Their experience allows others to see what they see -- a virtual WKRP in every market across the country. Personalities, promotions, formats, actual air checks of the nation's top radio stations of the last 60 years -- all facets are talked about, listened to, and discussed in this weekly podcast.

Episode #25: Salute to WKRP's Thanksgiving Episode -- Turkeys Away!
•
Terry
Surely you remember the most famous of all the WKRP episodes. Newsman Les Nesman reports from the Pinedale Mall with the stations latest promotion, which goes horribly wrong.
His reporting is classic in so many ways, especially when he yells, "Oh, the humanity!" And of course, Johnny Fever's classic response.......well, you just have to listen to it. Enjoy our Thanksgiving episode, and from Jim and I -- we sincerely hope your families Thanksgiving is the best one ever. Despite the current conditions.
