D'You Know What I Mean

This is one Philadelphia sports fans and sports-talk radio fans won’t want to miss.

On this episode of D’You Know What I Mean?, I’m joined by legendary former WIP Morning Show host Angelo Cataldi, whose more than 30 years in Philadelphia radio helped define an era of sports talk.

Angelo takes us behind the scenes of WIP’s glory days, sharing stories about the people, personalities and unforgettable moments that helped turn the station into one of the most influential sports radio stations in the country. We talk about his relationship with the late Tom Bigby, the evolution of WIP, and, of course, the phenomenon that became Wing Bowl.

And yes—we get into some of the crazier moments from back in the day, including the story of how Ron Jeremy ended up on stage at Wing Bowl.

It’s a conversation packed with Philadelphia sports, radio history, behind-the-scenes stories and plenty of memories from an era when sports talk radio was truly unpredictable.

If you grew up listening to WIP, loved Wing Bowl, follow Philadelphia sports, or simply love great radio stories, this is a can’t-miss episode of D’You Know What I Mean? with Brett Holcomb.

Brett talks to his former WIP coworker, Darren DeGaetano, about Wing Bowl & Old WIP stories.   This is a cant miss episode.  Its a long one but good one.  

This week on D’You Know What I Mean?, Brett Holcomb welcomes filmmaker Pat Taggart, director of the new documentary No One Died: The Wing Bowl Story.

Pat takes us behind the scenes of one of Philadelphia’s wildest and most unforgettable traditions. From outrageous competitors and packed arenas to unforgettable stunts, larger-than-life personalities, and the chaos that made Wing Bowl legendary, this episode explores how a radio promotion became a massive cultural phenomenon.

Brett also shares memories from his years working many of the Wing Bowl broadcasts and talks with Pat about capturing the energy, insanity, and heart of the event on film. It is a conversation filled with Philadelphia sports radio history, behind-the-scenes stories, nostalgia, and plenty of moments that could only have happened at Wing Bowl.
