Terru Grodin, for sheer longevity.

Tom Moore, hands down. Chip Kullick is a very close second.
> Local Host?
I'll concur with Chuck on John Lanigan, though not as of late--he's phoning in a bit.
> DJ?
Anyone on the Sunday Oldies Jukebox (especially that suave, witty, urbane, debonaire, and hilarious Saturday night-Sunday morning guy on from 3am to 6am--he's fabulous!).
And does 2001 count as "recent"? If so, Scott Howitt. And until very recently, Jim Davis.

I don't normally post on this site...but I had to speak on this. I think you're talking about Greg Roth from Hot 101. I know both Greg Roth and JDub personally, and no matter what you think of JDub, I think Greg Roth has some work to do to compete with JDub.
Adam Kirk is very good for being so new to radio. I wonder if he could stand on his own without a liberal in the room to argue with him? Keep an ear on this kid!
Traffic reporter- Rick Abell or Libby Rhodes/Linda 5 Million Last Names. Abell's dry sense of humor adds spice to what can be the most repetitive 30 seconds in radio. Linda's great at on the spot banter with the jocks. Miss her with Don Action Jackson on Majic!
News Guy- Kristine Lane. Sounded really rough when she first came on WHK. Now, very smooth and autoritative. She's got a very sexy voice to boot!
Local Host - Undecided. Kirk & Triv are among my favs

OK...we are talking best air personality in Northeast Ohio, and you tell me JDub and some weekend part-time guy at a has been station in Youngstown are the BEST!?!?!?!?! I am absolutely FLOORED at that statement!
REALITY CHECK: Both those guys have quite a ways to go before they could even be CONSIDERED for best air personality in Northeast Ohio.
With that being said...Kasper and Jen Toohey are my picks

Ya know, I understand you might be friends with the guy, and that's fine...but have you ever LISTENED to his airshift!?
He has OK bits but his voice leaves a little to be desired

Traffic: Pat Butler - good sense of humor.
News: Carmen Angelo - smooth presentation. Darren Toms - good news writer.
Local Host: John Lanigan
DJ: Kasper
Missed: Scott Howitt, Maria Farina(sp), and Rocco (both during their run at The End).
BTW, just curious here, what did Lanigan sound like pre-MJI? Was he talk heavy even back then or was he more of a true DJ?

John Lanigan played mostly music, joked alot, and had guest on from time to time, and the best part of the morning show was when he signed off at 10 AM and Joe Mayer signed on after Lanigan, John would rip and joke on Mayer to where Mayer laughed so hard and you the listener about lost it as well...Great crossover jokes every morning...The good old AM radio days.

Ok Reality Check time, Where did you get the idea that this
thread was about the "Best Air Personality"? The subject line
is Who is your favorite, and that will subjective. Each will
have their own opinion on that.

Is there a picture of Marci anywhere? I'm curious what she looks like. I have no clue what here age is due to her voice. I think the gal that's on channel 5 that you are referring to is Linda Dawson. Really nice lady.
