Ron Cameron

[Momo]

Thanks, I’ll be tuning in. Ron has referred to Gary as his old producer, but his role was very much like Martin, as he had his own show but also handled the board & screened calls for Ron.

[Momo]

Gary's got his own trivia questions. But he has a toll-free number, so maybe we'll hear from Cowboy.

This sounds like a music show... Any mention of special guest, Ron Cameron appearing?

[Momo]

No. Ron's playing hard to get.

I think Ron had it made at the Patriot. He had a toll free number, good weekend time slot, a decent studio with internet/tv, and his shows were recorded on the internet but he messed it up by destroying the bathroom and was viewed a health hazard (as he claims) and got banned from the studio. WPON is a garbage station with a garbage website.

The Patriot also had a coverage area that reached more than a few hundred people! LOL

Seems to me 1090 would be a better home for the show than 1460.

1460's transmitter efficiency is horrendous; signal strength in my neck of the woods is far below predicted strength. I should be receiving about a 2 mV/m signal during the day; actual strength is probably 0.75 mV/m at best.

Googling John McCullough to see if I could find any confirmation of his passing (I could not), I came across 2020 FB broadcasts of Dialed in Detroit, &, sure enough, heard Cowboy, JJ & Super Rasiday (sp). JJ on one show this summer said how bored he was in this pandemic, noting that Ron Cameron wasn't on the radio.

Thanks! It would've been helpful had I the right spelling of his last name.

Had a busy weekend and missed both of Ron’s shows, never an earth-shattering occurrence, but I do appreciate everyone’s “play-by-play” here. Much more enjoyable than RSizzle’s play-by-play, in-show, of a game on broadcast TV!

I totally forgot about the kids in Dialed in Detroit. Great to hear they are still on and glad JJ is doing good.

Last year in December was Ron did his last in-studio show on the Patriot and then disappeared for about a month after the bathroom incident. Was he the one that unleashed the pandemic? The Patriot might be ground zero.

So did I. How does JJ not know that Ron's on the radio?!

There is reporting that the virus may have arrived in the US last December, so you may be on to something. Ron as Patient Zero. It fits with his general megalomania.

Saw this in another thread about WXYT extending the Red Wings and the Tigers

https://www.radio.com/971theticket/spor ... pTBl2kXSmo

It reminded me of Ron and the sky is falling, the media contracts are going to be done in two (Don't know the significance of two) years and the owners are idiots. I bet you the media deals with all the leagues increase in their next round of negotiations. Too many sports channels and not enough content but Ron has no clue about Amazon Prime or ESPN Plus or Apple TV etc...

[Momo]

Was that Matt announcing the show?

[Momo]

Yes, that’s him.

[Momo]

Will Ron even acknowledge that Matt’s returned?!
