Back in the 1940s, 50s, 60s, 70s, & 80s, WOR’s Rambling With Gambling, was one of New York’s most popular morning shows. The host was John A Gambling.

He took over the show from his father, John B Gambling, who started the morning show in 1925.

John A. was joined on the show by his son, John R Gambling, in 1985. When John A. finally retired in 1991, John R. took over, until WOR management canceled the show in 2000, after a 75 year run.

In this era, Rambling With Gambling, was a full service AC morning show with lots of information, with the rest of the station being mostly talk. You would hear songs on the show from artists like The Carpenters, Anne Murray, & Neil Diamond.

This aircheck also features longtime WOR newsman, Henry Gladstone, with coverage of fast approaching Hurricane Belle. Longtime traffic reporter & helicopter pilot, Fred Feldman is heard, as well as meteoroligist, Dr Bob Harris. Harris ran into problems a few year after this aircheck, when it was discovered he was NOT a doctor, and he had to stop calling himself, doctor.

After over 40 years working on the radio, I have recorded lots of radio airchecks, and many from my friends as well. You’ll find sound of many radio personalities who have passed away. Lots radio recordings from the 1940s, through the 2010.

We also talk about radio broadcasting. If you happen to have classic airchecks, maybe even of yourself on the air, we’d love to share it here! If you are on the radio, or do voiceovers for You Tube videos, I have tips to make your radio show or video voiceovers better!

In addition to sharing sound from my 40 years in broadcasting, we also share videos about Travel & Cruising. I share tips on how I travel cheaply, so you can do it also!
