Howard Toole started as a jock in 10th grade in Augusta and quickly earned first-class ticket right after high school. He continued his radio journey at WRFC in Athens while finishing his degree at Georgia, then moved on to Louisville and New Orleans as an air personality and PD. Soon, he switched to sales, and ended up in Atlanta when Plough Broadcasting flipped WPLO-FM to Disco V-103. From there, he worked in Dallas, San Antonio, and returned to Athens as a GM. Along the way, he bought his first station in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Now, he’s settled in Rome, Georgia, as managing partner of a six-station cluster—each station sounding much larger than its small-market size. Howard runs a lean operation, of necessity, relying on a core team plus a network of 80+ voices he can call on when needed, along with modern digital tech and AI voices, including one of his overnight hosts -- AI Gunner. Yup. He is A.I. We'll dive into Howard's unique approach, his use of technology, and hear more about AI Gunner in Wavelengths #30.

He's a UGA graduate who got his radio start in Augusta, then spent 12 years in Houston, 6 in Memphis, then 16 years in Atlanta as Market Manager and then Regional VP for Radio One, and now, he's retiring after an incredibly successful career. He'll talk about his career, the new realities of radio today, and pass on great advice for young broadcasters today. It's all here, in Georgia Wavelengths # 29.

A conversation with Fox 97's iconic morning duo Randy and Spiff…where they spent 14 years right up until the station flipped out of the oldies format. That didn’t stop ‘em, they went on to Atlanta iHeart oldies Cool 105.7, then over to Lite 94.9, then to news talk GST, and finally to WYAY/106.7 when it was doing oldies. A total of 21 years in Atlanta radio, and still as entertaining and funny as ever!
