Well, it's been pushed up...

I mentioned in a previous blog that Don & Mike Show co-host Don Geronimo would retire in May. Well, he moved his retirement up to today, April 11.

What a lucky guy... he's had his share of bad luck and decisions (drugs, bouncing from city to city in radio, then the death of his wife three years ago), and good luck (awesome ratings for 30+ years). The show was compelling, and I never had the chance to listen as much as I wanted to... the show's website was taken down, and all I have is the WJFK website's podcast page to rely on.

The other half of the show, Mike O'Meara, will continue on with the show, along with the rest of the show's cast.

Happy retirement, Don. Like it or not, you inspired this kid to get into radio. I'll never be the guy-talk kind of host you are, but your passion has little equal in this biz.

Buckle Up,
TS
