Ron Cameron

[radiofan1974]

Ron was the decision maker for Tim Mcormack and the life he has today

[Momo]

Every time Ron references someone calling him “Ron,” an angel gets it wings.

[Bobbert]

It's all Art's fault that Ron ran over.

Caller #13: new caller from Northville.

That was me, I kinda felt like I could jog Art’s memory about what an out-of-body experience that summer of ‘97 was after the Red Wings won The Stanley Cup. He seemed to read it more like “did he party with the Wings”…which I totally understand he didn’t, as he wanted to make clear he had his own friends! All in all, Art was a great guest today, and a real pro. He gave some good insight to that victory with the all-night radio coverage on DFN story then (people were “lubricated” to say the least!), and I certainly remember partying hard for an entire week until that terrible limo crash brought the collective high to a halt. Too bad, Ron high jacked those memories for that selfish, rambling Tim McCormick story.

I missed the last 15 minutes of hour 2. How did it go from Red Wing celebration to Tim McC/Ron?

Art was telling a story that involved coverage of Michigan-which Art is a big fan of, he talked about Tim Mcormack, which opened up the door for Ron……

Art mentioned that after he was on the radio all night after the Wings’ Stanley Cup clinching victory in ‘97 the first local programming on WDFN was Tim McCormick, who thanked Art for staying on the radio for the people of Detroit & MI. Ron quickly cut off Art and launched into some bumbling story of how he saved McCormick’s career (a story, of course, Art had never heard!).

Cowboy next perhaps

Or a caller from Dallas.

Coincidence that Ron soon thereafter got a call from someone claiming to be in Dallas?! I think not.

Not only did Ron show zero interest in making the acquaintance of his lady producer, but he twice mentioned she was taking the place of the nameless Martin, "the other guy," who was on vacation. Yes, as "Jake from North Carolina" noted, he could learn a thing or two about treating people with whom he works.

[Momo]

Theory about out-state calls: Martin, who's on vacation, contacted different people around the country to call the show, and ask about sports that Ron wouldn't be interested in, and also suggest he treat his co-workers better.

If Martin's so keen to show up Ron, why would he suppress our "stupid" emails?

Never could get stream to work. Of course I miss a legendary show. I hope a Cameronite recorded audio for posterity.

Were these out of state callers legit?

I think so, my theory is that the producer has a show and there callers called in

Other than the Toronto caller, I think they were all (local) plants. I'm guessing friends of the lady producer. And even the Toronto caller was suspect, as he said he wasn't a sports fan. I can see a non-sports fan landing on Ron's show when he was on WDTK, but what's the draw on WPON that would pull him in?!

Just maybe there was an atmospheric anomaly Sunday morning and the 5 watt tea light candle signal of The Mighty 1460 WPON was slathered across the fruited plains from sea to shining sea.
