should go like this ,no guests,no callers,no sponsors,no real emails.Just Ron answering fake emails and talking about himself to an audience of 5 to 10 listeners.
This is a punctuation nightmare.
Acting on a tip. The grammar police have made an arrest.Charged with creating a punctuation nightmare is buzzboard poster Kidcat .If convicted he faces losing his posting rights for up to a year.

That was pretty funny when a caller asked Denny which of today’s MLB pitchers reminded him of himself: of course, Denny said JV!!!???

I think that - & the looming new co-host - was just part of the fertile imaginings of the author of Ron's X page.

So does anyone who frequents this never ending stream of reverence for All Things Ron ever call in to the show?
I think y'all should set up an event. I kid you not. Coordinate a Call-A-Thon. All kidding aside.

Rm04111234, who tracks Al Avila's whereabouts, is also a caller (although he's not been heard from since Ron's return last week; I truly hope he's okay). As was I, some years ago, before being unceremoniously issued a lifetime ban.

I like your idea, Round Six. When Ron's old 9-11 morning show drew even fewer calls than now & he had no access to emails, thus resulting in his reliance on "insurance callers," I tried then to enlist co-workers to call en masse. With each telling Ron how he was their idol, how much they admired him. Alas, my efforts fell flat.

  • The Ron Cameron thread of the Michigan Radio and TV Buzzboard celebrated its 10th birthday, with its most active year ever, increasing its page count from 799 to almost 1700 at year's end. It blasted through milestones that will probably never be reached again in Buzzboard history, including 1 million views; 25,000 replies; and 1500 pages. It even maintained its pace as one of the most active threads on the Buzzboard during two extended radio absences by Ron.

Great 'Year in Review' recap, Bobbert! It's interesting to contrast all the work you've put into this thread with that of Ron's, ahem, minimalist approach to his own show.

Denny just edging out Ray for most guest appearances in '23. Rich Kincaide's last (& final?) appearance was way back on June 4, yet he still tied with Kevin Allen & the Wood(s) Boyz for next most appearances (3). Little did we realize that Alex's January 29 interview would be his swan song. And I'm surprised that - although his ex made the list - the once third most powerful man in soccer never appeared this year. Same with Ken Holland who, surprisingly, would still came on the show even after he left the Wings.

Other than my personal audience with The Great One near the end of the record-breaking '23, my greatest memories were the slur heard 'round the world & Ron being caught unaware the one day his show went syndicated internationally.

Great recap Bobbert

My answer will differ as I will go with favorite interview. Frank Garza, very informative especially for a person like me that’s not a big boxing fan

He was very informative

Coming in second when Ron got his faunkners mixed
Up and had Trish instead of Roger

I agree the out of state call in’s made for a interesting day-he can thank fellow WPON host Lindsey Renee, who has a big following

Any highlights of the year have to also include Ron’s swallowing whole Rob’s insider tip about Al Avila working at a Denny’s … near the airport. And Ron’s mystifying belief that a 1973 color episode of To Tell the Truth was in fact from 1957.
