on the same station, right? And that was in the days when we had AM stations that played music. I well remember the transistor radios on the beach with Cousin Brucie or Dan Ingram playing the top 40 music. There was a third DJ but for the life of me I can't remember the name. But these two are the ones that stand out in my memory.

Edit: I read the first post and now I remember: Harry Harrison!

5. Cousin Brucie Is On WCBS-FM
Dan Ingram was on WCBS-FM for a number of years on the weekends, until last year. So was Run Lundy and Harry Harrison, until they retired.
