Cool article about WRIF's voiceover guy

Very cool article MW. I've always thought watching the VO people do their thing was like majic to me, especially when I was younger. I still get a kick out if watching videos of the likes of the GREAT Don La Fontaine. I've also enjoyed watching Chris Corley do his thing over the years. An unfortunate RIP to both of those greats.

To me, the station voice can set the attitude of the station. Also, it seems like they have maybe a little more creative control than most DJs. I identify the RIFF with this dude. A good VO person to me is one of the biggest things for a good overall sound on a station.

Also, a H*** CONGRATS for Pete Gustin for doing what he's doing. He sounds fkkn PHENOMENAL on the RIFF. Also sounds great on Fox TV as well. F' Dave and Chuck, this dude is more the RIFF than those two CHODES.

I think Dave and Chuck did a whole thing with him awhile back. Pretty cool stuff.

I like Pete as an imaging voice for rock radio. I think he's Fox News's main VO artist as well. He also does work for ESPN Radio. I've always wondered what his name was. He's popular on social media too.

I loved both Don and Chris. Chris was my favorite voice for rock and news. I also liked Hal Douglas. He was the voice of many movie trailers and also the voice of the former WB Network and also voiced the '97 Red Wings Stanley Cup film. They are all missed.

VO guys in radio and TV don’t get the respect they deserve. Great article.

I cant believe the TV stations have not picked up this unique and up lifting story . Nice job Pipes !

Pete is cool dude. Worked as Production Director in Boston for over 20 years, mostly WEEI. His imaging gave the station it's identity, along of course with the sports.
