He started off in the mail room, made his way up to the board room and he has been a major influence in radio across three states. Rather than a pilot, he is more of an air traffic controller, plotting the course for the pilots to follow and in his 57+ year in the business, he's seen it all...and that's no BS!! It is a great 50 minutes or so with Brendan Sheedy. Enjoy!
