Austin Rich:

There's a lot of old airchecks I've heard, from old Soaps in the 40's and 50's, where the ads would say stuff like, "And now, here's something just for the ladies." And at least a couple soaps in the 50's would pride themselves on being stories for housewives.

And by "programming" I didn't exclusively mean KFMB's, but WFMU's meta-programming of KFMB. I was born in San Diego. I have some affection for the place.

We've been listening to Sinatra's turn a radio drama on Dimestore, with his "Rocky Fortune" series. It's pretty good, and Sinatra sort of holds his own. I'm enjoying it, for sure.

Nice! I recently watched a special on the 5th anniversary of the AFI Lifetime Achievement Awards and Sinatra sang a tribute a cappella. It was the 70s, I think.

I think, because he's better known for film and singing, and he really didn't do a lot of acting on the radio, it gets forgotten. But it's a good 20-odd episodes of him doing "wise-guy" dialog. Pretty fun!

My Uncle would get super nostalgic for Wolfman Jack. I guess he would listen a lot as a teen in the late 60's, and thought of him the "height" of DJing.

I'm nostalgic for a DJ I only know as Brother Paul, who had a call-in show evenings in the LA area on a low wattage station. The calls were sometimes heartbreaking. The theme song was Loggins & Messina's lovely "Peace of Mind."

Oh, no, for sure. I've tried multiple times to find/identify Brother Paul. No luck, but thank you, Austin, for trying!

We had a DJ at KPSU when I was there in the early 2000's, DJ Petro, who would sing along with the songs with a live mic, and said he got it from Wolfman. But I'm not sure if Petro was as charming as Wolfman.

This regular WFMU listener (WLSClark) and occasional WFMU DJ included several 60s DJs in his programs. Heres a good example:
