Chicago, St Louis, major sports and incredible collegiate teams. One of the gentlemen I worked with was Doug Wolf. Here's where it gets interesting. Doug is still there, at that very same station some 42 years later! His is a wonderful story and he's really quite the gentleman with a colorful history in the community. The story will take us both back to a time that is very much long gone and some shared stories I'm sure you'll appreciate. it's a fun little history lesson and some entertaining discussion.
