Avi is on the right in this pic. Longtime talk show host (mentioned prominently in the old book "Talk Radio and the American Dream" by Murray Levin--the book also profiled Howie's mentor, the late Jerry Williams). Ran for Senate GOP nomination vs. Ed Brooke, I believe...started WMFP-TV 62 ("Media for the People") Lawrence which was originally an independent station with old movies and such...filled in for Howie over the Christmas holiday

Avi Nelson is a good replacement for Howie Carr IMHO. He’s very conservative. I still remember Avi from the “Five on Five” television show.

Yes he did mention Avi would be subbing, but, I was hoping that Avi took the day off and the colonel would come in!! Wishful/hopeful thinking! Avi’s ok, I can deal with him but I think the colonel is much more entertaining!

Guess there are some hosts doing best-ofs. Ingraham’s show did
(WNSH Beverly 9-noon, WCRN Worc. 1-3 pm, WTKK Boston 9-mid.)

Col. can be funny but oh that raspy voice. I guess he did get hit in the throat during the war so that could be part of
it (Sandy mentioned that)

How about the unclassy behavior of Umass Amherst last week...faculty and students booing as Andy Card got an honorary doctorate? Man, thats bad, i remember a time when Amherst actually did have class.

Boy, you must be old! (LOL! Nothing personal — I remember when a student wouldn’t dare be rude to an invited guest of the college, or — well, we never found out because no one dared!)
