FOGRPod # 11-Dwight Douglas FoGR Pods: Podcasts from the Friends of Georgia Radio

    • Performing Arts

A native of Pittsburgh, one of Dwight Douglas’s first broadcasting jobs after college was as a video guy for TV’s “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood.” Later, radio successes led him to a job with the ABC O&O radio stations helping revitalize their FM properties.  He eventually ended up at the largest radio consulting firms in the world-- Burkhart/Douglas and Associates-- consulting some of America’s best stations, and working with world class radio talent like KLOS’s Mark & Brian and Howard Stern. Later, Andy Economos recruited him as his VP for marketing for RCS. Now retired, Dwight is now a prolific writer, and has just finished his latest, “True Radio Confessions-Sex, Drugs & Rock ‘n Roll.” In which you will surely recognize people from your radio career. (By the way, Dwight swears it’s a work of fiction!) Here, Dwight and Dennis Winslow talk about radio -- and about the book.
