Podcast #1: Mike Olszewski

Remember when we had only three TV channels to choose from? On the first episode of Next Half, Best Half, host Marie Elium is joined by Mike Olszewski, former Cleveland radio host and a co-author of several books about Cleveland radio, TV and music.

Olszewski talks about Ghoulardi, Capt. Penny, Mr. Jingaling and other local celebrities who were TV staples in the ’60s and ’70s . We discuss how and why their success spurred similar programs in TV markets around the country.
