In 1989, California Airchecks video recorded “Lockjock” Gary Lockwood at KJR, Seattle.
One thing that made me laugh watching this was something that is now often made fun of and considered to sound very, very dated.
It’s 8:45 – 15 before 9. Hearing a talent on one of my stations do that and using the word degrees would typically result in a stern rebuke and an eye roll.
Enjoy “Lockjock”
