Straight talk about radio programming, radio advertising, radio production...Well, you get the idea.
What better way to start the weekend than with a quick dose of the late, very great Dr. Don Rose.…

When you post something on this blog, you retain the right to use your words elsewhere.
I get to use your words elsewhere, too: in a newsletter, book, 3-D hologram, major motion
picture, etc. I'm not saying I will, but it's possible.
But you don't get to take the stuff I write here – even if it's in response to something you
wrote – and use it elsewhere.
Just so you know.
Thanks,
Dan O'Day

love that style of announcing , might sneek some on tomorrows show
Do you have more of Dr. Don in action?
Still my favorite line, I heard it on his first day at KFRC: Did you wake up grumpy this morning, or is SHE still asleep??! (Quack Quack — You’ve got a BIG BIG MOUTH! — MOOOOOooooOOOOOOOOoooo!!!)
I loved Dr. Donald D. Rose–”It’s a Rosieeeeee day San Francisco!!! Now smile! He, he, he…” If you listened to Dr. Don for more than 5 minutes you couldn’t help but have a great day.
Do you believe there will be another era in broadcasting where a local-live personality greets the day with enthusiasm?
Will there be another period when people will think that ‘radio’ is important?
While it may be tough to find hope in a brighter tomorrow with talented people connecting with a local audience, it is good to reflect back to when people such as Dr. Don Rose ‘OWNED’ our top-of-mind awareness. Automation and syndicated programming will never be as good as he was!
what a joy seeing another don rose clip. perhaps 1 day we can look forward to the viacoms, clear channels, disneys et al being strictly regulated again, meaning a limit a tight limit on ownership, so radio can spawn more greats like don rose.
until that day, we only have his recorder memory to enjoy….as we surely do. he was ‘sumthin’
