I normally don’t toot my own horn, but the book I've been working on for the last two years is finally out. It's about radio, and the radio show that I've hosted for the last twenty-five years, Crap From The Past.

I even have a link on a large online retailer - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1547272570 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1547272570

I'm kinda excited.

Congrats, Ron! I just added both of your books to my Kindle. Now I'll
have some reading material for vacation. :)

Congrats, Ron! And I really love how the cover of your first book looks like a Columbia cassette from the 1970s and 1980s!

Read thru most of it last night. It's a great read! Even this site gets a mention. I think everybody here would love it. Great job, Ron!

For listeners of Ron's weekly program his show has recently been supersized. Instead of 90 minutes it is now a full two hours. This is one time when more "crap" is good. Thank goodness somebody plays the songs that terrestrial radio programmers and testers insist shouldn't be played.

Thanks, Santi!

We ran at two hours for the first ten years, then at 90 minutes for the past fifteen years. Now we're back to two hours. I hope to continue delivering 90 minutes of above-average programming every week, in my two-hour slot!

Thanks also to those of you that have bought the book. If you did, I'll humbly request that you please post a review (good, bad, or otherwise) on Amazon. The reviews can make or break a tiny publication like mine.
