Mitch Michaels: When Radio was Fun and Creative

Mitch Michaels talks about what it was like to work in Chicago radio when it was still fun and creative. He worked in Cleveland and at some of the most popular stations in Chicago, including WLUP (The Loop), WCKG, WDAI, and WGLD, and talks about Don Imus, Steve Dahl, Disco Demolition, and getting fired numerous times.

He also talks about The Who concert that was simulcast on The Loop, which had never been done before. You can hear all the promos from that event, including the ones with Pete Townsend, at Mitch's site.
