BROTHERS ON THE RADIO! HOLLYWOOD & WILD CHILD! SAVAGE ATTACKS DJs!

At this time I can't think of any other brothers that both made it to NYC radio, except for 103.5 WKTU's SEAN "HOLLYWOOD" HAMILTON & TONY "WILD CHILD" HAMILTON (HOT 103.5 ?). Tony worked in Chicago & Milwaukee. Did not last long in Gotham. Speaking of "Hollywood"...YouTube has "Sean Hamilton TV Publicity Reel" for the viewing.

Tonight 710AM WOR's MICHAEL SAVAGE attacked djs who now do talk shows. Savage stated many of these folks are not highly educated.

I'll pass on SNY TV's new program "LOUD MOUTHS" hosted by ADAM SCHEIN (ex 660AM WFAN host) & current WFAN guy CHRIS CARLIN. I have no interest in hearing what these dudes have to say about sports. I can't take Schein's wining!

Did he name names? Leykis? Miller? Rush?

Oh, and I, too, am miffed that SNY took away the 6PM showing of "SportsNite" for that PTI wannabe.

No names.

Brothers on the NYC radio scale....RICHARD NEER (WFAN, WNEW AM & FM) & DAN NEER (WNEW-FM).

When was Tony "Wild Child" Hamilton in NYC?

I don't see him on the Hot 103.5 web site anywhere.

Where is he now
 
Tony "Wild Child" Hamilton worked part time at Z-100 back around 1987-88.
 
Did Sean fix a contest a few years ago on KTU, where somebody close to him won a trip? If so, why did the station hire him back? He should be banned from ALL radio.

Probably in rehab somewhere! :)

But seriously, he was just as wild off the air as he was on the air. But he was never as disciplined as Hollywood. Unless he matured since then.
 
Thanks for bringing up the name of Tony "Wild Child" Hamilton. I haven't thought about him in ages. I remember visiting Milwaukee in 1984 and hearing him on WZUU. I might even have an air check in my storage closet. He was very hyper and entertaining. For better or worse, no one sounds anything like that on the radio anymore. Today I hear normal sounding people reading quick tid-bits about artists or TV shows.

Speaking of, check this out:

I visited Z-95 back in the summer of '84, and they gave me a folder containing some jock photos.
