Top of the Tower Podcast #030: Local Radio with Ron Galley, Tom Langmyer
In this week’s special Thanksgiving week episode:
In Boston, iHeart swaps airshifts for its WRKO talk hosts – Retirement for a local radio stalwart, Ron Galley (right), after 47 years at WDLA in Walton, New York; we drop in for a chat – A conversation with Buffalo Broadcasting Hall of Famer Tom Langmyer. After managing big stations such as KMOX, WGN and WTMJ, he’s starting his own small-market ownership group, and we’ve got all the details!
(And as mentioned, here’s the link to the video of our presentation at SBE Chapter 22 last week – my talk starts about 18 minutes in!)
