32. My dental practice looks directly
onto the top of the building where his show was taped for years and years here in Philly. My building used to have a luncheonette, and it was not unusual to sit down at the counter next to Tony Bennett or Rip Taylor, or even john and Yoko once. He had moved here from Cleveland in the infamous KYW-TV/WRCV-TV double switcheroo which from a broadcaster's perspective, was fascinating. It involved an FCC ruling that the original move had been against the rules. Not to digress from the OP, but there was a fellow named Gary Gears who was with WRCV and KYW for decades as the voice-over and studio announcer. Part of the deal was that he and a couple others were guaranteed jobs for life I believe.

Anyway, Mike ran a decent show and through some very interesting times. Yes and Tiger Woods was on with Bob Hope and I believe, Bing Crosby, but I could be wrong about the latter. Definitely Hope, though.
