Who said radio's gone to hell?
PU....That's who!
Peter King in 62 WHEN's main on-air studio. Control Board is a Pacific Recorders BMX-22.
Incidentally, when Peter's fellow air personalities used to refer to him as "P.U.", it wasn't that Peter had an odor problem, but that he was simply given the nickname "Peter Ulysses" or "P.U." for short, by former midday man, Joe "Wee Wee" Gallagher. The rest of the air staff conveniently found "P.U." to be catchy, much like a good hook in a great song, and began using it toooo....too much and to the chagrin of "The Boss". ...Time for a little reminder! Today Peter lives in Orlando with his dog and two cats... and is often heard reporting on CBS Radio.
