Spirit of Radio by Andrew Tallackson A few years back, John Landeck- er was promoting his book Records Truly Is My Middle Name with a live broadcast at Galveston Steak- house. Playing a few tunes, signing copies of the book, he’d invited his Chicago publisher, along with a few others in the radio industry, to at- tend. The freedom the legendary radio personality had, to say and play whatever he desired, fl oored his pals “They could not believe it,” Lan- decker recalled. “They said, ‘You play whatever you want from your computer? You have 10 minutes with one of your sponsors? I said, ‘Welcome to Michigan City.’ They couldn’t believe it. They thought it was fantastic. “It is so far away from what is allowed in Chicago. Anywhere, in fact. It’s hard to fi nd another ra- dio station that would allow us to do what we do. In Chicago, it was like having your arms tied behind your back. Here, how long you get to talk, the music you play: whatever you want.” John Landecker. In 1977, Bill- board’s Radio Personality of the Year. In 2017, a double whammy: National Radio Hall of Fame in- ductee and recipient of Indiana’s highest distinction: the Sagamore of the Wabash. Truly, a storied career as a Top 40 disc jockey: part of the radio bible for anyone who reveres Chicago greats like Landecker, Dick Biondi and the late Larry Lujack.

But even before COVID-19 escalated to where it is today, the challenge was, what could we write that hasn’t already been published. The guy is an open book. In fact, he published a memoir, Records Truly is My Middle Name, that contained so many insights, memories, anecdotes and stories, it was a must-have for fans. 3767 PONCHARTRAIN DRIVE, NEW BUFFALO LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! 2 bedroom, 1 bath in the Village of Michiana.

  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.
