Eric Bohlen here and I found this thread and just wanted to say HI! I am the Prod Director/Asst. Program Director at Citadel Broadcasting of Knoxville (Tennessee) which is WIVK, WNOX, WOKI, WNML-AM/FM, and WNRX. I've been here 14 years. After leaving 94Z I worked at G105 for a while, then went with Gary Dickson to Pittsburgh (he's still there by the way - he's OPS Manager for WORD/WPIT and you can contact him through
www.garydickson.com), went back to G105, then went to 95SX in Charleston with Michael D (he's a vet now!), went to work with Sandy Smith again this time in Virginia Beach and finally headed to East Tennessee.
Rednecks In Space was originally done for ABC Radio Networks...and it was re-born sometime later as Rednek Star Trek for ProMedia/SJS. The voices on Redneck In Space were Kyle Whitford, Jim Merkel (from Pittsburgh) and me. The voices on Rednek Star Trek were Randy Brooks (Allen Orsini) and Steve Shaw (from Virginia Beach) and me.
To all the Brian and Kathy haters - hey, we did the best we could! And both Brian and Kathy are working in Chicago (separately) so maybe it was MY crappy producing that held them back in Durham! But you have to admit that Boomer Johnson was a good time-filler. (Cecil was the name of my prize-winning pig from Fuquay-Varina by the way.)
I have some audio files from the 94Z days and the G105 Wake-Up Crew Days (both with Bill Jordan and later with Brian & Cathy Cruise and Brian and Kathy Hart)... I'll need to dig that stuff out and share at some point.
