Traffic with Les Fumes – Sam Lawson, KZUN-FM/Spokane, 1981

Granny Peters, Phil Dirt, Your Hollywood Reporter and Clydie can all share in the blame for inspiring “Les Fumes – airborne traffic reporter.” It was my attempt at using a character voice on the air. There’s also a “Low Budget” newscast tacked on, and Galen Grant is on duty in the legitimate newsroom.

A side note, the teletype sound effect behind “low budget news” was a recording of the actual old-school teletype machine we had at the station.
