Morgan Fairchild This performer is beautiful, talented and quick plus I know a cool piece of trivia about her. Morgan drove the car in the movie ‘Bonnie and Clyde’, because star Faye dunaway couldn’t drive a stick. Now you know.. Linda Gray If you remember the TV show, ‘Dallas’, then you know about the rocky relationship between Larry Hagman (‘J.R.’) and Linda Gray (‘Sue Ellen’) Were they friends off screen? She tells us.. Vivian Campbell Of Def Leppard I had to ask about his ‘no shirt’ policy.. Tom Berenger I’m in awe of […] - [Radio Daze VW Love Stories](https://thebarrymichaels.com/radio-daze-vw-love-stories/): I hope these commercials convey to you the emotions I was feeling when I lived them with my constant traveling companion-‘The Bug’… 29 Palms With my youngest son Joe.

Thanks to Jennifer Roberts, Helen Powers, Judy Stuart and ‘Hunter’ as co-hosts for their contributions. Anthony Bourdain Funny, intelligent, and a superb smart ass..sorry he is no longer with us.. Joe Mantegna What can I say? My kind of guy. And, one hell of an actor.. John Densmore He was the drummer for The Doors. Great stories and he has a hidden talent..

I have loved seeing this country, (always through the windshield of my VW ‘Bug’) and have embraced all the places that I’ve been privileged to live. There is not enough money on this earth to make me trade what I’ve seen–from the Golden Gate Bridge at dawn smothered in fog to the wonderful stillness of Strawberry, Arizona to driving Route 66 in the middle of the night…you get my point. You are smart enough to read between the lines during this story and you […] - [Radio Daze 4](https://thebarrymichaels.com/radio-days-4/): Down..But Not Out After being fired in Miami, I went to work in the beautiful town of Ocala, Florida. Everywhere I looked, nothing but beautiful horses, lots of room, and, a station that called itself- Z93 FLAME THROWING HITS’! (I’m not kidding. Now, when I think of this, I think Taco Bell. Get it?) I tried to make the best of a bad situation, but the boss at Z93 was at times, insane. I have to be honest here. One day he called an emergency meeting, and in addition to all the other duties we performed everyday, he wanted us to […] - [Radio Daze 3](https://thebarrymichaels.com/radio-daze-3/): My life is already like the Willie Nelson song ‘On the Road Again’. Twelve hours straight from Roanoke,Va.(We still owned a home there and I never moved my family to Charleston. Hell, there was no time!) The only thing that kept me going was hearing promotional announcements between songs for ‘THE MOUTH OF THE SOUTH–COMING MONDAY MORNING!!’, when I got close enough to hear the station. My first thought was that they had hired someone else! Who is this ‘MOUTH OF THE SOUTH’? I later found out, it was me! Whew! I finally arrive in Orlando, collapse onto the bed face […] - [Radio Daze 2](https://thebarrymichaels.com/radio-daze-2/): I was more than a little nervous when I got the call to come to WROV/Roanoke. You have to remember, this was the radio station my family listened to when we traveled from Martinsville to Roanoke for a big day out. One of my fondest memories is all of us piling into my dad’s 1955 Ford, driving to Roanoke for lunch at Lendy’s and then on to Woodrum Field to watch the planes take off and land, and maybe up to Mill Mountain for the zoo and to look out over the Roanoke Valley with the Mill Mountain Star to our […] - [Radio Daze 1](https://thebarrymichaels.com/radio-daze-1/): I had an incredibly happy childhood. Family, friends. A support group that many don’t have today. Hunting, fishing, Boy Scouts, it was ‘All American!’ Best of all, I had a father I could look up to. Big, strong, and a combat veteran of D-DAY. His name was Aaron, nicknamed, ‘Big A’.  Since I was seen with him everywhere, I became, ‘Little A’. I’ve got a sister that I admire and my Mom was every bit as strong as my Dad, a beautiful woman who made a great impression on me. My Mother would tell you, I would announce my next anticipated diaper change into a cucumber, […] - [Barry Michaels Home](https://thebarrymichaels.com/): American Radio Personality. I like the sound of that. . And, it’s a badge I’m proud to wear. With over fifty years in radio, I’ve got some great stories to share in that I’ve been lucky enough to have worked at some award winning radio stations across the United States, and with some of the greatest performers in the business. This is more than my continuing story, it’s the story of anyone who’s ever sat behind a microphone. There’s audio here, from myself and some of my heroes. The villains? They are here too. Virginia during the 1960’s was like a […] ## Optional - [Agent (MCP protocol)](websites-agents.hostinger.com/thebarrymichaels.com/mcp) [comment]: # (Generated by Hostinger Tools Plugin)
