vin to Ireland to spend time with her family ‘My mother told me later that when we came back I had a brogue you could cut with a knife’ he said ‘My ache now is all the things I missed because of my job’ he said ‘Mother’s Day Father’s Day birthdays anniversaries graduations you name it It has been a series of misses And it had made my heart ache Baseball just devours you Allan Reeve read Vin’s note at breakfast and did not take the job that would have sent him overseas His relationship with his stepson continued to grow over the years ‘To me he was Dad’ Vin said ‘I never thought of him as a stepdad I had an ache because I never knew my father and it was washed away by my dad’” Email Saturday 61618 Listening to Cousin Duffy “I remember listening to Warren Duffy when he was ‘Cousin Duffy’ with WMEX – one of the two leading AM Top 40 station in my hometown Boston I would visit the station’s lobby where the public was allowed to come in and watch the djs working through a large picture window on the left as you entered the building On one visit Duffy came out to say hi to me and my friends I think one of us asked him how he decided what songs to play His answer was he didn’t ‘I don’t even know what I’m playing now’ he said with irritation I looked at the 45 spinning on the turntable through the window behind him and wondered how anyone could be unhappy in such a job It was obvious that he was very passionate about music and that he was frustrated there He was a wonderful dj though” – Sandy Wells Duffy’s Full Life “I listened to Warren Duffy quite often in the 1990s I’m sorry to hear of his passing Here is a page with dozens of his airchecks newscasts promos and commercials plus several photos and Duffy’s essay about his early years in radio by clicking Warren’s photo” – Steve Thompson Ratings “Twenty years after all of us are long over the mountain whoever takes over this site will STILL be reporting KRTH at 3 behind those other two! What d’ya wanna bet Been goin’ on for decades Why not a couple more As they say some things never seem to change” – Rich Brother Robbin Non-Com in the Race “I believe that one of the most interesting things about the ratings over the last several months is the slow but steady rise of KPCC Here is a listener supported station that is doing what KQED another listener supported station in the San Francisco Bay Area has done I haven’t heard much talk about how KPCC has done this but kudos to them KPCC has now cracked the Top Ten Maybe some of the other news/talk stations should take a few KPCC classes” – Sterrett Harper Burbank Red Ryder Collection “I really enjoyed the re-cap of Frank Bresee’s life When I was 10 years old I had the complete collection of Red Ryder figures Now I know that I was not the only Red Ryder voice I recall one time that Irv Ivers and myself were at the Malibu Colony and we had the rare opportunity to see Paul Newman’s 944 Porsche Whotta’ treat” – Stan White Seattle Bresee Memory “I got to know Frank Bresee from his association with Roger Carroll while I was at KMPC as apd from 1972 – 75 When Frank found out I loved the radio Gunsmoke show with William Conrad as Matt Dillon US Marshall – ‘the first one they look for and the last they want to meet it’s a chancy job and a little lonely’ – he gave me a carton of tapes of the show Sorry indeed to hear it is gone” – Eric Norberg Portland Oregon More Bresee “Frank Bresee started Golden Days of Radio on my KMPC show It was on for years at 7 pm with 5 or 10 minutes of old shows I just talked with his wife and she doesn’t sound well I introduced Frank to Bobbie years ago” – Roger Carroll Wall of Fame “I read of Frank Bresee’s passing and the story of the autograph wall in his basement theater I’m happy to report that the wall is intact and restored The house was purchased a few years ago by Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne who asked my company to do some lighting and hardware work We are friendly with them and they asked us to take a look at the theater I knew a bunch of the names other than the obvious ones on the wall and explained who they were They wondered if they were real so we called a friend who is an autograph expert and he came over and authenticated them all That is when Sharon decided to restore the wall as there was some water damage The attached photos are from before the restoration Once they started restoring the wall they found out about Frank Bresee and contacted him He remembered all the stories behind each of the names including the circumstances of each signing He told them about the beginnings of Let’s Make a Deal as well as the signatures of Elvis and Natalie Wood It seems they were there together and wound up having an argument which continued right out into the street” – Gary Gibson One is a Lonely Number “I love the K-Earth promotion and how great is it to see Jerry Mathers : As for your question about one LARP that is one of a kind That’s a tough one There are so many great ones I idolized Robert W Morgan until I met him The Real Don Steele was of course a tremendous talent and unique Casey Kasem started something special with American Top 40 and was a very nice as well Sadly though we have all been replaced at one time or another” – Mike Butts One Perspective “To my way of thinking — the LA radio personalities who broke thru barriers are the unduplicatable ones as the barriers are no longer there to break and as such cannot ever be duplicated” – Roy Laughlin LARadio Newsletter “John Newton forwarded a copy of your newsletter I worked with John and Mark Morris at KKLA back in the 80’s Can’t believe what a service you are providing What a wealth of radio history you have put at people’s fingertips So many names popped up that I recall Thank you so much for doing this Could I possibly be put on your email list It would be such a pleasure to receive Thanks so much” – Joseph Roth Mentions About Mary Lyon and Gene Weed “1 On people leaving California I realize it isn’t what it once was but I moved to Oregon for nine months in 1973 The summer was almost ‘dream like’ but when the reality of the cold and gray and rain of the Pacific Northwest kicked in at the end of summer I asked myself ‘what have I done’ By November of ’73 I became a permanent resident of California and have never considered moving away again 2 On Gene Weed he had a show on Los Angeles TV on Saturday night’s in ’65 and ’66 called Shivaree One Saturday night while living in Lompoc and working with ‘YOU’ Don Barrett I was watching Gene’s show and his guests that night were The Righteous Brothers and Stevie Wonder At the end of the show Gene thanked his guests and invited us to tune in ‘next Saturday night when our guests will be Len Barry and The New Beats’ Gene says ‘Goodnight’ and then he Bill and Bobby of The Righteous Brothers and Stevie start waving goodnite to the camera except Gene and The Brothers are facing the camera and Stevie is facing left and waving to the side and back stage area and Gene suddenly realized this and quickly grabs Stevie by the shoulders and turns him about 45 degrees towards the camera True story” – Joe Collins K-EARTH Locks Up Perfect Promotion June 15 2018 K-EARTH ran a near-perfect sales/programming promotion the “Locks of Love Week” for the eighth year The morning team of Gary Bryan and Lisa

Warren was prominent on the Los Angeles airwaves as both an original voice of progressive rock and as a longtime host on Christian talk radio He began his career as a singer on the radio before he started in a weekly television show at age 10 After graduating from high school at the age of 15 Warren started his long and varied career in broadcasting including Washington DC where “I literally ruled the roost” Warren helped launch the legendary progressive rocker KMET “The station was a melting pot for some pretty talented people To give us some validity with ad agencies when we were but a fledgling operation unable to afford 24-hour-a-day jocks we were one of the first ‘automated’ music stations in the country” recalled Warren “We hired B Mitchel Reed to host our afternoon drive-time show so the agencies would recognize us” After time at KDAY Warren left radio to become the national album promotion director for 20th Century Fox records Within a year he was promotion director for the Beach Boys putting together the group’s worldwide tour celebrating their 15th anniversary Warren soon found himself with a serious drug problem He started his recovery in the late 1970s leading to his religious conversion and renewing his faith through Robert Schuller Ministries In the early 1980s Warren joined the staff of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove where he served as executive administrative assistant to Dr Schuller Warren later moved to Kauai Hawaii to serve as a church pastor “I feel that everything I have gone through from being a child prodigy to overcoming drug addiction to pastoring a church has contributed to my ability to relate to people on a ‘heart’ level” said Warren After stepping down from the pastorate Warren created his own marketing and consultancy agency One of his clients was Salem Communications which at that time owned 30 Christian radio stations nationally It led to his afternoon drive program “Duffy and Company – Live from LA” on Salem-owned KKLA Warren declared his program was a home for the “Not-so-Silent Majority” He left KKLA on January 4 2004 the tenth anniversary of his talk show Warren’s friend John Loftus shared details of his passing: Pam Warren’s wife called to share the news that our beloved brother Duffy left us this morning of June 13 2018 and is now in the arms of Jesus She was at his side during his final days giving comfort and tender care and receiving the blessing of his inimitable smile I know that each of us has been touched in special ways by Duffy’s life and have fond memories of this dear man God used him mightily for His kingdom and is now partaking face to face of Duffy’s most radiant smile yet! In April 2016 Warren was diagnosed with Stage IV brain cancer In spite of his situation Warren remained joyful and valiant I cherish the many ways Duffy has touched my life From when I first heard him over the airwaves on KKLA to my riveting initial phone conversation with him that occurred completely by chance err that is by God’s providence! to his deep care for my youngest son Jason during his teen years and ultimately officiating his wedding to standing by me in some of my darkest times Duffy has left an indelible impression on my life Pam and I both express our heartfelt thanks for your prayers remembrances and financial support during these past months You helped ensure that Duffy received exceptional care and that his wishes will be carried out for his final arrangements Though a memorial celebration is planned the Duffy family depleted their personal funds because of the prolonged cancer fight plus the expenses of assisted living and funeral costs Loftus established a GoFundMe page to assist the Duffys Donations will be administered by Warren’s widow Pam Duffy Photo: Warren and Pam Duffy Do We Have One-Of-A-Kind LARPs June 13 2018 I came late to the Anthony Bourdain party I hate to admit I thought it was one of those tacky food shows that CNN threw in when there was not a catastrophic news calamity to cover My family only watches 60 – 90 minutes of tv each evening We have to make choices with our limited time in front of the screen About a year ago I was probably watching some news event on CNN and Parts Unknown came on I watched and after the first viewing I was hooked OMG Where had I been I recorded everything and relished each viewing I thrive on storytelling and Bourdain had such a strong knack to do just that And the way he would weave in pop culture to a program was masterful Anthony Bourdain was truly one-of-kind In local media we’ve had a few Ralph Story was one of the best storytellers You would also have to include PBS’ Huell Howser Golleeeeeee But have we had a real original in LARadio Who would you think was truly a one-of-kind personality and why Send your suggestion to: AvilaBeachdbgmailcom Frank Bresee Actor Who

cars Carolla’s automobile collection caught the interest of the LA Times placing the story on the front page of the Business section The introduction of the story started: “Adam Carolla is a comedian carpenter podcaster filmmaker bestselling author race car driver and entrepreneur” The writer didn’t mention Adam’s a LARP He was morning man at KLSX for a time as well as the co-host of KROQ’s “Loveline” with Dr Drew Pinsky Adam thought that cars raced by Newman might increase in value after the actor died making them a sensible investment Carolla spent 1 million securing Newman’s

Wonderful Stories June 10 2014 KGIL 1260 AM was a factor in the LA market during the 60s and 70s Many LARP who are currently on the air got their start at the San Fernando Valley station Arguably the face of the station was Sweet Dick Whittington When I was running a Detroit station in the late 60s ad buyers loved to tell me stories about KGIL knowing I grew up here KGIL would fly a group of key automotive buyers and ad execs to Los Angeles Once at LAX they were joined by KGIL executives and they all boarded a private plane and headed for the San Fernando Valley When they reached the top of the Santa Monica Mountains the exec would direct his guests to look out their windows This is the San Fernando Valley where a million people live and only ONE radio station exclusively broadcasts to the Valley The station with a limited signal all of a sudden was elevated to get a piece of all automotive buys Very smart selling and marketing Tom Bernstein Judy and John St Thomas Newton Jim Thornton Ed Ziel Rick Scarry and Larry Van Nuys Many travelled great distances to attend the KGIL Reunion Gary Parker flew in from Florida for the event And the amazing Johnny Gunn – 88 years young – was as present and joyful as ever said Keri Tombazian who hosted the event for close to 50 partygoers in her backyard Ed Ziel traveled from his home in Yerington Nevada added Tom Patterson who took the photos and was instrumental in planning the event Also Ed Krovitz drove 45 hours from Morro Bay to attend the party then drove back home that evening 9 hours of driving what a trooper no he’s nuts Ed Ziel Joe McDonnell Cary Ginnell Ned Skaff Tom Patterson Jane Platt Ed Krovitz Richard Lyons Jerri Levi and Johnny Gunn Sweet Dick Whittington was unable to attend the event but he did send a note to Patterson and Tombazian: God how I loved seeing those pictures You all are aging so gracefully I wish I could say the same How did that kid Jim Thornton get in there I truly am sorry that I was a no-show but my kid whom I haven’t seen nor much heard from for six or seven years has ‘pulled himself up’ and his brothers and I welcomed him home Sorry for the conflict but I know you both can understand As hard as life can be sometimes I guess we all three agree that raising kids to become what you hope for them is perhaps the most difficult but now happily rewarding In celebration we all got stupid and sang about 250 verses of Pharrel Williams Happy You both deserve so much credit for bringing together this sometimes disparate group of winners and the undisciplined morning man should have been there You are such good people and you’re both lookin’ good! I hope Keri that you are keeping your spirits up Maybe that’s an unnecessary statement but I just wanted to again let you know that I have the fullest confidence in you and that your professional life will be better than ever before when that ‘call’ comes You certainly have already succeeded as a person Tom: You have always been a successful person and professional We are all very proud of you I’m beginning to sound like a delusional sage aren’t I Age does that to you So this is both an apology and congratulations to you both for what you obviously so successfully achieved last Saturday You are both simply the best and I glad to know you If I’m around for the next one I’ll be there Love to you both Dick Email Saturday 6918 Lyon Queen “WOW what a story from Mary Lyon What a history What a writer Mary WAS LARadio Soooo many stations Soooo many buddies!

years” – Alan F Ross Move to Oregon “I really enjoyed Mary Lyon’s story on her move to Oregon KC and I are seriously considering a move to a ranch in Northern Idaho We’ve found one with a pond horse stables for KC and acreage Even though we live on a small ranch in Big Bear the absolute best part of SoCal the taxes traffic etc is really getting to us Will let you know what we decide” –Larry Huffman Busy Lyon“WOW Mary Lyon has done a LOT – all those early photos with her guests is amazing” – Mike Butts Weedy One“Scrolling down on your site today I again saw Gene Weed and it brings back an ancient war story which I heard from a colleague at KPHO/TV in Phoenix back in 1960 or ’61 It was told to me by Pat McMahon who joined the station in 1960 By 1961 he and I were both in uniform as our Arizona Air National Guard fighter squadron was activated for the Berlin Crisis as ordered by President Kennedy Prior to moving to Phoenix Pat had done radio and tv including a teen dance show in the Quad Cities when he was drafted He was in basic training at Fort Carson Colorado with Gene Weed likewise a drafted disc jockey Their platoon sergeant hollered ‘anyone here have radio experience’ Pat all 5’10” of him and Weed raised their hands They were instructed to pick up the heavy back-pack walkie-talkie base units and march with them They protested ‘We don’t know anything about this stuff’ The platoon sergeant: ‘I thought you said you had radio experience’ Weed and McMahon answered in unison ‘Yeah but we’re disc jockeys’ They were stuck being radiomen in their assignments I don’t know if Pat’s alive or not He spent his entire career in Phoenix We’ve lost touch” – Warren Cereghino Goodtime Steve Mitchell“One of the highlights of my radio career was when I made it to LA That was a goal for me I was part of the original staff of KIQQ K100 along with some great radio talent big names in the biz We were there before the furniture in the offices It was a brand-new station We started up with used equipment in the studios located smack dab in the middle of Hollywood within walking distance of Martoni’s bar and next door to the Cinerama Dome The two guys in charge were Irv Ivers who later went to the movie business and Don Barrett who later created the highly regarded and well-known LARadiocom which keeps track of Los Angeles radio and its people Yes my nickname was Goodtime Steve Credit Michael Butts for that” – Goodtime Steve Mitchell Ingold Goss Update “Thank you for the update on what Dean Goss is up to I had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of times during the ‘Mousersize with Mickey’ days at KRTH and he was so nice even working a United Way event for Bank of America at the Arco Towers I hope he tells the students what a difference he made in the mornings for Angelenos I was sorry when Disney put the kibosh on his entertaining bits By and large most of the djs who worked fm especially during the 80’s and 90’s did so much not just for the music but for the artists Even stunts like playing ‘State of Shock’ almost 24 hours straight K-100 or Machine Gun Kelly supposedly getting fired for something similar kept us laughing during the hardest of times Nowadays we need our personalities even more not just to showcase music and the artists who create it but to encourage listeners to speak out about the issues And if you enjoy someone’s show let the suits know it!” – Julie Byers Regan Memories “As a radio guy these record boys were cousins in our success Without their product radio as we know it would never have been Russ Regan was a real prince As it works out his illness zapped the family’s finances One of his main promotion guys Bill Pfordresher is putting together a concert to raise money He has already secured the group Ambrosia You’re The Biggest Part Of Me to get involved I know you get inundated with emails and I’m not askin’ you to do anything for Russ just lettin’ you know how great a man he was” – Rich Brother Robbin Viscott Memories “I have fond memories of attending Santa Monica High School in the mid-80’s where due to a light schedule during my senior year I was able to listen to KABC in the afternoons I was instantly drawn to Dr David Viscott due to his calming voice and his no-nonsense analytical style which was radically different from the long drawn out scholarly exercises employed by others in his field I recall he would often say ‘Where do you want to be in five years’ That was very resonating since it stripped away all the excuses and only focused on moving forward with achievements I see a lot of this in use with today’s impatient millennium generation where the goal is to achieve something fast If utilized correctly it can be very successful I feel sad how his own life took a downturn and his eventual early death but I appreciated him greatly and feel he was ahead of his time I have no doubt he would have been embraced by today’s generation God bless you Dr Viscott and thank you for being a part of my life” – Steve Chang More David ViscottAs an avid listener to his show I was also fortunate to have been a patient of Dr David Viscott Hoping for some clarity about issues in my life I made an appointment to see him Dr Viscott was quite different than your average shrink My previous experiences with therapy took place in high-rise office buildings our sessions however were in a light airy screened-in porch at his home Dressed informally in khaki shorts a brightly-colored short-sleeve hawaiian-ish shirt and sandals he proudly explained that his method consisting of four two-hour sessions dramatically condensed the intensity and resolution of the work thereby eliminating the need for years of prolonged therapy At the end of the two hours he handed me a tape of our conversation and instructed me to review it every day for two weeks My homework was to note in writing how many times and about what I lied I pushed back hard suggesting I didn’t lie With a kind knowing smile he said ‘Yes you did everybody does’And then he did something remarkable As I was about to leave he gave me a big friendly hug kissed me on the cheek and said ‘I have a great deal of affection for you See you in two weeks’ After listing to my tape for a week I heard myself be less than honest many many times It clearly pointed out there were things in my life too difficult for me to be honest about Hearing myself do that was a revelation Unfortunately funds dried up which prevented me from completing two remaining sessions But I probably got more out of those four hours than a good year with more conventional therapy Dr Viscott’s hug and affection was not just for me but for all of humanity He was a terrific person and a gifted artful therapist” – Jeff Maxwell Snap Chat I enjoy seeing all of the photos of the various LARP you show at the beginning of each post you do I was wondering how you choose which photos to show Do you ave a system I am amazed at how many names I know and can now put a face to those names but even more amazed at how many photos you have of these mainly faceless and wonderful people” – Sterrett Harper Bad Link in Subscriber Email ‘Yours wasn’t

Ricky Debunking the Myths about Radio DJs By Kevin Ross – June 7 2018 RFFocus editor Kevin Ross was a radio dj for many years working in many markets including monumental stations like KKBT in Los Angeles There are some very interesting myths about radio djs that the pubic just assumes Well Kevin is here to tell you the truth about MOST DJs Of course there are exceptions to every rule but this profile fits MOST radio djs Read his column here There Was a Time When The Doctor Was In June 7 2018 Psychology and therapy driven programming is largely gone from LARadio But there was a time when we had some pretty big names – Toni Grant Dr Laura Schlessinger now on SiriusXM and David Viscott – who dispensed a quick diagnoses and prescription for change in usually five minutes or less In the 1990s Marnell Jameson was on assignment for a radio industry magazine to interview Viscott She thought maybe he would give her 45 minutes instead the interview ended up being four hours She only took one 90-minute cassette to record the interview so Viscott ended up providing additional tapes until he finished talking The interview took place in his Hancock Park home It’s been a decade since she reminisced about David on that chilly fall afternoon for the LA Times “Forget my prepared questions – I just let Viscott talk and rant through a riveting free association that resulted in a more complete portrait of the man than I could have ever achieved through questioning” Jameson wrote At his height Viscott appeared to be everywhere from his daily KABC radio show to a midday television program on KNBC/tv He offered the “quick hit” Viscott method to patients via therapists he personally trained based on four two-hour sessions at 1500 per session He travelled around the US leading seminars teaching others to find their “inner gift” Viscott also wrote more than a dozen books including two autobiographies and even had a greeting card line Eventually both the tv and radio shows were cancelled cutting off the source of new clientele The Viscott Center in Beverly Hills was relocated before the clinic and all of his satellite facilities were closed down while his seminars were downsized In 1993 Viscott declared bankruptcy with more than 1 million in debt leading to the loss of his Hancock Park home Viscott tried to re-emerge on the radio returning to an early evening program on KABC frequently pre-empted by Dodger baseball broadcasts The psychiatrist was then heard on KIEV sponsored by the Pain Relief Network Viscott had to find his own advertisers to try to stay on the air when the Pain Relief Network backed out of their deal In 1995 Viscott was hired for the 9 pm to midnight shift at KMPC a station which had recently switched to an all-talk format After initial hopes of syndication the show was cancelled as both Viscott and the station suffered low ratings His last regular radio gig was once-a-week appearances on KIIS/fm with Rick Dees When David died in 1996 he died alone at his Studio City home of an apparent heart attack He had been separated from his wife Katherine whom he’d been with for nearly 20 years A cleaning crew found him deceased in his bed David’s publicist Bonnie Fleming wasn’t surprised he was alone in the end “David had his own source of problems” said Fleming “I wish he could have taken more of his own advice and gotten help when he needed it” Viscott had lofty goals “I’m still earning my wings” he would say to friends “I’m here to help solve the great problems of Earth: Better distribute justice and food create a unified government make it safe from nuclear weapons clean up disease fix the ecology and here I am doing my best Most of all I want to do what I came here to do to make people feel stronger in their lives so that everyone’s life can be the source of strength and nurturing and gradually the world becomes better Then I can die in peace” He referred to death often Viscott had a bad heart Twice he said his heart stopped and he was taken for dead The heart problems stemmed from a condition he was born with called situs inversus totalis “in which all the organs of the body are on the wrong sides” I only met David Viscott once It was at one of his gatherings in Orange County Waiting outside with hundreds of others once the doors opened the crowd mostly women stormed inside to get a seat upfront with the hopes of sharing a personal problem and having David fix that problem The sense of excitement outside and inside the auditorium was not unlike waiting for a rock star to appear David had certainly been given a gift and the LARP community is better for his taking part His publicist friend feels the cause of David’s death ironically was due to a broken heart Alan Oda contributed to this

We frequently have different kinds of snow flurries now – hundreds of thousands of little petals from all the ornamental cherry trees up here blown about and swirling through the air when the wind kicks up And driving through various parts of town remind me of the Wilshire Corridor except that instead of tall concrete-and-glass high-rises it’s tall stately TREES! I’m only just starting to discover the radio scene up here the political issues up here and the lay of the land in general It’s so green and gorgeous up here mellow as can be well-hydrated because of all the rain and a gentle vibe that permeates everything The lake the towering trees the forests and rivers gentle people in good moods everywhere and friendly neighbors stopping by to chat while out walking their dogs This must be where old hippies go to retire! I do miss LA But I think I miss what LA WAS while I was growing up When it wasn’t quite so crowded and congested rush hour was really a mere hour long and there still was a something of a rainy season we could plan on Or maybe it felt that way because I was a kid Radio was a big part of that I still remember being stretched out on my towel at the neighbor’s pool with my transistor radio blaring KHJ KFWB and KRLA with all the Boss Jocks and the explosion of the Beatles and the “British Invasion” how long it took for J Paul Huddleston to intone his name at the end of his newscast held onto that “JAAAAAAAAAAAAY Paaaauuuul” part for what seemed like an entire daypart just by itself! the “KFWBeatles or KFWBeach Boys Call in and vote!” Beatles won btw and so much more Never did I dream that I’d eventually be one of those voices on two of those stations I was also across the hall from the third when KRLA was in the same large suite of offices as its then-FM complement KLSX doing the morning news for Phil Hendrie Never did I expect I’d actually wind up working with that Charlie Tuna guy I listened to religiously Mary Lyon w/Ringo Starr Harrison Ford Dan Akroyd and Tina Turner Never did I dream I’d be one of the first woman’s voices on any of those! Indeed in a couple of cases I WAS the first female voice providing morning news updates for an astonishing lineup of famed and brilliant morning men Never dreamed I’d become even a minor sort of broadcast “pioneer” I met and became friends with some of the most talented and towering figures in local and later network broadcasting The LA radio scene was very very good to me One of the biggest things I’ve learned about all this has come with the unpacking of all those boxes of our stuff and our decades of memories Some of these things I fished out of storage were mementos and framed photos awards and testimonials much of which I’d long ago forgotten It helped remind me about tons of things people events breaking stories and other happenings I kept thinking about that valuable advice I received years ago: If you’re ever feeling down about things in your life or the passing of years stop for a moment and put your resume together Doing that will compel you to revisit some of your finest accomplishments that will make you feel proud and help renew your spirit It’s even more powerful when you pull out those old photos and press clippings and actually hang ’em up on the wall It’s incredibly reaffirming! I won’t be a complete stranger though Our son’s still there for one thing and for another I refuse to miss the 50-year and 60-year reunions of KUCI in Irvine the 10-watt FM station at UCI to which I owe my career and where most of my decades-long record collection now resides They’ll find some real gems in there including some LPs with “KABC-FM” stamped on them from when the KLOS music department was cleaning out its library and leaving huge stacks of old albums in the hallway for those of us interested employees to take home if we wanted them Geographic changes notwithstanding I’ll never really leave all of that completely behind Mary Lyon on her Lake Oswego patio Mary with Dean Goss Donna Summer and her press passes over the years And thanks to you Don and your LARadiocom I will happily be able to stay connected Much love to you all! — Mary Lyon Hall of Fame Voting Begins Today June 4 2018 Voting for the Radio Hall of Fame begins today For the next two weeks you can participate in the vote via RadioVotecom or by texting You’ll find some LARP among those nominated for this year’s honors Here’s how you can vote via texting Send your message to 96000 then submit your selection from the following: For Ellen K text 100 For Kid Kelly 200 For Angie Martinez 300 And for John Tesh 400 For Mark Levin text 500 For Joe Madison 600 For George Noory 700 And for Jim Rome 800 Voting ends June 18 In other news: Artie Lange longtime part of the Howard Stern show has avoided a prison term for possessing heroin He is to serve four years of probation and complete an outpatient drug treatment program He wrote on Twitter: “The judge was very fair!

I was reminded of a contretemps some years ago between you and Heidi of Heidi Frosty and Frank this morning Since they came to KLOS they have been funny without mostly going over the line However they were in very poor taste today and I had to change the station Anyone who can turn a heartwarming story about the dad who took his late son’s prom date to the prom into something dirty doesn’t deserve my listening to them Sad thing is they have ripped off so many bits from The Woody Show which sometimes is off putting and made them funny that this was one they should have skipped” – Julie Byers Devastated at Russ Regan’s News “I was devastated when I learned of Russ Regan’s passing Our friendship dated back to the glory years of KFWB ‘Color Radio’ Channel 98 Russ was a record promotion man during that period and among the very best What a pleasure it was to get ‘off the air’ at 9 am and have him waiting usually with record librarian Don Anti at his side to hand me a 45 copy of the ‘Next 1 hit in the country!’ He was correct with this prediction more times than not Russ had an ‘ear’ for what was ‘commercial’ ie ‘a hit or a miss’ His talents led him to become ceo of one of the top independent labels in the business It was Russ who introduced us to such mega-stars as Barry White Elton John and Neil Diamond among others It’s a cliche to say this – but with this gentle man the cliche has merit There was only ONE Russ Regan And God knows he will be missed May he rest in peace” – Wink Martindale On the Highway with Mark Denis “Just the other day I stumbled upon an old episode of Highway to Heaven circa 1984 During one scene filmed at an airport I heard a familiar voice then saw that familiar face It was the legendary Mark Denis I had to grab a screen capture and send to you Like so many Mark was a wonderful friend and mentor to me in my early days in radio He is greatly missed It was sure nice to receive this ‘surprise’ visit from him from a bit part on an old tv show!” – Jim Governale Camarillo State Hospital Notoriety “Congratulations on your son’s graduating from college as well as you daughter’s wedding On Camarillo State Hospital both Charlie Parker and Billie Holiday spent some time there back in the day And on another thought I’m attaching a picture of my youngest granddaughter Scarlett It’s so wonderful getting to experience holding your

finally called us radio people on the butchering of the English language A few weeks back I heard an LA news anchor not on KNX refer to ‘Bing-HAM-ton’ a city in New York Maybe not difficult to mispronounce if you’ve never been there-or exposed to McHale’s Navy Several days later the same news anchor used a story about two military ships bumping into each other and she referred to the ‘Collusion’ of the vessels Here in SD we’re currently running a commercial about where to put your car when you’re flying out of the airport According to the spot it’s a convenient ‘Parkeen’ lot Parking without the ‘G’ Early on those of us in the eastern part of the country learned that ‘W’ was double -yew I guess since radio and tv stations west of the Mississippi start with a ‘K’ the use of the term ‘Dubba-Yew’ will live forever Thanks for your fun compelling content If you were a radio station you’d be 1 And congrats on becoming an ‘In-Law’” – Dave Mason Sunny 981 KXSN-San Diego
