Basically, radio hasn't changed over the years.

Always be consistent.

Despite all the technical improvements, it still boils down to a man or a woman and a microphone, playing music, sharing stories, talking about issues -- communicating with an audience.

Anytime in radio that you can reach somebody on an emotional level, you're really connecting.

I probably would be continuing to do voice-overs, continuing to do cartoon shows, and at the same time I'd probably be on a sitcom or a dramatic television show.

It's been amazing, the number of commercials that I've done, starting back in 1968. It must be 8,000.

We tell stories. We talk about statistics. And in 1978, we added an element of the show that gave it its heartbeat: the long distance dedication.
