Dan Avey Arianna Ortiz Felicia Poetess Morris Johnny Morris and Buzz Bennett Last of Originators of American Top 40 Dies April 27 2018 Don Bustany died this week He was one of the last of the four original creators of the iconic American Top 40 “He was family to us and we got to spend time with him last weekend before he passed We got to talk and laugh and hug each other one last time” said Kerri Kasem daughter of Casey Kasem “Now he’s with his beloved wife Judy and my dad along with countless friends” He was 90 For those familiar with the recording of Casey’s outtakes from a recording session that have been widely circulated Don is forever immortalized in the phrase Get Don on the phone! Bustany had tv credits in addition to radio and shared Casey’s activism in support of the Arab community In the 1970s and ’80s Bustany was the camera coordinator and a director of The Bob Newhart Show and Mary Tyler Moore He also served as the technical coordinator on several other television programs Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars Great news from Michigan Art Vuolo radio’s best friend is the recipient of this year’s TALKERS Lifetime Achievement Award Well deserved With Art’s expertise a permanent exhibit on the history of the disc jockey is being prepared for museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago … Mary Beth Garber is now a published author “My first audiobook narration release is a heartfelt novel by Ann Meeropol Kinship of Clover It is available on Audible and Amazon … Fun tv news series on 1986 radio in Los Angeles Click radio link … Duane Eddy turned 80 this week Gads remember Rebel Rouser That twangy guitar was new to rock ’n’roll It came from Country … Good luck to Joel Denver for his AllAccess Worldwide Radio Summit 2018 next week Class guy makes class event! Steve Kamer hosts the Industry Awards Luncheon KIIS’ JoJo Wright will host the 2018 Premiere Networks Luncheon… Entercom’s Rhythmic station KSFM in Sacramento fired everyone and is looking to hire a new Rhythmic staff … CBS chief Leslie Moonves saw his executive compensation dip to 693 million …Don Imus has sold his ranch near Santa Fe for close to 19 million Who Got 1003/The Sound’s Listeners April 26 2018 When the March ’18 ratings were released earlier this month KM Richards noticed no movement in Classic Rock KLOS This was a surprise to some since 1003/The Sound was sold to a Christian outfit and abandoned Classic Rock There certainly was the opportunity for KLOS to seize some of those listeners who felt abandoned by the changeRichards ventured a guess that loyal Sound listeners did not flock to KLOS but rather to the eclectic Triple A format presented at 885 KCSN/KSBR I decided to approach the general manager of 885/fm if he had any insights into ratings considering the Cal State Northridge station does not subscribe to Nielsen PPM “I was told that there were two ties in recent trend 8 ties at 24 and 14 tied at 32!” Sky Daniels shot back “That basically says that once you get out of the Top 20 in an area of 14 million people one meter makes the difference between 22 and 40! Ridiculous and shameful for the industry” Sky proclaimed Criticism of the ratings industry is nothing new Unless you are 1 everyone seems to have concern over their accuracy “We have seen our online listening increase by 40” wrote Daniels “Social media postings reaching 2 million impressions and our current pledge drive is breaking all records including the week that Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were playing our first benefit which made history in the radio annals” Sky knows firsthand the seduction of striving to be 1 “I know talking about ratings can always sound like sour grapes However having developed stations like the Loop where one out of every two Chicago teens apparently listened to my show my question back then was wondering what the other teens were listening to I too have been seduced by the nectar that is 1 in the ratings Non-comm offers hope to those who want a deeper less predictable radio experience Listeners deserve better radio” “Having a listener donate 100 in an ‘honor system’ is way more compelling than ‘cume’” continued Daniels “When it comes to ratings sadly very few broadcasters look at the big picture For example when KSCA jumped from 32 to FIRST with the morning host taking just FOUR meters and set them to “hear” his show Ironically did the industry collectively revolt that four meters could impact the LA book that dramatically No They focused on ‘he cheated’” The LA Times wrote: “Nielsen has been attempting to verify that individuals who participated in its sample audience panel were truly independent and did not have ties to any radio stations or radio personalities that were being measured The ratings agency said that it needed to ‘remove a household from the panel for not meeting our quality standards’ Radio industry insiders said such actions were unprecedented One person said the move marked the first time in more than a decade that the release of radio ratings in Los Angeles had been postponed due to such concerns” Mark Ramsey a leading audio thinker wrote: “One single household has this scale of impact In LA! So what’s really going on here”“The rumor in the radio industry is that this particular household had media ties and the usage recorded was significant enough to skew the overall ratings for the market” wrote Ramsey “Indeed how could it be otherwise Because if one household mattered so little to the overall results then why would Nielsen bother to hold back the ratings for the entire market in the first place The very withholding of the data implies that one household has the potential to skew the whole in a significant way” Ramsey went on: “Ponder that for a moment: One household in Los Angeles has the potential to meaningfully skew the ratings for America’s largest market! And if this one household can do that in LA then can’t any one household in any market do it any time What does this say about the validity of the metrics Why is one goofy household with outlandish listening habits be any more goofy than any other goofy household with outlandish listening simply because it is affiliated with a local media company” Turns out it was two households involved but still Meanwhile Sky will continue to champion new music by emerging musicians as well as veteran artists resulting in shout-outs from A-list rockers including Paul McCartney Ringo Starr Tom Petty Jackson Browne U2 and Bonnie Raitt Sting added his name to that list saluting “… the station’s format for providing much appreciated exposure to him and other musicians who have fallen out of favor with Top 40 and other commercial radio outlets” KJLH Ticket Giveaway Roger Collins Dies April 25 2018 Roger Collins veteran of KFI 1978-83 KUTE 1983-87 and KLIT 1989-90 passed away April 23 of colon cancer John Rook hired Roger at KFI as music director and assistant pd Roger was thrilled to be working with the All-Star staff that Rook had assembled Born Paul Lancaster in Winslow Arizona he started his radio career in 1963 in Winslow followed by jobs in Holbrook Arizona and Odessa Texas From 1971 until arriving in the Southland Roger worked in the Tucson market He was sports director of KGUN/TV pd of KTKT and KRQQ Roger was director of instruction at the Los Angeles Broadcasters School during much of the 80s He was also operations director of Breneman Radio Services and the Breneman Review After returning to Arizona Roger produced video workshops for school kids at Northern Arizona University and was a consultant to Native American education radio for the Navajo Nation He also programmed KAFF FM/AM KMGN/fm KVNA-FM/AM and KZGL/fm He went on to sales in Flagstaff“Roger had only been sick for a couple of months” emailed colleague Jeffrey Leonard “Roger called me back in late February to tell me that the cancer had just been discovered and he was getting treated He had an incredibly positive attitude having beaten prostate cancer 10 years ago The last text I received from him was on April 9th when he simply said ‘thanks for being a great friend’ All texts after that went unanswered Roger reminded me a lot of Mark Denis He was an extraordinarily spiritual person who never said anything bad about anyone ever Needless to say I am heartbroken Rest in peace Rog” Roger was among the couple of dozen or so pros who taught at Jimi Fox’s broadcast school Los Angeles Broadcasters aka The LAB remembered Randy West When I was hired Roger indoctrinated me to the format yes of course Jimi had it tightly formatted!

Oldie April 23 2018 Rich Brother Robbin has been a friend since 1966 We share a love for Oldies music the kind of music made popular in the 50s and 60s We had the first full-time 24/7 live Oldies station in the country in Detroit at W4 in 1969 After his run on CHR/Oldies ran out he started his own radio station on the Internet at RichBroRadiocom We were talking about music recently when Rich posed a question that may be of fodder for you For those of you who still love Sam Cooke Fats Domino and Chuck Berry at what point in history did music change to something that doesn’t “fit” with what we know as “hardcore Oldies” When is a song no longer a legit Oldie something different than the stuff from the 70s “When / what is the general year / years when most of the songs changed enough to sonically stop fitting with the older stuff” asked Rich I came up with my own answer but thought I would share it after others have had an opportunity to also do so What do you think Don’t forget our email address has changed to: AvilaBeachdbgmailcom Nostalgia Sunday – 9 Years Ago Today Hats Off to Larry April 22 2009 You’d think Southern Californians would be used to earthquakes yet when the ground starts shaking many wary residents call in to their local radio stations perhaps as a catharsis to the unexpected Recently a listener to KNX could hear callers describe the latest seismic event whether it was a sharp jolt a brief rolling motion and for what duration But then there was something more The anchor briefly chatted with each caller – did anything fell off the kitchen shelves at the caller’s home Any jittery nerves from the aftershocks Was the caller a long-time local resident or was it a first experience with an earthquake Have a home emergency kit prepared It was just like talking to a caring neighbor only it was being broadcast on a 50000 watt radio station Then again when the news anchor once hosted a tv program called Help Thy Neighbor offering a personal touch to his listeners should be second nature for Larry Van Nuys When last interviewed by LARadiocom back in 1998 Larry said he’d decided to leave radio because of the precariousness of ongoing format changes “After a many years in radio and television I made the successful transition to a very lucrative career as a voice talent every day doing promos commercials and trailers much of it out of my home studio” said Larry There was really no pressing reason for him to return to radio Yet there was something missing “After ten or so years I missed the interaction with friends and co-workers I had been doing some fill-in news anchoring at Arrow 93 in morning drive When it made the switch to JACK/fm I called Ed Pyle KNX news director and told him I missed the excitement and challenges of radio He was so kind and generous and invited me to audition” Larry got the job as a weekend and fill-in anchor on the all-news station “In hiring me Ed gave me the opportunity to enter one of the most productive and satisfying chapters in this road many of us travel It has reawakened all the feelings of excitement that brought me into broadcasting in the first place” Larry also thanked former KNX gm David G Hall who put Larry in his current 7 pm to midnight news anchor duties each weeknight “Although it sounds cliché I wake up in the morning now and can’t wait to get to work It reminded me that what we do is meaningful…and fun!” Born in Providence Rhode Island Larry later moved to the Southland where he attended Los Angeles High School He recalls how important radio was from his earliest years “Radio was always a big part of my life As a youngster I listened to all the radio serial shows I remember sending away for a decoder ring so I could decode secret messages I waited for what seemed like months and then the excitement of going to the mailbox and seeing that little package … sitting there saying ‘OK big guy…now you’re in the in-crowd!’” Then it was Chuck Blore and KFWB Channel 98 on Larry’s radio dial “I always treasure the fact that later in life I actually got a chance to be directed for some spots by the architect of Color Radio Chuck Blore Larry also listened to KHJ as “Boss Radio and all the other iterations of modern radio flowed out of all our speakers day and night as I grew up” How did Larry first get interested in pursuing his own radio career “While the other kids were playing baseball I was playing dj using a wooden spoon for my microphone I actually ripped off all the labels of my mother’s canned food and pretended they were earphones For months she never knew what she was opening for dinner … she still kids me about that” Eventually Larry’s parents purchased him a Webcor tape recorder “and I was off to the races” His first job was at Saul Levine’s fm jazz station KBCA “I’ll always be grateful to Saul who gave me my first chance to do what I always dreamed of” Back then Larry’s audience was a bit limited “To even hear fm you had to have a special under-dash radio or if you really had some bucks you had a Blaupunkt installed in your car We didn’t have a lot of listeners or commercials … but I was finally a dj! My dear grandparents who would really be more comfortable with Montovani listened every night because they loved and were proud of me They could tell you the difference between Thelonius Monk and Chet Baker…bless their souls” Larry’s grandparents listened to their grandson at every opportunity “too bad we didn’t have the PPM’s in those years” Larry then traveled to KXO in El Centro doing just about everything at the station from powering up the transmitter to helping with janitorial duties “One of the proudest tasks I was assigned at KXO was to bring in the Richfield Reporter on Sunday nights which was fed from KNX in Los Angeles It was so exciting to be involved with a major market giant like that I never dreamed that I would ever get to actually work there What a trip it is to even remember the awe I felt and still feel for the station” One of Larry’s first stops in Los Angeles was KGFJ “I worked there with Hunter Hancock Rosko Bill Mercer and Larry McCormick et al On the day I auditioned I went into the studio to cut a demo and when I came out no one was around I found everyone gathered around a tv in a back office I asked what’s going on ‘Someone said the President’s been shot’ I actually remember saying ‘the President of what’ That was the day JFK was shot and killed I guess this falls into ‘Everyone remembers where they were that day’” Though Larry worked at other local stations including powerhouses such as KFI KMPC and KABC he is often best remembered from his days as the midday host on San Fernando’s KGIL “It was the best of times…this little low power teapot in the Valley was actually competing with the big 50000 watt giant KMPC In those days we chose our own music” KGIL did what it could to make itself visible “I sat in a broadcast trailer on the weekends doing remotes I think I opened every Taco Bell in the Valley One remote that still makes me smile is when I MC’d the opening of a new traffic light in Encino But I loved it!” The station also invited listeners to vicariously share with the KGIL family LA Times ad promoting Larry in the late 1960s “We did live reports from our wedding I did a remote from the hospital when my daughter was born I put together a one hour montage of music to reflect how happy I felt that day and the listeners were part of it” Larry’s colleagues at KGIL include many renowned personalities: “Sweet” Dick Whittington Tom Brown Wink Martindale and Paul Compton “all led brilliantly by Chuck Southcott” Larry fondly remembers when Paul Compton would offer the lyrical intro “we’re coming to the intersection of Compton and Van Nuys… Paul was an amazing and poetic man of great depth and character which came across on the air” “Larry had a great sense of the music His sense of the music was amazing Larry did some long shifts when he first started at KGIL doing 8-hour weekend and fill-ins yet he did a great job orchestrating his program over all that time” said Chuck Southcott Larry’s former colleague and program director Chuck chuckled as he told the story of the Studio City Christmas Parade for which Larry and Chuck served as emcees from an announcing booth “It was a terribly rainy day The grand marshal was Andy Griffith we went out with a mic and had him greet the crowd Then there were a number of female stars who were headed for the Queen Mary Larry went out in the street – in a pair of Gucci shoes – and talked to Carol Channing about what she was doing now a little bit about her career Why does Chuck always bring up the Guccis mused Larry There were other stars then Judy Garland appears Wait a minute we thought – Judy Garland is dead Turns out these starlets we interviewed were men dressed up as women female impersonators heading for a nightclub called the ‘Queen Mary’ not the ship in Long Beach It was a very strange night I shared with Larry” Of Larry’s current work Chuck said “he’s the best sounding news guy in town … he’s great on KNX” This series was researched and written by LARadiocom senior correspondent Alan Oda In part 2 of “Hats off to Larry” more tales from KGIL including the recollections of Dick Whittington Larry’s tv work including – of course – Help Thy Neighbor voiceover work with Aaron Spelling Productions serving the Arthritis Foundation and more about what he enjoys today doing Newsradio You can reach Larry Van Nuys at: larryvngmailcom Larry Van Nuys has been a familiar face on tv for decades and now evening anchor at KNX Newsradio LARadiocom senior correspondent Alan Oda talks with Larry about his career This is part two of our series Hats Off to Larry “Larry contributed many musically perfect shows at KGIL” said Dick Whittington Of Larry’s on-air persona “he’s was what Dr Phil would like to be Larry did it first on Channel 5 for many years” And Dick still tunes in to hear his former KGIL teammate “When Larry reads the news on KNX no matter how dire I always smile and say to myself: ‘Oh that couldn’t be happening that’s just ol’ ‘Lar’ going for another Edward R Murrow award” Van Nuys holding award from Arthritis organization for his two decade dedication in hosting annual telethon For his part Larry has his own story about the man once known as ‘Sweet Dick’ “He was finishing up his shift and called my wife Marsha and made it sound as though the call accidentally got on the air and said ‘well the jerk is going to be on the air for 5 hours so I’ll be over in about 20 minutes is there anything you want me to bring’ Marsha said without missing a beat ‘Kleenex’ Bill Smith late of KTLA who used to work with Dick in the morning still tells that story” Larry was also prominent on that other medium known as television “I had the good fortune to work at KTLA when Gene Autry owned it Given his stature and prominence globally it was amazing to watch him take the time to know everyone’s name on the lot and foster an environment that encouraged creative people to be their best” He recalls his days hosting the tv show Help Thy Neighbor “It was a live show that aired at 7:30 pm every night following Bowling for Dollars with Chick Hearn It was a show where people who needed some help would appear and the audience would call in with solutions It was live on the air I couldn’t possibly share all the amazing and emotional stories that played out on the air We found solutions for everything from people who needed a kidney to finding work for an unemployed elephant … I kid you not!” The show received national attention in publications including Newsweek Readers Digest and TV Guide as well as winning “a wheel barrow full” of prestigious awards Larry takes pleasure recalling his charity work during his years at KTLA “I co-hosted the national Arthritis Telethon for over 20 years often originating from the KTLA studios but also from other locales nationwide I would love to think that some of our efforts funded research that eased suffering or passed on information that alerted people of warning signs that helped them avoid years of chronic pain” His efforts on behalf of the Arthritis Foundation gave him the opportunity to work with many celebrities including the late Mayor of Hollywood Johnny Grant “One of the proudest moments for me was to be honored with the Arthritis Foundation’s Johnny Grant Humanitarian Award” said Larry Photo from mid-80s: Participants in early Arthritis Telethon include Victoria Principal Jane Wyman Larry and Marsha Van Nuys “I also hosted the forerunner to Wheel of Fortune called Guessword It was the same game Hangman but without the wheel and Vanna Also we didn’t give away trips to Europe or shiny new automobiles … it was more like dog food and hand towels It did however have the distinction of being maybe the only live game show in history” Larry would later become the voice of KTLA which led to other voiceover opportunities His game show hosting talents weren’t later wasted “Hosting Guessword helped me immensely when Dan Enright asked me to do the announcing for shows like Tic Tac Dough From there my skills grew and I found a whole new venue for my talent when Mike McLean an associate of Aaron Spelling hired me to voice his shows during the years he spent with ABC…Dynasty…The Love Boat…et al” But his voiceover career all started at KTLA “I will be forever grateful to Tony Cassara the gm of Channel 5 at the time He became the President of the Paramount Stations Group and opened up a whole new world of voiceover opportunities for me” Still it’s clear that Larry’s heart is still found behind a radio microphone “Radio is immediate intimate and ultimately a one on one relationship between you and someone who’s stuck in traffic at the workplace or streaming on the Internet in Timbuktu … it’s just the two of you” He describes the challenges of working at KNX “In News Radio it’s also vital and important work when people are concerned or fearful during an earthquake fire or an emergency when accurate information can be the difference between life and death I can’t begin to tell you how gratifying it feels to play a small but important part in that effort” Larry knows the challenges of providing information 24 hours a day Photo: An 11-year-old Larry Van Nuys as the ‘Borden’s Milkman’ with Kathy Godfrey sister of Arthur Godfrey KPHO-Phoenix “With the fast moving changing events around the world people have a hunger for news and all of us at KNX take that responsibility very seriously All the other broadcast disciplines are seductive in their own ways but they all have one thing in common – they are all about communicating they’re all about trying to identify your own truth and connecting with the people who are spending their valuable time with you” Hats Off to Larry Part 3 This morning is the final installment of our series on KNX Newsradio’s Larry Van Nuys This series was researched and written by Alan Oda LARadiocom senior correspondent Larry’s current boss KNX / KFWB director of news programming Andy Ludlum describes what Larry brings to the all-News operation: Larry is a warm and authentic communicator and I think that really comes through every time he turns on his mic There’s no question Larry truly enjoys being on the radio and the KNX 1070 Newsradio audience loves listening to him Would you like to see Larry delivering the news Here’s a 3-minute YouTube link: And it’s apparent that Larry is one veteran not content to sit on his laurels “My challenge is keeping it fresh and honest To make something that’s difficult look effortless It has taken me a lifetime to find my own voice in this business…and I’m still learning” He relates how he brings his experience honed on music formats to his all-news anchor duties at KNX “I think the trust that an audience has with you is a key element in the success of any broadcaster It takes years for an audience to really get to know you feel like a friend and for that trust to develop Also no matter what kind of radio you’re doing there needs to be an entertainment component Even with news I think your unique personality is a big part of the product and has a bearing on its ultimate success” Larry speaks with great appreciation and pride about his family “Much of my success can be linked to my wonderful family My wife Marsha has not only been my partner for 40 years but my number one groupie pal and lover She has been a fan from the very beginning and always been there to watch my back in the good times and the lean times I’m also so proud of my daughter Amanda She has taken her Vassar education and blossomed into a truly amazing young woman As I’ve told her if there is such a thing as reincarnation I would love to come back as one of her children She is now a marketing executive at a major company in the Internet space” Larry Van Nuys eating crow after losing a 1980 Super Bowl bet with a Pittsburgh radio station The Rams lost to the Steelers 31 – 19 Larry humbly acknowledges his blessings from his on-air journey “We are all influenced by those who came before us For me Johnny Magnus was my hero…I wanted to be that great someday It still shocks me that I’ve had so many opportunities to know and work with some of the iconic figures in our business Sitting in for Ken amp Bob at KABC … Dick Whittinghill and Robert W Morgan at KMPC … following Lohman and Barkley at KFI These are the people I grew up admiring These are the people that remind me that excellence isn’t achieved without hard work and a love and respect for the audience Again how wonderful it is when you get to do what you love … I still have the passion” You can reach Larry at: larryvngmailcom Email Saturday 42118 Times Moving “Great seeing the photo of Bob McCormick on today’s page He’s a guy I miss

reprinting the Johnny Hayes story Growing up I shared many of the same thoughts and excitement about radio that Johnny enjoyed to the point that I became a huge fan of KYA living in Palo Alto I wanted to attend college in SoCal partially because of the radio business Dreams became reality when Johnny gave me my first job in life at the wondrous KRLA in 1968! What a life experience My business path was set thanks to him” – Ann Beebe Remembering Johnny Hayes “Thank you for the LARadiocom Nostalgia Sunday piece on Johnny Hayes I wasn’t a regular KRLA listener during my younger days in the West Valley — KMPC was our regular station during my most impressionable listening years — but when listening alone with the dial at arm’s length I’ve rarely been able resist the impulse to tune the dial to see what else is on There are many ways for a radio station to capture my ears but among the rarest is the voice that I could just sit and listen to regardless of what he or she is saying The voice of Johnny Hayes was one of those voices as they say what a great set of pipes As a radio listener I would sometimes fantasize being a program director There were three disc jockeys I wanted for my imaginary station: Johnny Magnus Chuck Niles and Johnny Hayes each playing whatever he wanted as long as he talked between each record I’m glad to read more about the man with that voice And since I’m writing over the years I’ve really enjoyed LARadiocom which my dad from whom I must have received a radio-listener gene will still bring up pretty regularly when I speak with my folks of the phone Growing up we almost always had the radio on — Bob Crane Arthur Godfrey Denny Bracken etc – on KNX when I was a young boy I got my first radio around the 3rd grade first listening to KFI I think KNX was all-News by then I switched to KMPC not long after Lohman and Barkley came about — hey I was 9!

Back at my friend’s house we were drinking beer and listening to the radio Unbeknownst to me he dialed the station in hopes of talking to Art After a while he had to relieve himself so he tossed me the phone and said ‘hang on to this for a second’ Before heading to the john he cranked up the volume as far as it would go I sat there holding the receiver to my ear and with the radio blasting I think I barely hear someone say ‘you’re on the air’ I said ‘I’m sorry what’ and then Art went ballistic shouting ‘HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU PEOPLE TO TURN DOWN YOUR RADIOS!!’ Then I heard the phone go CLICK and he hung up Seven seconds later my friend exists the bathroom to hear Art shouting at me over the air and he yells at me ‘I was on hold for 45 minutes and the second I go to the bathroom he takes my call’ Several years later I was listening in LA and heard my friend on the air with Art so at least he finally got through Oh and about those songs I dropped off for bumper-music one was by violinist Jean-Luc Ponty and the other by a group named Shadowfax Art used them for years on the air” – Gary Gibson Montrose Is KLOS Sound “I note that even with EMF removing 1003 as a competitor KLOS’ ratings are flat In my not-so-humble opinion this should be sending a message to Cumulus that they aren’t doing Classic Rock properly for the market Their ‘brand’ of the format apparently appeals to zero percent of The Sound’s former audience I bet they’re all listening to Sky Daniels’ well-executed AAA format on KCSN” – KM Richards Radio Ink Article Praising KABC PD “Good job Drew Hayes!

original host of “Coast to Coast AM” heard locally on KFI had died on Friday the 13th He was 72 No matter what you might have thought about what Art talked about – and that included the paranormal abstract conspiracies and the world of UFOs – Art was a radio original Broadcasting from a double-wide trailer in the Nevada desert for more than two decades Art talked to his listeners in the middle of the night about their stories of alien abductions crop circles anthrax scares and as he put it all things “seen at the edge of vision” While serving in the US Air Force in the Vietnam War Art indulged his childhood passion for radio by operating a pirate station that played anti-war music otherwise unavailable on official channels broadcast to American servicemen Following his time in the service Art’s love of radio led him to working as a disc jockey for an English-language station in Japan Over there he set a Guinness World Record for broadcasting some 116 hours straight to raise funds to rescue over 100 Vietnamese orphans left stranded by the conflict in their home country Back in the states Art started his radio journey doing overnights on KDWN in Las Vegas Syndicated nationally in 1993 Coast to Coast AM became a phenomenon He frequently would end up on the yearly list of Best LARP Art drew an audience of about 10 million listeners a week when his show was syndicated on as many as 500 stations He believed in possibilities and he loved the idea that his openness to paranormal events had helped build the nation’s appetite for Twin Peaks The X-Files and other expressions of the edges of reality Born June 17 1945 in Jacksonville NC Art grew up with a seven-transistor AM radio tucked under his pillow at night When he was supposed to be sleeping Art listened instead to the pioneers of talk radio as they batted around alternative ideas about who really killed John F Kennedy or how the CIA controlled people’s minds His nightly “Coast to Coast” show ran from 1989 to 2003 then he continued broadcasting on weekends until 2007 Art briefly returned with a satellite radio show in 2013 and an online program in 2015 That show ended after a few months because Mr Bell said someone had taken to firing a weapon at his Nevada property Art was married four times At the time of his death he was married to Airyn Ruiz whom he met when she befriended him online after the death of his previous wife Ruiz was then 22 and living in the Philippines Bell was inducted into the Nevada Broadcasters Association Hall of Fame in 2006 and the National Radio Hall of Fame in 2008 Nostalgia Sunday – 12 Years Ago Today Johnny Hayes Be Good April 15 2006 Johnny Hayes has been part of LA Radio in five decades His unique and distinctive voice and presentation was part of the landscape at Top 40 KRLA and Oldies KRTH for most of that time For decades lunch was never lunch without Johnny’s “Big 11” countdown show His life story is filled with major tent poles the envy of any personality The legendary program director Bill Drake hired Johnny at WAKE-Atlanta on Johnny’s 21st birthday Johnny Bill Drake and Paul Drew were all on the air at WAKE together in 1961 Johnny was on the stage as part of the KRLA jock line-up at the Beatles concerts at the Hollywood Bowl and Dodger Stadium In 1983 and 1984 he won Billboard’s Personality of the Year and was the only non-morning drive winner in 1984 In the next few days you’ll read about his fascinating life the influence of Art Laboe on his career the week he was fired only to be rehired before the week was out and how the pd that fired him was himself fired his friendship with Bill Drake KRLA as the “Avis” of Top 40 radio always trying harder behind KFWB or KHJ the role that Emperor Bob Hudson play in his life and life without K-EARTH “A very vivid early recollection of radio was sitting with my mama my daddy and my grandparents around the radio listening to Gabriel Heater who gave war news in World WarII” reminisced Johnny over lunch at a trendy restaurant in North Hollywood “Listening to the war news was very very important Radio stations would normally broadcast orchestras or bands from hotels and big showrooms live on the air When WWII ended I’d say from 1945 on the Big Bands were touring but it came to a point where it was no longer practical or economical to get 40 50 60 people in buses and take them around the country to broadcast live and be on radio stations And it was during this period the live band broadcasts gave way to more radio dramas and serials – ‘The Shadow’ ‘The Lone Ranger’ ‘Gangbusters and those shows It seems to me it was in the early 50s that I started hearing what later became known as disc jockeys” As a youngster Johnny used to press his ear up against the speaker of the family radio and he discovered that records sounded different according to what jock had played them “I started paying more and more attention to disc jockeys I visited a radio station in my hometown – Macon Georgia – met the program director and started hanging around the station” remembered Johnny “That’s the great thing about being born in a small town You could hang around a station and sit in the booth with a guy I was hired without any experience to do a show on a Saturday because the program director and his wife were having a party and he didn’t have anybody to take his place He put me on the air with no experience and that was the most terror I had ever known The records seemingly lasted for 5 seconds and I was so scared that I would not only let records run out but there were other records that no sooner did they start that I would pick the arm off of them while they were playing You’re laughing” He acknowledged that he has a recurring dream to this day – about being on the air at a station and everything going wrong “You can’t reach the mike switch Or you can’t get back the studio in time There was one thing I could never do and that is read 60 second live commercials And in my dreams I’m always given dozens of 60 second spots to read which are impossible In the 50s – and I went on the air in 1959 – they had to do a 15 minute world news round-up at the top of the hour and at the half hour there were 5 minute newscasts Well that was 20 minutes of news all live by the disc jockey There were hundreds of words I didn’t know how to pronounce There was a great deal of news during the late 50s about Patrice Lumumba and news people in Africa There was nobody that worked at the station that knew enough about world events to be able to even pronounce the words either They would just strike them out I would get to Patrice Lumumba and I would just blaze right over the record and go from the word before his name to the word after Sometimes on a newscast I would say ‘It’s June 35th 1959’ I never know what would come out of my mouth” Johnny’s grandfather was a cotton farmer in South Georgia Johnny’s dad attended the University of Georgia He was with the Georgia Power Company for almost 40 years Johnny’s father grew up in a little town called Sasser Georgia which coincidentally was next to a small town called Dawson the birthplace of Otis Redding “My mother was from another small town in Georgia Cochran and somehow they met in Macon and that’s where I was born in 1939” said Johnny “I never asked them or if I did I forgot how they met But in those days in the ‘30s people met at dances and things like that” Johnny said his parents had a wonderful marriage “They loved each other terribly I’m very grateful that I had the parents that I did There was no drinking in the house My mom spent all day long trying to make life a little more pleasant for daddy and me She’d get up at 6 or 7 in the morning and start shelling peas and start cooking You know in the South they start cooking around 9 10 11 in the morning for a 7 o’clock dinner You smell it all day long” He lost his mother first “She died in 1973 of pancreatic cancer Never been sick a day in her life She had the strength of a horse” said Johnny “One day she got sick and it was cancer Then my daddy lived until 1984 and he died of lung cancer though he had not smoked in over 40 years No I don’t know if the damage had already been done like Don Steele had not smoked in many decades yet he died of lung cancer Now I haven’t had a cigarette in 31 years and I recently told my doctor that I was losing so many friends and going to so many funerals and I told him ‘My friends are just dropping left and right none of them smoked none of them drank’ And he said ‘What should I do’ And I said ‘I’d like to have some X-rays done on my chest to see if I’ve got any problem’ Came out clean as a whistle…no damage from cigarettes Neither my mama nor my daddy had ever been sick a day in their life until they got sick and died” Johnny’s father never understood radio or his son’s success “My daddy was the son of a cotton farmer and he thought I should go to work for AS Hatcher Company which was a wholesale hardware company as a salesman He said ‘Those guys make good money’ I mean radio was all that was ever on my mind I didn’t know you could just walk into a station and luck had it that the guy had to go home and he put me on the air But that’s how my career started My daddy never understood it We had a conversation in 1963 when I was at KYA in San Francisco and he said ‘Johnny don’t you understand if you went to work at AS Hatcher Company you could be driving a nice car now’ And I said “Well daddy I have a new Cadillac Coupe DeVille and he just couldn’t grasp that you could be on the radio and get paid for it He wanted me to go to school and all sorts of things But I saved him a lot of money by not going to college in Georgia” Email Saturday

Scott I am Not a Victim – Larry Gifford April 13 2018 Wednesday was World Parkinson’s Day and it was the day that Larry Gifford former program director at KSPN announced for the first time publicly that he has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease Larry starts his story with an observation from his son: “Daddy why’s your arm shaking” That question came one January night in 2017 “My outstretched arm was trying to hand my eight-year-old son a glass of water It was shaking uncontrollably I wouldn’t have an answer for my son for seven months when I was diagnosed His diagnosis officially arrived last August after months of tests to eliminate much scarier and deadly diseases “My symptoms were a disparate collection annoyances a shuffling foot-dragging walk tremors in my arm loss of coordination and balance and difficulties speaking sleeping and focusing sometimes I never linked the symptoms as one thing I assumed I was tired or my shoes were too heavy or I was just out of shape By the time I was diagnosed I probably had been battling the disease for a decade Symptoms began appearing three or four years ago and through those undiagnosed years doctors tell me I lost approximately eight per cent of my brain cells” Parkinson’s is a relentless degenerative disorder of the central nervous system It directly impacts nerves that handle motor functions for the body as a whole As the disease advances the body slows down arms and legs stiffen and shake with a whole slew of fun surprises arising “For me each day is different I take pills four to five times each day which control my tremors My whole right side is slower than my left The delay causes a shuffle drag or clomp in my walk and I can’t really run anymore without increasing my chances of a face plant not that I ran much to begin with” Read Larry’s honest details of what is happening with him Larry says he and his family create new memories each day that he hopes aren’t stolen by Parkinson’s In other

Being Set Up April 12 2018 Rich Lieberman watches over all things media in the Bay Area His ear is uncanny about what is going on Twice last week he heard syndicated Talker Michael Savage based in San Francisco say on the air in case I’m not here you can always get me on my website Facebook and Twitter Could Cumulus be screwing with him wondered Lieberman “More to the point could Savage be their latest cost-cutting victim It happened to Don Imus in NY it also effectively ended Ronn Owens run in the Bay Area after 42 years and there’s more cost-cutting on the way Why Cumulus is in the midst of a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy proceeding and is letting go of high-priced air talent those who make over six-figures are supposedly high on the hit list” Savage offered a terse no comment when Lieberman asked Savage via phone about the speculation about the conservative talker’s future He did indicate that his numbers are consistently high especially his streaming numbers Said Lieberman: “Oh Savage’s contract is up before the end of the year Might this be the opening round of negotiations – after all Cumulus will have a sufficient amount of operating cash after its BK is settled although that’s still being litigated by a judge who might not care about broadcast ratings Time will tell” News Is the Pitts Subscribers to LARadio received via email the news about the passing of VO agent Don Pitts

self-described mental health self-care Ryder had posted: “Unfortunately Bean is taking a medical leave We don’t have any more information but we’ll let you know as soon as we can” In response FedHedge posted: “What’s weird is that you thekevinryder have been working with Bean for over 20 years and yet you act like you have no idea what’s going onWTF What kind of dick are you Sounds like Bean got Garman’d” the last comment referring to the recently dismissed entertainment reporter This prompted Ryder to reply: “The kind that believes Bean is a human being And his medical leave is his business Not yours no matter how entitled you believe you are” Kevin’s pithy response was just the beginning FedHedge then received a number of annoyed and angry reactions from the Kevin amp Bean audience “So this is what a Twitter Storm is like Wow! Guess I’m the Dick on this one! Sorry Kev Dog I think I jumped to conclusions too quickly I assumed Bean’s ‘mental health’ was code for something more nefarious I’m a fan of the show and would hate to see it go the way of M amp B Mark amp Brian” Ryder appeared to accept the apology tweeting: “Thx for the response I really appreciate it : Just trying to send love and support to Bean” Hear Ache Condolences to Steve Futterman heard frequently on KNX on the loss of his mother “She lived a long life but at the end was in extreme pain and made the choice to die She was loved by many and impacted many of our lives We will miss her every day” wrote the CBS network correspondent … Scott Thrower was at KBIG in the late 90s When he left the Southland he worked mornings at KURB-Little Rock for six years until late summer of 2006 “In Aug 2008 I left radio for a career in medicine and am with a large hospital in Little Rock” he wrote at 440int “Even on my worst days as an RN there’s not been even one time when I’ve thought ‘Why did I leave radio’” … Reports out of Chicago suggest Ed Lover ex-KKBT morning man will be the new morning personality at WBMX “1043 Jams” He gained national attention as host of Yo!

Ago This Month We Crossed the Line – Bill Handel April 2012 There is a sea change at Clear Channel’s talk operations in Los Angeles After suffering massive outcries from black and Hispanic groups following what were deemed inappropriate comments by Rush Limbaugh and John amp Ken on KFI the company initiated a three-week series on 1150AM KTLK called Diverse LA Every day a new talk show guest host joined Morris O’Kelly publisher of The Mo’Kelly Report The guest hosts ranged from comedians to attorneys cultural leaders to activists It was never clear if the guests were auditioning or the program was a knee-jerk reaction to respond in a positive way to the cries from the Hispanic Alliance and the Black Media Alliance During the final hour of the three-week 45-hour series some things became clear KFI’s Bill Handel joined Mo Kelly and talked about the need for changes in Talk radio and how far the line of good taste had moved “The talk show host used to be a moderator and very old school And then a guy by the name of Rush Limbaugh came and totally reinvented Talk radio I think Rush is totally whacked out of his mind – politically and in terms of self-aggrandizement – but a great broadcaster How many times can you hear that Barack Obama kidnapped the Lindbergh baby I’m up to here with that” quipped Bill “but Rush reinvented radio where the talk show host interacts with the audience” Handel said that this newfound freedom turned into “shock” radio “The line kept on moving” said Bill “and you got to the point of a Howard Stern where you got to insane sexual innuendos and he was really out there sexually” As this new freedom quickly evolved Handel said everybody became a target – race religion – and it was wide open “We’ve now come back The pendulum has come back because it went too far The ratings kept on building KFI a predominately white conservative audience loved hearing it You could attack everything and the audience went nuts” Even with KFI’s success there was no thought of pulling back on the rhetoric because “the ratings were too big too great too much money was being made and it was too much fun to say things as a Talk show host that you couldn’t even say at a cocktail party amongst friends” said Bill “That was the state of radio and it made a lot of money The line just kept going and going and then you had comments by John amp Ken and Rush” Morris O’Kelly asked how Bill kept from losing himself with everything that was going on “You don’t” Bill answered candidly “You love yourself in all of that You are part of the movement You see it happen I love being outrageous It’s fun The line keeps on moving It wasn’t a question of not seeing it happen I didn’t even care to look at it But it was thrown in our face during the last two months” “Talk Radio is going to pull back and just not be so outrageous” declared Bill Handel in this far-ranging interview with Morris O’Kelly on KTLK Friday morning the final hour of the three-week ‘Diverse LA’ promotion “We are going to have to incorporate many more voices It has to go from a bunch of conservative white guys to include women to include African Americans and to include Hispanics When you have a HUGE Latino population you can’t run a Talk station without being inclusive It’s impossible in this day and age And it shouldn’t be There are too many members that are not represented” Bill said there were some new rules “I can’t make fun of blacks the way I used to I can’t make fun of Protestants the way I used to The group I get a pass with is Jews because I am Jewish and I get a pass on gays because I have been so pro-gay for so many years With my surrogacy business I have helped so many gays have children through the help of surrogate mothers” O’Kelly wondered if Air America had a chance to come back “No” barked Bill “And that has more to do with the fact it was boring radio In the end it has to be entertaining radio There are a lot more liberals out there that should be listening to Talk radio but don’t because it is so damn boring” At the end of the hour and the conclusion of the KTLK ‘Diverse LA’ series Mo Kelley announced that he would be taking over a two-hour KFI shift on Saturday nights beginning at 6 pm On Sunday on KFI KTLK’s David Cruz will also host a two-hour show from 6 pm – 8 pm Email Saturday Groaner “Just to let you know it’s been a long time since I’ve had a ‘groaner’ this big!” – Mike Sakellarides More Groans “Been meaning to drop a line and tell you how great your daily cartoons are It’s hard to keep the funny stuff comin’ every day but you’re doin’ it they always get at least a big smile out of me and sometimes all the way up to a huge laugh” – Rich Brother Robbin Ribbit “Was that sign on the right stolen from the parking lot of KFRG in the IE” – KM Richards Potpourri “Of course I had to laugh at reading the April 1998 ‘Nostalgia Sunday’ bit I remember great April Fool’s bits used to be common and could last all day KRTH supposedly went all-News one year until 12 pm They were pretty good at it The ‘John Sebastian – KZLA’ one is hilarious considering KZLA went from Pop/Rock to Country to Arrow I even used to go to the Movie Nights KZLA hosted and gave my best friend a ‘KZLA Card’ from one of the special events She won a Fiat with it! Two months later they went Country Sad thing was the staff was one of the best from ‘Natural’ Neil Ross to Fritz Coleman Then the Country staff brought in great talent like Barbara Barri and Ken Cooper and was ‘must-listen’ for their broad and eclectic playlist Still miss that lineup” – Julie Byers Flanagan in the David G Hall of Fame “When I was 11 or 12 I would listen to the radio and marvel at how they always seemed to play my favorite song whenever I tuned in and how the dj always seemed to be talking only to me no matter where I was or what I was doing One of the guys I would spend hours and hours listening to just passed away John Mack Flanagan was the afternoon drive guy at KFRC in San Francisco The music he played was the soundtrack of my youth and his voice and style of talking up records was its narration It was because of listening to him and a handful of others that one day I decided radio was for me picked up the phone and started my career Once I took a 3-hour bus ride into The City just to be in the studio with him for about five minutes while he worked Other than that I never got to meet him thank him or tell him of his influence on me and what would turn out to be my lifelong career In my little circle of friends here on Facebook I see a lot of tributes and comments I realize that there were many kids who he influenced and who ended up in radio as a result There are a lot us standing on his shoulders I love that I hope he knew that before he passed” – David G Hall Welcome Home Brother John “John Flanagan was great on the air one of the best ever but he was a better person as a friend I knew John for more than 25 years and although his last few years were a struggle through a multitude of health issues his spirit was always strong and his faith and courage never wavered Welcome home brother” – David Ferrell Jackson Bay Area Radio Museum amp Hall of Fame Flanagan an Ole Cowpoke “John Mack Flanagan was named after Western movie actor Johnny ‘Mack’ Brown 1904-1974 Flanagan hosted the Church of The Hollywood B Cowboy podcast on Cowpoke Radio KWPX All ten episodes can be heard here” – Steve Thompson Bad Company “I wanted to clear up something that was in your Monday piece on Academy President John Bailey You mentioned that both Bailey and Ryan Seacrest were alleged to have committed illegal or inappropriate acts and that Bailey had just been cleared by the board at the Academy Next you quoted Peter Bart of Deadline who wondered ‘Even though he has been cleared will Bailey effectively ever be cleared Or will he fade into the Ryan Seacrest-like grey zone where charges are vehemently denied and yet tacitly believed’ This is not fair to Mr Bailey but neither was the original report by Variety that stated he had been charged by three accusers on the same day In fact there was only one accuser Comparing the allegations against Bailey with those against Seacrest is also unfair as we have heard from several accusers ed note … Fact check: Isn’t there only one Seacrest accuser with a witness that supports her allegation with vivid accounts of abuse and inappropriate behavior by Mr Seacrest which may in fact be untrue but nobody has heard any charges against Mr Bailey other than a memo Bailey sent to the Academy He corrected the leaked and inaccurate story of there being only one accuser and that the accusation was that he had attempted to touch someone inappropriately while in a transit van on a location more than a decade ago When you put Bailey and Seacrest in the same sentence they get lumped together The merits or discrediting of either of the accusations get blurred together which is not only unfortunate but unwarranted” – Gary Gibson Montrose Whole ‘Nuther Thing “Terrific to see you back at it even in an abbreviated fashion Hope things are well with you and your family Still doing my thing but now relegated to HD2 since the KCSN / KSBR merger on 885 My archive site at podomaticcom however is thriving to the tune of 2000 plus Downloads amp Listens each week Terrestrial Radio done well is still a viable medium and for most Baby Boomers it’s still the only way to

station KBOQ in Monterey I ran it like an AC and we had a 1 25-54 book which drove the market nuts” For the past half-dozen years he has been at a Country station back east until his first tumor deadened his left leg last summer A GoFundMe account has been set up to help secure a wheelchair van Or maybe you have one that has served its purpose Well Bean KROQ’s Bean was a no-show at the April
