    1. Sammy! Friend from outa the past, Dave Drui checking in wicha. Yesterday was my last day on the air here in Seattle on a station you probably never heard of for a company you probably have…just wound up 30 years with Salem Media Group. Hearing your bits on KBIG brings me back. Bonneville sold the AM side of KBIG, KBRT to Crawford Broadcasting in 1980 and I ran that station (into the ground!) from ’81 to ’83. Can you picture your old buddy Dave in “management”? Anyway, get in touch…would love to catch up.
